Reminds me of Tom Neale's "An Island to Oneself" - https://harpercollins.com.au/products/9781775492979

Exactly the same experience for us as well. I just don't bother with them.

These come around like clockwork. Even prior to the EmDrive something similar was being spruiked in the early 2000s

You've confabulated a reason why they replaced them, linked it to initiative then complained about them doing it all in two sentences. A gold medal in mental gymnastics is warranted here!

I couldn't watch Black Mirror after having my son.

Thanks for your work on Rdio. I miss it. Were you around when that guy managed to spam plays to get fake albums to the top of the charts?

Used to hang out on IRC servers in the late 90s. #zeraw on Undernet was a classic. We'd exchange compromised FTP server details where other users had uploaded games.

AI generated music has started to ruin most music on YouTube for me. My feed is starting to get crammed with artists and DJ sets of things like "1 Hour of Cowboy Western Songs to Listen to While Traveling Through the Frontier".

Is it real music? Probably not because the thumbnail is plastered with Pepe memes and other rubbish. We starting to get to the point where music is like Low-background steel - as in it existed before the advent of AI slop.

And before someone asks "bUt iT dOeSn'T mAtTeR hOw iT's mAdE, iT's aLl aBuOt wHaT tHe eNd rEsUlT iS"

Yes, it does matter to me. Making art to me is about all the small decisions taken along the way to arrive at the final piece. When it hasn't gone through that process then I feel nothing when I listen or view it. Actually, I don't feel nothing, I feel deceived.

Exactly what I thought of as well

The social benefit is that it gives a controlled outlet for the need to gamble when managed by the government.

Which weirdly enough has made Soundcloud one of my primary sources for finding music I enjoy, via DJ sets.

Thank you for taking the time to write this out. I've long since given up having any debate with people on these subjects so it's heartening to see some still flying the flag.

One video in that archive is about a family day out to and island by ferry. You'd basically arrive in the morning, climb to the top of the hill on the island, have lunch and meet the ferry in the afternoon. The first thing that strikes you is that no-one is fat. The second that everyone is fit enough to make it to the top of the hill regardless of age.

My flow is the AI writes most of the code, I closely review, question and tweak everything that comes out. My commits are about the same size as they were. Don't vibe code or one shot features.

Congrats on your upgrade from bogan to neuvo-bogan ;)

(I kid, I also drive a byd, ATTO though rather than shark)
