I have it running on a vps and what maintenance really?

Even the German right wing is making much more out of immigration than it actually is.
There’s some brown people on the street now, big deal.

It’s fine in Germany. Streets are safe, crime is at an all-time low. There’s more barber shops here now.
The only problem is the rise of our MAGA-equivalents.

AntennaPod is The best podcast app I’ve come across

Delta chat is chat over email infrastructure

Linklater is a client for my selfhosted linkding bookmark app

Tusky is my mastodon app of choice

Unciv is Civ5 scaled down to pixel graphics

Termux is my terminal emulator for android

Weechat-android I use for chatting on IRC

Kahon I use for reading manga and comics

But my instinct is to first check on fdroid before I look for something on Google play

I use fennec, but librewolf proposes using IronFox

Right now I work as an administrator for a few Red Hat servers. Notebooks are still Windows though.

The whole œuvre of Bud Spencer and Terence Hill.

How does it actually need 20mb of RAM if the system fits into 1.44mb?

Ok, a bit of an academic question, but still

We also are running our own videochat servers with galène (for ttrpgs), but those don’t have a persistent text chat

Eh, everything that tries to “improve” on IRC makes everything more complicated. I have a thelounge installation running that’s connected to our small IRC network. When I want people to chat I drop them a link to it (maybe with a room name) and it drops them right in. thelounge has some improvements to stock IRC (pictures, videos, and links visible in chat), but some of the more advanced functions still demand an account (e.g. there is an inbuilt persistent buffer, but that one is only visible to accounts). I have it running under thelounge.wilderland.ovh and it will drop by default into the #welcome channel.

Man Fritz learn to shut the fuck up

This author was sooo close to get it

Now Playing: Highway to Hell by AC/DC

Galéne, but it’s really only for video/voice chat. But that it does great, low resource use, and you can even have multiple media streams from the same machine without issue.

Yeah, but people seem to forget it all the time when it comes to music. I just can’t stand the constant whine of “Oh music used to be so much better back then” no it fucking wasn’t.

(I also despise the whole thing about cartoons: look at how good the cartoons we had back then and how bad the cartoons now are. And then they turn out to be talking about old Looney Tunes or Disney cartoons that were done for cinemas, often with an actual budget, and which just got repackaged for TV later)

This comes back to the problem with old music: music didn’t get worse, you just remember the good or memorable songs. At any point since the Billboard charts have been created 70% of them is dross, 20% is mediocre, maybe 10% is good. Everybody remembers the good songs that survive because they are good, and some of the mediocre songs people relate to. Everybody forgets the dross.
But back then, that was what you listened to as well.

(Check out, e.g. the Billboard hot 100 for 1968 (or even just Hot 20): it had Hey Jude at position 1, Sittin’ on the Dock of the Bay on 3, and Mrs Robinson on 9, but it also had, let’s see… 18 was Grazing in the Grass by Hugh Masekela (which is good but it’s a trumpet instrumental), 2 was Love is Blue by Paul Mauriat (a schmaltzy melody, but it’s the second hottest song if 1968), and 7 is This Guy’s in Love with you by Herb Alpert)
(And you can do that with basically every year. I graduated in 2004, so what do we have there? Usher’s Yeah on 1 (I remember that), Usher’s Burn on 2 (no clue), Maroon 5 on 4 (this is one of those bands everybody seems to have struck out of their memory), Hey Ya by Outcast on 8, but their The Way you Move on 5 (definitely not a mainstay I would say), Nickelback is 17 (another band everybody pretends never to have listened to), but Twista’s Slow Jamz is 16 (who?) )

Is it actually Foss? I assumed it was, but recently I was checking and couldn’t find anything about licenses and stuff on the webpage.

…
I mean. I think I’ve seen that joke in something from the 60s, so at least the classics are being kept alive?

Two LTO-10 tapes (and presumably a LTO-10 reader to copy them over because I don’t think the destination would have that)

Sometimes I wish there was some accepted social cue to just send someone a message and clarify what you actually meant. We all do that, why not just accept it, deal with it, and move on?

Maybe you would have a better point if the Luddites hadn’t been right.
