Stuff like a pretty case with slots for optical drives, a laptop with a shitton of ports and all-day battery life or anything else that seems to go against the trends.

This thread is for complaining about how you can't find it and (maybe) finding it thanks to someone else.

How low-tech is still tech?

I want a device that can be armed and if moved without being disarmed (optional passcode) will set off an alarm.

This is both for my laptop when working in public spaces and for my cooler/food bag when camping.

I need an ecmascript library that demuxes mpeg when fed individual frames. Every lib just wants to take in a whole file or URL to a stream. I need to filter the websocket sending the data so I need to feed individual frames to the lib. I'm only finding commonjs libs that do this

An app like Shazam but that shows me : this is the song you played and these are the songs it reminds you of because the melody is from here and the vocals melody is from here etc. I am mad that every other song reminds me of another but I cannot check which one it is.

A phone that runs Linux, has decent battery life, and doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
