I still don’t understand why IA picked a fight with publishers with the emergency library.
IA provides a really valuable service and they’re an incredibly juicy target. Going on anti-copyright crusades isn’t their mission.

MacOS was just about as jank as Windows 9x by my recollection.
The screen was nice, the USB support was nice. I didn’t hate the keyboard, though I was used to an IBM Model M so I hammered those keys…
Reason. It’s got a unique workflow that is hard to break from. I even tried Renoise, but it’s hard to switch.
For the tower defense enthusiast.
If students hide their phones instead of being distracted by them, isn’t that mission accomplished?
Came here to post Tech Won’t Save Us.
RAIL has its own problems-the use restrictions make it very different from normal open source models.
He’s not wrong to call Mastodon users weirdos I suppose, but I wanted to talk to fellow weirdos anyway so it serves my purposes well.
I think it’s a base model 3, no gobs of memory. I don’t use it for anything especially taxing, just file storage and occasionally streaming music or low-resolution video. The bottleneck is the slow WD Archive hard drive.
Yes, Aphex Twin - Collapse was going to be my answer.
My setup is a raspberry pi with a large external hard drive running smbd, and it works fine.
I’m a nostalgic person by nature. My impulse has always been to save rather than delete. I could never do this. In fact, I did the opposite; I made a GDPR request for my data and ran a script to download all of the posts still available in the API. No response on the GDPR request yet but they’re allowed time.
Thanks for making an RSS feed, subscribed!
Yeah that’s been the harder thing to find on Lemmy. For stuff like retrocomputing or open source I imagine the fediverse will still be a strong contender, but I also like reddit for, like, obscure old games with a total remaining community of less than a hundred people, and that’s one thing Reddit and Discord are still the champions of.
I need to check back on reddit to see if my GDPR request has completed. It hasn’t yet and they don’t retain it for long. I might keep going on the few subs I go on, I suppose. I suffered though mobile web reddit all these years anyway. But if the mods strike again, I of course won’t cross the picket line.
I like games that indulge my poor impulse control and reward risk-taking and recklessness. Battle Royale games seem to be the exact opposite of this, which I think is why they rub me the wrong way. I don’t want twenty minutes if waiting only to die in ten seconds, I wanna die over and over for twenty minutes and maybe still win the match.
Yeah, that is admittedly a big drawback for YT
I like YT Music better than Spotify because user uploads cover the gaps in Spotify’s catalog. Bootlegs, concert recordings, obscure game soundtracks, it has everything.
I agree strongly with your gut reaction. I personally use it as the archive of record whenever I digitize some media that would otherwise be lost. I use it when trying to establish how something looked in the past. I don’t need IA to go out and pick losing fights with publishers at the expense of the excellent services they already provide.
It should be noted that if you want digital book loans Libby is fine.
