It seems to also have american stations, I’d recommend you still give it a try.

I was never in a situation where I had to choose which fliphone to buy, but most don’t have a normal headphone jack, with a decent number of them also using a fully proprietary headphone port. So I guess I’d look out for it having a normal USB connection and ideally a fullsize headphone jack, or at least one of those smaller diameter jacks.
I don’t know its source for stations, but Transistor has direkt links for many German radio stations and probably other regions too.
I still vastly prefer FM, DAB or Satellite radio, but when those aren’t available Transistor is a nice alternative.
I believe Blurays are still a very good medium for long term data storage, like a cold offsite backup.
Same! I’m lowkey tempted to get a fancy one now, but deep down I know it just isn’t worth it.

I use this app for scanning documents, I just tried sharing a picture to the app and running OCR on that picture, which also worked fine, so it should also fit your usecase.
Damn even though you explained the abbreviation I still read it as Wife Approval Factor for a second and was very confused
If you care to minimize Standby power “comfortably”, usually libraries or power companies will let you borrow an AC Power Meter free of charge.
You can use that to inspect your various devices Standby Power. For example I have an amplifier that pulls nearly 15W in standby, since finding out it lives on a smart plug.
However my TV pulls less than 1W, and at that point I prefer the convenience of just being able to use the remote to turn it on.
(Also keep in mind with the smart plug solution that the plug itself will pull a little bit of power too, this will pretty much always be <1W though.)
If your hate only goes towards touchscreens and not having physical buttons, Mazda is (or at least was) very anti-touchscreen. I haven’t done any research on their current stance or if they have good EVs, but a neighbor of mine was really happy with his Mazda ICE car for having a button for everything.
It’s not a full car or even entertainment system, but comma.ai is an opensource autonomous driving software. Last time I looked into this was a few years ago, but basically for most newer cars you can rip out the adaptive cruise control, and effevtively replace it with autonomous driving. Either powered by certain supported phones or dedicated hardware.
I can one-up that: I bought Java Edition around 2016, claimed the free Bedrock license in 2017, then claimed the other license for each of my original licenses when the accounts merged. I’m still surprised that that worked lol
In that case you can try adding before:2023
or similar to your search
You could try getting a Raspberry Pi Zero together with some kind of SPDIF output card, but that will probably go over $30.
I have no idea what pricing is like, but you could possibly try getting a used Logitech Squeezebox player.
If you’re desperate to stay on the cheap and don’t mind BT quality, you could also install Snapcast on an old phone, enable the Snapcast player provider and then use the phone to connect to your speakers over Bluetooth.
Imo it looks to be very bloated for what I want. I don’t need (or necessarily want) a GPS track for the whole journey, but rather just start and endpoint. I intend to tell the distance from my cars odometer.
Also I already started making my own app by now anyway and I’m far too committed to consider other options lol
Hm using Tasker for this is actually a really good idea, thanks!
Yeah, I would just use Connected to Car BT?
I have so many ideas but so little time to properly look into Kotlin and Android dev :/
Some other ideas I had:
Not quite, it stands for Quantum-Dot: https://www.samsungdisplay.com/eng/tech/quantum-dot.jsp
Under the hood it’s also way more similar: LibreOffice uses the odt format internally (and converts docx to it on the fly, sometimes leading to some formatting weirdness). OnlyOffice on the other hand uses docx internally, meaning better compatibility with MS Office (but also some weirdness with odt files).
(I’ve used docx and odt as placeholders for all the other formats here, like pptx, xlsx, etc.)
I bought an LG TV, connected it to the internet once to download Jellyfin, blocked internet access directly after.
If you’re cool with connecting it to the internet once, I’d recommend LG, the Magic Remote is light years ahead of the competition.
Other than that, just get any OLED TV and don’t give it internet access (or one of the new QD-OLEDs if you have the money for it).
We always freeze all our bread, we don’t eat it fast enough for it to not go bad (is this a weird take??).
But yeah thawing bread in the microwave is roughhhh, we either use a toaster or just let it thaw at room temperature.
