Nice, is that some sort of plucking/tapping I'm hearing on the guitar there? I'm definitely enjoying the added smoothness, whatever the effect is

Lately every search is 9-10 results, then "here's a bunch of other poo poo you might like (you won't like it and even if you did it's not what you're actually looking for but who gives a poo poo)". I hated that. My solution, since I only really use youtube on desktop Chrome, was to add it as a search engine with the following string: code:

Heath posted:I use Soulseek a lot. There's a lot of music I like that isn't available in physical formats or digitally, especially like weird Soviet era psych rock or Japanese 80s goth stuff etc. It's quite active. I never got into soulseek but am going hard old-internet-only and it’s been going really good. A search shows there are multiple clients and networks. Which ones do I use?

Are Soulseek and Gnutella et al still cesspits of viruses and malware like they used to be?

Nicotine+ is the best soulseek client in my experience. It’s the most active network for obscure music you can’t find anywhere else, and devil knows I spend way too much time in flea markets trying to find stuff.

I’ve hopped into IRC for the first time recently and am still getting my bearings. I’ve never messed with soulseek but I’m done with the new internet model and am reverting to old infrastructure hard. What’s old is new again.

Which song do you guys most closely associate with your early days of internet piracy? All this talk made this song pop into my head and remember installing Napster on all the highschool classroom computers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdN6PpPq0_I I also remember playing a cover of the roof is on fire as the school gymnasium burned and feeling like the internet had surely gotten as good as it was going to get. Edit: oh poo poo it wasn't a cover exactly https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChmUC0OysoU Cousin Todd fucked around with this message at 00:05 on Jul 4, 2023 |

Cousin Todd posted:Do people still use direct connect or DC++ or whatever? I used to just grab fuckin everything people shared back in the day. See above. I DCC'd some search results last night but, uhh, I guess the next books in the serieses I was looking for haven't been published yet.

It just seems like a regular 3rd party reddit app that also happens to be compatible with phone accessibility stuff. I know Reddit said they would exclude accessibility apps from the API changes, but is this what they meant?

Think new members went up a little bit, postings went up more and bans got thrown around because it's how we welcome newbies as we always do. Found the comment. deep dish peat moss posted:Here I went ahead and found the most recently registered user: Lemmy, kbin and Mastodon went up by thousands as everyone flocking there from Twitter as well as Reddit.

It's entirely feasible to play a continuous mix in the DJ software of your choice while just choosing songs off the top of your head and tabbing over to Soulseek to downloading them in the background.
