Strongly seconded. Great radio, independent, opinionated, kind, reasonable, 100% listener supported. My main go-to for music in the last couple of years (since I discovered it)

How were you able to diagnose it yourself? Just through the error codes, or is there another interface available for non-technicians?

I had similar feeling over the past few years, trying futilely to escape the algorithm.. I recently discovered radiop aradise[1] which is exactly what I needed - free, old style, very little talk, human-curated radio. They have a vast selec

By quoting the word "Decent" you mean it is actually excellent, or is it actually poor?

That's not a useless project! It's a silly piece of code, but it gave joy to people, so I would say much more useful than most stories in this thread. Back in the nineties my dad had the notion that if you make the computer select

You've basically summarized David Graeber's book - Bullshit Jobs[1]. Highly recommended. [1] https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Bullshit-Jobs/David-G...

Hey, thanks for making this! And thanks for posting here. I was wondering if you are willing to share some of the innerworkings of this. You mention in the FAQ that it works for almost any site, so I am guessing you are not developing a per

Oh, it's a huge effort! These bodies meet and discuss what the proper spelling of words should be, or they make up new words, and then they publish those guidelines for journalists, authors, and anyone who wants to speak "properly

There is no such thing as "English pronunciation". English does not have a regulatory body like Spanish or German have. There are many English dialects, and sounds (and meanings) vary, A LOT. It's up to you whether you want t

I still am unable to get resume from deep sleep to be less than 12-15 seconds. I dug the forums, contacted support, did all the things, but nothing works. If I go to s2idle it is instant, but that takes way too much battery. Even with deep

Same here, been hosting for over a decade now. You do need to be on top of all the latest technologies, and still some problems will arise once in a while. But all in all, it's a pretty smooth operation.

Have you been using ssh at all? How's that experience? That's my main use case. How about video/audio calls? does Wi-Fi calling work well?

"Golden Apple" is still the word used today in modern Hebrew for orange, albeit in abbreviated form. I've always wondered where it came from.

I had a legit call a few months ago from the CRA (Canada Revenue Agency). He was nice enough and sounded calm, and I explained that with all due respect, since he called, I have no way of knowing if he is a scammer or not, so I'd like

Tartine by Chad Robertson was THE book for me. It took me from so-so sourdough bread, to amazing and consistent one that constantly gets praise and is a pleasure every time.

It's sourdough bread. It's way more filling then your average supermarket-bought white.

That sounds way too short. Until a few years ago you needed to be a resident (=reside) three years before you can apply (which takes about another year). I think now it's four + application processing time.

I don't remember this from the "Destroyer of worlds", but hey, 6 hours, it might have been there somewhere and I just missed it. BTW - it's not the recent one anymore, there's a new one. Yay!

I agree, musicbrainz is absolutely awesome. I use it daily for a couple of year now (to clean up the tags in my collection - quodlibet integrates nicely with musicbrainz for that) - and very rarely I am playing something that's not the

Heh, I did the same. The mine tracks though had the best coin-to-playtime ratio, so we focused on those :)
