As B0rax said, for screenshots, png is better - it can represent line graphics and text more efficiently.

Come back to the OG fediverse killer-app, that Google killed with EEE-

Jabber/XMPP

Doesn’t have additional fluff like scrobbing or telling Spotify about every track you listen to get their albumart. (though you might want this, that’s fine)

Browsing is by folder structure, not via tags. Again, this is a preference thing, I prefer to browse by folder structure, since just about every player wants to define the ‘album artist’/‘artist’ split differently and some do and don’t support ‘sort artist’ tag.

node.js v. Go+ReactJS (nodejs is mature now and is a single dep, golang is pretty mature but react is moving fast and breaking things)

Really just depends on what features you want.

Shout out for mStream - the simplest and best cloud music server.

Low dependency count, very low overhead, no fees or ‘premium’ options like Plex and co. - just a simple html or api to app interface to your music, with optional transcoding (one setting for the whole server, if there was one complication I’d add to mstream it would be per-user transcoding options)

Works great with super large libraries.

Only big caveat i’ve noticed, is that it sends the albumart every track, so if you’ve got some music with a 1500x1500 ~500-1500KiB coverart, it’ll eat your data a bit more than it should. Obviously this doesn’t matter if you’ve got unlimited mobile data.

They were just a decade or so out.

AEGIS == SkyNet.

It even has direct control of some naval mini-guns (Phalanx CIWS) - only the Navy uses it now but US Army is very interested in it though and is testing Patriot Missile integration.

You’re fine :)

It’s just weird to me I guess, someone in my age group who doesn’t know the CNC games.

Did you only start gaming in your late teens?

Lifespan per NAND cell, which gets exponentially smaller with each extra ‘layer’ per cell. SLC can do billions of writes per cell, QLC is ~1000 writes per cell.

Except for that were raped, but I guess since they’re Israeli, that doesn’t count?

I highly doubt this was against instructions.

Does a Surface Laptop with a Snapdragon count as a ‘PC’ to you?

I once feared the loose sheet, now I fear the quilt cover coming unbuttoned and getting my leg stuck inside it.

Indeed, it would be… Interjecting.

Which gives me a little silly smile.

*Barely anyone who doesn’t need to.

Russia uses it quite a lot to get around sanctions and their banning from Swift.

At least the evil megacorps were thoughtful enough to use stereotypical evil megacorp names.

Who do you think gave us the technology for GPS

US Navy.

NAVSTAR started in the 70s…

CIA

Why do Cookers always ascribe this most useless agency with so much power?

Have Hardware unboxed ever recommended anything Intel?

It’s not quite a shock to hear them be critical of Intel vs. Gamers Nexus and Level1Techs, I swear HUB would have recommended AMD in the Bulldozer days…

I have a FiiO M3 Pro.

It’s a great player, over 120DB SNR! and DSD if you think you need it.

Codec wise it supports most everything except Opus but is now discontinued (FiiO only sells players for the uber-rich now - entry level is US$499.99 for the M11S)

If you can get one used, they’re a great player.

I’ve heard good things about the HiBy Digital M300 - but i’ve never tried one.

You’re both right, Brave has been compromised since the beginning, but Mozilla is also compromised.

This is why Google is a monopoly and needs to be broken up.
