Theme: [Accepting suggestions]

>Song submission rules/guidelines
Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.

On consoles it's a great experience almost always out of the box.
On PC it's rare for it to just work great, often takes some tuning.

most spectrum programmers making software for the original zx were using other better computers and sending their compiled code over via serial or something directly into speccy's ram. speccy retards have never got over that, especially the ones born yesterday that really believe people were typing out thousands of lines of code on a rubber keyboard

>>107897295
>but the C64 5.25 drive was soo slow.
this is false. commodore were forced to gimp the serial connection to make it backward compatible with an older system but a simple software patch enabled ridiculously fast transfer speeds. (action replay, epyx fastload, custom fastloaders used in games/demos etc.)

it sure is nice to have an LCD and not get burn in for a quarter of the price of "TRVE BLACKS"

having a 4K monitor with good color accuracy is way more important as a creator than FPS or anything like that, although a lot of cheap LCDs have great framerates still.

i was kind of waiting for the whole quantum dot QLED thing to take off, but i never looked into it and i'll probably never get another monitor until something bad happens to my $500 curvy dell.

NTA but I also see slopware engineering replacing manual coding. In the future you won't have any APIs that intake files, XML or JSON, it will be all one single AI interface. AI will be able to intake any kind of information and translate it for its needs for downstream systems. No need to create any glue code which is what majority of devs spend their time on today.

there's probably a low-stakes conspiracy going on at microsoft to dupe their shareholders where copilot is installed on every device so that the directors can say "copilot has 5 billion users!" simply because most people use windows and no one can opt-out of copilot unless they try really hard to get it off their hardware using registry tweaks.

Regardless we need a 13th month and make all months 28 days.
Every month should start on a Monday, always.
Every year will have one or two extra days at the beginning that are just to recover from your new year's hangover and don't count as days of the week so you have new year's eve on Sunday the 28th, then one or two extra days before going back to work on Monday the 1st.

Useful archiving efforts and other projects to help out with for people new to and interested in archiving:

HIGH priority (If you don't help archive these automatically, the data will probably be lost forever):

1. http://warrior.archiveteam.org/
Help out automatically archive things being shut down right now by running ArchiveTeam Warrior program (or specific containers) in the background
Requirements: Few GB of space, some bandwidth and small amount of CPU power, more info: https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/ArchiveTeam_Warrior

If you learn that a site or any online data is in danger of shutting down, read through this page and contact ArchiveTeam on their IRC if required in order to have it archived: https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Projects

2. Help out automatically forward URLs you browse that are not archived on https://archive.org to them for archival with a browser extension
https://github.com/internetarchive/wayback-machine-webextension
>>
MEDIUM priority (Important overall)

3. Seed torrents for as long as possible, rare data forever. Make sure to look up a guide for your router to PORT FORWARD your torrent client port, to substantially increase your upload (and your download) speed. In low population torrent swarms, if no one is port forwarded then you might not be able to connect to each other at all and exchange any data despite having it.
Requirements: As much or as little bandwitdh you want (you can set the limits if you need to)
https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent (Recommended client, especially to replace uTorrent)

4. Archive web pages you want to have a local copy of with a "Web Extension for saving a faithful copy of a complete web page in a single HTML file with a single click"
https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile

5. Archive videos with "GUI front-end for youtube-dl, yt-dlp and other compatible video downloaders"
https://github.com/axcore/tartube

6. "Capture or record any area of your screen and share it with a single press of a key"
https://github.com/ShareX/ShareX


Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>
8. Publish the data that you have archived that isn't easily or at all available online. You can easily create torrents yourself in your torrent client and then share the magnet link to it anywhere online for anyone to access and, as long as DHT (Distributed Hash Table, decentralized way to share torrents without the need for any specific tracker) is enabled in settings (on by default), your files will be searchable on DHT by DHT crawlers, local or online (for example https://btdig.com/, where you can actually also search for FILE NAMES within all DHT torrents)
(archive.org also creates torrents for all uploads automatically but their torrents shouldn't be relied on because of an error-prone implementation and since they can also break when more files are uploaded or if the item's metadata changes, which includes even getting a new comment on the item)


OTHER useful things:

- In your torrent client settings add the best trackers to be automatically added for all of your newly added torrents (helps more easily connect to peers, especially in obscure torrents)
https://github.com/ngosang/trackerslist

- If you have a torrent in your torrent client which is stuck at downloading metadata, you can see if the .torrent file containing the metadata was cached online. Copy the v1 torrent hash of your torrent and replace it in the link below which uses itorrents.net and btcache.me services to check:
https://downloadtorrentfile.com/hash/c8295ce630f2064f08440db1534e4992cfe4862a

- Look into running a node for I2P (anonymous private network within the global internet)
Requirements: Mostly bandwidth, more info: https://geti2p.net/en/faq

https://github.com/bitmagnet-io/bitmagnet

- "ArchiveBox is a powerful, self-hosted internet archiving solution to collect, save, and view websites offline"
https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox

- Look into donating your PC resources to be used more intensively in projects:
BOINC (Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing): https://boinc.berkeley.edu/projects.php


- Additional archiving tools: https://github.com/iipc/awesome-web-archiving

- Additional links to archiving and similar communities:
