@PurpCat @nyanide @ElDeadKennedy @ooignignoktoo Streaming in general is a disaster for many, many, many reasons

You basically end up watching the same stuff if you aren't forced, like you did for TV

Having an always playing TV was super kino for playing JRPGs and stuff. Without it, I don't want to set something up that I will only half-watch. It's a me problem, but with TV, it was playing whether you liked it or not. No pause, no nothing. So you took what you get

Also content was limited, so you got what you'e got, and people around would have watched the same thing you did

#fedijobs #GetFediHired #lisp
I am contracting a Common Lisp hacker for low-level work of choice:
-better thread scheduler, coupled with bare NUMA awareness
-a compiler optimization, like moving type transformations into the backend or adding the peephole pass
-TLAB support (I have most of it written)
-Making the thing boot on real hardware with PCI device detection (i.e no skipping with no-detect or UEFI boot)
-Overall fixing the driver subsystem so things like specific device combinations in QEMU don't crash
-NVME driver (could re-use virtio-block code, probably needs the two before)
-basic GLSL->TGSI compiler (needed for Trial port)
-concurrency subsystem improvements

Will pay up to $300, XMR only (unless you live in CIS), can do upfront if you have reputationn

What's your preferred VPS (Virtual Private Server) host and why? Going to move my site off the free tier AWS instance before they start charging, so may as well see what people like using these days for their personal hosting.

I'm in the western US, so ideally something where I can get a VPS geographically near me.

Threat actors on X are exploiting the news around Ross Ulbricht to direct unsuspecting users to a Telegram channel that tricks them into executing PowerShell code that infects them with malware.

There is absolutely ZERO reason to put something as simple as a >5 sec sound sample under the CC-BY-NC or any other non-commercial license. If you really hate the idea of someone profiting off of your precious audio clip, then maybe you shouldn't be releasing them in the first place.

>b-but just ask them they might negotiate a deal where they can get a cut

If they truly want that, then they should say so in the description, and give out contact information, but most of the time, they don't, and it's not worth paying just to be able to use a short audio clip for a commercial project. It took you five seconds to make those samples there wasn't that much effort put into them.

If you want to make money creating stock assets, start a Patreon or something like that. All non-commercial license do is limit potential users of your assets, especially if they are small.

If Ross Ulbricht truly got to keep all his crypto (which is in the billions) he should use all of that to start a seasteading society. That way, he can carry out his libertarian dream legally.
