Going back over your text message trying to trim it down as much as possible because you were a few characters over a single text limit and like fuck you were using a whole additional text message from your allowance for the sake of a few characters.

Eh I’m English, all beige food is top tier!

Anti skip wasn’t completely anti skip if it took a massive jolt but for sure it was like magic compares to the old ones which needed to be preferably flat on a table xD

I mean I was doing a paper round around 2000 and the one I owned certainly didn’t have anti-skip to begin with and even when they did have anti-skip that doesn’t mean that it never skipped as later ones I had with it only had “x seconds of anti skip” so if it receives a big jolt that shit was still skipping

Walking down the street, cradling the thing like a baby because the slightest bump would cause it to skip, those were the days xD

My gf does these lymphatic drainage massages because of exactly that. She had cancer and beat it over 10 years ago now but it wrecked her lymphatic nodes in places which causes swelling of body parts. These massages can help to relieve that a little.

Ironically what exacerbates it is any kind of exercise, she doesn’t let that hold her back and is extremely active but going for a walk can actually cause swelling and so a lymphatic drainage massage might help that after the fact.

Same experience here, the numbers they give are utter made up bullshit. I’m not sure how my muscle mass declined when all my lifts had at least doubled in weight. They are not worth the time or the money.

Napster was there before Kazaa, it was just a string of services popping up after others got shut down. Good times!

Great news! Mixxx is getting so close to being permanently usable for me and the more work being put in just pushes it closer and closer. Hopefully by this time next year I can fuck off Traktor DJ and more importantly move permanently away from Windows!

Blaze is life, Blaze is love…

It has been great and is the UI that I want to use however it has slowly been slipping downhill over the last year and a half. That last update from this week has fucked more things than it fixed and introduced new issues as well.

I want it to be great. I want it to work properly but the dev is barely active popping in every 6 months or so to drop an update that might make it better but probably make it worse. It was a better app experience 18 months ago, that’s for sure.

I’ve moved over to trying Voyager because of all this and it is the closest to connect I can find so far.

Reminds me of chatting in RA2 lobbies and asking people “what is pen10 + pen5?”

Getting a response of pen15 and then swiftly followed by a “user was banned” system message.

Tried audiobooks?

Thanks, I’ll have a look. I’m less concerned about the quality it is more about practising for me :D

As someone currently trying to learn Spanish I have enjoyed both your posts today just to see if I can understand them before opening to see the translation.

Muy bien, gracias!

There are literally 10’s of us that still desire a physical keyboard on a phone.

The blackberry keytwo was the best phone I have ever owned but it is too outdated now to carry on using :(

Yeah, cause that’ll stop them!

I am also an avid band camp user and will buy as much as I can afford times being what they are though that is less and less so I have to prioritise what I want to pay for.

The music I am into also releases a lot of things as vinyl only which is utter bullshit IMO so I will pirate the shit out of any of that I can get my hands on as I won’t pay for a giant piece of obsolete media that I then have no way to actually use xD

I pay for premium for my sister and niece on a family plan thing anyway so it isn’t like I would save any money by not using it as it is there and paid for regardless. I’m literally ripping the music from Spotify using soggfy.

I use soulseek as well which is fine but a lot of idiots on there lock their files away which goes against the very nature of piracy imo, using this Spotify method is often easier to get some of the things I want and then I can tag them using my desired naming convention too rather than having to clean up other peoples messy as fuck tags.

Paying for it helps me pirate even more efficiently. I often leave 20+ hour playlists on ripping the music I want whilst off doing other things.

I have compared the 320 mp3s I get from it with 320’s that I have bought using spek and they were literally identical and whilst having a flac is nice having money to pay my bills is nicer and the difference in sound quality really isn’t that noticeable without a proper system to play them through.
