You betcha it is!


tape to tape recording (aka dubbing) was a thing. It would be done in real time unless your deck had high speed dubbing, but that often resulted in a slightly poorer quality.
You could also record direct to tape from radio, LP, or CDs, so not sure why the microphone and background noise thing is an issue. Even before dual decks you could have separates where you could plug the output from one unit into the input of another.
Duplicating tapes from sources was a thing in the 80s for sure.



Yeah, that’s what it would be. I am old have visions of people poring over the data manually :)


Trackers can show which users are active in a torrent at a given time. They may indicate whether a user has a complete copy of a file or is still downloading it. If investigators followed newly posted torrents over a long period, they may have been able to identify an IP address that repeatedly appeared as the first source with a complete copy.
That’s some dedication


Ditto. I used to nab stuff (movies, audio software) from Usenet. Then DVD rentals via mail came out and I paid for that. Then Netflix started streaming. Lots of content available for a single monthly fee. Nice. Much more convenient. Then the studios decided that what Netflix paid them in royalties wasn’t enough, we should start our own streaming service. That’s when the high seas became alluring to me once again


Yep. I had it set up in a docker compose setup with tailscale and gluetun. There is actually decent documentation for this on gluetun docs i think.
Then your tailscale container exists via gluetun which connects to your VPN.
Edit: Found these


Yes. Run a tailscale exit node which connects to the internet via said VPN. Connect to tailscale on android and select the exit node
Now you are routing android to tailscale and exiting via the vpn.
Not sure about pangolin on this front


Amazon did this and regretted it, canning their leaderboards.
It’s crazy to me that this is considered normal. Please use this product that will eventually replace you, kill the planet, and make some douchebag rich.
Edit: mobile typos


And Accenture itself reportedly started requiring senior staff to start using AI or risk losing out on promotions.
Every time companies urge employees to use AI and then regret the cost. The fuck is wrong with people? Why are they pushing it so hard? Does Sam give them hand jobs if they use the most?
I don’t understand this need to pressure staff into using something and threatening punishment if not. Are they worried that their employees are not efficient enough? Pay them the token prices on top of their salary and see how stuff changes.


Navidrome server.
Mobile: dsub2000
Desktop: feishin (or sometimes my own tui client)


Going to throw myhat in the ring. I used to use Cloudflare tunnels which are super easy to use and work well. Issue: it’s cloudflare and cloudfalre bad, and works best if you also have your domain registered there.
Anyways, I now use https://docs.pangolin.net/ which does a very similar job. It works great and IMO is easier to admin than tunnels, especially with auth and such.
I run pangolin on a racknerd cheapo server and traffic in forwarded to the box in my cupboard. Pangolin have some refetal links to hosting that give you some discounts.


Zuckerberg offered employees access to permanent desks, a symbolic gesture that unintentionally illustrated how expendable many of them had become.
IQ and wealth seem to be inversely proportional to each other.
Unpopular but cloudflare direct? I didn’t need to provide photo id for porkbun, buy I did sign up a while ago. Apart from that I have used gandi but they took a weird turn with their pricing etc


For desktop I like feishin,for android dsub2000.


You asked for personal setups so I’ll answer with what i have. Jellyfin does my video stuff. TV, movie etc. And for audio I use navidrome. I tried to use jelly for all of it but the music playback sucked (for me). Navidrome is subsonic api compatiable and gives you more options for clients therefore. I even wrote my own tui player :)
If I were you I’d set up jellyfin (not exposed to the internet) and see how it goes. If the music work then awesome, you have a one stop shop for all your media. If not, then add navi on top.
Have fun :)
