I feel like the only person who never got viruses from Limewire. Just don’t run the file called “slipknot_wait_and_bleed.mp3.exe”, it’s not rocket science.

This is how I see vinyl as well. I don’t buy them for the sound quality, I have a huge library of uncompressed digital files for that. I buy them because they’re a nice tactile thing to own that helps support the artists I love. 9 times out of 10 I’m not spinning vinyl when I listen to music, but I will if I want to create a particular experience/vibe in that moment.

As a cyber security engineer, it’s because it hates you. It also hates me. The printer knows nothing but rage.

I’m weaning myself off it. Sadly there’s some communities that I’m active in on Reddit that either don’t exist on a federated platform or are so tiny that they’re functionally dead. Hopefully we can grow those communities though - if we want to preserve the internet and our democracies into the future, the cancer that is big tech needs viable alternatives.

I think they mean Reuters.

Dogshit website anyway.

Been looking for a Plexamp alternative for a minute, I’ll check this out. Appreciate the recommendation.

Can’t say I have a huge issue with this - Plex isn’t FOSS and the infrastructure to make this happen isn’t free. Other options are available if you don’t want to pay the fee.

There is nothing wrong with it other than it makes me feel ancient and I don’t like it.
