how does elon musk not kill himself out of shame

shame is an emotion that requires you to perform the basic human task of mentally modeling the thoughts of other people, and high-functioning sociopaths are only the tiniest bit aware that other people exist

(low-functioning sociopaths aren't aware that other people exist at all, including their own future selves, and tend to get weeded out (killed) early)

"i support the current thing" or something to that effect is a WN meme that purportedly mocks people caring about things and sometimes caring about other things at a different point in time

I obsessively seek out new music and have an obscene amount of flac files, not because I prefer to listen to lossless, but more so because I started obsessing about not having to transcode when i converted it to mp3 for my portable devices. i started ripping my cd collection in around 2007 or so and continued buying and ripping cds (and then keeping them in a box never to be seen by light again) until around the time covid finally broke the thrift store habit I had. plus a lot of downloads.

I have about 1.5 TB of music which is probably nothing compared to some people's movie or tv libraries, but it makes all of the playlist-building AI features of plex really fun and i'm always rediscovering old music in my library.

i've had more last.fm scrobbles in 2022 than any year prior, which is kind of crazy. the lulls in my listening habits oddly match up with periods of depression. strange how that works



Yo poly, thanks for this post. I was blissfully unaware of how good Plexamp is these days. Including the carplay integrations, last.fm scrobbling, and ability to play and transcode flac on any device. This weekend I spent a ton of time upgrading old 128kbps albums to flac and doing general clean-up, re-activiating my last.fm which I haven't used since 2018 when I started using streaming services, and then re-importing my 200gb of music, and it's lovely to hear some stuff I forgot about that spotify and AM weren't giving me.

The Sonic thing works really well, and I get a nice sense of comfort knowing none of these songs are just going to magically become unavailable due to licensing issues or whatever.

Cheers m8.

nice! it works even better if you actively rate songs, too, because I am pretty sure it uses the sonic similarity thing to sprinkle in more stuff it think you'd like and less of what you don't. it's really nice that there's still this kind of attention being paid to software that honestly feels more and more niche every year with everything going streaming

still gotta use respective apps for whatever streaming service. There's apparently some sort of integration with Tidal and Plex but I have never used Tidal before so not sure how that works

the video side of plex added support to integrate all the video streaming services like netflix, hulu, prime, disney+, hbomax, apple tv into plex itself. no idea how it works because i've never tried it but it's possible they could one day do the same for music but idk.

plex just offers the deeplinks into the other apps

so if you click "watch this movie on disney+" or whatever in plex it'll tell your device that you clicked a link that goes to the disney+ app and opens up the movie within that app

this is pretty much what the apple tv app does also, somehow it saves your progress too. sometimes there are "channels" for the streaming services though (like paramount+) that just serve the content OTT to the tv app, so you get to use that interface instead. typically it is much much better, but i still don't really like it (yospos regulars probably know i worked at apple, on media software, before. i get really mad about this lol)

At least 10 people have come forward saying they've had frightening encounters with the man, in several cases capturing him on video smashing the sides of cars with a metal pipe.

A suspect linked to those attacks was arrested by CHP officers at a carwash in Torrance Sunday afternoon and booked into LAPD's 77th jail.

He has been identified as 36-year-old Nathaniel Walter Radimak. He was booked for assault with a deadly weapon and on two outstanding warrants. Initial bail was listed at $5.175 million.

His car, a 2022 Tesla Model X, was seized.

HERE is the REAL problem. To kill those ants, you’re talking about very high concentrations of ozone (hundred of ppm to a few thousand ppm, or > 10,000 times the EPA health standard!!!). for several hours.

Guess what else doesn’t like ozone? Rubber and plastics. That “gassing” will age every rubber seal, every gasket, every internal wire by 3-5 years. Would you pay new for a 5-year old car, even if it’s got 0 miles? No. Refuse delivery on that basis, order new.

Also, ants are pretty resistant even to those high concentrations. It drives them away, most (not all) will leave, but it doesn’t kill them. Scroll down to the bottom here:
