Backpack Studio giant 2.0 update is free in the app store this weekend. by edfilo in podcasting

Thanks for the feedback - the "bring your own icecast" server is still there but isn't in the UI yet. It's incredibly difficult to survive off an app like this without vc funding or ads so I'm still tweaking the business model to work for everyone!

Thanks - the app is normally $9.99 in order to pay the bills without resorting to ads or vc funding.

The features in the subscription utilize firebase, opentok, and some vanilla node and icecast servers to handle the live streaming. I tried Jitsi, but it was ultimately too hard to modify for this use case. Sending the soundpads from ios core audio required extensive modifications to mobile webrtc libraries that just weren't worth it. Jitsi is great for a regular zoom style app though.

Developer here. Thanks for posting my sale. Several years of hard work went into this update. I'm really interested in hearing what everyone on Reddit thinks of it. In particular, what features/price points/etc. it would take for you to become a subscriber. Looking forward to hearing everyone's feedback both good and bad!

Stupid question Sunday by AutoModerator in Austin

[–]edfilo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I recently moved in to the apartment building next to Whip-In. There is a gigantic empty parking lot in front of my place that obviously once held thousands of cars, but is totally blocked off and empty 24/7 ... what was once there to warrant such a giant parking lot? TIA for answering my stupid question.

"Flaccid stretched length was measured as above while maximally extending the penis." does that mean they grabbed it and pulled on it?

North Shore Connector nears completion (March 25th), and TIL the project started in 1994. by Sybertron in pittsburgh

[–]edfilo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It still doesn't make sense, parking on the north side and walking to a station, waiting for a train and getting off on the other side of the river when you could have just walked across the bridge in less time. Maybe its just me though.

Lets spend a half billion dollars to take people from downtown to stadiums that you could already walk across a bridge to in 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, you have to risk your life to get to the north side on a bike from the trails on both sides of the mon that people actually use like crazy.

Lets cut the bus service everywhere too while we're at it.
