I use linux too and used a Windows 7 VM, not because I couldn’t borrow a Windows computer, but because they don’t ship MSIE any more.

I use it and like its UI but it doesn’t properly support offline, you can just download single tracks. By proper offline support I mean something like Audinaut, which unfortunately doesn’t work in new Android versions

Thanks for the Wikipedia article. Can you quote or paraphrase the first sentence?

I’m just sharing how I’ve found b2b contacts. My product was a financial failure but opened some doors.

I used google ads with very specific phrases and geolocation limited to rich countries. I spent a lot on it, the sales were like twice of what I spent, but I got some good contacts from it and they kept coming back for more.

But, and that’s a big “but”, I was employed before, noticed a niche that no commercial provider filled, and created my product. It wasn’t an idea that I thought was fun or could change the world.

rsync.net

I like to leave ssh over tor hidden service on remote boxes. It’s pretty resilient and can serve as emergency access for when something happens to the VPN. Not a great primary access method because of the latency.

I never used one tbh. Last time I used something WebGL was when its tech demo was released.

Of course all of these have uses, that’s why they exist. I just find these use cases very rare/exotic compared to viewing a video with subs.

There’s direct FS access now? Wow, going full ActiveX

They need to free resources for important stuff such as U2F WebAuthn PassKeys

I’ll take complete video support over WebBluetooth, DRM, WebGL and other similar garbage.

Looks like there is a simple way now, yay! https://blog.diego.dev/posts/firefox-sync-server/

If I recall correctly they used some exotic database that is made for multi tenant cloud environments and scales up really well, but does not scale down too much. I’ve seen some article where a guy managed to set it up locally but it was a long one, and the result was resource hungry. But, again, my knowledge may be outdated

Just look at the setup docs. First they tell you to setup mysql and then this nugget

The correct way to authenticate with Spanner is by generating an OAuth token and pointing your local application server to the token. In order for this to work, your Google Cloud account must have the correct permissions; contact the Ops team to ensure the correct permissions are added to your account.

Syncserver was what OP was asking for, I used it and it was great while it worked. The rust rewrite is almost impossible to self-host, at least as of a year ago there was no easy way to do it on a reasonably sized machine.

Nice idea but: ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED

It seems to be some kind of AI that polishes your writing style, helps change tone of the text etc.

Anybody tried this Spotnet thing in practice? How do the results rank vs centralized indexers?

I haven’t seen these until much later

I didn’t get that far. And I only had an Amiga at that time, which made things more difficult to set up. I wonder how fluent transparency would be with AGA, haha. My next attempt was woth a PC around 2003 with KDE3 and it got me hooked.
