                                          "2025 Best Modern Gifts for the Minimalist."
                                          Field recorders, as a rule, are pretty minimalist, being that they are boxes which hold electronics and have a couple of microphone capsules at the pointy end. But what about when you want to "wickawickawicka" like an itinerant D.J?
                                          Well, for $1,499, Teenage Engineering forgoes all the utility of a real field recorder to give you a motorized wheel. So you can physically scratch your audio files.
                                          But wait! That's not all. The Teenage Engineering TP-7 is also a dictaphone which you can edit on. Tada.
                                          A field recorder and dictaphone for $1,499! What's the catch, otherwise, take my money. Well...
                                          The Catch:
                                          As a "Field Recorder": The spec sheet is a ghost. It records at 24-bit / 96 kHz—the exact same digital quality as the $99 Zoom H1n. But while the H1n includes built-in stereo X/Y condenser mics, the TP-7 has... a single mono mic for notes. To get the basic stereo functionality the H1n has out of the box, you must buy the separate $1,199 Teenage Engineering microphone.
                                          As a "Dictaphone": It's a $1,499 device that does the exact same job as the free "Voice Memos" app on the iPhone it's designed to sit next to—including on-device editing and transcription.
                                          It's the perfect solution for the minimalist who finds the free, perfectly functional apps on their $1,200 smartphone just aren't expensive enough.

The device features a large, central motorized dial, a small digital screen, tactile playback buttons, a side rocker, and a knureled knob, emphasizing its analog-inspired, minimalist design.

                                                @twcau I had no idea that gesture existed 😕

                                                this is one of my annoyances / with as well – failure to provide any in-app or on-device help / documentation for this stuff & rely on “serendipitous discovery” 🙄 which of course just means you often never “discover” how to do basic things on your phone unless you just stumble on them 😤 and for those of us who normally for fun (& profit? 🤔) or general interest or professional competence, there’s just no FM to R… 😜

                                                they do have the “Tips” app but I’ve found it so patchy that I deleted it from my phone. I just downloaded it now to see if it had any info about this pinch & swipe gesture in Safari but nope ¯_(ツ)_/¯

                                                what I did discover though (in the Tips app) is that there are now three tab bar layouts in Safari – “top”, “bottom”, & “compact” – & the layout I had was the compact one, which I don’t recall ever selecting as I didn’t realise there were any options to set (there in the Settings app rather than in the app itself of course, because Apple 🤪)

                                                if you switch it to “bottom”, the tabs button / icon is restored, but it takes up about twice the space at the bottom of the screen (until you scroll the page). I’ll be switching to this layout since it’s the closest to what I previously had

                                                also, FWIW, I did already know that you can slide across the tab bar left or right to swipe to the next tab open tab in either direction, but as you say there doesn’t seem to be a single-hand gesture

                                                now, I don’t use Safari as my primary browser (tbh it’s about fourth), but I do use it occasionally if I need to temporarily reduce the strictness of my browser settings to access some janky website. so I use it often enough for this change to screw up my muscle memory 🫠

                                                I’m sure some folks either don’t notice such things or just blithely accept that crap changes in unexpected ways in this “smart” device world we now live in, but for “power users” 🤔 and folks who either care significantly about the tools we use and / or are significantly bothered by regressive changes (or just by change for the sake of change), this stuff matters 😤

                                                  the toolbar now has enormous text & button elements^ that have presumably led to the decision to remove the tabs button / icon & relegating to a pop-up menu – so now viewing open tabs requires two taps instead of one, & switching to a different tab now requires three taps instead of two… 🤦‍♀️

                                                  these are the alleged “design geniuses” of at work, folks 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

                                                                                                  Years later, people are still playing their Deck but wishing for more powerful hardware - comes to the rescue TOGETHER with the they wished for.

                                                                                                  Eventually, once Steam Frame has matured (like the Deck very well is now, in its fourth year), Valve announces a Steam Deck Lite (or Mini) with an ARM SOC instead of x86, and like the Steam Deck, plays most of your libraries at reasonable performance/fidelity but this time - with a huge boost in battery life and a leaner form factor :)))

                                                                                                  I know I'm coping hard rn but I would looooovveeeee for ARM to be as widespread on the Linux 'ecosystem', as it has been for for the longest time now - and I'm putting it on Valve to get us there ​:blobfoxcat:

Specifically, it inspired me to order an Alpaka Modular Phone Sling V2 on clearance at $22. The simplicity of the “single piece of cloth” is appealing, and I would seriously use it, but I’m not paying 10x for a luxury item over a practical alternative.
