An old stereo like that is also going to need new capacitors.

This. As capacitors dielectic fluids deteriorate over time.

With Shematics in hand, open up that stereo system. With a thin plastic/dry wooden stick (thickness of straw), gently knock on all caps while stereo is playing. You will find the culprit cap(s).

It is recommended that you replace all electrolytic capacitors, but more time and energy. Throw it on “future projects” basket.

Caution:

⚠️ Risk of electric shock ⚠️

****** BE CAREFUL *******

• wear shoes (utility boots, eg. CAT boots)
• wear gloves (a dry-cloth glove at least on hand that will hold the stick)
• put the stereo unit on a table where you can stand while you test it. Make sure there’s nothing behind you, in case you need to abruptly fall down. 'Cause accidents happen.
• bonus: have plastic lamina paper cover areas where grid power gets stepped down to prevent accidental touch. 'cause, for most well-made devices, grid power is handled on a separate PCB board. You will clearly see it (huge capacitors and a big fat transformer)

It’s seen around 300,000 miles, both coasts of the US, immense hail storms, a small tornado, a multi-car pileup, a few bullets, and multiple hurricanes.

Oof, make and model, please

No barber visit for 7 years now. been clipping myself ever since.

Woa.

Thank you, +1 to your converted list

LOL welsh

LOL, OP was looking for an alternative to streaming platform, not an introduction to this whole new universe of terminal,

Plus, yt-dlp doesn’t work (at least to my knowledge) on a smartphone (maybe on termux? I dunno, haven’t tried it)

Shazam app with youtube.com plus ezmp3.cc

Long answer:

Cloud infrastructure is expensive. You won’t find any free streaming platform.

The best route is to manage your own Playlist manually.

Workflow:

Interesting music playing on radio/party

-‐> shazam to know title and artist 

-‐> search youtube.com for that title and artist 

--> copy url of video that best matches 

--> paste url on ezmp3.cc for converting to audio 

--> await conversion, download generated audio 

--> Use a smart-mp3-tags app to add tags and album art automatically

Prons:

• until now, i’ve paid $0 for music I listen to. Evil bastard, I know. I, however, have bought poweramp for $5. Best purchase yet.
• you will find any music this way no matter how niche and weird it is. Unlike surfing the pirate ship
• bonus: you most definitely will find your favorite audiobooks.

Cons:

• no music discovery features. Which is truly the only downside you can’t replace.
• no backup in case of device loss, so you better make copies manually

Ofc. Dunno wwid w/ it

My God, this thread is taking me down the memory trip. Me likey

I loved it! Binged all day!

LOL, username checks out. My maan

Hanzi characters are great for condensing information.

True, I will ask this: Why does it have 2 variants? Traditional? Modern?

Swahili speaker (native) here, fluent in English.

Language is a medium of communication between two or more parties. So long as they understand each other, all is good. whether they used klingon or Martian, it don’t matter.

What i do know is that, if, hypothetically, internet throws a poll for people all over the world to choose language they will use for communication, every one, myself included, will hold their conner, defending how real and original the language that they are familiar with (and most definitely biased towards) is.

if you put it on a vote on the other hand, something different happens. In fact, it’s been happening all along, silently and quietly at the back of our heads. From the first day surfing through the internet to buying your first own smartphone/laptop and choosing the default language for these devices, I know on my part I was driven by convenience. As the majority of media outlets use English. From the shows i watched to the role‐models i looked up on while growing up, they all circled around this fascinating slang that made them even more interesting. The internet’s influence towards english made it easy (at least for me) to catch up real quick.

I will say this tho, hearing hakuna matata on the lion king was awesooome

Woa

Plus Hitler and Stalin both hated it.

The Fascist crew 😂
