Is it github.com/Mastermindzh/tidal-hifi? That gives you get lossless audio on Linux through electron if you support widevine, among other features
- Comment on Spotify CEO Daniel Ek surprised at negative impact of laying off 1,500 Spotify employees 1 week ago:
Hmm, I don’t use the feature frequently, but it hasn’t failed on me. I can say that I use CarPlay frequently, and Tidal’s CarPlay implementation is a thousand times more reliable than Spotify, so when it comes to device based implementations they seem to have done a great job.
Looks like they offer a free trial, offer.tidal.com so I would say probably best to pilot it with that and see if it suites your needs
- Comment on Spotify CEO Daniel Ek surprised at negative impact of laying off 1,500 Spotify employees 2 weeks ago:
Yeah that was part of my motivation as well. I’m unsure how that will change now with their significant price drop, I was happy paying the previous prices, as it was like the cost of buying 3 $10 CDs a month, and I listened to considerably more music than that
- Comment on Spotify CEO Daniel Ek surprised at negative impact of laying off 1,500 Spotify employees 2 weeks ago:
Yeah you can do the same thing as Spotify and change the output on the fly within the app
- Comment on Spotify CEO Daniel Ek surprised at negative impact of laying off 1,500 Spotify employees 2 weeks ago:
I switched to tidal. Recently had a huge price drop to compete with Spotify and Apple Music. It’s not perfect, but it has lossless audio, and works well for my needs
- Comment on Spotify CEO Daniel Ek surprised at negative impact of laying off 1,500 Spotify employees 2 weeks ago:
Once Spotify changed their entire UI to focus on engagement instead of a good UX, I switched to another service. I wish the best for those employees that were laid off, and the worst for a CEO driven by profit above all else

- Comment on Education 2 weeks ago:
Well if you were a real American homeless person you’d just pull yourself up by your bootstraps and learn to sleep sitting upright with your eyes open while saying “yes sir” to the officers who consistently harassed you

I would imagine media would have loved to report on an additional element of the story, but

The JFK quote here is perfect. A single line that evaluates exactly what is happening. And if violent protests are to occur, everyone will shake their heads and go “this isn’t America!”

Or if homeless people are committing a crime by being homeless

But props to the Columbia U staff for walking out. In other universities this was just par for the course, and the faculty stayed put as students were arrested

- Comment on ‘Meta is out of options’: EU regulators reject its privacy fee for Facebook and Instagram 3 weeks ago:
Prior to joining Meta, she was a partner working on technology issues and co-chair of Covington & Burling’s global data practice. Erin collaborates with policymakers and experts on Meta’s products and features and is deeply involved in legislative and regulatory efforts around data protection, data portability, advertising, and Al.
E.g. ex, lawyer working for a firm that ensured companies could sell and use as much data as possible and defended them if they got sued or fined. Now in charge of “Privacy,” e.g. making sure Meta can sell and use as much private data as possible. It’s literal doublespeak

It would have to run steamos or something the complexity of all the always-online launchers that modern triple a games has is something that steam handles well, and likely a huge trip up point on any frontend slapped on a windows pc
