I do not have the time to switch myself and my family to offline music, as much as I’d like to. We’re on Spotify but they keep getting ethically worse; and while streaming itself seems to be rife with unethical services, less bad would be nice. But.
- Apple Music doesn’t function properly on several of the platforms we use
- TIDAL lacks many smaller artists we listen to, killing about 15% or more of our library
- YouTube is a worse company than Spotify by a lot, IMOSuggestions?

@calcifer Bandcamp is the only store/service I don't have qualms about. I'm offline music again :(

@Gina that's basically what Linux live disks are for. 😉
Aeons ago, when I was at college, I kept a Knoppix disk in my bag for any time I had to use a college computer, specifically to avoid having to put up with their locked down systems.

@shidokidoki (I don't even know what VGen is, but have a boost, hopefully it'll reach more competent people ;-))

@jonathankoren but, I recall from reviews at the time that GEOS on PC was allegedly crazy great for low end hardware. Much faster and more responsive than early Windows versions even on faster hardware, and it could run on stuff Windows wouldn't touch (like an 8088). I vaguely even recall it had some kind of multitasking, which Windows and MacOS didn't have at the time.

@jonathankoren yeah, I used C64 GEOS for all my school work for at least a couple of years. Before that I had SpeedScript, the first version of which my dad and I typed in from a magazine. I seem to recall I used some other word processor on C128, but I don't remember what. Then it was Final Writer on Amiga.
But, GEOS has a certain nostalgic magic about it. I've tinkered with it more recently, and it is dog slow on a C64 with a real disk drive and no RAM expansion, I don't know how I endured.

@Paradox on a cursory look, she looks like she gotta pee

@swelljoe I used the c64 goes back in the day. It’s word processor was pretty cool. It was wysiwyg and could insert images. Light years above Bank Street Writer and whatever shareware word processor I usually used for papers. (The shareware one had a self updating minimap with layout, so that was something)

@Majden12 ho tagliato corto, così l'interazione si è spenta...
