I’m calling it now, “I bet you did numbers on twitter” will become a new insult on tumblr.com.

theplanetarysolars

I bet this did numbers on twitter

anthropologist-on-the-loose

Can now confirm through first hand experience that being accused of having migrated from twitter when I’ve been here for years is, in fact, a devastating insult

anthropologist-on-the-loose

That’s not an insult, that’s a declaration of war

tape casette recorders are compatible with literally every. single. thing. im out here living in 2095.

magnetictapedatastorage

things you can record (audio only), simply by lying to your computer, telling it that the tape recorder is actually a set of headphones:

discord call

podcast

documentary

radio and internet radio

music, from any source. without having to download it at all.

music you make on virtual pianos/etc

noteworthy news items (fireside esque, interviews, huge events)

stand-up comedy

rented or borrowed media

any other sound your pc can produce

and with a VCR you could do all of this AND have the visuals as well… but an audio cassette recorder is a good place to start, since they’re small and simple. I would not recommend a boombox, because those are large and nowadays all very, very bad quality.

Now you may be saying “how is any of this helpful, I want a digital file…” here’s the fucking magic. You go into Audacity (free program), and lie to it that the tape recorder is really a microphone. Then you hit record on Audacity, and hit play on the tape, and let it play at regular speed. Trim and export the digital file, and you’re doing gangbusters. You’re cooking with gas. You’re thinking with portals. You’ve won the internet.

Congratulations, you can “pirate”* anything you want, and literally no one can catch you, because you’re not downloading in the traditional sense. You’re streaming to an external device, and that device is recording what it receives. It’s exactly like taping a live tv show to a VHS. This is a very low-key and non-strenuous task for the computer, since your tape recorder does all the work.

*Is this piracy? No. Well- it’s time shifting. Sort of. Tell it to my Steely Dan albums. Tell it to my The Sims: Hot Date VG Soundtrack album.

OP, dropping surprising knowledge from across time and space:

moripartylove

Or you skip the cassette player part, buy an audio cable (which has 2 ends that both look like the end of a headphone cable:)

, connect one end to your computers audio output thingy (and lie to your computer that it’s a headphone) and the other to the audio input thingy (and pretend it’s a microphone), use Audacity as described above, e voilà! You can make a digital file of any online content you want.

It’s so adorable watching the kids learn about the advantages of an analogue world

Stuff like VoiceMeeter and other tools bye VB-Audio also help with that.

Wyrm in a String- Arctic Wyrm Arctic Wyrms thrive in frigid, wet locations. When threatened they will quickly freeze their thick fur to create spiny armor and shroud themselves in large clouds of mist from purified water expelled from their body.

I sometimes still see people tagging #please don't reblog but the post is rebloggable so just making sure you know about this feature:

It's in the post settings under the little gear wheel in the corner and the options are Anyone or No One

THIS IS SO IMPORTANT!

There ARE trolls who search and reblog posts tagged "DNR" "do not reblog" etc etc. Before, our only option was to not tag things, or if necessary bury the no-reblog tag after five other tags so they wouldn't come up in search.

We don't have to do that anymore. If you don't want something shared, click the gear icon. Set the option to No One. Tag your post with anything you want, because unless someone goes to the trouble of posting a screenshot, no one can share your post now.

And well, if someone does screen shot your post to share it, you need to block them at minimum.

It's a great way to prevent a post from "escaping containment". It's also good if your original post has been edited with corrections but the version being reblogged isn't that version. It can prevent people from dogpiling someone. There's literally so many reasons to use this feature, give it a go!!
