Great read. I wonder if there’s a possibly for open source tools to decode these types of marks? I can’t imagine it’s easy especially if a company like google is creating it so that they have proprietary access to the stored information

8·28 days agoI looked at using my old Galaxy S10e to host some things and ran into this same issue. It depends on the device, but I found a video of a guy revmoving the battery and soldering in a special resistor or something to trick the phone into a) thinking the battery is installed and b) that the battery is not discharging and will stay powered on.
It’s been a minute since I’ve seen the video, but I think he gave an explanation of how it all works. Still on my to-do list for when I need a weekend project.

19·2 months agoI have an old LED maglite (Maybe 4D? not sure) and I haven’t replaced the batteries in probably almost 10 years and every time I come across it in storage I click it on just to see if it still works. Never fails

I just started the project of sanitizing a lot of the metadata in my music library and adding musicbrainz ID’s. Adding new releases for obscure artists is no joke, especially when their online presence is almost nonexistent.
