I’ve had one of those (battery died, unfortunately) and if you’d look at its files, you’d notice that they are organized in a different structure than what an MP3 player might expect.

iPod_Control\Music’s sudirectories might contain some songs, but the filenames are hashes (corresponding to the entry in the iPod db). The metadata and the contents are perfectly fine, and you can play the file yourself via a different player (you can probably test it in your computer).

I suggest you just connect the iPod through the 3.5mm output audio jack or find a 3.5mm audio output to Bluetooth transmitter adapter.

EDIT:

WTF. I triple posted. My bad. I deleted the two others, also corrected some minor typos and mistakes.

I only got to know this because of an XKCD comic.

IDK why, but I went in expecting someone rewriting the software for PS1 in Rust.

I’ve played Simutrans on and off ever since the mid 2010’s. I’m not any good at it, and usually play it without regard to a lot of its mechanics (especially managing finances), but I’ve spent countless of hours just connecting communities and cities with over-engineered roads, rail systems, ferries, and airplanes.

No problem. I actually discovered this via an entirely different route, and it can really be frustrating sometimes.

KDE Plasma is so powerful and provides a metric ton of options. However, a lot of them are lying “hidden” like this. Still, kudos to KDE Plasma for having these options be configurable via a GUI, in a more or less logical place.

In the KDE systems settings, go to “File Associations”.

From there, you’d be seeing a tree of “known types”, go to “inode” and then “directory”, you can add a new program by clicking “Add…” in the “General > Application Preference Order” area.

What’s happening here is that you’re adding a program to handle the “inode/directory” mimetype. Because of that, this change isn’t limited to Konsole, but will also affect other programs.

J’ai utilisé LibreWolf et il a bien fonctionné avec Firefox sync. Si je me souvenir bien, il faut activer (permettre) Firefox sync dans les options. Maintenant, j’utilise Floorp. Il, également, bien fonctionne avec Firefox sync.

(Désolé pour mon mauvais français.)

I have used LibreWolf and it works well with Firefox sync. If I am remembering correctly, it must be enabled in the options. Right now, I use Floorp. It also works well with Firefox sync.

(Sorry for my poor French.)

Thanks for the head’s up. I’ve switched to IronFox just earlier.

Getting it into my phone wasn’t as straightforward as I expected. I first failed to find it on Fdroid. Then I tried toinstall it via Obtanium, but somehow failed. A bit of more research gave me Fdroid repository link that allowed me to finally install it. Everything after that is a breeze though.

Moving my collections from Mull to IronFox had to be be done manually though (or maybe I just didn’t find out a better way to do it), but it wasn’t at all painful.

Thanks for the head’s up! I’ll take a look at IronFox and see if it fits my existing set-up (syncing from Linux/Windows PC to mobile). Again, thanks!

Not who you’re asking, but I’ll answer nevertheless.

I’ve jumped from vanilla Firefox, to Librewolf, and now to Floorp. I’ve also played a bit with Zen. In all of them (except Zen, which I didn’t go to the process of connecting my Mozilla account), my Mozilla account connected and synced just fine.

I also no longer use vanilla Firefox mobile, but moved on to Mull. I am able to sync my stuff from Floorp to Mull and back without much trouble.

EDIT:

Thanks to a couple of people, I was informed that Mull is now unmaintained, and that IronFox took its mantle. I’ve switched to it just earlier now, and syncing works there too!

They certainly exist in Ikea here in the Philippines. I’ve been there a few months ago and the free pencils and paper tape measures (rulers?) are still there and being used.

I’ll add another datapoint. I’ve had to do some effort removing/disabling OEM bloatware and adware on my Xiaomi phone.

To be fair though, I bought it because it has good specs for its price, and I was already aware of all the bloat and adware that came with it. The first thing I did after unboxing the phone is to just excise all of that shit.

Global version from the Philippines, if you must know.

KDE themes are a mixed bag for me. On one hand, they can potentially provide theming for little to no effort on my part (provided I do find a pre-made theme to my liking), but on the other, I had more luck with mixing and matching (and a lot of tweaking) different theme components (that is: color theme, application style, plasma style, window decorations, icon theme, cursor theme, etc). It’s a lot of work, and the result might not exactly be coherent, but you can really tweak quite a lot.

I haven’t really tried emulating the win7 look and feel by customizing KDE Plasma, but I think it’s possible. Someone in this comment chain claimed there’s a Win7 theme available, albeit not pulling it off perfectly. I guess that can be used as a starting point.

KDE Plasma + Klassy can do that. I think you can pull off a Win7 look with just those two.

KDE Plasma can get you far with its customization options, and Klassy adds more customization on top of that, and adds the translucent/transparent effects you need to emulate the Win7 look.

Currently using Floorp as my default browser after using Librewolf for quite a while. I tried using Zen Browser and I thought I might be won over. However, I don’t know if I’ve just spent more time customizing Floorp, and haven’t explored Zen Brower’s customization options, but they give me slightly similar, but also fairly different vibes. Maybe I ought to give it another spin and refine my thoughts.

As far as my last go at it though, Zen and Floorp gave me similar, but also fairly different vibes. Zen is more sleek minimalism in vibes, Floorp is more maximalist. With the current (??) design trends and fashion turning towards sleek minimalism, Zen kinda has the upper hand here.

And, yeah! Floorp a name that isn’t doing it any favors. Kinda makes it memorable tho in a weird kind of way.

It depends on what you need on a terminal. If I just wanted a terminal, I’d go with Foot, but Konsole (on KDE Plasma) might be a good all-around solution.

For whatever it’s worth, I use (up until fairly recently) KDE Plasma on Arch, and it’s pretty much fine. There’s some hiccups especially after a big update such as KDE Plasma 6, but it’s a smooth ride so far.

If the KDE Plasma developers support an Arch-based distro of their own, and package stuff for this distro with care, I think it’d be a better experience, but I am guessing not by much compared to KDE Plasma on base Arch.

Not too sure if they outright lied, but I suppose we can say that they used the change to make their drives seem larger!

That’s why I wished computer people had used a prefix system distinct from the SI ones. If we’re measuring our storage devices in yeetibytes rather than gigabytes, for example, then I suppose there’s less chance that we’ve ended up in this situation.
