And now he’s dead.

What the hell is wrong with those people?!? If there’s any doubt, then pause the execution.

I like the term shovelware.

A few billion? Vancouver BC is spending that on an new sewage treatment plant.

How could a tunnel like this be built and functional for a few billion? Perhaps hundreds of billions… maybe.

I thought this was one of those 3D magic eye photos. Nope.

I actually liked the European version of the movie better because it gave more background on the characters and the story.

Ubuntu and Mint condition that affects your digestive tract and the other day I trust that this was the one I sent her an hour and there was an instant hot to handle this is the best for me.

I actually tried this today. My computer has 3 monitors. This program crashes really hard if you have more than one monitor. Maybe we it’s good otherwise, but I’ve uninstalled.

I would like to change to A4 paper, but in Canada? Good luck even finding it. Staples carries 1 SKU and at $28 for 500 seets it’s 4x the price of other paper.

Are you certain that you’re human? If I couldn’t solve captchas I’d be concerned.

There we go. Haier is now on my personal “do not ever buy from” list. Congratulations, Haier.

I’m going to say Gentoo Linux. It’s a good learning tool and I suppose maybe a tiny bit faster if you actually custom-compile everything for your hardware from source, but that’s a crazy waste of time.

Did you marry a Jewish girl?

Explain?

Even grocery stores don’t double bag anymore.

How is this not all over the news?

Consider “moissanite”. Beautiful manufactured gemstones that look very much like diamonds but are a fraction of the price.

A GPS? Why?

Maybe they’ve since added blocking artists. I know that I had several back and forth conversations with Spotify support on this and there wasn’t any way to do it back then. I don’t want to block a song, I want to block an artist/band completely.

I don’t want shuffle to take into account their licensing fees, or which record labels they have promotions with. I want a random mix based on my favorite songs or chosen playlist. This is unacceptable and part of why I cancelled Spotify.

Tidal doesn’t use mqa. The company behind mqa went under and they’ve since changed to FLAC.

Good headphones or great speakers and I do hear a difference. Not in every song, but in many. Spotify keeps promising better quality and they keep failing to deliver.

For reference, I have studio monitors that are calibrated and room corrected. Yes. There is a difference.

After a few years on Spotify, I switched to Tidal.

Issues I had with Spotify are:

1. You can’t block a song, an artist or a band. Ridiculous really. For example, I dislike Kanye West and never want to hear his music, and blocking him on Tidal was easy.
2. The Spotify shuffle algorithm is beyond terrible. If you have a 250 song playlist, you’ll hear the same popular 50 songs and never the obscure ones. Sometimes even back-to-back. It’s frustrating and they won’t fix it. It seems to be their algorithm is designed to promote some artists or bands more than others.
3. Spotify have promised higher quality audio for years and still haven’t brought it out. With good headphones or speakers I can hear the difference that Tidal has.

I miss how well Spotify integrated with Google Home though.
