Me, too. I don’t know why. I assume TechCrunch deleted the 2003 article, but that shouldn’t impact a snapshot.

TechCrunch has that article tagged as “evergreens”, which I think is their code for “we can probably get away with reposting this later and pretending it’s brand new.”

Case in point, this article was published in 2023.

Person: My great-grandfather was Korean.
The Asian Council: spends two minutes deliberating

I love this thread. It’s like a quick list for who to block.

I went down a retro pc gaming rabbit hole a while ago. It was the one game I couldn’t get working on my machine. Feels good that something useful came out of it

Leadfoot?

Sounds like Spelling Jungle. I remember that game had the dumbest ending - something about leaving the hose faucet on.

I don’t mean SimAnts.

Microsoft Ants came out a few years later, on the Microsoft Gaming Zone.

This is by far the largest music metadata database that is publicly available. For comparison, we have 256 million tracks, while others have 50-150 million. Our data is well-annotated: MusicBrainz has 5 million unique ISRCs, while our database has 186 million.

Does this mean the MusicBrainz database will soon go from 5 million to 186 million tracks?

I don’t use any of these suggestions, but the ones I keep hearing *about are Quik and Fossify Messages.

Edit: accidentally a word

At long last, we have created the Torment Nexus…

Discord-compatible (Use all your custom clients/bots with minimal changes)

I was excited at first, because I thought I could still chat with friends who won’t leave Discord.

If you’re promoting Linux, I wouldn’t teach it at all.

Just show yourself doing stuff on the computer like a normal person on Windows what Windows used to be like.

The biggest hurdle for most users is (I think) the mistaken belief that Linux must be complicated.

Because the steps for Xitter were :

1. Want a Xitter
2. Go to Xitter
3. Create an account
4. Enjoy(?) Xitter

Even one extra step that adds friction can lead to you just not doing the thing.

Mega-corpos spend billions to reduce the number of steps to your wallet, because they make it back tenfold.

Update: 8 hours later, no change.

Update: Yep, still nothing.

I’ll check again after 24 hours to see if Lemmy does anything.

The Linux Experiment showed content, but Coffeezilla and Louis Rossman show empty for some reason.
