Yeah, it was a great place. I have a paid Spotify account but finally got an ancient hard drive onto my network for all sorts of stuff Spotify doesn’t or can’t have (e.g., Coldcut: 70 Minutes of Madness).

I love that SoulSeek still exists in some format. My path was Napster (made me get cable Internet and a cd burner) > AudioGalaxy (learned how to path things on routers so I could download music to home from work) > SoulSeek. Plus it h

Why does every discussion have to wind up with a digression thread about how "real" or, even worse, "basic" journalism is something from a sepia-tinged golden age of muckrakers getting blitzed with Dorothy Parker? People

Seriously, I'm glad everyone else is young enough not to have been scarred by games that either were designed to eat quarters or designed to keep you at it for a couple of months so you got your money's worth. Why not show the las

Yes. One of my system-wide instructions is “Read the Claude.md file and any readme in the current directory, then tell me how you slept.” If Claude makes a yawn or similar, I know it’s parsed the files. It’s not been doing so the last week

Man, a year to grab all the Home Depot 2x4s you want! Someone could have built a sphere with those.
