I had a little self made amp as well. That thing could go loud, you had to be careful (I messed up the resistor or knob that controlled the volume and instead used the computer settings because $ to order another part). 30% was very loud ๐Ÿ˜€

    ... Software no longer needs to be preserved. Systems will be created, tested and discarded naturally.

    By far the dumbest word vomit take on software I've seen in a while. Who wouldn't want to have tax systems and critical infrastructure being treated like slop with no accountability, and many rewrites because "software is no longer scarce"...

    They more often than torrents do have the wrong tags when its not English music. Took me way too many emails to google music and Spotify before they stopped screaming at me with ALL CAPS on one album and before removing the dots after album track names (1. Track Name), not to mention the ones named TRACK 1, etc.

    People also seriously over estimate the effort required to install an android auto/car play stereo and backup camera. One adapter later and green wire connects to green, red to red, etc. most of the work goes to watching videos on how to do it to get a clearer picture. Not to mention that even for something on the fancier side you pay perhaps one car payment and you are done vs signing up for another 5 years of monthly misery.

    If you leave it up to them, they'll start burning that toxic cheap marine diesel to power the generators. Its not like its hard to get some states to give you exceptions for pollution with some key donations.

    Noise pollution around data centers is very bad already based on some news reports, they'll push the limits to save a dollar.
