    For music something like Navidrome is much better, IMO. But you could easily host it in addition to the former two, not instead.

    Oh, and you can combine the subscription to Tidal with yar har by umm… permanently caching the songs offline by means of 3rd party tools. It might seem pointless at first glance, but having the music stored on your server ensures you’ll keep having it, while you still can spontaneously explore new stuff on Tidal.






  • Ngl, that second meme is so bad, it hurts me physically. “iPad” for workstation OS? If they meant iPadOS, it would’ve been “iOS” at the time anyone would consider Vista.
    Linux is “unlimited”? As in “open source”?

    And honestly, in early 2010s, when Vista was still relevant, Linux wasn’t really a choice yet (for the vast majority). I know, cause I tried.

    I’m aware of some DOS games that did it. For example 1989 Prince of Persia had you enter the exact character (page, line, word) from the manual.

    On PS1 you’d probably never complete Metal Gear Solid (1998), cause you need to call somebody on the codec, but the frequency was on the box cover.


  • They are right, it was used for that. Sometimes some key information for progress would be in the manual or on the box. Luckily it wasn’t super popular on consoles, due to the notion that it wasn’t as easy to pirate on consoles as it was on home computers, where you could just copy the floppy/CD.
