Got tired of listening to internet radio with my browser, so I hacked together a quick little Perl script to present a menu of radio stations and play them with mplayer.

Here, have a thing!

Simply giving heroin addicts free heroin is significantly cheaper for the government than the costs of arresting, prosecuting, and imprisoning heroin users. It also reduces the amount of deaths from heroin abuse and reduces overall health spending as well.

A search engine for #peertube

"PeerTube Index is a centralized search engine for PeerTube videos. We run a crawler that visits PeerTube instances to find videos and new instances. All found videos are made searchable by their name. We exclude videos marked as Not Safe For Work (NSFW) for now.

This site is not affiliated to Framasoft, the maintainer of the PeerTube software. "

It's only fitting that we've got a Trump version, of course!

OnionShare

https://onionshare.org/

"Securely and anonymously share files of any size. A web server is started, making OnionShare accessible as a Tor Onion Service, potentially temporarily or in a stealthy manner, over the Internet. An unguessable address is generated and is shared for the recipient to open in the Tor Browser to download the files. No separate server or third party file-sharing service required. You host the files on your own computer."

#tor #filesharing #cyberlocker #hosting

There's a GUI, but the CLI is so good, just `onionshare somestuff.bin` and you get a temporary onion service serving a static password protected website with the file made available. By default once the file has been downloaded, everything shuts down.

I’m curious, how many times do I need to listen to an album on Spotify for the artist to receive as much money as if I’d have bought the CD
