It might have happened, but people have not called me out on it. I keep far away from swear words while learning a new language.

Something I am struggelig with however, is being seen as less intelligent and less capable because I am speaking with an accent and/or bad grammar. Constantly being seen as less valuable.

I used to just run icecast and mpd. Not sure how you could password protect that, though.

I wouldn’t do it because of the fire hazard. Better to use hardware that is meant to run 24/7 plugged in.

Have you looked into Rivendell? Not sure if it is abandoned, but I’ve considered trying it.
