Threema.ch already do this. Maybe that’s the answer?

I wonder what that looks like fleshed out a little, though. Is that a mandatory or voluntary payment? And by paying for what they use is that per message or per month like a subscription?

But do we trust entities that depend on our governments for funding? It could be argued that they’re fundamentally compromised.

Maybe within whatever bubble this article is aimed at, but I think it will be the vast minority who get that. But, we should push for it all around the world.

Upvoted bc VC eventually means enshittifiication. But with xz getting back-doored recently, what is the middle ground that keeps these things sustainable financially and operationally?

Does that third also take into account any differences in manufacturing them? In other words, the entire lifecycle.

I remember learning to play pitch-and-putt (simplified golf) and when I finally got the swing right, there was a “thunk” sound twice or three times as my ball bounced from tree trunk to tree trunk. It was like some kind of nature-based pinball. I couldn’t believe it. When the disbelief passed later that day I couldn’t stop laughing.

Some very informative and leading articles pop up from that site. I learned a lot about indigenous issues (inflicted by settlers) there. Was really surprised given the associations I have with the brand.

 

I’m struggling to pan the chorus of my song. It only has drums, bass, one slightly distorted guitar and a lead vocal.

The drums have a nice default panning spread from L-R in the DAW I’m using (Logic). But the convention I’m reading online recommends putting bass and vocal in the centre.

My question is, what do I do with the guitar, which is just playing a power chord at the beginning of each bar.

I like songs that fill the stereo spectrum but due to the composition, this one seems narrow by comparison.

I’ve read about stereo expanders but I’m not sure when to sure them. I was also thinking that I could somehow split the guitar into two tracks by frequency and pan those differently. Not sure how to go about that yet and then not sure if I would need to do the same for vocals in that case.

Any suggestions on how to make the mix a bit more exciting without changing the composition ?

 

Win98SE is getting stuck at the boot screen after installation. I don't personally see anything in the logs that indicates what the issue may be, but I'm a novice anyway.

Does anyone have settings they can share, in case I'm not doing something right. This is the tutorial I'm following: https://jensd.be/1640/windows/run-windows-98-se-on-a-modern-mac-with-m1

Can anyone who has experience with both share a recommendation? I’m interested in the user side of things for ebooks (no comics) but also ease of installation and maintenance.

I currently use Calibre-web and while it runs well, I find it cumbersome to organize my books through it.

Edit: great responses, thank you. I do like the idea of just having the epubs in a folder and share those but at least on my setup, the desktop Calibrw app doesn’t open libraries that are mounted from remote locations. They also advise against it.

So for now I guess it’s a choice between a local folder or calibre -web
