    I remember many similar cycles of having different browsers open side-by-side, and trying to pinpoint (without the developer tools we know and love today) the exact reason why one …

    I think it's broken, yeah. I think the whole "art for money" thing doesn't make sense in general and something else has to be figured out. Artists should be able to survive without…

    Let me pay $0.1 for each episode I watch, make everything available and route to the right entity that should be paid and then offer one cross-platform client that everyone pooled …

    LED walls are cool (and cheap via China) otherwise, and you can start small and then expand if you want since it's relatively modular, just a bunch of square LED panels linked toge…
