Maybe it was written by a Gen Z

You don’t sound elitist, just a little boring.

Somewhere? You mean IN this very article.

That frog thing is false btw

Huge leap there buddy

https://sabotagenovel.com/ apparently someone had the same idea. ( haven’t read it yet )

Looks like it’s gone. Only an article https://www.pbs.org/newshour/amp/arts/oh-my-god-its-an-homage-a-writer-imagines-the-story-behind-beastie-boys-sabotage-video about it

I don’t see a single thing about that. Why do you think this was going to happen?

It seems more likely you progressed to see who he actually is rather than him losing “it”

I am basically a layman, i do music productions and in the past VSTs seemed to never work properly nor the authentication software that some us. Has it gotten better in the past few years, is there a specific one i should try? i have tried Ubuntu but nothing else to be fair. Also if i want to make a plex server on an old PC, what would people recommend? thanks to anyone who responds!

Yes it was - minus the googly eyes

It helps me read better as someone with dyslexia, I hate the look but it’s useful. I use open dyslexic but it’s basically Comic Sans.

I embarrassingly bought into the gamepass fantasy. I thought that we would start seeing more smaller and experimental experiences, better quality control for bigger titles. I thought that it would allow developers to have a piece of mind, a steady income and job security. When a few of my favourite developers were bought up I was happy for them, that they could feel a sense of stability. Now if a dev gets bought by Microsoft I now worry for their future and I can’t imagine being employed by them. I just hope the one who have been played off can find their footing.

I guess I have some research to do !

What does it mean to crack Spotify?

My early years crate digging, than myself diggin, than Kazaa - till eventually my library is now so vast and eclectic that the Spotify algorithm does the job for me (mostly).

Though the best trick to find new music - look for your favourite band’s favourite bands. That’s honestly the fastest way to find new and interesting things.

I once used AI to make a mock up of a t shirt design I had in my head just for curiosity, it made exactly what I wanted and now I don’t feel like it’s my design anymore. Who knows what artists it took from. Even after redrawing I lost appreciation for it. Haven’t touch AI since minus some bored conversations with dead celebrity models.

I don’t trust the search results to be accurate, its desire to please the user makes it unreliable. When it comes to image generation it takes from artists. AI is great for menial time consuming tasks like say cropping out the background of an image for example but because of the reasons above I don’t tend to use it all that much, and my respect for it is quite low.

“Grey Gardens” Documentary now had me interested to find out what they were parodying and it just held my attention from start to finish. The crew is just there to observe, very little influence by them. Not that they needed to, the duo was entertaining on their own. You get to see what happens to these people who were once basically royalty what mental health and isolation does to someone. Yet, they maintain a level of optimism and a sense of living life the best they can. It’s a beautiful combination of sad and hopeful.

What do you know of the current methods. Where did this information come from? I’d really like to see it. You spoke with such knowledge, you must have the data to make it up, right?

I gave you an example

I think there can be a more nuanced conversation to be had about that, like say what “The smiths” were and what “Morrissey” actually seems to be. To be honest there’s not a whole lot of good art made by outward racists. None of those people will see a single dime from me but if you’re discussing in good faith i don’t necessary think it’s completely a dumb idea.
