What does that mean for me/for the subscribers to the old feed? Loss of listenership or no npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1pa0…pfyr @npub1ln5…xyw6 I mean when I set that up that was a quick and actually easy and affordable option for setting up a little experiment. I didn't expect to actually want to keep doing a radio show. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V I asked this before but this time i am more serious. What were the steps form moving away from a show just hosted on DigitalOcean? npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V So which browser are you supposed to use with splitkit? On firefox i just see a register page where nothing happens. and Google Chrome just shows a white page entirely. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a @npub1pa0…pfyr alby almost is npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1h4n…fruy why Nix? npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V I like that the fountain transcript thing transcribed the show title as "Barely Fun Show" which is probably fair. At least for episode 6 npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V Actual question or suggestion maybe npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub19fy…n5nv @npub1drg…7yxw @npub1pfz…tp3u yea currently it to me seems like the EU model is not as good as it could be. When it's divides countries arguing about who will take in refugees or whatever thing is happening that affects the entire European area. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1drg…7yxw @npub1pfz…tp3u @npub19fy…n5nv no we cant handle 10 million new people of either legal or illegal variety suddenly being here obviously. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub19fy…n5nv @npub1pfz…tp3u reading this after I wrote my explanation of how. Germany can not take up debt, the statutory health system makes a profit most years, and how the US has way way higher debt while providing a lot less stuff to the citizens.... npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1drg…7yxw @npub1pfz…tp3u @npub19fy…n5nv yea nothing is free. But if you look at the numbers for statutory healthcare in Germany you see in most years it actually makes 1 to 4 billion € profit. Except for yes 2021 where it lost almost 7 billion. The Eurosystem releases about 6% of new bills every year on average. Sometimes they make more sometimes they destroy old ones. But if you look at government debt, Germany has only 59% worth of the gdp as debt. USA has 123% of gdp as debt. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1a73…7y6q well yea mtv probably was popular here too. but its gonna have german hosts on it wouldnt it npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1a73…7y6q i guess people may know him in the US then? Certainly I wouldn't expect many Germans to recognise the name. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1a73…7y6q lol. does he count as a celebrity? i never heard of him before until... probably like on Buzzcast they mentioned the podcast namespace when it started. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub19fy…n5nv @npub1kt3…pgcv Idunno. Just seems like a capitalism thing. Why not make money off women who want to be single but have a child or lesbians I guess. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub19fy…n5nv @npub1pfz…tp3u I mean yeah we have illegal people living here too. But I don't think that is super big of a problem. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub19fy…n5nv @npub1pfz…tp3u Germany has both though. Some overregulated things but then also massive underregulated things in other areas. But in general a lot of bureaucracy yes. That is getting better though. Just very slowly. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub19fy…n5nv @npub1pfz…tp3u also saying Europe is not a world power anymore seems like a bit of a stretch. As does Europe being out of money. And then also being able to have a good life matters more than being a world power. The pandemic and now that thst is over the war are not helping though. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub19fy…n5nv @npub1pfz…tp3u lol state sponsored healthcare gets you the high cost? npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub19fy…n5nv @npub1pfz…tp3u ok and how has not losing your life-savings in months because you got cancer destroyed Europe then? npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub19fy…n5nv @npub1pfz…tp3u what socialism though? npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1dwu…hc2f I mean, not really though. Because real bitcoin is only what happens on the blockchain. Lightning transactions do not happen on the chain until a channel is closed. So for as long as the channel is not closed, those transactions are not "real". npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1j94…mea9 yea but what if its 2 hours long and just a single song is played npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V I don't know where this would be, but if you listen to a podcast with music, is there currently a way for chapters or time splits to tell the app to set the speed to 1x ? npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a idunno. i am starting to get annoyed with Umbrel. at least a bit. because now, the machine itself was running completely fine. but anything relating to umbrel was not running when i tried looking at my node, or ipfs podcasting. or anything. I am gonna see if i can fix that but idunno. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a it is very likely that I will just give up, backup the unbrel folder and just install Leap on it. I haven't used Ubuntu a lot in a while and never before pure debian. Only suse things. And Debian is less fun to me than I thought it would be to try out. If it also crashes on this different system. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a it's a second generation core i5 chip with 14 gigs of ram. Running Debian 12 on a sata ssd. Very snappy actually. Would be usable for random every day tasks. And while running it seems to do a good job. Snappy. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a I believe that. But I am having unrelated issues I believe. That machine just locks up after about 20 hours I believe. It just stops. Not responding to ssh, pings, keyboard or mouse input directly either. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a I have umbrel set up and running. It has helipad on it already. That's what you opened the channel to. I just don't trust that system itself yet. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a oh. Nice. Does helipad also show the full amount that was boosted then? npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a how did you do this btw? Just manually or is there a tool for this. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a hopefully this makes some music company executive cry npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1ln5…xyw6 I mean sure, i agree I guess but "stable, predictable way" is so boring isn't it.😜 npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V So how do we actually prove that a song is original? If I just take something i got from Spotify and put it on the podcastindex as a song, bad things will happen. Same with cover music. wont it? npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1ln5…xyw6 That seems inoptimal. Thinking that if someone got a .cue file to VTS thing going, you can easily play 2 things at once in some DJ software. at least for a few seconds. as a transition. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V What happens when you play songs and they overlap for a bit? you cant have 2 value splits at the same time, can you? npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a I am already looking into something like a rode caster duo tho. I have been wanting another mic for a long time. I quickly realised this condenser nt USB mic picks up every single thing ever. I don't like it because of that reason. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a yes splitkit is pretty good once you figure it out. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a and then for the time splits I put the video from obs into kdenlive and looked where I played what song and then typed it into split kit manually. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a well for the first episode I just used OBS Studio to record a video of nothing and audio of desktop and my mic... and then I literally just had a wavlake firefox window open and vlc with my talkover music folder. Also a pluse audio volume control window because i wanted to turn the songs down... although that reset each time a new song started. npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1df6…ns3a @npub1g6p…dgtx npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V @npub1ln5…xyw6 6567390 npub199q7hjnj7xdmmzw29hkkpz675eztjlg6v8h6m7mm6t2tf5mkaa2saxtw99 Silas V So it probably takes a bit longer to get episodes and everything to show up on the index after it has been added..
