Anyone that has successfully paired a Sony Ericsson W890i with AirPods Pro? It finds the AirPods but it will not pair for some reason. #OldTech #SonyEricsson

I'm using an iPod classic on my old HiFi amp, and I have the impression that it has a pretty good DAC 👌

🔈 Haut parleurs à l'ancienne mais encore bons !

J'avoue que je ne m'attendais pas à ce que ces enceintes vintages à fentes de bois sonnent aussi bien. Souvent, ça vieillit très mal, les haut parleurs !

I'm after your comments to feature in a video this year (coming 11th Dec), looking through the '84 Dixons Christmas catalogue. Any memories of special toys & tech you got for Christmas around that time, or of Dixons in general (or any electrical stores you remember for that matter) are welcome.
Thanks in advance! 📺🎅

What kind of savage would drill larger holes in the PCB of an old Walkman in order to replace its unobtainable jack plug with a modern model?

Apparently, me 🔥

📺 Un Watchman modèle géant !

Super content d'avoir trouvé un grand modèle de Watchman de chez Sony, cette ancienne TV cathodique à plat portable. Mais... il va falloir la mériter en la réparant !

What’s one piece of technology you feel nostalgia for, even if it wasn’t "better"?

Not the stuff that objectively improved your life.

The stuff that felt different: slower, stranger, more alive, more yours.

I want to hear the weird answers too.

Can you play a (very) old 78rpm record with the claw of you fursuit?

Yes, you can: IT WORKS!

Done it on my last furry video XD

Estava conversando ontem com um amigo sobre filmes antigos em DVD e lembrei de um bem peculiar que tenho aqui: "Corra, Lola, Corra" (Lola rennt / Run Lola Run, 1998): o disco não tem rótulo, porque ele é gravado nos dois lados (dual side). No Lado A, está o filme em formato de tela Widescreen (1.85.1); no Lado B, em Fullscreen (4:3).

Fora este, acho que só tenho o "U.S. Marshals: Os Federais" (também de 1998) neste formato. São de uma época em que a maioria das TVs ainda era de tubo, num aspecto 4:3. Para que a imagem ocupasse a tela toda, o filme também teria que estar neste formato; se fosse 16:9, ficavam as famosas "faixas pretas" na parte superior e inferior da tela.

Isso gerava uma certa controvérsia entre o público leigo e o cinéfilo: os primeiros queriam maior aproveitamento da tela da TV; os segundos argumentavam que, na verdade, o filme em Fullscreen era o incompleto, pois cortava as laterais da imagem para caber no formato 4:3.

Acredito que este disco tenha sido uma boa saída para agradar gregos e troianos, desde que tivessem a ciência disso e conseguissem enxergar suas minúsculas indicações (ver imagem).
