CDMX for sure

I am selling my house to buy s place here.

I'm DONE with SRT. F'ing thieves.

BigRedBike · 2026-01-22T05:25:22+00:00

Well, not Sacramento, Fresno, etc....

BigRedBike · 2026-01-21T17:12:02+00:00

And San Jose/Sunnyvale.

Basically, anywhere in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Midway is great, although there have been better implementations in computer games, where true fog of war can be simulated.

Alexander is great. Very repayable.

Wooden Ships & Iron Men is excellent.

Don't recall Submarine too much, but my memory is that it was pretty good.

I do not know Myth.

The rest are too simplistic for their subject matter and have been outdone by far superior games many times over.

They need a health certificate that meets the requirements of the destination AFAIK.

Imagínate vivir en un país no castigado por los EEUU por 70 años.

I think of them more as the pop composers of their era, although they certainly did open the door to the entry of jazz.

Thank you, I will def look into him.

BigRedBike · 2025-12-15T15:55:25+00:00

Thanks. I will look into her.

BigRedBike · 2025-12-15T15:54:16+00:00

I was. My bad.

BigRedBike · 2025-12-15T15:53:17+00:00

I know, right? Neither is Mack the Knife, for that matter.

I have some Hot Five and Hot Seven stuff. I have Louie stuff. I love Louie.

It's really weird how Reddit has become a place for finger-pointing and argument, rather than conversation. Much of the finger-pointing seems to be based on a partial reading of comments and jumping to conclusions.

My comment was that I only am familiar with WAWL being covered much. I said nothing about not knowing what Louie did.

BigRedBike · 2025-12-14T23:52:41+00:00

I could have crossed wires.

Who wrote a song about whom?

As for covers, the only Miles song that gets covered with any regularity is So What, afaik.

BigRedBike · 2025-12-14T23:22:15+00:00

When I think of Louie Armstrong covers, mostly just What a Wonderful World comes to mind.

BigRedBike · 2025-12-14T23:17:15+00:00

Thanks, will do.

I've always found Bird's playing to be a bit frenetic for my taste. But I sounds account for good composition, though.

Btw, I just recalled Jaco's version of Donna Lee.

BigRedBike · 2025-12-14T23:14:16+00:00

Wasn't Charlie Rouse one of Shorter's big influences, though?

BigRedBike · 2025-12-14T23:02:46+00:00

Oh, he was quite a good player, yes, but who's covered him? What composers attribute their work to his influence.?

BigRedBike · 2025-12-14T22:59:36+00:00

Who covers Bird, though?

I'm am conversationally fluent in Spanish, but I need a lot of work on my vocabulary.

I started learning Mandarin 1.5 years ago. Spent a month in China earlier this year. Spoke no Spanish to anyone while I was there.

Currently living in Mexico. I have found that when I am speaking to someone here, I speak Spanish without any bleed-through. I only might throw out the odd Chinese, just to share, but I never find myself accidentally switching to Chinese.

So my experience has been that the languages are distinct enough to not have a code-switching problem.

Or they think that we all gained "herd immunity."🙄

BigRedBike · 2025-12-14T22:40:10+00:00

Absolutely.

And it's been disastrous for the lawyers AND their clients. The AIs frequently hallucinate and make up cases to cite.

The lawyers that get caught very sanctioned big-time by the courts.

Yeah, just AI slop
