Any remedies for this?

Earbuds vs on ear headphones.

What do you prefer?

>>107200851
I prefer on ear headphones mainly because my left ear-hole is a weird shape and earbuds/plugs have consistently left gaps and even slipped out. To hell with the hair/head dent, I say.

>>107200851
Earbuds. I like IEMs, cheap and works better than most headphones. Blocks out more sound than a headphone. No sweat. No ear fatigue from the headphones pressing on your ears too long.
It doesn't look as 'cool' but it sounds way better, comfier for long periods of time, don't have to worry about batteries (unless you get a wireless one), and relatively inexpensive.

>>107200920
on ear headphones in have bigger speakers but earbuds are inside the ear so the sound is closer. I recently tried some not very expensive wireless earbuds and it sounds so strong that I can't turn the volume up too much. The thing with these wireless earbuds is that once the battery don't maintain the charge they are dead but hey if they are not that expensive, they sound great and they last like 4 or 5 years because I'm not going to used them too frequently... it's fine for me.

>>107201006
Get wired then. That's why I prefer wired IEMs. I don't have to deal with batteries. If I need to move around in my room then I use my speakers. If I'm in front of my PC for any length of time I use my wired IEMs.

>>107201025
At home I use wired ones the wireless is for street. I think that they will last me many years because I will use them like maybe 2 times/week and not too much time. And the battery fully charged lasts many hours, long enough for the maybe 1 hour that I will use them on the streets while walking or running.

I need an OS that works like Windows 7 used to, but doesn't have a lot of bloatware attached to it.

>>107200851
I prefer on-ear foamies if I don't need isolation. Otherwise earbuds. People who exercise in headphones are deranged.

>>107201235
>People who exercise in headphones are deranged.

Because they are uncomfortable due the sweat or what?

>>107201257
And they smell. In theory they don't have to, but they do.

I have a problem with this 4chanx userscript on Firefox causing severe lag in using large threads. I have to refresh the page to get it working as normal again, shortly after which it starts lagging again. I didn't experience this issue when I was using it as an extention - rather than a userscript - on Chrome, and have also noticed occasional lag when typing in other areas or pages on Firefox that I don't have a userscript for. I've also tried force disabling accessability and hardware acceleration to no effect. Is there anything I can do? I'm not going back to Chrome.

I tried looking it up on gsm arena and a few other sites but no one had a good answer. what has a better battery life the original Pixel fold or Pixel 10?

I have a retarded amount of money and materials, but I only ever use green bandages and rechargers, and sell the surges/blue bandages

what software should i use if i want to have a go at removing a trial countdown from a windows application? i've done it once before a long time ago, but i don't remember what software i used for it

Any ways I could create an email that is untraceable to me, guerrilamail doesn't work, im using it to sign up for ai chatbots

>>107200851
Over ear headphones for maximum sound quality.
Earbuds / IEMs for on the go or plane flights (ANC) or if I were to do gym stuff which I never do. Otherwise, at home and for serious critical listening sessions, over ear headphones.
Make a new /hpg/ thread.

>>107200851
Earbuds are better for me since im homeless and my bags are heavy enough for me to deal with, the only issue i've had is that mine are short so i sometimes accidentally yoink them out when playing with the stray cats

>>107202345
The pixel 10 has a better battery and doesn't have to power two displays, so it will likely last longer without needing a charge. Especially if you customize your settings to reduce the display refresh rate and background apps refresh.

How do I make sure my GPS trip logger doesn't hibernate when my android phone is locked?

>>107203874
Tinker with the app settings? Are you using android? What version of android? Apple? Which iOS?

I have two monitors. I have different windows in each monitor. If I turn off a monitor, how can it make it so every window in that monitor gets moved to the only monitor that has power?

>>107203874
- turn off power save, osmand which i use for gps logging will immediately lose gps if the screen is locked on power save
- may need to exclude the app from battery optimisations

>>107201396
use 4chan-xt

webhosting noob here. How do I protect my sites from chatbots scraping it for any and all content?

How do I make sure Netflix works on both my TV and my parents' TV? Both at different addresses of course.

>>107204370
Does it depend on your payment plan? I suppose you could try hosting a VPN/VPS and then configuring either your router or their router to share the IP, depending where you have the host server located at.

>>107204370
I'm talking out of my ass, and have never tried this, but what about a private VPN like tailscale? I would assume it'd spoof some location that looks like they're at the same location.

>>107204391
>>107204400
I've been thinking about a VPN, but my parents are boomers and if anything needs to be set up they'll be completely lost. I'm trying to find a way to trick Netflix into thinking I'm just a uni student traveling or something. Everything was fine until recently, now netflix requires you to choose a "household".

>>107204419
Well, you would naturally need to set it up for them. I don't suppose you're both using Roku devices? If you link the netflix account to the Roku account and then claim ownership of the devices that are logged into the roku account, I imagine that would work as well.

>>107204419
Yeah it might be a bit involved, you'd probably have to have their router configured to that VPN somehow, so that their roku or whatever they use automatically sends all traffic through that 100.0.0.0 type IP address. I use it personally but on my devices not via the router so I don't really know. Good luck anon, netflix is fucking ass these days anyway.

>>107204448
Amen; Wednesday can't keep them afloat.

I'm starting to get hungry. Should I eat the half sandwich I made two days ago, or start prepping some lemon chicken?

>>107204503
Leave the sandwhich out for a minimum of 4 hours at room temprature before eating it. The bacteria adds flavor.

Are AI IDEs like Cursor, Windsurf actually helping developers in coding?

>>107200851
Earbuds while sleeping, neckband earphones for regular consumption

>>107204522
Bet; It's corned beef though, so I should probably leave it out for 10 hours just to make sure, by which time I will have already had the lemon chicken and will have to make another sandwich, so it's really a win win. Thanks anon, you're incredibly helpful and wise.

>>107202551
Doesn't Protonmail do that?

>>107204536
Food poisoning makes me more productive honestly.

>>107203874
Have you enabled background usage in settings ?

>>107204548
Your bowels perhaps.

>find an nsfw image
>try looking up the source
>all of the websites that host the image are so filled with ads that ublock rejects me from the website entirely
what am i supposed to do about this? turning ublock off seems like a bad idea but all the websites that host it are shady porn sites so i can't click anything without landing on an ad.

obviously can't show the image but i think linking to the yandex results shouldn't be against the rules.

Works for me

>>107204711
just checked on chrome and it looks like firefox was the problem all along, nevermind then

>>107204772
Works for me on firefox

>>107204876
well then i have no clue why firefox is being a bitch on my end. guess i'll just have to use chrome whenever i run into this issue

Does anyone here know how to input niconico verification passwords into yt-dlp? The command prompt doesn't let me type anything into it.

>>107203934
It should happen automatically on a decent OS with a decent monitor. My Kubuntu behaves as you described with a Samsung monitor.
This being saidmjtdo, fuck MSI monitors.

>>107204573
Are you on windows?

>>107204085
captcha, especially for small sites.
proof-of-work (like Anubis) for larger sites.

>>107204529
Every company that claims to be using AI coding assistants successfully just so happens to be selling AI coding assistants, so I can't trust them.

>>107205415
Are you sure it doesn't let you?
Maybe it just has echo disabled. Type the numbers followed by Return.

>>107204573
I really like this image. Do you mind if I save it?

>>107205489
>Every company that claims to be using AI coding assistants successfully just so happens to be selling AI coding assistants, so I can't trust them.
Was hoping to get reviews from people who use them for daily work

>>107205507
Doesn't work. How do I enable echo? Not a big tech guy, sorry. I mainly archive stuff from there.

>>107205543
Just checked, echo is on, the prompt just locks me out of any input outside of enter, which locks me out from downloading anything.

>>107205577
Have you done what >>107205507 said? Just type the numbers and press enter. Make sure you don't have num lock off. You won't see the numbers but it will still take the input. It's a privacy feature.

Why does tech seem so incredibly fraudulent and retarded? It's like everyone is an expert, a coach or some kind of ceo and apparently nothing you do is correct and you're running out of time and your future kids will hate you if you don't do this and that etc. It's tough for me as a beginner to get into anything tech related when I don't know who or what to trust, the sources of information are so overwhelming man

>>107205642
I did, now it works. Fuck me am I stupid. Thanks guys, have a great weekend.

This is every field ever and the reason is marketing. They just want to give you FOMO so you impulse buy their thing.
If you want proper knowledge (on anything), you'll just have to deal with the bullshit until you learn enough know how to filter it out.

I'm gonna learn to solder (still waiting for my iron) but I'm worried about the flux fumes and lead because I don't have a dedicated work area. Will soldering in my bedroom contaminate the whole room or just the work surface? I was originally going to do it at my desk but would it be better to just get a cheap folding table?

>>107205705
Are you using the LTS? I don't have any issues on my end. I presume the various buntus also use snaps. Are you using firefox 145.0 snap?

>>107205784
Might want to have a fan that's blowing the opposite direction of your workstation, preferably out a window, or alternatively, working in front of the intake of a HEPA filter if your window is in an inconvenient place.

>>107206139
yeah to all

I got my first eyeglasses today and they really help but the left lens is a bit underwhelming, it does help with objects up to 20 yards away but after that it's just not as good. I have this thing where objects are smeared horizontally, lights and sticks end up tripling. I've kinda subconsciously been expecting it to fix my vision to perfection. Was that unrealistic? Anyone in the same place?
