Laugh quietly please. I still have a Meridian DAC that transcodes MQA. Among the gullible audiophile set there are tens of us. FML.

As a bedroom producer who spent his children’s college money on analogue synths: go fuck yourself asshole.

QA brought to you by ChatGPT.

I think I the end it isn’t going to matter. For the record: I share your sentiments and I’m not a fan of what I’m about to say but placing a premium on “human made” isn’t measuring a meaningful metric.

We will have to begin to evolve our understanding of value to include things that are made, in part or in whole my machines. There will stilll be good things and bad things regardless of their provenance.

I often think of the use of autotune in music. In the one end of the spectrum you have Cher’s 2000s classic Do you believe… on the other end of the spectrum you have Bon Iver’s basically entire body of work.

Each person can decide which is good.

For me it is very clear.

Basically I think that we are witnessing a dichotomy between content and art, with or without generative AI and I like to believe that art will win. Whatever that might mean.

I’m still convinced that only person insufferable enough to lose to Donald fucking Trump in 2016 was Hillary Clinton.

You can hate it all you want but in some level it’s a popularity contest and she is utterly utterly unlikeable.

Her smarmy q&a with those millennials was a fucking PR nightmare.

Have a poke around at the pissy ass responses I’ve had to this comment then consider that Reality Bites was a love letter to an entire generation who felt this way twenty years or more before this article came out.

Failure to recognise history is the very DNA of the millennial. Bite me.

It’s a very constructive comment if you consider that the author of this piece has failed to learn from history and will continue to do so, you’re welcome.

Like, whatever man.

No. They pretend that acknowledging trans women erases womanhood itself and is the ultimate mysogyny.

Gen X and you’ve never heard of Slackers?

Bruh.

Bit late to the Slacker party there millennials. But ya, keep believing everything that happened to you has happened for the first time I’m in history.

No that was a portrait.

Generally speaking you can hold in the valve for 60 seconds to let out enough air from your street pressure for off-road. It’s better to measure and you really want a 12v compressor to reinflate for the ride home but in a pinch…

You need to offer something banal for download with a spinning stiffy disk gif.

Vintage meme indeed.

This dude always looked like a college aged Gregory House to me.

I use my hair dryer daily so does my wife. Dropped a little more than I was comfortable with on a Parlux and I’ve never looked back. There is a reason they have rules this game since the 70s. Also: they are serviceable (I don’t know for sure but I doubt the Dyson stuff is) so you can get a good long lifespan out of one.

The true halcyon days were before the Digg migration. Sorry, I know most folks on the site and very likely here too were part of that diaspora but it’s fair to say that Reddit was very different and yes: better before that.

Thanks for taking a swing at it! :)
