You can have whatever TLD you want, if you have a couple hundred thousand to blow.

I mean it’s always been the modus operandi at Micro$oft from day one when they fucked over the guy who wrote DOS.

Plenty of shady monopolistic things happened under Gates as well. The original Explorer antitrust lawsuit dates from the late 90s, the ACPI debacle, etc.

You say XMPP doesn’t work for the request, why not?

Have you never heard of OpenStreetMap?

That entirely depends who those people are. If you said in the early 2000s say: I’m training to join the army to go kill some Iraqis to bring “freedom”, you’d never get in trouble.

Absolutely not, NFS is a shared mount. Virtiofs is more complicated because it is emulating a block device.

There’s a ton of android clients Subtracks is nice too! Ultrasonic might not get regular updates, but it’s already very complete so there’s not much need.

I haven’t had much issues with gonic and album art, I guess YMMV

No one cares.

If you want pure streaming DAAP using OwnTone is a good alternative https://owntone.github.io/owntone-server/

Personally I use gonic with the Subsonic API, and Ultrasonic on Android. I haven’t noticed any buffering lag, but it does buffer and cache aggressively. For mobile connections I see that as a big plus since it’ll continue to play even if I loose signal for a while.

You could probably run Android on a Pi

Fucking tankies*, why are they all over this software that they created??

*Anyone left of liberals and liberal anarchist larpers.

I worry that means that someone can connect to my computer directly.

That’s how torrents work. Everytime you’re downloading so.ething you’re connecting to other people’s computers and letting other people connect to yours.

Torrents are P2P. You are downloading from other people who are seeding. If no one seeds, there’s nothing to download. Simple as that. Etiquette dictates you should seed more than you download to ensure the network stays lively.

SSL certs is so easy with let’s encrypt, that really shouldn’t be a blocker.

If you want something easy I think you have your answer with Signal

My point is that the lithium battery angle is a diversion and isn’t even relevant.

(CH₂N₂O₂)₃

Lithium batteries can ignite, but they don’t just explode like that.

These pagers don’t use lithium battery.
