Ah, the classic tale of iPod Socks 🧦—because nothing screams "cutting-edge technology" like fabric sleeves for your obsolete #gadgets. Next, they'll be telling us to set a useragent to respect their sock puppet robots 🤖. Bravo, truly the pinnacle of innovation! 🙄

Och nee… sieht so aus, als bekäme meine Apple Watch 5 dieses Jahr wohl kein Update auf das aktuelle WatchOS mehr. 🥺😦😰

#rant How to waste a nice sunday by installing legacy ProTools 12 on a legacy MacPro5,1 (a fast & reliable multicore video editing machine):
- :neocat_angel_pleading: Install KarabinerElements for that PT keyboard … no, you can't have a ^ on it …
- :neocat_bongo: Avid account deadname removal.
- iLok USB dongle activation hassle.
- :neocat_drake_like: Install ProTools. Studio environment & hardware assignment.
- :neocat_facepalm: Import audio to make PT crash.
- :neocat_drake_dislike: Reboot ffs & retry to make it crash again.
- […]
- :neocat_angry: Realise it took hours to fix countless glitches, configure and complete unsuccessfully.
- Think of Avid forums gonna go like obsolete tech not being eligible for support other than mansplaining obvious capitalist realism b$ by the dudes … :neocat_facepalm:
Should've switched to Bitwig years ago when told by longtime PT users … :neocat_evil_3c: After 10 years I'm done for good with Avid products and licensing politics.

Has anyone done through testing on the affects a modern laptop or iPhone has on proximity and exposure to a floppy disk? I saw a video testing with magnets and an iPhone and the MagSafe had a significant effect on a floppy. Curious if there is any data out there. #digipres #ObsoleteTechnology

Wow, now this is an old computer. Don't see many from the 19th century anymore. #ObsoleteTechnology

BRUSSELS — BOOK LAUNCH — 29.4.25
→ How to make books more sustainable? During this evening, Low-tech Magazine will present our "Compressed Book Edition", this time in Brussels, at Architecture Curating Practice's gallery.
→ Inspired by the image compression on its solar-powered website, Low-tech Magazine squeezed the article catalog of their three-volume chronological book series into just one book. Compressing the content — an editorial and design choice — produces a larger reduction in resource use than printing on recycled paper could ever do.
🕰 18:30 Doors open
19:00 Book presentation and introduction of Low-tech Magazine
19:45 Q&A
20:00 Book sale / snacks & drinks / discussion📌 Architecture curating practice,
et al. architect-run space
37 Rue des Tanneurs / Huidevettersstraat 137
1000 Brussels(talk will be held in english)

#Chromebooks have shown a tendency to malfunction or fail within a handful of years for reasons unrelated to user treatment.
They are difficult to repair, generating harmful #waste, imposing significant replacement costs and disrupting student learning, they added."If schools don't have excess Chromebooks that they can hand to someone, then those kids effectively can't learn the same way the rest of the classroom can."

@outofcontrol You're right, there isn't a big demand! I don't know of anyone apart from Tom Persky who's made a business out of selling floppy disks exclusively. This is a fun listen:

Telefon Hírmondó was the world's first '#streaming' content service started by the inventor of the telephone switchboard, Tivadar Puskás. In its heyday it boasted 6k+ subscribers who listened to news & entertainment via #telephone lines across #Budapest - 30 years before #radio.
