Yeah I am going back and forth with the seller now. They offered us $500 off the purchase price (lol) instead of them doing any of the recommended repairs.

The house is in really good shape overall, but there are some things that need to be fixed and this seller was already super inflexible when negotiating the initial deal.

I kind of want to call their bluff and tell them we are walking away.

$500 is a joke what the hell

Our inspection cost $500.


What were the repairs?

Is there a Spotify thread? I'm trying to discover some new music based on songs I already like by starting radio stations on those songs or checking songs in the interface to save. But, I keep getting the same songs. My ideal would be to pick a few songs and tell it "Go find new songs that sound like these". Does that exist and I'm just missing it? I mainly just use the Android app.

What was the service that was built around this concept? Pandora or something?

I guess it surely can't be around anymore or is crippled since I haven't heard of it in years.

That's still Pandora I think. They may have lost rights over time so their library is smaller, I think I remember someone yammering about that once.

Also if you have / like anything hosted on soundcloud, you probably want to go save that off somehow since they're not long for the world.

Daily Mixes group similar songs into a playlist from your most listened. Once you get through the initial ones it gets to songs you haven't listened to

I've been pretty unimpressed with Spotifys search function. I wanted to listen to some Electric 6 album fire but it doesn't show up in database until I specifically look for the Fire Album

It does create radio stations similar to bands but I'm sure if it does it for just songs

Is there a way to tell it to stop playing songs or certain genres in those mixes? I was trying to find one country song that I liked back in the 90s, and now it thinks I want nothing but that.

Hey guys, not sure which of you were friend with nrr before he passed, but soundcloud is going down. I think he actually recorded a few of his songs and left them on there? You may want to grab them before they disappear.

Crossposting from the Farthouse for more visibility. If someone has the link to his soundcloud stuff and a good way to archive it please do so, I have neither. Someone definitely needs to grab all of that and save it.

They have always relied on human analysis of tracks which has severely limited their recommendations.

...also they have always been broke to the point the CEO convinced employees to work for free for two years in the past and they are still likely to go under.
