Anna's Archive backed up Spotify. They got 99.9% of metadata, and 300TB of music representing 86 million tracks - original 160kbps OGG for tracks with popularity>0, and re-encoded 75kbps for popularity=0. absolutely wild project.
the metadata in particular is a hugely useful data source. MusicBrainz catalogues 5 million unique ISRCs (like ISBNs but for music releases), whereas this archive has a whopping 186 million.

this solves a major problem I ran into when writing automation tools for maintaining my own music library: the metadata sources are missing so much stuff, so you generally end up needing to query the Spotify API, which isn't sustainable. even with it inherently being a snapshot in time, archived metadata solves a ton of headaches.

@gsuberland damn 300tb is like. An amount you could feasibly just store at home

@halcy @gsuberland it is, if you have 10k-15k spare money. Plus don’t shy away from like extra 200 to 300W home extra heating 24/7.
It’s not that bad, could als just get you 256GB of latest RAM and top tier GPU. Or 2 top spec MBP. It is bad.

@friedrich @halcy with recertified enterprise disks and second hand HBAs you could store this for a lot less than 10k.

@gsuberland @friedrich @halcy never underestimate the power of walking into a microcenter and looking for sales on the cheapest, slowest barracudas, you can generally get the 4tb ones around $50.

Biblioteca sponsorizzata?
@torino - La nuova biblioteca civica di Torino è messa male ancora prima di essere pronta.

@d10c4n3 @andre123 questo dipende molto dal cosa si intende per immortale, perché ad esempio se l'unica cosa di cui sai che non morirai è la vecchiaia, il dubbio di poter morire di altro (inclusa la morte termica dell'universo) rimane.

@oblomov
Oltre alla questione sostentamento (non puoi morire di fame ma la soffri lo stesso?) e quelle "burocratiche", credo che un nodo fondamentale sarebbe quello dei figl*, o più in generale la riproduzione umana.
Si è condannati a veder morire la propria discendenza? O anch'essa è immortale e si procede fino a saturazione delle possibilità di sostentamento? La riproduzione avrebbe lo stesso senso e significato se si vivesse per sempre? O chi è immortale è anche sterile? E se fosse l'immortalità, e non la vecchiaia, ad essere una malattia?
È un'idea che offre molti spunti interessanti, e non è un caso che sia esplorata in tanti racconti fantastici. :)

@stefano Congratulations on the new projects! Although I wonder when you sandpapered your throat to be able to make that comparison

@pfefferle@mastodon.social Mastodon doesn't support soft deletes, so that's why both soft and hard deletes federate out a Delete.
Are you running into issues?

Onestamente, non ci avevo pensato

This morning, four calls. My throat feels like it’s been scrubbed with sandpaper, but three new projects ranging from cloud systems to BSDs. Definitely worth it.
