humans are so funny. we invented digital audio, and we thought we'd finally banished that analogue demon, generation loss. but then we invented digital distribution, and since bandwidth and disk space are expensive, we invented a new kind of generation loss, and we suffer again

@hikari i don't think we suffer that much though? except on meme images

@whitequark so much content is only ever published in lossy form, and the original copy of everything eventually disappears

@hikari @whitequark Me [posting from a domain that will go away if I die]: Yes I agree people should use more permanent forms of publishing
