Late to this post, but I recently cut off Spotify and Qobuz is the best alternative I've found so far between itself, Tidal, and Apple Music, in case anyone is wondering "well what do I use?" Good audio quality, a bit cheaper, and none of the Spotify bloat of AI DJs or that awful UI that splits your screen into two panels when you just want to scroll through your albums. The UI/website are a bit clunky and outdated, but it's great if you just want a direct interface to listen to music and it doesn't seem to support awful people in the way Tidal/Apple/Spotify would.

Not sure of any good alternatives besides these if anyone has a better recommendation, but I'm happy with this so far. It also comes with free access to Soundiiz to transfer all your saved albums and playlists over immediately.

Of course you could also just get all music for free and support the bands you like through merch/records.

It was tough to cut off Spotify after using them for so long, and I do miss the daily mixes/discovers, but I can just find new music through my lastfm friends or find other means that are more in my control. It's a little more work but it's worth it to switch off Spotify imo, whatever you switch to.

soup :)

Yeah, but a better person could be not-wrong without turning a single sentence criticism into a multi-paragraph rant only serving to stroke their ego. Turns out people can be "garbage" despite being skilled at something.

Cause the "amazon shipping box" part is silly and doesn't really give any info people don't already know. The title is funny too since there's no real point being proven. Growing your own food is cool, just nobody thinks you need a massive garden to do so in the first place.

"In my head, yesteryear was a time when the average American had access to and wore mass-produced yet well-made pieces from J. Crew and Lord & Taylor (not Uniqlo and Shein)"

Do people not like Uniqlo????? I've gotten a good amount of clothes from there and it has always been good quality for me. Tbh I don't even know where else to look that isn't crazy pricy or super cheap quality.

I got excited after hearing how much people love this one, I usually play every ~5 or so they release and just pick out the best, but sadly the performance was so bad I had to refund it. I have a bit better than the minimum specs on steam (and the minimum specs are a ryzen 5 and gtx 1070, shouldn't this be the standard target?) and ran everything at low, 1080p, and couldn't get past 15fps.

There are better looking games from ~5-10 years ago I can run at 1440p or even 4k 60fps on high settings, I wish game studios would stop trying to go for the most intensive possible graphics effects with how diminished the returns are for it.

A standing fuck

heh...guess you don't have a standing desk like me? guess you don't have superior posture? i'm basically exercising. i don't even have to eat healthy or go on walks outside anymore.

(i have a standing desk btw)

I have never thought of a roach as cute before. I still haven't, but this is the closest I've gotten.

Seriously. Anyone who thinks this is a good idea should leave the community, so ultimately this may be a good thing, so long as this community is kept here and passed to other people.

Sounds like this kid needs to get his act together. 2 years old and nothing to show for it!

Sure but why would the source code be available? It'd be funny if it was but it's probably a compiled program, right?
