    > The average consumer is basically a vacuum cleaner. Yeah, this has been the hardest pill to swallow, as a creative and person that enjoys art. They know it's all least-common-den…

    I mean, I could take an amplifier, my speakers and my turntable all with a big battery station anywhere I want to play records. Less convenient, sure, but "I can take it with me!" …

    If only; you can definitely get "audiophile network switches" which provide a cleaner sound when you pull your music from Roon over them, or something. Audiophiles are the easiest …

    > Samplers and grooveboxes absolutely play music by themselves. I disagree. You cannot take your Akai MPC out of the box and ask it to play music. You have to load samples, you hav…

    Autologin is trivial to set up on most operating systems. There are solutions for using CEC to control your television as well. I'm not a programmer, but I was able to set this up …

    This reads like a kneejerk reaction to the title, which I understand. I think it's deliberately written that way to draw you in, but I get how it could be upsetting. Her point isn'…

    I don't turn them off entirely, I kind of enjoy the feeling of momentum animated elements can provide, but I definitely do go in and speed them up massively. I find that when a pho…

    I purchased an iPhone 15 a few months ago and ended up making this discovery myself. CarPlay would refuse to launch unless I enabled Siri. I didn't do any of the Siri setup, or any…

    It seems to me that anyone going out of their way to compare current prices against prices from five or more years ago to adjust for inflation is not the average consumer, and shou…

    This is a really interesting thing to think about. English is my mother tongue, and I'd never really considered this, it's always just been part of the language. If I ask my partne…

    Ah, okay, that makes your original comment make more sense. Thank you for the clarification.

    I don't understand the point you're trying to make here. If you don't understand, you aren't smart enough to and shouldn't try? If you learn slow, just stop because you're... slowe…

    I am so sorry to piggyback on someone else's comment for this, but this thread has piqued my interest in what I can do to de-smart my 2021 Kia Forte LXS. Any chance you can get the…

    It was a big enough deal that Nintendo put out advertisements in 1990 [0], asking people to not use "a Nintendo" to refer generically to other video game systems, specifically out …

    I believe they meant "why people are so up in arms about the developer being so strict about enforcing their trademark," not "why are people upset that the port author is being dec…
