A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected]. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

If all the music you listen to was shared on Napster in 1999, what do you think the affect would be on history? (thelemmy.club)

So... Funny story. My brother found System of a Downs Toxicity on Limewire or whatever months before it came out and burned me a copy. I listened to it non stop and bought the album when it came out.

Listening to the official Deer Dance I noticed that they changed the song just slightly between my brothers version and the release. That was pretty wild.

I wonder if the leaked version is still on the net anywhere.

I still have a leaked version of Cosmogramma that's slightly different.

Where did I leave that old CD binder? 🤔

What.cd was filled with obsessive people that try to archive every version of a song. I think they moved onto Redacted.

Also, check SoulSeek.
