Why is this on c/Technology? Musk isn’t twitter and twitter isn’t tech news.

the phrase “opt-in consent” is sickening. if its not opt-in then, legally, it shouldn’t be consent at all. I hate that we have to clarify.

Why is this in c/Technology?

That’s exactly what I thought would work, but it doesn’t.

I’m using a regular off-the-shelf tape recorder, it doesnt have an electronic interface, I just press play and record manually.

I did use par2 and tar to generate redundancy, but I still need a way to locate it in the bytestream. Tar doesn’t seem to reliably mark the start or end of files :/

I tried that first! But tar complains if it can’t find the file header! So I still need to do some sort of packets. Unless you know some sort of workaround?

I dont. Its honestly not great. I’d rather that effort went to preserving and repairing the existing tools of the free and open web – the old protocols are extensible. Imagine if we had an RSS client with a “reblog” feature!

“Federation” adds overhead and honestly creates as many problems as it solves. It’s not a selling point, its a price tag.

I know what the headline actually means but i’m choosing to believe that donny just found out about calendars.

Please tell me the “Triple I Initiative” involves Solanum (Outer Wilds)
