After being dumped, the owner of a record store details his top 5 breakups of all-time.

1. Listenbrainz isn’t owned by David Ellison.
2. Do I need a #2?

In all honesty, I don’t think I could live with myself and, at least currently, think I’d rather find a new career path.

Using AI is amoral and I will never use it. As a programmer, every day it feels like I’m increasingly the minority.

😆 That’s a good one!

Poster looks like the album art for Germ Free Adolescents. 🤘

That’s awesome!

Which era of singers did you see?

Seen Collective Soul 3 times. They bring so much energy and each show was different.

Helping test!!! We on the Jellyfin for Roku team have been begging peeps to help test code changes and releases before they are published for years. We get oh so little response, so it mostly ends up the two of us test each others changes on our 2 or 3 devices and if it works, it goes out.

We’re begging for testers. I’m sure other projects are as well.

I forever thought the chorus of Billy Squire’s song The Stoke was “Slow dance jug band.”

That’s how I sang it when I was a kid and I simply never reevaluated it as I grew up.

I’d add New York Dolls to that list too.

😞 He doesn’t like our Roku client.

Thank you very much, but please don’t feel like you have to!

I have some peeps donate $1 a month, and it’s awesome knowing they care enough about the stuff I’m working on to contribute!

👋I personally find AI amoral, so I don’t use it.

Models trained on open source software, contribute nothing back to those software repos, give zero authorship to those original authors, and packaged up to sell back to us programmers.

Not to mention the resource impact of their massive data centers.

I don’t want anything to do with it.

And after 25 years of professional programming, this is increasingly looking like the hill I’m going to die on.

High Fidelity: Top 5 reasons I’m not a good person

A Clockwork Orange: Are you human if you can’t choose to be bad?

I use mine as an MP3 player. I put Finamp on it, loaded it with music, and listen during the day.

It’s difficult to pick a favorite between Shirley Manson and Brody Dale.
