  • First of all, most media players are streaming/network capable, they don’t even advertise it. Just feed it the URL.

    You can even integrate user/password combos for http simple auth into a direct link. Not the safest; just to avoid people getting wind of a free radio station and overloading your server. Unless that’s you want, but then you should be aware of legal stuff.

    On the server side, you can run your own radio station with something like Icecast. That’s its own topic.

    If you want to choose what you listen to remotely, you are most likely looking at something Subsonic-compatible (apps exist). People say Navidrome is good. I am currently running jellyfin, it’s not subsonic compatible but apps exist, too.

    German uses the word Jungfrau (literally young woman), there’s no separate word explicitely defining a state of not having had sex.

    I’m guessing Almah is similar.

    But I heard a different story about the “virgin birth” - problem is I have no idea if it’s true or not. Anyhow:

    There was some sort of ritual where young women were invited to spend a night at the temple, with priests. Due to the religious nature of this, they were still considered to be virgins (“marriable” I guess?) afterwards. Quite the opposite, it was seen as an honour. Even if they got pregnant.

    So there’s your “Virgin” Mary who was “visited by an angel” to conceive.















  • Having kids, having to work…

    Thank you for your service though.

    My new home country has a thing called talkoot: it means people get together to do some work for someone (or the community), then this someone offers food & sauna (and that means socialising, an excuse to crack a beer etc). Historically used when building houses, it is now a neat trick to both get together and get some work done. Or free food & sauna.
