I spent days trying to get my Hiby M300 to stop stuttering when playing music in Poweramp. What finally worked was reformatting my SD card with a different file allocation size. Apparently even a modern Android DAP can struggle with the larger default allocation size.
how is it so hard to make a music player that does not shit itself when trying to play music

As soon as I find a music library manager/player that doesn't suck ass, I'm hoping to move to Linux.
All arguments in favor of Windows over Linux are one of these:
1. Still need Photoshop or whatever (the valid one)
2. Based on decade-old info and/or jokes
3. Blaming issues with Linux on Linux users while treating the same issues on Windows as an unpleasant inevitability, like wasps or earthquakes

People are dunking on this, but I would be confused if someone waltzed into their interview with an iced americano. It wouldn't be disqualifying, but I would wonder.
I’m sorry, but if you bring an iced coffee - or any damn beverage at all - to a job interview, you’re disqualified. It’s not hard, people.

Greatest trick AI leaders have pulled is convincing many people—especially influential people in govt, media, and business—that their software is intelligent, independent, yet never culpable.
Humans build it, humans deploy it, but no one bears responsibility for the things that happen when they do.

over the past few weeks several AI evaluation/cybersecurity experts have explained how what's happening is a result of human incompetence rather than "AI going rogue". I'm begging the media to show a shred of journalistic integrity and stop parroting what altman or amodei say
An OpenAI system has gone rogue again – and it is the most panic-inducing yet

I'm not much of a Pokémon person, but my son is & trying to buy him cards at retail prices has been nigh on impossible the last couple of years, and I refuse to pay scalpers for anything. So it warms the cockles of my heart to see so many of them having a full meltdown about the recent set. Enjoy!!
