I liked one song that was recommended because it was alright if a bit too long, and after that I got dozens recommendations by them. Why? Well despite claiming to be a record label they are listing themselves as the artist on every single they release, which seem to come daily. By liking just one song by them I got all of these new singles in the explore/new release page, which looks like this: this is the future the masses want. hundreds of millions of rutibexes jizzing themselves over the idea of making passive income and being able to become an artist with a simple prompt

Precambrian Video Games posted:Spotify I think it was this thread that said that if you use the recommended songs/autoplay feature of Spotify, they don't have to pay any royalties per stream because they can classify it as radio play - it's only when you specifically ask for Spotify to play you a specific song where it counts. I don't know if that's true, but I don't do that now and only play full albums, start to finish. I also avoid any playlists that Spotify's algorithm automatically creates for me. I don't know if playlists made by real people count for streaming.

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:sounds better than this poo poo I stopped listening to anything released post-2020 because it all sounds the loving same. the vocals and instruments are overproduced and murky, the rhythm and melodies are poo poo, and there are zero hooks. At first I put it off to the usual generational gap, tastes changing, the relationship to music changing, but everything sucks now in a way I can't describe I don't remember where I heard this, but music has changed from being "hook-based" to more "vibe-based", and is now just a support for something visual (like a movie soundtrack or a TikTok video), or something you put on in the background as you work

yep, to save money to buy a house on the east coast, we rented in Oakland for 3 years. self-contained units in the basement/backyard of 80+ year homes. one lot was building another full home in their lot (the lots are narrow but lint). some actual apartment buildings were being built. only one built that we toured that we considered but it was literally right next to the train tracks. housing density is for other people i guess (but they do love those “In This House” signs!)

A lot of really good stuff has come from independent artists/labels in recent years. Go to listen to Deep in View by Cola for example.

there’s 0 chance these are being sold as like traditional “homes” in the way any normal American conception of them exists, right. it’s more like a condo. I have to imagine the “owner” of an adu doesn’t own the land and there’s probably significant restrictions on what they can do to the house.

I have to imagine the “owner” of an adu doesn’t own the land and there’s probably significant restrictions on what they can do to the house. so it's pointless to even guess. it's more that theoretically homeowners CAN sell, but will do? no, absolutely not but yes any would probably be setup like a condo with some sort of "Homeowners Occupied Area" fee

My favorite boba place moved in to my area so I went to check it out and had sticker shock. A single drink is now nearly $10 without alternative milk. Idk what the hell they’re thinking because all the other boba places around here are around $6 for a milk tea with boba. Same for fruit teas with jelly, nothing close to $9-10 (with tax). Not going back again sadly and I’m going to try the boba drinks from Costco and see how those are.

Xaris posted:latest rob horning piece is pretty good extremely good read, thanks for sharing it's a (or at least used to be a) somewhat common take that one of the problems of the internet is that it allowed people with crackpot theories to find (or create) communities of like-minded people that will believe their ideas and let them feed off of each other, whether before such things would be relegated to someone's basement, if they didn't burn out first it seems like one of the destinations for AI will be creating this self-reinforcing, self-deluding effect, without even requiring someone else to be on the other end - if you tried to reinvent Hypercube or John Titor in 2024, chatGPT is going to tell you that you're right, and here's the "evidence" to prove it. and I would bet anything that the FBI is working on a chatbot that's going to radicalize people into committing domestic terrorism without a need to assign an agent to set-up the entrapment themselves

gradenko_2000 posted:extremely good read, thanks for sharing my bigger concern is that so many people are actually loving hyped and buying hook, line, and sinker this dogshit. not just upper manamagent salivating at the thought of reduced call center costs or whatever, but even the masses of rutibexes and everyone online is like bedazzled and smitten and no one else seems to see just how blatantly bad all the "content" is. it genuinely feels like I'm in some parallel crazy dimension that's purestrain gaslighting and the other half of the "anti-ai" component seems to be more rubes concerned about singularity or rockos basilisk or whatever the gently caress that's so hilariously far fetched that it's secretly just the same side of buying hook, line, and sinker.

FirstnameLastname posted:....so there's just way more bad music bc lower skill floor just dont listen to it you can't keep up with like new releases websites because it's like trying to use Steam front-page to discover new games. you can slowly curate bands you like and just follow their latest releases newsletters, but that doesn't really help. you can look at genre tags for you want but then that's also just asking an algo anyways fwiw my spotify discovery weekly is pretty good, i usually end up adding one-liked song every week or two to my master library which I consider a good hit rate, and then I usually look into other releases by the artist. then again I have sort of niche weird tastes of a particular variety and not much else.
