I sometimes remember my early childhood when I got to buy my first Totally Legal Music CDs but I had no way to play them in my room.
So I did the most logical thing and used the family Hi-Fi to record them onto tapes and listen to them on my handed down alarm clock/cassette player combo unit.

I must be one of like, five zoomers who got to do some ridiculous media fuckery like this.

I shudder to think of what happens to nude pics people send on Discord.
Having a permanent CDN even after deletion is eerie.

At least the R4 adapter never dips below 10.

Update: the original SD card is either corrupted or the readers are Just Fucking Shitty.
It did the thing of dying mid-transfer even when only reading from it, and now copying to a native SD card slot on another laptop I had.

So I now have to use either the adapter that came with my DS R4 (which is surprisingly reliable!) or my cool USB-C 3.0 hub thingy.

The worst part is that the hub's controller seems to be horrid.

Although the whole reason I jumped to using rsync is that Windows was spitting some weird errors when transferring the games on it.

Turns out the two microSD to USB adapters I had are identical as far as the kernel is concerned and they sometimes drop out or disappear mid transfer.

I just hope I haven't corrupted anything, lmao.

I cannot believe I started trusting command line programs more than GUIs. 10 year old me would say that I was nuts.
I'm doing some Switch game transfer shenanigans to a larger SD card and holy shit the Windows Explorer just feels alien to me.
rsync just looks Cool.
And I feel like it does more for data integrity than Explorer (though tbf I haven't read up on that).

Love how the "Open System Settings" link in the Slack Linux app links you to an ms-settings:// URL

It also refuses to let me enable only 5 or 2.4. It's both or nothing.
Thing is, if I do some HTML fuckery in the settings page, it's a valid config, and the AP indeed only has the 5GHz band enabled.

I hate consumer networking equipment. So goddamn much.

Sorry, 160. But still, what the fuck?!
I can see the activity LEDs flash on or off as SOON as I click the damn button.

Is there such a thing as a 5GHz only Access Point / Range Extender thingy?

I bought a D-Link router that has Wireless and its options are absolute bullshit. I cannot enable ONLY the Wi-Fi.
If I do I cannot manage anything else and its stupid IP addressing creates another subnet and if I manually change it, it clashes with the existing router/DHCP server.

It also takes 180 (!) seconds to apply settings like disabling WAN.
Fucking hell, man.
