Those were the days man…

Hog Frites

Twas at a brewery eating some bomb pork fries. Could dig it.

As an easily-distracted multitasker I can certainly appreciate the inconvenience of clicking past it. Would be lovely to have a solid on/off in settings to omit the optional from playback.

More options almost always better than fewer in my mind!

Hot take but hasn’t been a problem for me. Like, the feature stays off until I turn it on again, and I only turn it on when I’m trying to expand a playlist.

I use Spotify for discovering new songs, mostly for adding to the DJ arsenal. I listen to a lot of music. Enough that I make like 15-20ish playlists a year for various subgenres of tunes either released or discovered that year.

Since I compartmentalize my genres so methodically, smart recommendations tend to be on the money and more of what I’m looking for. But again, when I just wanna hear what I’ve assembled I just leave it off – never on unless I turn it on.

Definitely been eyeballing alternatives though, since Spotty is getting deeper into their enshitty arc.

Big differences between fashion aesthetic and average Joe’s home decor. There was certainly a bit more subtlety to it than what media boild it down to.

Cheers! Stuff like this is wild. Might need to tinker a bit.

How was this made?

Excellent points, appreciate the write up. Better said than I could myself.

I will also note that in my personal experience phone was more of a hail mary when I’d be doing like a wedding reception or private party and needed a tune for client that wasn’t already in my USBs. When the tip depends on it, yes, I absolutely DJ with the phone.

As a DJ and audiophile in general, yeah I’m not thrilled on headphones using batteries and Bluetooth. I’ll give up my hard-line when I’m dead.

Sure, some wireless for exercise or casual use is fine. Full deal breaker if I’m performing though.

There’s a sweet spot for sure. With FromSoft games the best strategy was often sleeping on it for a day. Gives the brain time to defrag and better learn moves, timing, etc. Coming back to Sekiro after an extended hiatus was pretty brutal though.

In short, liability laws are a bastard in a country with no national healthcare rights.

Lol I mean, I think down votes are more for tone, but while I’ll love to see this proven wrong I wouldn’t bet on it. Tough sitch.

I understand some of these words.

Yesterday you said tomorrow - just do it!

Drink some coffee

Minnesotan checking in. Haven’t even used my proper winter jacket once this year. While I do hate living in a winter wonder land, definitely concern for global climate trends moving forward.

Here’s hoping we get our shit together before we go full Mad Max. Not holding my breath tho’.

What discord alts would you recommend? Genuine question. Bit of a blind spot for me right now.

Haven’t sailed in a while, DM me tips on how to get my vessel sea-worthy again! 🏴‍☠️🦜
