thanks for recommending kagi small web, just going through their random posts page i've already seen lots of nice stuff on there

looks quite nice, but i always find myself disappointed that all the content on the "small web" is just posting /about/ the small web, rather than doing anything interesting on it

14/30 of the posts on the top page are just about making websites

Looks interesting, would be a nicer article though if there was a demo with before/after to show the results, and why the previous ideas didn't work

for something dealing with audio you do need to play the audio really

no one cares what language the program is written in

you can make it as cheap or expensive as you want it to be. A big expensive one I'm sure would be better, but you can still be well-served by a £2 usb dongle off wish.com

it looks like one of those malware sites you see when clicking on a dodgy advert

a browser you at least have the ability to change though. if your ISP doesn't offer v6 you're SOL really

"I give permission to IBM, its customers, partners, and minions, to use JSLint for evil."

and all existing players will disappear off the face of the earth never to grace the listings of ebay again

come on man

people can complain about the dvd/bd scrambling restricting your freedoms and stopping you from making backups etc, and sure that's true

but if you just want to sit in front of the tv and watch a film you bought, idk what more you could ask for

The easiest way to play those BluRays back

buy a bd player? i don't know why you would settle on a usb rw drive when you could just have a box that plugs in via HDMI and works

4Chan has blocked the entire UK IP range

this isn't true

it's nice but i don't see why it has to be made and ran by the browser maker itself

their site seems to be down (hugged to death?) so here's another copy https://linuxjournal.rubdos.be/ljarchive/LJ/059/3111.html

what's the point if no one can see it

well maybe but they don't do a very good job at it

popular stuff that you could watch anywhere, you can pirate of course

but anything more obscure is impossible to find, or was there at one point but is now long gone

he finished the introduction paragraph and then the article ended

i think normally they just display a number on the screen

most of the time the article doesn't matter that much and you can still have interesting discussions of the topic at hand

it isn't open source but it's very good (foxit reader at least, dont know about the editor)
