ChatGPT spat this out.

No one asked

How does this blocking thing make sense?

Either the profile is public, which means you can still open it on another account, or it’s private, which means no one can see it anyways if they’re not an accepted follower.

I don’t see how anything changes from Musk’s change…

You’re not looking “beyond” Firefox, you’re just staying on Chromium. As unfortunate as it is, your only options these days are Chromium, Firefox and Safari (MacOS exclusive). All Chromium browsers will stop supporting Manifest V3.

Vivaldi is Chromium… Use a Firefox fork at least

You can short something without forcing a short squeeze…

Literally all my friends know the name “Chromecast”, why would you rename it

How is Intel’s GPU marketshare any better… Last I heard they were selling their chips at a loss

You’d usually crop out the top and bottom of the screen anyways.

Eva is fantastic now that the rebuilds actually have a somewhat uplifting ending that gives perfect closure. I detested Eva for many years but my mind was changed by the rebuilds

it is quite literally spyware

So are Facebook and Instagram, which are apparently not a problem. Remember Cambridge Analytica?

where they can adjust their own algorithms to show things that can sway the minds of people too young to think critically

Every social media platform does this for maximum retention

to the CCP

What’s the CCP gonna do with it that’s worse than what Western companies do with it?

Does EDM count?

Skybreak, Sharks & LÚTHIEN - Out Of Frame

Porter Robinson - Cheerleader (Au5 Flip)

Companies could take and steal as much as they want from smaller artists in that case

Link? I just find graphite dev which is not related to drawing

If you must use Spotify, use ZSpotify with DOWNLOAD_REAL_TIME and hope you don’t get banned. Alternatively, use it with a burner account.

I prefer Deezer and pay for Deezer HiFi. Deemix still works to rip FLACs from there.

Isn’t YTM like 128-192kbps AAC? I’d rather not even bother ripping that lol

Spotify’s encoding (vorbis 320kbps) should be transparent at the maximum bitrate. However, it’s possible that the files uploaded on there are mastered differently, for average consumer consumption instead of the full dynamics of most source material. I know SoundCloud enforces “loudness” mastering with presets when uploading for example.

The real reason Spotify’s quality is inferior to others is that, if you have the music files, you can apply in-app parametric equalization on every platform and compensate for imperfections of your output device.

Tidal, Deezer and Quboz all have ways to download the content. The most stupid one being to record the output of the music player, but there’s tools that automatically get the full metadata too and ensure the audio is cropped to silence.

To do it in an intended way, Bandcamp and other services let you pay once to have access to the source file on your account “forever”.

Opus at max bitrate is only like 1/4th the size of FLAC. At that point, why not just store it in 10GB while keeping the full quality?
