For me streaks are a double edged sword; if I break a streak then the stat becomes a disincentive

PCjs uses JavaScript to emulate a small collection of hardware and software that I grew up with in the 1970s and 1980s, allowing you to experience their slow CPUs, low-resolution displays, and primitive sound effects, all in the comfort and safety of your desktop or mobile web browser.
Over time, PCjs emulations have expanded to include selected IBM PC Compatibles and more classic machines, such as Minicomputers, Programmable Calculators, Terminals, and Arcade Games. To learn more or contribute to these very modest preservation efforts, visit the PCjs open-source project on GitHub.
I don’t have a specific recommendation, but I believe the key words to search for these days are “Digital Audio Player”.
I’ve been following the open hardware Tangara for a while, but they’re between production runs right now so you can’t buy from them (you might be able to build your own though, the design is all there)
As a heads up, like so many other technologies the middle has fallen out of the market thanks to the proliferation of smart phones. You’ll be paying a lot for anything decent from what I’ve seen

Technology@lemmy.ml•I'm Kenyan. I Don't Write Like ChatGPT. ChatGPT Writes Like Me.
9·4 months agoThe machine, in its quest to sound authoritative, ended up sounding like a KCPE graduate who scored an ‘A’ in English Composition. It accidentally replicated the linguistic ghost of the British Empire.
Combined with how the academic community has been warning about encoding biases since way before the current hype cycle, this sentence is mildly horrifying

homeassistant@lemmy.world•Matter 1.5 update brings support for smart home camerasEnglish
6·5 months agoI had to make that technology decision recently and decided on Zigbee. I don’t see any real advantage to Matter other than future support, and current support is much much lower than Zigbee.
The “seamless internet/cloud connection” is a massive turnoff. Products proudly advertising Matter and then hiding Thread vs WiFi is a pain. And frankly only IKEA really seems to be offering anything Matter with AU plugs and they’re super coy about it so I’m never confident about what I’m getting.
Check what version of Syncthing-fork you’re running. IIRC there was a major breaking change between 1.x and 2.x, so they published a new app to make sure people only upgraded deliberately.
AFAICT F-droid hasn’t built the new app (yet?). The redirect is on GitHub’s end. You can also install older versions through F-Droid if you prefer (but not 1.x, I don’t believe those are published anymore)
