Trump only knows about Habitat for Humanity because Jimmy Carter did volunteer work for the organization and Trump was and is contemptuous of Jimmy Carter.

Just had to order another couple of metres of bookshelves. I've already got a 5m wide, 2m tall wall (see attachment) that does not have space to spare, and another 5 large shelves each a few meters wide... But... The piles of #books precariously stacked around the room have started to topple.
I figured this was a 1 bookshelf fix... That looks to be an underestimate... 2m wide by 1.8m tall will fit in the room and that will leave only a few small book stacks. Which is a problem for future me. Total books currently in this one room, about 2.5k.
This is an extremely good article of all the ways Trump is bringing authoritarianism to the United States of America. With multiple experts drawing multiple parallels to past fascist regimes and also, how it is different this time, particularly with information warfare.

"But most days, working on policy at Facebook was way less like enacting a chapter from Machiavelli and way more like watching a bunch of four-teen-year-olds who’ve been given superpowers and an ungodly amount of money, as they jet around the world to figure out what power has bought and brought them."
What a great surprise! Just got some community perks from the #BSDCafe from Italy!
Those coasters will definitely stay in the living room for guests but one will be taken to the office for my coffee! The stickers probably won't last long - the next #BSDNL conference is already around the corner!

I am really looking forward to this. It'll be refreshing to see something new in theaters.
I'm very sad to admit that Marvel has pretty much run its course with me and I probably won't see the latest fare in theaters. Explosions bore me these days.
@thelinuxEXP Was listening to the weekly news podcast, and enjoyed it as usual, but you might want to look at Kagi's CEO and his attitude to many things. Including utter disrespect to things like GDPR compliance. This is a good place to start: d-shoot.net/kagi.html
Not saying that it's horrible that they might publish a browser for linux, but that the company culture doesn't really match its advertising. I personally stopped my trial with Kagi because of the link above.

Deal alert - Woot has the full size Famicom-style 8bitdo retromechanical keyboard on sale for $64.99. I recently reviewed the NES color theme on the channel. Find it here: lon.tv/i72zg (compensated affiliate link).
Uuuugh, that's dangerous. I was REALLY after that one... but the C64 TKL model won out.
I don't regret the choice (it looks great), but I always think about what could have been. Siiiigh.
Anyway, being the Imelda Marcos of keyboards, I would absolutely spring for that at that price... but I dunno, I love the one I have but man, those keys are tiring sometimes. They give me kind of a fatigue of sorts after a day of working and I end up swapping it out for a bit.
(And I'd love to forgo the A/B buttons and just get regular keys down there.)
Should clarify, that's $6K, not just $6 like the title there suggests.
Back in MY day I was shocked to see $100 sneakers.. .
I guess I understand people paying lots of money for collectable things, but sneakers are just going to wear out through normal use (good sneakers can be worn for years, but they're NOT going to look mint condition for long) and I don't see any potential for resale value.
Fedi, who do you know who's the vintage MP3 player expert?
I'm asking Fedi because I have certain expectations and requirements that only Fedi can fill. I'm looking specifically to hear from That One MP3 Player Person, here.
There's definitely an era of Peak MP3 Player, the same way e-ink ereaders peaked in 2007-2008 in the Just Before Touchscreens Ruined Everything era - there's definitely an aluminium-body clicky-buttoned MP3 player that Just Plays MP3s and is tactiley perfect and beautiful in every way and probably unobtainum except with eBay and patience, and I want to know about it from The MP3 Player Expert.
I want the person with a display shelf full of MP3 players to infodump at me about when the buttons disappeared and everything carcinized into a phone and made them sad. I expect this person will tell me to look for something in the late aughts to early teens and know the part number for a replacement battery. If this is you, please give me a link to your website, and feel free to show me your socks as well because I expect they're cool as hell.

No need to tell me you use your phone for music or tell me the MP3 player that you already own is good, I don't care. I want to find The Vintage MP3 Player Person With Heavily Considered Opinions, and ask them questions that only they will be able to answer. I need the MP3 Player Librarian. I feel in my heart that this person is here on the Fediverse somewhere.
UPDATE: it's only been 5 minutes haha, alright here's what I want: * no apple or apple-wannabe * plug it in and it shows up as a USB drive, I won't install software * takes SD or MicroSD * just plays MP3s * no touchscreen * no capacitive controls * preference: steel or aluminium
UPDATE: ipods are apple, I specifically don't want apple, I already know about ipods thx
UPDATE UPDATE: editing the question to make it more obvious that I'm looking for a person not a thing here, I don't want to know about your MP3 player, I want to know where the Vintage MP3 Player Wizard dwells
UPDATE 4: looking into Sony players around the tail end of the minidisc era, also this wee lad looks like a decent "modern" equivalent: binarydigit.city/a-simple-digi…

We made an aluminium Tangara case! :3
bluetooth seems to work fine, even when face down on a metal surface (??) we love how it feels!
@skyfaller @2d fwiw tangara ships with a milled polycarb case; the 3d prints were prototypes. it's an awesome device that's only going to get way better with time and you can support small creators making something we need in the world right now. the creators are here on fediverse. please think before you say mean shit.
imo you're gonna need to compromise. no device exists with everything you want at a good price with high repairability.
@bnys @skyfaller @2d printed prototypes so early that they predate my involvement in the project entirely!
(and as much as I love my metal tangara case, I kind of prefer the production polycarbonate - I was just curious to see how it would affect wireless functionality)
they even compare it to ancient ipod classic, and the comparison was not really in favor of Tangara, so much that they had to lie about formats supported (rockboxed ipod supports more or less anything you throw at it, except for heavily compressed apes (at least video (5th gen) had trouble decompressing some apes in realtime with its weak CPU, not sure about classic (6th gen)). Well I guess it's cool that it's open source, and that you can buy it new today. But 6th gen ipod from 2007 is a _really_ low bar.
@2d I didn't know about the Tangara, it sounds exactly like my ideal music player. Since it uses a esp32 it should be capable of playing opus and flac as well (a lot of my library is in opus). As others have mentioned, apparently the 3D printed case was just for the prototypes.
@gbrnt That's awesome! A long time ago I investigated doing a wireless low latency audio bridge with ESP32 and found that it's powerful enough for decoding, but not quite for encoding, and I wasn't experienced enough back then, so I didn't pursue it any further.
Probably the 5th generation iPod Color, right before Apple renamed the hard disk one the iPod Classic and cheaped out instead of using the Wolfson DAC? Really good sound, 80Gb hard drive, and if you don't like iTunes/Apple Music you can install RockBox instead and use it to play FLAC as well as MP3, OGG and a bunch of other codecs.
I mean. You probably know I’m an iPod fan girl. A modded mini is my current every day carry. LCD screen you can see in daylight and a backlight when you need it. Mine is also modded to 256 gb. The built in DAC is actually pretty decent, too, more than happy with it.
I haven’t swapped it over to RockBox yet, but I’ve heard very good things!
Except that it uses MTP & uses internal storage, the Creative Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra (they had a way of naming things) otherwise fits your description.
I loved mine until the hard drive failed, and I was not yet good enough at disassembling & reassembling tech to replace it with flash storage.
I'm not The Wizard, because I gave up when the buttons disappeared. But before that, I was quite fond of iAudio mp3 players. The last one I had was probably the U3. If you can find an iAudio model with a metal shell, your other requirements would be met. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IAUDIO
I might not be The MP3 Person but I was An MP3 Person when I worked on the firmware for Rio Karma and Trekstor Vibez in the early 2000s. Cheap players to this day (I have an Agptek A20) tend not to be gapless track-to-track, which is annoying on albums such as Sergeant Pepper or Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld. Rockbox will do gapless for Ogg and Flac but there are mixed reports on whether it can do it for MP3 (which is harder). Get a Trekstor Vibez if you can find a working one, otherwise get whatever matches your aesthetic that you can put Rockbox onto.
The Sandisk Sanza Fuze was my favourite of the old era, had a nice spinny wheel and a microSD slot for expansion. Used a nonstandard port though, and idk how readily replacable the battery was.
I kind of wanna take a look at the Tangara and see what it's like by comparison these days, because I don't know how much longer I can rely on having a phone with a headphone jack and support for Poweramp...
@be personally, I still think the second generation Zune is the best piece of hardware ever made. If it had just had normal file access instead of requiring Microsoft crap and had it come around a few years later when things just started using USB instead of proprietary plugs… so close.
daaang, I've never seen these before! I'm surprised spinning disks could work in a "portable" device! I'd assume they'd just crash all the time whenever you drove over a bump or what not while using it
@be Also a great piece of equipment! I desperately wish Kei trucks were legal in Georgia (but big trucks might run them over, so they're "dangerous" and you can't get them registered, as opposed to the big trucks which are just fine somehow *endless-rage*).
I'm not the expert you're looking for but I wonder if Archos' mp3 players might do you. I saw one a couple of decades ago and it seemed to be built like a tank.
if "vintage" is ok, Thomson/rca lyra m20 series. They are old, probably have to resolder the shitty head Phone Jack. And mine literally slow burned the oled Display. And they run on and eat aaa batteries.
Cowon had some in the lineup. Some of them don't have sd card slots but they appear as normal Drive.
Obscure Chinese like shanling probably has something but i never bought stuff from them.
The later model Sony Walkman players from the late 00s, 10s might be up your street. Something like an NWZ-A15 is great if you don’t mind the WM-Port charging and syncing.
I loved the iaudio and iriver brands back in the day. Excellent sound quality. Supported OGG (and flac i think). Showed up as a usb drive, no software required. Excellent battery life, and some of the first full-featured mp3 players with solid state storage (as opposed to spinning disk)
I tend to feel like "has external storage" and "is built well" are mutually exclusive most of the time, but I also know there's probably some Creative Zen model that bucks this. Would have loved if my old Zen Vision:M did; probably would've replaced the teeny ZIF IDE disk with a CF to ZIF adapter and a decent SD and still be using it if so.
Definitely curious to find out! I've been thinking about similar literally this week so this is timely!
I feel ya. I keep a couple fm transmitter mp3 players in various auto glove boxes that tick all those boxes, buttons, sd card slot, not all of em have 12v plugs. Mine are plastic tho.
@mrcopilot oh wow, I think I had one of these for a while… or maybe a friend did? I had completely forgotten about it until I saw this picture and it made me physically feel the satisfaction of long pressing the little track seek dial in my thumb, but I have almost no recollection of it…
the SanDisk Sansa e200 series are exactly as you describe. my only personal beef with them is the USB connector is weird and huge. they're rockbox compatible but the stock firmware should work just fine for what you're doing
If you want *the* guy, I would reach out to the rockbox forum (rockbox.org). That is a custom firmware project that supports all the best mp3 players from that era.
Peak imo was the sansa e200 series. Small, metal body, lightweight, sdcard, great interface. e280 has 8gb on board + sd card.
All the sd card mp3 players from peak era max out at 2gb sd card support.
Honourable mention: the Frontier Labs Nex IIe. AA batteries, compact flash card with no upper mem limit.
I used a lot of them, starting from CD-Audio players and via Sony's MP3-CD, to HDD-based Sonys, rockboxed ipods, Zunes, Kenwoods (but also looking at all the cowons and archoses and sandisks of course), having dealt with SonicStage, with the difficulties of ZIF->regular PATA conversion in limited space or trying to get CF work as a full-fledged HDD on a software level, moving on through a bunch of flash-based stuff like zune hd, more sonys, Kenwood recorders, Chinese "audiophile" players, until The Perfect One (for me) was finally released and I found it.
The perfect one for me is Sony NWZ-A17 (but anything from A1x/A2x lineup works). Good sound, takes microsdxc, just put audio files on it via regular MSC (shows up as a regular external drive, no software needed), has file-based navigation, nine hardware buttons (no touchscreen or capacitive buttons, although I do miss Zune 120 capacitive thingy), supports MP3 and AAC and a couple of other formats (including FLAC iirc), made of metal, really well built, compact and lightweight, fits good into hand and has generally good design/UX, one charge is good for 50 hours, and the price was good too.
Basically with sony flash players (I'm taking about mainstream flagships here) it's a progression between SonicStage required -> you can just drop the files on it, but the storage is still only soldered -> you can just drop the files on it _and_ it supports memory cards -> touchscreen. A1x/A2x models are exactly at that point in 2014-2015 where they finally gained that memory card slot (meaning that I could finally fit my collection on them), but didn't yet gain a touchscreen (which also came with reduction of battery life time from 50 to 35 hours).
I wouldn't agree with you on ereaders because eink screens keep getting better (if slowly). But yeah, there absolutely is such a thing as peak mp3 player because the (reasonably accessible) digital audio already reached its peak, and the only thing that improves with time is storage, and with microsd slots the storage comes from outside the player.
I miss the days of those sansa e200s with the detachable cap that covered the USB connection. You plugged it in, you dropped your mp3s into it, it parsed the tracks and was ready to play. The rockbox-able clip zips. The days where we had *dedicated* mp3 players that you could put in your pocket and played what you put in it. It was its own device, it didn't drain your phone's battery or took up your phone's storage.
If you yield the touchscreen ban, find a Sony Walkman NW-a55. They’re easy to import from Japan, a tool from Rockbox unlocks the language selector, and it has **hardware playback buttons*.
Legitimately wanted what you’re looking for a while ago, ended up finding the nw-a55, and other than the odd connector (which has ✨accessories✨) it’s a fuckigng fantastic piece of work.
@gnomon I guess at this point the question's morphed into something like "Hey, this thing (binarydigit.city/a-simple-digi…) tries to give a vibe like it's from 2007, what's the actual ebayable device it's trying to be like"
I certainly have Opinions™. You can go extremely old-skool and get these sort of tactile players shkspr.mobi/blog/2002/04/revie… (compact flash, so probably not quite what you want). For many years I had a RockBox which had loads of alt firmware. Also had buttons, jogwheels, switches, inline headset controls. Probably the peak MP3 - but HDD. Excellent devices. If you're looking for something now, SanDisk Clipper. Small, MicroSD, nice enough buttons, etc.
in my opinion the iriver h140 was peak MP3 player. A metal brick that ran rockbox. Mine got stolen in a burglary and I'm still sad. cnet.com/reviews/iriver-h140-4… might have a look at the mechen myself
I might lay claim to that title, or at least I was that person 10 years ago. 😏 Here's a list of devices mostly matching your requests, take your pick: rockbox.org/daily.shtml I'd say any of the Sandisk Sansas are probably be your best bet. They sold millions and generally held up pretty well.
I'm not _that_ person, but I can vouch for Sansa/SanDisk Clip+ or Clip Zip: they - are tiny - have goods DACs able to drive any headphone - support FLAC - support SDHC cards, so less wories about wearing out those old flash chips - support RockBox
They used to be the audiophile player on the cheap, back in the days. Nowadays, the battery and it's ability to be replaced might be a concern though 🤔
“Supports Ogg Vorbis” was how I fell into the weirder alt universe of players (iRiver, Rio). My favorite I recall being the Neuros II. It was a thin DAC wearing an entire heavy spinning laptop HDD as a backpack. The firmware was great, supported every format I threw at it. I still wonder if you replaced the HDD backpack with a modern SD or SSD how it would feel. Maybe my Neuros is still in a box somewhere for me to rediscover and try something like that.
I’m not an expert on the whole field, but I do own a player from that Peak MP3 period that’s a lot like what you described (except I believe internal flash storage only, no MicroSD). Importantly, it supports Ogg and FLAC too. Cowon iAudio 7, purchased in 2008.
the expert name that comes to mind would be w1re, from the s1mp3 (Actions, z80-core) reverse engineering lore. I have a couple of those, but with internal storage and AAA battery. One generation later they did have SD cards and Li-ion batteries, not sure how different the chips are.
Seriously tho I would talk to the rockbox folks rockbox.org/
I think peak mp3 was mid 00s. We have a shitton of sandisks here, because they broke. So no recommendation
I have fond memories of Rio. So I really wonder what kind of tech you want. Flash based, miniature hardware bases? With Video playback, minimalistic like the ipod shuffle?
And bluetooth headsets were rare so old ones might suck.
I'm a big fan of the Sony NW-A45 (there are other models with the same form factor) It fits right into the gap between smartphones and old school mp3 players imo.
It's new enough to have a touchscreen and bluetooth support but old enough to have an SD card slot, physical playback controls, a headphone jack and not run Android. It also can handle bigger music libraries, something 5th gen iPods struggle with.
The only thing I dislike about it is the proprietary dock connector.
Sorry, can't help here - but in this research did you stumble over some good overview of old mp3 players? Not the person, but the de-facto hand-curated list of things? I'd read that 😀

I told someone I know who has a Dot about this. They were "Oh. Anyway...". 😡 Remember when the Dead Kennedy's released an album called "Give me convenience, or give me death"?
