Arguably Spotify is just paid piracy with a middle man taking all the money since they don't pay artists.

I recommend looking into OPUS. Its what I've been using to store music on my phone. Compared to MP3 it has better audio quality, so you can lower the bitrate even lower if you want for the same quality, or do the same bitrate as MP3 and enjoy higher quality.

On bluesky at least, in moderation you can add muted words. So just write Trump there.

Thanks! Sounds like an interesting premise. Is it based on a real story?

I was spared from the worst of it. My country's lockdown was mild, and i was studying in a small town with lots of nature, so we almost didn't notice!

Really loved the first half of it. It got a little bit silly towards the end but it was still cool.

One of my favorite books!

Been listening to this a lot lately! Really really nice record.

Reading 2 books atm. First one is "Less is more: how degrowth will save the world". The second one is Lolita. I started reading it a few years ago but stopped because of the controversial nature. Now i felt ready so picked it up again. It's horrible, but at the same time so well written. Great book.

Iirc i started it before the pandemic and finished it during it. Was quite a ride!

Imaginal disk was so good!

2001: A Space Odyssey: a must if you haven't seen it.
Contact
Stalker: Very good but a bit challenging.
Interstellar
Arrival
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
Everything Everywhere All at Once
Severance: its a series but really good!

Jag ville nyligen sätta tänderna i filosofi och stötte på en bra introduktion på ca 100 sidor. Rekommenderar starkt!

It was definitely helpful. Looking forward to listening to those too. I love getting recommendations from here. They always seem so meaningful. You're welcome to share more in future posts (and this one of course) Thank you, you have a great 2025 too!

Really enjoyed that. Really great for those days you need something calm but also interesting! Thanks!

Nice I'll give it a listen! Thanks!

Great book! Recursion by Blake is also really good! And Replay by Ken Grimwood.

Actually same the first time i listened to it. The latter half was more exciting imo. Should probably give it a 2nd spin. Pool was also pretty cool but its hard to beat Compro. Dont want to push anything on you but im working on an album if you're interested. Get if you're busy. Merry Christmas!

It's so good! This year has had so many good albums that i don't even know where to begin. Maybe I'll do a year list next year haha.

To be frank, you shouldn't rely on people to summarize people and important books for you. That's how we get tribe mentalities. You do not know if the person summarizing it has your best interest in mind. If you want to form an opinion, read his books yourself.

I'm inclined to agree with Urban though. The issue definitely needed attention. But im not sure this killing will give the outcome that is hoped for.
