Boards of Canada - the entire discography

For something fresh I don't see listed: Vegyn - Only Diamonds Cut Diamonds

Sweet, like 30 years to late and for a dying industry.

I think it can encourage unintended behaviors like karma farming.

I've seen similar trends in some FPS games in which during immediate game play your kill to death ratio is hidden to keep people engaged with the main loop instead of getting worked up over their stats.

Or maybe we should hold ISPs accountable for the $400 Billion they pocketed instead of laying fiber in the late 90s.

I always go back to signalwave/broken transmission, utopian virtual, and slushwave. What about you?

Feels like 3 things in our current discourse:

  • No feeling of making a difference with your work (pointlessness)
  • Disingenuous workplace cultures (wE'Re a fAmiLy)
  • Extremely long work hours (WFH is great but "always connected" means you're always working)

The reality is that there was/is no reddit alternative and right now we're all in this transitory phase where we're all looking for a new home. We'll all just have to wait for the dust to settle. Lemmy isn't perfect but is improving and additionally other alternatives like kbin and tildes are in the works.

To your larger point, much of what you're feeling is the abrupt break in habits. I've been using the gap to develop more positives ones, and it's been great.

You'd be surprised how many company decisions are made by CEO A just reading news of CEO B doing a thing and just also wanting to do it.

GIVE ME BACK MY DAMN 3.5MM HEADPHONE JACK ON MY PHONE!!!

I strongly recommend doing a deep dive into some genres over at Bandcamp if you haven't already.

I was of the same opinion for a while, but I think you'll be pleasantly surprised if you check into the lesser known music corners.

From the party of "personal responsibility".

Like okay, just don't wear yours and let my personal responsibility start and end with my person.

Absolutely not. I've been completely shocked by the reception of this and feel like the positivity is 100% due to it having the Apple logo on it.

Who tf wants to wear a ski mask when working or watching videos? Not to mention it's got 2 hours of battery life. That's all without touching the $3500 price tag.
