Guess how much money the artists get when you do that?

That way the artists get even less than with Spotify.

They have good traffic designs in a lot of places but also horrible multiple lane passways without protection. And a significant minority of Finnish drivers break the law by not stopping on a crosswalk when other cars have stopped on the same crosswalk.

Also there have been plenty of near misses due to electric scooters. Children and drunkards are being extremely reckless with those, and in fact a 15-year old girl died near the second largest city Tampere just this summer when she crashed into a car (not publicized yet whose fault this was legally).

But good luck Helsinki!

I bet there’s some Linux application that is able to connect to it and create a virtual output device you can pick for the tidal app, or any other audio.

Yeah I should've been more clear what I'm looking for. Obviously I can stream via Bluetooth or perhaps even something like Airplay. But the native Spotify client uses Spotify Connect also on Linux, which means that the device can independently play the music. I just issue it commands from the client.

A similar thing exists for Tidal: Tidal Connect. But unfortunately the Linux client does not support it. Android, MacOS and iOS do, though.

I've been just pondering between tidal and spotify, and I primarily use Linux and Android. Tidal's client doesn't seem to support outputting to devices like Wiim in Linux. The Spotify client does.

Spotify's client can be installed via AUR (a repackaging of that DEB essentially) on Arch Linux.

FWIW, both tidal-hifi and the official spotify client are available in NixOS's repository.

In this context: Doing better stuff better than they do.

Chinese government can print an infinite amount of Yuan out of thin air.

That's not how any of this works. Sure they can do that, but they cannot control the effects of having done so.

So just to clarify: Do you think that boycotting USA is more important than being better than USA?

I would say that there's quite a lot of reason to believe that infrastructure investments can be one of the best ways to help poor people rise economically. Which has obvious paybacks.

This still requires creating infrastructure that is actually needed, otherwise it's just wasting money (which ultimately is just an abstraction over wealth, opportunity, materials, workers' finite time and energy, etc etc).
