Passed my QA checks, ship it!


Be careful of the astrophage...we don't need another lab leak!


we'd have to throw a hail mary


In looking at this software, it seems like it will fit my needs, but I thought I would ask before I try it: I listen to a wifi radio at night (ccrane model), but want to add my own stations. For example, there is a Neil Degrasse Tyson station that plays older episodes and Art Bell has one (that are obviously not live), but they are stations on the Internet that I can play from from my wifi player. For example, I would like to download 100 podcasts of a blogger and then have station1 be a random stream of all of their shows. I can imagine that I have a few stations of my favorite bloggers. Automatic downloading of RSS would be nice, but I can download manually if needed. Ideally if a stream has 0 listeners, it isn't using up my wifi bandwidth (I'll host a local home server) and only starts streaming once a connection connects. I will be the only one listening. Thoughts? Thanks!


If anyone would find a way to stream from beyond the grave - it would be Art.

I don’t believe in ghosts, ufos, demons, etc but I do enjoy listening to the podcast that has all his old shows.


I agree completely. Listing to Art Bell as an adolescent likely factors into why I’m a skeptic today. I went deep down the rabbit hole in the early dial-up days thanks to Art’s inspiration.

I never found anything truly convincing.


This is what I want. Just Youtube w/o ads, but it is $14/month/USD. TY Premium includes music; Spotify costs $12/month/USD. Premium is over priced. Youtube really doesn't want you to buy Premium, they want the data more than the money.


I think they want both...


No OP, but I stopped when they renamed themselves to AdPR, which might have been around the same time...


I couldn't find any information about this. Am I missing a joke or a point?


Probably a joke about them going from having hosts very-occasionally acknowledge the names of big sponsors, to straight-up reading ads for them. Between ads for sponsors and ads for other NPR content or begging me to give them my car, they're almost as ad-heavy as any other station now. Maybe are as ad-heavy, if you count hours spent on pledge drives per year.


What do you want do to after your MSC? It might be possible to set yourself up for the job/industry you want to enter...


Yeah good point. There's a nascent space industry emerging where I am, I think this has a promising future.


There is a setting to use vi this way (sorry not at computer), but I think it is ‘virtualedit’. I use it myself! I wish vscode would add it…


awesome and simple!!!


Not sure why you would believe the opinion of an evolutionary developmental biologist about Quantum Mechanics /s


Looking forward to v7 and intro docs that only use "even more" Modern Perl. For a bigger push, we should all volunteer on those "Do X in Y" language sites and add Perl examples. Same with Amazon Lambda and other opportunities where pick your language is available.

Also a modern OO seems nice, though not sure what is in it. Would also like to see a default async library (maybe POE, but I never used it and find the name a bit strange for a default...but then I like Tokio...) Not my area at all, but an opinionated way of async seems nice.
