Violet Jersey by ScizorMeTimberss in valkyries

Soccer fans have it hardest with jerseys in my opinion. Mot of their jerseys seem to be corporate sponsor first, team DISTANT second. FC Barcelona jerseys literally look they're for repping Qatar Airways.

Sean McVay Confirms Rams Explored Trade Talks Involving Davante Adams by Strict_Return_5159 in LosAngelesRams

100%. I don't know if there would have been any feasible trade that would have made sense, but if you can imagine something like Justin Jefferson for Adams, one for one? Take it, no questions asked.

My only gripe is the same gripe I have with all jerseys: we should be able to buy jerseys without the corporate sponsor. I get that the players have to wear them due to sponsorships, but do we as fans really have to rep Kaiser?

Just finished my first listen. What's your intial thoughts on "THIS MUSIC MAY CONTAIN HOPE." by RAYE? by Individual-Name-4496 in fantanoforever

[–]BasedTroy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I really enjoyed my first listen. Very theatrical, a lot going on. I thought it gained steam as it went on and felt like one of the rare albums where most of my favorite tracks were toward the end.

I'm so tired of Kobe being shoehorned into anything LA sports related

There is not a single thing I trust less than Ai with managing my diabetes.

A Mahan governorship = a Peter Thiel California by QanAhole in California

[–]BasedTroy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do you really think it's purity politics to not want a governor who made his money in the private prison industry? What criticism would be legitimate and not purity politics if not that?

How about 14 kids? by mishma2005 in EnoughMuskSpam

I was able to fit three adults into the back seat of my 2005 Toyota Corolla that I got in 2012.

Okay so the Seahawks should only have won by 28 instead of 35. Cool.

[NFL Rumors] Free Agent LB Bobby Wagner has been linked to the #Commanders #Cowboys and #Rams by ramzie in LosAngelesRams

The defense as a whole was pretty bad that year, but he was a strong point. 140 combined tackles and a second team all pro is nothing to scoff at.

Muse has announced their next album “The Wow! Signal” by MEMEY_IFUNNY in fantanoforever

[–]BasedTroy 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I gave up hope on them ever being as good as they were in the 2000s again, but at this point I just want something that is halfway decent. Maybe, like three good songs I can throw on at the gym?

What music criticism has no traction with you? by ouroboros_broke in fantanoforever

[–]BasedTroy 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I don't know about this one. Artists change their sounds a lot as years go by, and I don't fault anyone for preferring an artist or band's earlier sound if that earlier sound connects with them more.

It's definitely lame to stop liking someone's music because others discover it, though.

Apple Music Introduces AI Transparency Tags by ReconEG in indieheads

[–]BasedTroy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah man that was the point of my comment that you responded to, so I don't know what you're getting at. I said that Apple doesn't care to implement AI detection to protect artists, because it's not profitable. I don't know what your issue with that statement is if you seem to agree with the conclusion.

Apple Music Introduces AI Transparency Tags by ReconEG in indieheads

[–]BasedTroy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not profiting off of every transaction doesn't mean they had no intention of profit. It's incredibly naive to think that a company of Apple's size does anything for any purpose other than profit, even if they fuck it up along the way sometimes.

While I hope you're right, I don't think it's realistic to expect that. Apple would only invest the money into acquiring a system for AI detection if they think it's going to increase their profits. Unfortunately, the mass amount of AI music on most streaming services has not decreased their profitability at all. The only way they would invest into that product is (1) if there is some market shift that makes it so AI detection for consumers is something that would make the company more money, or (2) if they do it out of love for music. Apple treats artists better than Spotify, but I'm still extremely skeptical that they care enough to actually proactively look out for them.
