Damnit, I had him down as breaking the order in .025 mooches, and we're past that already. I guess the guy who bet on the 3am adderall-tweets is going to win the pool ...
Such bullshit since most of the recordings sound like shit. That’s the idea though. These 78 records are made of lac bug crap called shellac. The shellac degrades over time so the purpose is to retain the sound off of the recording of a format that is physically deteriorating and will not be around in the future. The project is to capture a unique sound experience that will not be available for future generations.
No streaming platform offers this. No streaming platform offers the ability to hear music ripped from vinyl, cassette, 4-track, or 8-track. Sony and Universal will never offer this. The user is only given one option usually for a song and who knows what master was used and how the audio engineer felt that day to master the track.
Also, we all know how Universal treats their masters…pathetic. So many of them are gone now thanks to their careless warehouse fire. If people don’t create offsite archives, who will? We can’t trust the record companies to do it!
Oh man, I hope so. I’d love to see another 50 charges get lumped on.
For a guy screaming about draining the swamp and Mexico sending all the bad hombres, he sure is a fucking crook surrounded by a real shit pile of criminal sycophants.
This only increases everyone’s piracy desires. I hope the internet archive can be moved to an overseas domain so the USA corporations can stop harrassing it.
WARSAW, Aug 11 (Reuters) - Polish police arrested five people suspected of being responsible for running a web platform that has been used to launch cyberattacks around the world, European policing agency Europol said on Friday.
Europol said LolekHosted.net, a bulletproof hosting service - meaning an opaque infrastructure registration site that helps cyber criminals to anonymously conduct intrusions - had all of its servers seized and was no longer in operation.
The United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) was also involved in the case, Europol said.
A botnet is a group of compromised internet-connected devices that can be manipulated to cause digital havoc.
Hackers build, buy and rent out botnets in order to conduct cyber crimes ranging from advertising fraud to large cyberattacks.
In a separate statement the Polish Central Cybercrime Bureau said hundreds of servers had been seized, as well as numerous pieces of computer equipment mobile phones and cryptocurrencies.
Privatization is encouraged by all the neoliberal governments, not just Russia, and they all want to dismantle any remaining vestiges of public ownership over the economy.
Holy shit this thread is a good example of why Lemmy is quite far from mainstream still. The army form one instance is strong here, quite fascinating and amusing to read.
