[–] voltagex_ 8y ago ↗ That's a very strange link shortener. Please don't submit shortened URLs. They break the web.https://lwn.net/Articles/750152/ [–] khedoros1 8y ago ↗ The odd part is that the shortened link is just barely shorter. [–] jimmies 8y ago ↗ Could it be that the submitter or whoever gave the submitter that link wanted to probe how many people on HN clicked on that link and where? [–] khedoros1 8y ago ↗ That seems like a reasonable explanation to me. [–] Hydraulix989 8y ago ↗ Funny that ShadyURL is also on the front page right now.

[–] pronoiac 8y ago ↗ Cthugha pre-dated WinAmp visualizers by a couple of years, as it could take sound input from microphones and CDs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cthugha_(software)(This is a minor nitpick about the background, not the main part of the article.)
[–] eltoozero 8y ago ↗ Wow great write up! I do hope ProjectM attracts some newer maintainers as it still is an amazing modular music visualizer, on the same level of the Visual Light Machine work of Jeff Minter (see XBox 360’s neon viz).Long live projectM!
[–] Mashimo 8y ago ↗ Wow, that is still around?I remember using it ~10 years ago when I first started using Linux. Together with XMMS.
[–] johnnyfived 8y ago ↗ I don't think it's open source but this is easily the best visualizer I've ever used, in terms of graphics and simplicity in usage. And it's free.http://www.plane9.com/
