Why is this on c/Technology? Musk isn't twitter and twitter isn't tech news.

the phrase "opt-in consent" is sickening. if its not opt-in then, legally, it shouldn't be consent at all. I hate that we have to clarify.

Think of all the weird minigames that were only ever released on mobile; its Flash Games all over again! This is huge for emulation!

Why is this in c/Technology?

That's exactly what I thought would work, but it doesn't.

I'm using a regular off-the-shelf tape recorder, it doesnt have an electronic interface, I just press play and record manually.

I did use par2 and tar to generate redundancy, but I still need a way to locate it in the bytestream. Tar doesn't seem to reliably mark the start or end of files :/

I tried that first! But tar complains if it can't find the file header! So I still need to do some sort of packets. Unless you know some sort of workaround?

If they enable IMAP for all accounts that'd be awesome. I've been reluctant to use their mail system in case it just becomes another lock-in.

syncthing is the easy option if you have some files you always want to have on both. if you just want to access your desktop files from your phone, I recommend Cx File Explorer for Android, it's a file browser that supports various network file share protocols including Samba and SFTP.

I dont. Its honestly not great. I'd rather that effort went to preserving and repairing the existing tools of the free and open web -- the old protocols are extensible. Imagine if we had an RSS client with a "reblog" feature!

"Federation" adds overhead and honestly creates as many problems as it solves. It's not a selling point, its a price tag.
