Truly harrowing read, puts your petty life problems in perspective.
I agree, actually it’s quite a turning point for me because I’ve always used Windows and have tried to persevere with Windows 11, but more often than not I’m feeling let down by it.
This has happened to me and it’s causing me a lot of headaches. Haven’t found a solution yet as I’ve not had the energy to figure it out.
Do you have any recommendations? Or must-reads in the genre?
Interesting, however, I have experienced ringing in my ears after getting home from clubs/ loud music events only to wake up in the morning and have my hearing back to normal.

Not sure how ‘temporary tinnitus’ can be explained by this theory.

I’ve just recently got back into it again with a small controller after having a break for a decade, and am having a great time, I started with vinyl then CDJs.

I’m using Beatport Link for my music which is incredible, but it doesn’t match vinyl shopping and really getting to know your tracks, as I already have 200 songs in various playlists and barely know the names of any of them.

I found this absolutely hilarious and I’m not entirely sure why, just the tone of the instructions as if it’s an ordinary thing to make in an afternoon. Brilliant.
For anyone looking for further reading on the subject, this article popped up on hn a few months ago which I thought was fascinating:

I love this idea, it made me wonder about the difference in efficiency between wired and Qi and apparently it’s not too far off: https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/state-of-wireless-charg...
