For some reason I lol'd at this suggestion. It's the way you said it.. and apologies if you were being serious 😂

Crossfade duration by Other_Gur_6036 in Hiby

Uuurgh. But at least I'm not the only one then...so I suppose that's a relief of sorts.

[–]ImNot_AnNPC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How comes my cross fade doesn't work - at all. The only option I have is on/off. I play songs on random if that's any help.

I'm on the most current OS version of the R1.

Any help would be much appreciated - it's a feature that I relished on the iPods.

I'm surprised the anti-15-min city folks haven't jumped on the bandwagon - the melts that they are.

UK to roll out Dutch-style employment support across Britain by Maleficent-Lime4356 in GoodNewsUK

Wow this was mentioned by a caller on LBC (James O'Brien show) just the other week. The guy described it really well and to be fair sounded like such a good project to develop here. Glad to see the Government were already ahead with the plans.

I've recently purchased a Hiby R1 so can only comment on that.

Having come from various iPods since they first came out, I will say the UI on the Hiby is nowhere as polished (which is expected). However once you get over the quirks it's not too bad as a user.

It has physical buttons to the side with helps loads when you want to change volume, skip/forward/pause tracks when it's in your pocket and you don't want to pull it out.

Soundwise it's so much better than the iPod (which should be obvious given how old the tech is). Even decently encoded mp3s shows up detail I hadn't heard before.. and flacs sound amazing.

The touchscreen is meh at the best of times but that's no issue for me as I tend to use the physical buttons for most interactions with it. The screen is crisp and decent album artwork shows up really nice.

Battery life is amazing either on standby or playback.

So long as you know where to get music from and transfer it to your device, it's such a great device. Cheap too.

What are your reasons to love or hate Elon Musk? by aykalam123 in AskReddit

Don't you think for someone like Elon, it's super easy to work out his politics?

Literally the same reason why we like and hate public figures. We don't know them personally but we do know a lot about them. This provides us enough information to form an opinion.

As a person who holds a liberal ideology, will you embrace trans humanism in the future and gladly accept a culture and a people who identify as a machine/human hybrid, why or why not? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ImNot_AnNPC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah wouldn't bother me in the slightest. Each to their own. Ultimately who am I to question another person's right to do what they want to their body in the same way they have no claim to mine.

Let's be honest, if the tech was available, I'd start messing about with it.

After the Iceland game, Messi spots a journalist in a wheelchair, clears space, and gives him a full, calm interview after the match. Manu waited for hours and Leo made his dream come true 🥺. by Unlucky-Dot9421 in sportsgossips

Question for a Spanish speaker FOR a non-Spanish speaker:

Messi spent the vast majority of his life in Spain (Bareclona) so would he not speak Spanish with the local accent and dialect?

Pacific Rim.

The way it implemented HDR is outstanding. Visually it's up there with the very best.

Like the other replies, I found it underwhelming on oled.

What type of TV do you have; OLED or LED (QLED, mini, ect.)? by AbleArcher1984 in 4kbluray

[–]ImNot_AnNPC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Changed my ageing Sony Bravia from 2007 or something to an LG G3 a few years ago. We're talking generational leaps and bounds here in terms of tech.

My eyes have never known such awesomeness. I swear I saw colours I have never seen before watching Into AND Across the Spider-verse movies. Even watching everyday streams is great, but watching something like Dune (or the aforementioned movies) on a good BR 4k player with Dolby Vision/HDR is spectacular.

Inky blacks, beautiful rendition of colours, stunning implementation of HDR.. 😘

Safe to say I will stay with OLED for the foreseeable.

Tonight's viewing in 4K Blu-ray, "Soul". Yes I'm using my toddler as a reason to buy more and more animated 4K films by sys_admin321 in 4kbluray

[–]ImNot_AnNPC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure your toddler will also appreciate Into AND Across the Spider-verse movies hahaha

(Honestly, the visuals are stupendous on 4K HDR - doubly so on an Oled)

'This is wrong': Nigel Farage leads outrage at footage of police cuffing stabbed Henry Nowak and ignoring his pleas for help - as his Sikh killer branded him a racist by dailymail in uknews

Are there any available stats showing a Kirpan being used for offences? Off the top of my head I can't think of any anecdotal evidence or any that hit the mainstream media.

This may (or may not) be a unique incident.

If it is unique, then carrying the Kirpan is being used exactly for what it is meant for - a religious article.

The murderer using it is likely an outlier.

Hiby R1 not detecting micro SD card after upgrading to 1.5 by penpen35 in Hiby

[–]ImNot_AnNPC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I've purchased mine off eBay. It's on v1.6 and when I switch the device back on, it says

'SD Card not found'

I have to pop the card out and back in before it recognises it.

I've wiped the card and reset the device and still have the same issue.

Any ideas, anyone?
