However there is a facility that services can use that gets them notified of expired/updated cards so that they can automatically updat…This is a bit of thread necromancy, but I've been a bit out of the loop for a while, sp what's the deal with emusic these days? I see they're still doing the token thing, and now NFTs (which imo is like the token thing but worse.) …OK this seems to have worked. You'll probably see some things different but hopefully they're minor. Give me a shout if you notice something broken.
It went better than expected. Apparently I'd already done it some time in the past and forgot to document it. Time to see about upgrading the forum version then I guess.
I'm going to be doing an OS upgrade on the server underneath the forum. There'll be downtime, hopefully not much. If it goes swimmingly (hah) I might upgrade the forum version too, but no promises. That'll come soon anyway.

It's goal is basically to be an archive of everything digital (or digitalisable) that it can. You'll find films(Quote)
Better than the constant wind of Wellington, anyway! Though, at the moment coffee shops are takeaway only.
(Quote)I wonder if some of your tapes are worth digitising and putting on archive.org. Especially if they have additional things like news, ad breaks, and such still intact. More as a history project than a music distribution one …It's possible I've shared this before, I can't recall, but I keep coming back to this album. In particular this track from it: <…You've almost certainly heard a song by Psyche, they had one or two hits way back when.

It now looks as though the old domain emusers.org has been snapped up by one of those scammy sites that use it to advertise gambling or bitcoin or something, so I don't think it'll be coming back for a while and the current …OK, the forum has now moved about 18,000km around the planet.You will have seen some ever-changing errors and strange results for a while there, but things seem to have stabilised now. It's possible that if you have a bad ISP you mig…I'm preparing a server move and probably upgrade at the same time, assuming I fit them all in to this afternoon. So expect some weirdness in the next couple of hours.

As is synth-pop, so I'll have to go find your other list.

I dunno what's going on there. May have been some strange registrar thing.
Not my doing. It might be @xtrev did something. Last registry update was the 5th of March, but I can't tell if that's related. Don't rely on it though, I'm going to have to move se…
