His first time was shortly after he tried what those in the scene refer to as "spinning". All that violence happened while he was still high on the rush from that very first spin of his. It seemed like a "good trick" at the time, but like with many other a vulnerable youth before him and after him, it was nothing but a "gateway trick", that started him down a dark side-path in life, where he, hungry for more, would seek out dangerous knowledge on how to perform increasingly darker and darker "tricks". But that path inevitably leads to oblivion, for anyone who takes it. He ended up destroying not only those he loved, as well as many innocents who happened to be in the wrong place, at the wrong time, along the way, until his addiction to these tricks would eventually claim its final victim - namely himself.

And that's why you should always say "NO!" to spinning! It might seem tempting and harmless, when a friend offers you just a little spin, right? But that person is not your friend, and that spin is anything but harmless. So, take the Spin-Free Pledge with me and all of your friends today, and you will be able to take home your very own SpinNot™ diploma to hang on your wall. And when some hoodlum on the street offers you a spin, remember these words, which will surely make him reevaluate his own life decisions in quiet shame, as you loudly and proudly tell him:

Spinning - not even once!

Correct, @horse_battery_staple@lemmy.world!

Btw, a protip - it's super insecure to make your username be the same as your password!

Use OBS for streaming. It's a great FOSS piece of software. You generally don't stream your whole desktop, but instead make a composite of different sources, such as different windows. Start experimenting with it if, if you want to start streaming soon. Same for you, @boredsquirrel@slrpnk.net!

And besides QMMP, Audacious also traces its code roots back to XMMS.

Whether that's the case or not, I think it is secondary to the fact that he clearly says on the website that he definitely doesn't want it to go open source, for as long as he is working on it.

I don't know. Try visualising him with Milkdrop.

What a shame that it isn't open source.

I'll happily continue to use Audacious with a Winamp skin.

This might be philosophical, but I think a lot of people make a mistake, when they assume that just because something is made up, it somehow makes that thing less real, and less of an obstacle to overcome. The quality of being made up says something about a thing's origin, not about its level of realness.

As stated, that notion might be philosophical, but following it's own rules, that doesn't impact the degree to which it, as with any other idea, exists as a thing that has the quality of realness (distinct from truth value) to it.

Yes, that's the issue.

While I was still on Windows, the killer feature that kept WinRar installed, instead of only using 7zip, was the simple fact that its file explorer supported hotkeys like Ctrl+C, and that you could seamlessly copy files to and from Windows' file explorer.

I didn't hear or see. Do you have a link, or care to elaborate?

ISPs give special preference to speedtest.net, so that their metrics will look better. Which means it rarely reflects actual reality. Theres a good chance this test is closer to the actual speeds you're getting everywhere but on speedtest.net.
