I like how this topic, while discussing some pretty controversial stuff, has remained friendly. Thanks for that! Here is a video of people filming hospitals - showing that there are hardly any people at the hospitals when the media is putting out false news that there is all of these sick people the...

I just created an account here. It seems that after a few clicks through the forum, or when I try to write a post, I get kicked out and then am asked to login again (I am here for about 15 minutes and logged in already 5 times [edit: 6]). Is this a problem on my end? I run a fairly vanilla Debian S...

There is no issue with selling a Linux distribution. I agree there I find nothing morally wrong with selling a Linux distribution, as long as you are transparent about it and provide the full sources (including all configuration and build utilities). I think the GPL puts this fairly nicely: The “Co...

Sounds like you two are big into the community. Why Discogs over AllMusic?

No reason really, I never did an in-depth comparison (though a quick test does suggest discogs finds some more hits)

As they are for selling your music I have never bought anything from those sites, but I regularly use discogs because they are very good at keeping track of on which records individual artists appear. Especially in genres where there's a lot of collaboration and adhoc/short-lived groups that's a gr...

I like it, but we're on 3.3.0 and the plugin is for 3.2.x. Feel free to ping me when a new version comes out.

For some reason the icons sometimes look blurry. Reloading generally fixes it. I'll attach screenshots below. (For reference, I'm viewing on Firefox ESR, on Debian Testing.) screenshot1.pngscreenshot2.png I *think* that's just the theme getting a facelift, so the 'blurry' icons are cached images fr...

I'm not planning to do any original phpbb development, but you you know of a phpbb extension that provides this functionality I'd be happy to have a look if it can be enabled.

And we're back! Let me know if you see any problems.

The forum could use some various upgrades. I'm looking into this this evening, possibly there will be some unavailability while the forum is migrated to another host, or you may see the forum in readonly mode.

Interesting! I've also been switching to NixOS lately and am pretty happy with their approach, though I haven't done any music stuff on this machine yet.

Yes, unfortunately to combat spam the first few posts for each user need to be manually approved - we prevent quite a bit of spam reaching the forum that way. We try to do it quickly and after a couple of posts it'll be automatic

Might be nice to rename the topic to something like 'soundcloud spam' and remove references to the spammer, so we don't encourage them?
