Re:Bose SoundTouch Support Discontinued on Thursday October 09, 2025 @07:18PM (#45534026)
When they discontinued the line in 2021, they explicitly mentioned they would maintain support of the SoundTouch app. I have a Wave IV and thankfully didn't buy into the multi-room playback system, so at least the radio, CD player, and airplay will still work. Except I primarily used it as an alarm clock with a streaming service, so this really sucks.

They gave a consolation prize of 25% off on some Bose speakers, but why would you want more Bose speakers if you can't trust them to keep their word?

I sideloaded Marvel Unlimited so I could read comics on my surface. It was genuinely a great experience, because its the biggest tablet I own and the android app was far better then the web app. Rip WSA.

Especially since moving to SDK-style projects, I haven't even thought about assembly bindings in a long time. I've come to really like nuget.

Capital One credit cards have the virtual card feature built-in. You can use the Eno extension to use them. It even allows for scheduled lock outs of the specific virtual cards. I use it for every subscription service I use.

Same here. I love using pwsh 7 on windows, but on Linux it was a whole different experience. Granted I was trying to use it on an Arch instance, which isn't technically supported, but I couldn't even get PSGet or PsReadLine to work. However, I was pretty great to run the same scripts cross OS with basic commands like Invoke-WebMethod/Invoke-RestMethod

If that was true, then "Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://appleid.apple.com -UserAgent '(Linux)'" would return a 200 status, but it returns a 502 Bad Gateway
