@icedquinn@blob.cat I had an TOSlink to 3.5mm/RCA jack adapter and it would completely turn off the optical input for 30 seconds after you started it just to look for a bluetooth device. there was no reason for this to even exist as it's always searching anyways... the only reason I wanted it was because I was hooking to computer speakers and wanted a remote control, which ended up having volume levels I couldn't much use because the volume steps were too big..
I ended up swapping it out with a dumb one that works about as well and just using a 3.5mm attenuator knob

@icedquinn@blob.cat yea but probably reduces the distance by a lot I'd assume

@icedquinn@blob.cat can't you just unscrew the antenna on those?

@icedquinn@blob.cat I was talking about earbud tips mb

the worst part about foam eartips is that they don't last. the ones I have only guarentee 4 weeks
I bought a 10 pack of them

@icedquinn@blob.cat @LunaDragofelis@buff.tomboyfan.club the Chromecast was pretty cool because most cast capable devices require you to open the app, whereas the Chromecast don't give a shit
But still it was doomed to fail because people don't mind using a remote most of the time

I should sleep
Nini :sleep:

@icedquinn@blob.cat @nus@mstdn.social my alarm clock app i bought has an internet radio option which is super helpful since eventually I'll get numb to the sound and sleep through it. the alarm clock app also forces me to walk across the house to scan an NFC tag to stop it

@nus@mstdn.social You can buy an alarm clock lamp but it's not nearly as cool as something that folds up

@icedquinn@blob.cat I have a dishwasher I just have trouble getting to actually put things in there

I need to do the dishes :nko_dead:

@arcana@fedi.layer02.net Thank you for Collecting Coins 🪙

@icedquinn@blob.cat for all the shortcomings of roku it's still one of the easiest interfaces IMO and it doesn't seem to favor one platform other the other, and all the apps are uninstallable, no bloatware.
and when you set it up without wifi it's still a decent dumbTV

@icedquinn@blob.cat there's no option to set the screensaver to just turn off the TV screen once it updates the theme option
This is only on rokuTVs tho

Roku removed the option to turn on the power saver screensaver on their own TVs so the only way to get it is to reset, not connect to the internet, and quickly after setting it, tell it to not download wallpapers and screensavers

Lmao the only thing chatGPT has done has been pad out the word count to waste tokens
Amazing software

I'm collecting a list of config changes to make firefox not hot ass 😭

D I slept for nearly 20 hours yesterday

@icedquinn@blob.cat I would recon it gets to about 50c by touch and I assume that's the charge controller.
It's killed multiple USB C to barrel jack adapters because they immediately fry if you backfeed voltage which is really easy to do when the port is bi directional. I try to use micro USB when practical otherwise using a legitimate laptop charger
