Stuff that, back when you were in the economic clutches of your parents, you could but dream of having.

For me, there were several. The Dreamcast was the first, then the PS2, back in the early 2000s

More recently, I've been completely enthralled by the Amiga and what it offered back in the late 80s. That's a system that was never available around my parts (Brazil), even as a clone product or contraband

Title.

There's also a version on the Play Store, but you should definitely get the F-Droid version. It's the one with the full features enabled.

It lets you fully block some apps' access to the internet, including system apps. Depending on your phone manufacturer, like Xiaomi and Samsung, they can be extremely invasive and show ads on your stock apps.

I mean, pretending to be someone in another instance, "stealing" the username, is trivial. I see the more likely targets being instance admins or high profile users. Should we worry somewhat about this?

Since it doesn't require an image, I'll just leave something written:

I miss flash-like animations. "Infinite" resolution and low size, since they were vectors. I guess there's nothing that quite compares to it with HTML5?

A bit of context.

I know that, in a way, x86-64 architectures use CISC, "Complex Instruction Set", which means it has more commands than ARM, which is RISC, "Reduced Instruction Set". In a way, CISC is "halfway" into adding more functions to the language, though Assembly is still significantly less human readable than C

SectorLISP and SectorForth are interesting ideas that left me wondering, is it possible to make an architecture whose bare metal language is easier to understand and closer to higher level languages, rather than some variation of Assembly?

In part because it reminds me a bit of the old internet, with stuff being spread around everywhere.

Being "harder"* to understand than reddit, twitter or other big companies' services is also a good thing, because people should remember that they have a brain and they should use it.

• "harder" because not everyone understands the fediverse right away, since usability is extremely similar

PS: ^superscript doesn't work with phrases? at least not on preview^

TLDR of the article:

Google is showing ads outside of YT, in those side players that everyone hates while they just want to read articles, but counting them as normal views.

If anyone can offer any clues, I'd be very grateful. Bump if you're interested

Title. Have fun and patience, because downloads off archive are very slow.

Also, if y'all know a decent place to share some of that stuff again, comment so me and others can grab it off the archive and reup it elsewhere for easy access

EDIT: Not everything is still archived. Just tried to peruse Starfinder folder, and it has been deleted from Archive. Some other folders and files are still working

I saw another post asking how to set up Soulseek and, at first glance, it looks like those old P2P file sharing platforms, like eMule, Kazaa or Limewire.

As someone who used those during their peak, I'm well aware of the risks of getting unwanted stuff, not to mention that you're fully exposed within the network.

Does Soulseek deal with those issues, or are users exposed to those risks as well?

I mean, I know one way is using a crawler that loads a number of known pages and attempts to follow all its listed links, or at least the ones that lead to different top level domains, which is how I believe most engines started off

But how would you find your way out of "bubbles"? Let's say that, following all the links from the sites you started off, none point to abc.xyz. How could you discover that site otherwise?
