i want to digitize some old #analog cassette tapes with my m1 macbook pro. I tried plugging the cassette player's aux cable into the laptop's headphone jack, but it wont detect the signal.

i don't know much about #mac or #audio #music recording. is there anyone out there who can explain what i'm doing wrong or point me to the adapter I need? : preferably not amazon
thanks in advance!

"#LifeHack:

Below this is a painting of a woman, resting her face on her hand, with a cigarette in her mouth. On the table in front of her is a teapot, cup, a glass, a small box, a plate with two eggs, some bread, and a knife.

Any act of repair a gratifying gesture of refusal and subversion these days. A poke in the eye to corporate waste and consumer lassitude.

Feeling like renegade heating engineer Harry Tuttle (Robert De Niro) of ‘Brazil’ right now, having decided: eff no, not into landfill—not yet.

And how fitting: while finishing up, @pluralistic heard on CBC radio discussing DCA & right-to-repair.

The internal wiring and heating element of a ‘Master Chef’ coffeemaker (not a bad machine most days) with its bottom cover removed, repair in progress. A blocked cold feed tube down to the horseshoe was the issue, probably my fault for letting something fall into the reservoir—it looked like a bit of cinnamon stick caught at the narrow point. And then broken lines, as they’d grown brittle and broke on disassembly. Note the classic bi-metallic corrosion built into the design (white oxidation where element was affixed to the underside carafe’s hot plate and brown-yellow oxidation stains where bracket clamps element)—total failure still on the way, but thwarted for the moment.
Same photo, feed and hot tubes replaced. Let’s take a sip from the first-run p-test now (production system using ‘live’ coffee vs. test water—not pee!)… Ah, yes… Taste that? Non-compliance is sweet and delicious.
