  • I prefer an MP3 player over my phone. Here is the one I use. Why I like this one:

    • Dedicated device designed for music.
    • Hardware designed to play high quality music. (Think using Ubuntu vs Ubuntu Studio for music production)
    • Dedicated buttons instead of all touch screen.
    • More options for integration with other devices or systems
    • No distractions. Phones nowadays demand our attention for every little thing. Every app, no matter what it is, has notifications.
    • The Bluetooth is better.
    • You can literally hear the difference in the quality of the music if you use good quality headphones/ear buds. The same song, same file, will not sound the same if it’s a good quality FLAC.






  • I’ve got a Nextcloud instance that I’ve run for a few years. Love it. At home I have an Odroid H3+ with 64GB of ram running Openmediavault. Got about a dozen containers running on that. I need to play with it more and use that ram. I did try to get Boinc running on it but it, sadly, kept shutting down. I’ll have to find a another way to contribute to science.
