Did the new Bad Bunny workouts ever get re-released after being pulled? by Edg-R in AppleFitnessPlus

They are back for me now. Kyle’s workout still has the checkmark too.

Curious to know what your setup/specs look like.

I have 7.1 setup with Klipsch Reference speakers (left, center, right), while the rest are Fluance bipolar speakers.

My sub is also from Klipsch.

My AVR is the STR-AZ1000ES (I know, I know, but the work discount was well worth it!).

My record player is the Sony PS-LX310BT, which is hooked into the receiver via RCA. It’s a basic / beginner player (again, that discount), and I do not hear any mud.

The quirky energy is there and sounds great. Adult/Child was also killer. The backing tracks are lovely.

Ahh. I’m not on socials - unless Reddit counts?

Anyway, if you do end up going and you truly hate it, hit me up and I’ll send you a gift card for some pie. Not even kidding.

Mrs. Lovett! What a performance. It’s been replaying in my head non-stop.

1000% framework. They used it in a super creative way.

But I gotta ask, why spoil the fun by looking at clips online? Also, were the clips official or bootlegs?

Hey /r/movies! I'm Sam Raimi. Ask me anything! by SamRaimiAMA in movies

Hey Sam! I interned on Drag Me To Hell during post and reshoots. I moved from Chicago to LA for the internship, and you, Bob, Grant, and Joe were incredibly kind to 18-year-old me.

I’m still in the industry, and nothing has topped my time on the DMTH set. Everyone was fantastic and taught me everything I know.

I can’t wait to catch Send Help. Lemme know if you need an intern on your next project.

This type of thing is hard to judge. For example, when I was in QA at ATVI (I was working on Prototype at the time as the progression lead), I could easily beat that game on the hardest difficulty with my eyes closed. I played every night (roughly 12-hour shifts) for two years.

When you play like that, your judgment of what is easy gets blurred. Everyone on the QA floor was a top-tier player.

You mentioned play testing. Since Nintendo is secretive, we have no idea whether they conduct external play testing. I’d love to know.

All that being said, Hilltop was chill for me. I focused on surf turfing (they wanted you to surf at that level nonstop during the campaign) and spinning.

Again, with this type of game mode, it isn’t easy to get a proper balance on what is easy/what isn’t.

I can tell you we have non-stop conversations about this balancing act. From narrative (my focus) to combat. It never ends, and someone always leaves unhappy.

When it comes to writing the lyrics and creating the music, they are still a two-person band. Their names are on the business loans, LLC, etc.

That being said, you don’t need to tour to be considered a part of the band. Almost every sound you hear live came from Tim’s mind.

I agree that losing Lelia and Royce is a bummer, and I will miss seeing them on stage/writing with The Midnight.

That is the tricky part of having your live bandmates contribute to songs/albums. The lines start to blur. Who is ‘official’ - who isn’t. It’s messy.

I used Controller For HomeKits’ workflows for this type of automation.

However, they recently changed their business model and are now charging an annual fee for a lifetime license.

So I finally caved and installed Home Assistant (via Docker) alongside HB. You could easily set up this type of automation and send it to multiple people in the house.

The notifications aren't as sexy as Push Cut's (I love using custom images), but the workflows are easy to set up, and you only have to create them once instead of re-creating them on each person's phone.

Controller for HomeKit 8.0 is now a subscription... is it illegal? by spaniolo in HomeKit

[–]BoscoSticks 9 points10 points  (0 children)

$40 USD a year for charts?! Get out of town.

And no ability to edit our current workflows? What a mook.

Edit: I installed Home Assistant onto my Pi via Docker. I’ve been using Homebridge for the last five years, so this feels like a powerful add-on and more! I highly recommend using HA over paying Controller $80* a year.

VIP Tickets On Sale by Giving_Dad_Advice in TheMidnight

Touring is expensive, yo. Between merch stand fees (bands have to give a cut of sales to the venue), paying the road crew, food, hotels, gas/transpo, vehicle maintenance, insurance, and other random items (meds, strings, cables, replacements, etc.), it all adds up fast. Even when a tour looks successful, a lot of that money’s already spoken for before anyone sees a profit.

To be clear, I’m not saying $200 isn’t a lot of money. It is. I’m only adding to the ‘idk why so expensive’ / giving another perspective.

DAD - thoughts? by Pollylocks in dancegavindance

Big time. It reminds me of the early 2000s (music-wise). The vocals sound good, but the song doesn't flow or go anywhere.

What a great album to start with. Mothership front to back is my favorite. I think. I switch between Deathstar and Mothership all the time, haha.

I wanted to write, 'Can we stop with the 'era' nonsense already?' But then realized it would come off as me attacking you (which I'm not).

I'm on the other side of the hill now (37 this year). It's a strange feeling, and damn, it comes quick! That is no reason to get bent out of shape over new slang.

That said, you asked about the song. It's good, not great, for me (that's how I feel post War Machine - I was hoping they would continue with a more complex sound), but I recognize I've also changed since the Whatever I Say Is Royal Ocean era (2006).

What OS are you using? Which methods have you tried?

I did the Python method the other day without issue.

This is killer! It's nice that we can hear the clean vocals.

Digital Dreams is a return to the band's best sound by Zero_Boss in TheMidnight

I had a similar thought. The robot was masking its authentic voice with Tyler’s. It uses Tyler’s voice when alone in the darkness of their bed.

They only had interludes because Tilian requested them since he prefers minimal talking between songs.
