Use OBS for streaming. It's a great FOSS piece of software. You generally don't stream your whole desktop, but instead make a composite of different sources, such as different windows. Start experimenting with it if, if you want to start streaming soon. Same for you, @boredsquirrel@slrpnk.net!

And besides QMMP, Audacious also traces its code roots back to XMMS.

Whether that's the case or not, I think it is secondary to the fact that he clearly says on the website that he definitely doesn't want it to go open source, for as long as he is working on it.

I don't know. Try visualising him with Milkdrop.

What a shame that it isn't open source.

I'll happily continue to use Audacious with a Winamp skin.

Yes, that's the issue.

While I was still on Windows, the killer feature that kept WinRar installed, instead of only using 7zip, was the simple fact that its file explorer supported hotkeys like Ctrl+C, and that you could seamlessly copy files to and from Windows' file explorer.

I didn't hear or see. Do you have a link, or care to elaborate?

ISPs give special preference to speedtest.net, so that their metrics will look better. Which means it rarely reflects actual reality. Theres a good chance this test is closer to the actual speeds you're getting everywhere but on speedtest.net.

If you were a teenager, back when online porn were all pay sites, and so you were using Kazaa/Limewire instead, then you know.

TF2 lawyers, it would seem.
Their legal Offense has evidently been workgrouped by Scout, Soldier and Pyro, judging by this particular legal argument. To think the Mercenaries would turn on their creator... Well, they're mercenaries!

Absolutely, but the chain of trust, in a way, doesn't start with the admin - only the explicit chain does. Implicitly, the chain of trust starts with all of us. We collectively decide if any given chain is trustworthy or not, and abuse of power will undoubtedly be very hard to keep hidden for long. If it becomes apparent that any given chain have become untrustworthy, we will cast off those chains. We can broke new bonds of trust, to replace chains that have broken entirely.

It's a good system, because started a new chain should be incredibly easy. It's really just a refined version of the web rings of old, presented in a catalogue form. It's pretty great!
