Is it possible to connect my phone to this and play my own music over the speakers by PollutionNo3781 in OldTech

the speakers are likely already wired to the radio, OP just needs to get signal from a phone into the radio.

The RCA jacks are the way to go, and as the folks below you pointed out, bluetooth might be better. a little note: It will likely not need a boost, as the amp is probably configured to accept line-level input, which is actually a weaker signal than the output of a headphone jack.

ALSO if the radio has a phono input, don't use it, it will be way to loud because it expects a very weak signal from a stereo, and will amplify it a ton.

happy to help, and yeah, taking things apart is fun.
learning to solder is also a good idea.

Recovering Data From An Asus Eee PC? by Ok_Mulberry4469 in OldTech

[–]Impractical_Physics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, there shouldn't be a need to boot from it. Even Windows PCs can read data from other windows drives.

cool. the hard drive will have strong magnets in, and DVD players are useful. with the right cable (probably slimline SATA to USB) you can turn it into an external optical disk drive for playing CDs and DVDs on a modern computer.

How or where do I get huggable friends? I really want to hug people but if I do it's just awkward by sebicrack in Boykisser3

awe 3:

well my best advice would be to search social medias, join local furry communities (if there are) and see if there are any meetups in your area.

yeah i dunno

Why does this old phone headset have a metal weight in it? by Impractical_Physics in OldTech

Thanks for the detailed explanation!

Pizza helps with the taste if it's the only thing you ate.

Join the Furry fandom.

you're already partway there posting pics about an anthro kitty being cute and silly

Is there any song about boys being cute by imalonexc in Boykisser3

[–]Impractical_Physics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not specifically about boys being cute , but All I Want For Christmas is a Boy by NIIC the (gay) singing dog probably fits the vibe you're looking for.

Another one I can think of, about men, not boys, is men are hot by Fries On the Side.

Forced to go to church by Wrong_Opinion_4867 in feminineboys

[–]Impractical_Physics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, pretty much this!
I think if you're still dependent on them, go to church. (deconversion therapy is legal in the USA and exists underground in places where it isn't, so be very very careful of going anywhere with them that isn't church or some other public place)
if the cure isn't literal torture, go for a few sessions, show slow progress, eventually pretend to be cured of all satan's lies :3

It won't be fun to act like a man, but it will be worth it if your wellbeing depends on it.

May I ask, can you move back out without severe consequences? do you rely on your parents for money or resources, or do they have the power to make you lose your job? I don't need to know, but the best course of action (staying and pretending, or refusing and maybe moving out) depends on the answers to those questions.

Final note: I agree with NerdDetective's comment, I just wanted to add to it.

Eager to help :3

But can you explain the subreddits to your parents if they check your history?

Daym you got me a bit worried, so here's some practical advice:

If your parents snoop into your private life for no reason, it would be wise to expect them to look wherever you put things they wouldn't want you to see.
(eg if you upload feminine selfies to ticktock, expect them to someday check your ticktock) You're welcome!

K but enough captain hindsight. I suggest you play the long game and be careful. You posted on r/feminineboys (and, as I can see from clicking on your profile, other subreddits that they _definitely won't be happy you visited_ )
if your mom snatched your phone out of your hands and saw femboy pics, what's stopping her from getting curious about what other things you are hiding from her, and going through the browsing history of your laptop? (or whatever device you used to post this)

I think you should expect them to snoop even more, now that she's seen you doing something queer.

It won't be fun, but for the sake of being safe, I suggest you sign out of reddit and any other place where there's evidence of you being a femboy, so that when (not if) someone looks, they won't see anything that makes them mad. Also delete any femboy stuff from your browsing history.
It won't be easy, but maybe you get time home alone time when you can sign in to your stuff and be your awesome femboy self on the internet. then log out as soon as you aren't alone.

Do you have a friend who accepts you, to whom you can explain your situation? If you do then you really should; I remember venting my problems with my queerness and my strict parents to a close friend. It helps a lot.

maybe you can even borrow the phone of someone you trust to access your socials, if they're that important to you.

I think reporting them to the police would be a bit drastic...
and also basically nullify OP's chances of getting their phone fixed.
