That’s awesome! Keep that fire burning!

That’s a great hobby! I got turntables when I was 17 and it really depended my connection to music. May I recommend the book “Last Night a DJ Saved My Life” by Bill Brewster. It’s a great read on the history of DJing!

Oh shit! We call that the “God soap”! Recommended toilet reading for sure.

Yes this implicit bias is foundational and starts as early as preschool. Here’s a Yale study from 2016 and a short video explainer.

All the ones mentioned already are great! I also like Filmmaker IQ:

And I’m going to leave a link to a story breakdown of Terminator 2 that is my bible. Absolutely worth a watch if you’re into film analysis:

last.fm was/is great! I used to use it extensively and it lead me to so much new music over the years…

I love this game! Great to play while listening to podcasts.

Thanks for the clarification!

Just a quick reminder that Epic is owned by Tencent.

He has 11 children and believes it’s his duty to repopulate the planet and save the human race. Not joking.

This is the real answer. The low interest money train has left the building and these companies are scrambling to meet their feduciary duty

I think it was even earlier… 9/11 really broke the safety of America (and even the “western” world) and pushed so many people down the conspiracy rabbit hole. Social media amplified this fear and brought them together giving them power.

Alright fine. But I already own it on three systems… takes out wallet

You sound like an anti-dentite!

Hypernormalization. Adam Curtis spoke about this in his documentary.

While technically cover songs are copyright infringement, anyone can cover a song as long as they obtain a mechanical license and follow some guidelines.

I think copyright should be abolished and replaced by a tax that pays artists, writers, journalists, and musicians. This will eliminate the middleman copyright legal industry and allow for far more creativity.

I agree with everything you’ve said about emulation, it’s never been better! My worry about the current push to always online games is their inability to be properly archived. P.T. is an example of a game locked to a console that never got a physical release. Also games are now constantly patched so there is never a finished or definitive version of them.

Personally restoring the account of someone posting graphic child abuse images! Good times.
