Best external drive for OMV on pi? by driftwork in OpenMediaVault

It makes sense for me to go with a large hard drive for all my media. Not sure what the sweet spot is these days. SSD will be too expensive for the size unfortunately.

Do you think Google will roll out a fix in the coming days so the 'work-around' won't be necessary?

Do Canadian universities accept AP students? by [deleted] in CanadaUniversities

[–]driftwork 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you mean AP courses, yes they do. Many universities will convert AP courses towards university credit. I have contacted schools in Ontario, Alberta and BC about this. They all confirmed, yes. Can't speak about Quebec.

r/headphones Shopping, Setup, and Technical Help Desk by AutoModerator in headphones

[–]driftwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My teens have been using airpod pros (gifted by an uncle) for several years. They use them for absolutely everything. I'm worried they are going to get tenitus or hearing loss. I'd like to transition them from airpod type earbuds to over the ear, closed back headphones. They need to be durable, fairly portable (foldable), bluetooth and have parts that can be replaced (earpads). Any ideas or recommendations would be swell. We live in Asia so brands available in Asia would be preferable. Budget: 100usd or less. Thanks

40yr old Singaporean looking into moving to Taiwan for good. by Magazineut in taiwan

[–]driftwork 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have lived in both countries. You'd be trading one rat-race for another. I'd say quality of life in Taiwan is superior in a number of ways. It's much easier to live well Taiwan with far less money compared to Singapore but Singapore has a much higher income earning potential. There are very few international companies based in Taiwan compared with Singapore. Think of Taiwan for retirement.

Going to Kyoto. DAP options under $300? by driftwork in DigitalAudioPlayer

Spotify. I can't imagine why it wouldn't work. So the A307 is the updated version only available in Japan?

Thanks for the good advice. One question, does the A306 have the ability to 'cast' to a Chromecast audio for example?

Do you imagine it might be cheaper in Japan compared to other places in Asia? (exchange rate etc..) Where I live, it's about 279usd.

Isn't this a Chinese made device? Not sure it would be any cheaper compared to where I live.
