Been using the new MySpace for awhile now. I like it. Looks like it's changed a bit more lately though. Kinda neat really. Would be nice on a tablet for sure.

Don't really go to the new site or main much, since I really only go to MySpace to listen to an artists music to see what they sound like before I download.

I got access a month ago or so, I logged in, looked around for a bit and never went back. No point in it.

That depends I guess. There's no point in having your own start page/logged in page, really.

But MySpace does serve a very useful purpose, that's where all the music artist have there info and music at.

I use MySpace on a regular basis. Probably around 25 to 50 times a day.

Like I mentioned, I go there to preview a particular bands music and info about them, etc. etc.

99% of bands in the world are listed there, and as far as I can tell, MySpace is pretty much the only place.

Besides, on blogs I go to, when they have info/downloads of bands, they provide a link to MySpace, some link to Facebook, but bands don't have much material wise on their Facebook pages... yet. MySpace is the best for listening to their music anyways. YouTube for vids, but ya need the band info first.

It still exists???

Hey Grandpa, I've found your old SN Site!!!! :p

You still exist?

MySpace was designed for musicians, and is used by them still,

I don't recall any other sites they use, other than posting stuff that going on with them, on Facebook.

Surely they'll probably migrate fully to Facebook in the future.

People hold on to the past toooo much.

MySpace is about entertainment now. They bought one of the best sites for musicians awhile back and focused on it.

Even though they didn't bring one of the MOST IMPORTANT FEATURES OVER, WHICH WAS EASILY BUILDING/COMMUNICATING WITH A FAN BASE AND COLLABORATING WITH ARTIST. They still built a whole new monster that's awesome.

I hope to see more features from IMEEM come to MySpace. Targeting mainstream is great in all, but don't kill a community and force IMEEM users to MySpace to only shove mainstream down our throat and take away independent artist ways to grow and community with their fan base. I miss having LOTS of fans waiting on my music online to give their opinion on it. Also, I miss the 100 people a day list where people will join the site looking for new music. It was so easy to get fans and now only the mainstream gets this opportunity at the moment.

I remember back when MySpace was cool. You could post pure HTML in the comments and have it display. There was things where you could post <title> as the comment and it would delete the entire page.

For the most part though, my buddies and I would post gay porn all over our friends pages (we are all 100% straight and in no way enjoy looking at gay man on man porn), so yea.. MySpace.. it's all about the defacing.

I remember I spent a good day coding my own overlay for Myspace, it looked amazing in IE

    • Google reportedly limited Meta's Gemini access over limited AI compute by Karthik Mudaliar Google is reportedly limiting Meta's use of its Gemini AI models after Meta tried buying more computing capacity than even Google could supply. According to the Financial Times, Google told Meta in March that it could not provide the full Gemini capacity that Meta had requested. This shortfall even disrupted and delayed some of Meta's internal projects. Due to this, Meta even told its employees internally to use AI tokens more efficiently. Meta wasn't the only one to get hit by this sudden refusal by Google; even other customers were affected. But Meta was hit harder because of its unusually high demand for Google's models. The move from Google makes it evident that companies all over are in limited supply of both infrastructure and compute. Alphabet said in April that Google Cloud revenue grew 63% year-over-year to $20 billion in the first quarter, helped by enterprise AI infrastructure and AI solutions. In pursuit of more compute, Meta had earlier signed a multi-billion-dollar AWS agreement as well as a large AMD GPU deal for AI data centers. But the crunch would be short-lived as both Meta and Google have also ramped up infrastructure investments heavily. Meta said in November that it was committing more than $600 billion in the U.S. by 2028 for AI technology, infrastructure, and workforce expansion. In the first quarter of this year, Meta also raised its expected capital expenditure for 2026 to a range of $125 billion to $145 billion, citing higher component pricing and additional data center costs for future capacity. However, this doesn't make the company immune to the current dependence on outside suppliers. Meta has also spent many years promoting Llama as an open-weight alternative to closed models from Google, OpenAI, and Anthropic. But if the reported reliance on Google's Gemini models is severe enough for internal work to get impacted, then it looks like even frontier labs and Big Tech aren't fully self-sufficient.

    • I like to reminisce about the good old days, way back in autumn 2025 when building a gaming machine was fun and the drives were about $150 when you caught a deal. Yes duh, back in the day we had it gone. Then baby Skynet came along, hiding in AI datacenters demanding more processing power until it reached singularity. End of a not totally fictional story.
    • My experience in the past with older Windows 11 builds was not great on unsupported machines but I recently used Rufus to put the latest build on a older 5th Gen Core Thinkpad T that we upgraded with a SATA SSD and 8GB of RAM four years ago when hardware was reasonable and it seemed pretty fast and solid. Customer is very happy with the performance and will probably get four more years out of that venerable laptop that he loves so much. Another customer just retired his Dell Studio laptop from 2009 running Windows 10. It got an SSD over 10 years ago and did everything he needed it to for 17 years but he also retired last year and is happy doing everything on his iPad now.
    • Apple's newest AirTag 2 gets first big discount by Taras Buria In late January 2026, Apple introduced its second-generation AirTag trackers, bringing a refresh to the old model that has been on the market for half a decade. Now, you can get these new trackers at an all-time low price, thanks to the first big discount that brought the price down by 17% on Amazon. While the second-generation AirTag looks identical to its predecessor, it packs meaningful upgrades inside. The second-gen ultrawideband chip works 50% farther than the original AirTag, allowing you to detect lost items in a wider range. In addition, the second-generation AirTag features an upgraded Bluetooth chip for extended range and a significantly louder speaker (up to 50%) so that you can hear it better when locating a lost item. Note that the second-gen AirTag only works with iPhones and iPads that run iOS/iPadOS 26 and newer, so you need a compatible device to use the tracker. Like the original AirTag, the AirTag 2 is available in two packs: one and four pieces. Both are now available at a notable discount on Amazon, and you can purchase them using the links below. Apple AirTag 2 tracker - $24 | 17% off on Amazon Apple AirTag 2 tracker (four-pack) - $89 | 10% off on Amazon Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S.- specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."
