Go check out ektoplazm.com, electronic music with permissable licenses. Good for the culture of this website. Most things can be downloaded in flac.

Then when you have found a style, soundcloud is likely your home to find stuff and then when you have found it you can either rip it or buy it.

I haven't used a public site since Suprnova so I don't know about the health of public p2p sites at all. The private side is absolutely not stagnant, new sites pop up all the time and you can still find all the niche stuff you want to find by just nudging the enthusiasts with requests.

A lot of them seed from home, with humongous servers, and there are preservation programs going on in various places.

Never bought any merch from what, but I do own a ScT t-shirt :)

Music piracy is alive and well if you know where to look. Some places has been mentioned in this thread already. Of course there is no replacing the magic of early 2000-2010's p2p sites like OiNK, What and Waffles - but well curated sites still exist.

Some stunning images, looks like a sun plopped down in the middle of the desert.

Surely copy-pasting a short text and possibly a link is not actual work that takes time.

All they would need to do is set up some cross-posting pipeline and the work would be pretty much zero.

They could even drive people to click on mastodon/bsky links this way if they wanted people to go to the decentralized web.

This take is not valid.

Screwing over normal people and their rights is a feature, not a side effect.

This site is blocked by Cisco Corporate Security, so can't read it. I wonder why.

Two games in a row now I have gotten to a point where the last two pieces are ontop of eachother. I think this is perfectly fine, but seems to happen a little too often. Or I was just very unlucky.

Otherwise it's a sweet game!

Here in Sweden it's uncommon. Especially in big parking lots/houses.

Does the Nordea app work on Graphene? I am curious because I have been itching to switch my main phone to an alternate OS.

Creatine monohydrate (and seemingly HCL too, though not tested long term) kind of makes me constipated. I'd like to take it, because I lift weights quite often, but it just messes with my stomach too much.

I used to play a lot of Crimsonland, so this is very nice. I thought the updated version that they later released on Steam never captured the original feeling. The newer game is still fun but the older version is better, gameplay wise.

I haven't looked into Odin that much but I hear it's swell, so maybe I should!
