Or Canada. It’s pretty huge, like the second biggest country after Russia.

A specific event in 2001 first triggered the growth, then a couple of jackass presidents made it worse.

Yup 5-6 floppies and if one failed you could try to go back and copy one, but usually had to start over.

I got the Mac copy of Photoshop 4 from my high school this way with .sit files. It was like second to last floppy that failed (probably an ok AOL disk) and I had to go back the next day and copy it again. But it worked!

Not long after that a friend of mine got a ZIP drive, but it wasn’t SCSI, so it didn’t work with my computer. I didn’t get one until college (essential for a graphic designer in the late 90s).

If you can find a playlist of videos you can download whole lists with ytdlp.

We have Lemmy communities already…

Do any of the bots that repost subreddits in Lemmy reverse and post Lemmy communities to reddit?

I’m sure Reddit would ban it if it noticed, but might be a way to attract users here for niche communities.

I think KEKA.app supports split archives. Haven’t used it in a while though.

Depends on if they digitized the YouTube vids from the original Betacam broadcast tapes.

I’m guessing a bit here, but it was a really dominant format at the time, and in the later years of the series, would have been a digital format at 720x486 resolution.

Sort of vaguely op-art. Or postmodern brutalist perhaps.

It could be a bit better thought out to improve readability and find a more pleasing interaction between the letter and logo elements, but it’s an interesting idea to explore further I think.

Nebula/curiosity stream maybe? Patreon is interesting for this too, and is helping a lot of podcasters and video creators (more) directly.

Wow, so there are color, location and timing options that can be coded into these.

Sounds like something the VLC maintainers should add support for.

Yeah or else quiver-full/mormon family. Not that there’s really a difference between those and cults.

If it was encoded as super low framerate 360deg video files and you just seek to the place in the stream that matches the coordinates, it could use kits stage and bandwidth than other solutions, but it’s still going to be a lot of bytes.

Mac users are here, bu I get all my stuff from MSJ, is a lot faster and has been going for decades, so I find it more trustworthy.

I was on brokenstones for a long time too, but stopped a bit before it imploded worth a bad admin or moderator recently.

It would be best to convert it to full employee ownership if it isn’t yet. As long as a steady stream of good employees keeps revolving in it should be a stable company that provides for its employees and customers.

Cool, TIL, just curious about what happens to the posts you’ve made, if you delete your old account?

Are our accounts portable yet? Until they are most people (especially contributors used to the fake internet points system) are going to stick with their first account with fake internet points.

Thanks for that nightmare fuel.

Netflix DVD service is missed.

Yeah the DMCA really fucked things up for creative work. It’s way too easy to take down things you don’t like fraudulently.
