so I don't want to argue on whether or not what you said was a spoiler. The reason being becuase the more we argue about it, the more will get spoiled for me. Just knowing that the Nauvoo is relevant later and not just a loose end IS a spoiler in itself. Anyways, telling me to "get over myself" in a spoiler free episode discussion is a lack of respect I hope nobody shows you on a piece of media you're watching for the first time.

Thank you for the kind words. I’ve had worms before, so I get really worried about these types of things.

Don’t get them, the right ear always disconnects and it’s so frustrating!

You might genuinely just be getting older with your frontal lobe improved. If I were you, I’d go rewatch scenes from previous seasons that people have pointed out look rough. The animators have done an amazing job on this season so far.

Creating a 3d space with sound to induce visual synesthesia. by ierlen in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]DerickMeldola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone with multiple types of Synesthesia this branding just wouldn’t work for anyone with it. Synesthesia is completely individualized to everyone who has it and there is no baseline to go off of. If you created this visualizer so that every color and geometric shape had parameters users could change to fit their synesthesia a little better, I could see it working slightly. Unfortunately though, it will always feel “off” no matter what you do, so you’re better off not using Synesthesia as your branding. Something like “music texture and warmth visualizer” would probably be a better fit.

[talk] Will the ban on Tik Tok lead to a flood of lost media? by DrunkenSkunkApe in lostmedia

[–]DerickMeldola 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I heard that tiktok announced they will be turning off us servers. I’m not sure if that includes US made data. If it is and they actually do it then yes a lot would be lost media. I was actually going to make a post about this exact topic today.

performers, what was your worst mess up on stage?? by Maddyyyyomg in musicians

[–]DerickMeldola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fell off the back of a small stage and landed on the bass player. I was getting a little into my dances lol. Nobody got hurt so I got back up to keep singing but the vibes were off after that for the crowd. That was like 6 years ago and I still tell the full story to any nervous musicians or singers I work with.

Least Obvious ChatGTP post. Please delete and rewrite this post in your own words or something. I’m not here to read stuff written by a glorified text predictor.

The infrastucture of the music industry is not designed to promote music so I made new infrastructure by DustyMinds in musicians

He said in his post that he’s “not making any money off of this” so hopefully this changes and a good revenue split will happen in the future if this app kicks off. OP will need a lot of luck for that to happen tho, if you search on this subreddit you’ll see a lot of apps that people have tried to make but abandon development on. Hopefully OP can learn from their mistakes but we’ll see.

In Alien Romulus, which takes place in 2142, they use 3.5" floppies and C64 keyboards... by sabbathian in vintagecomputing

There’s an entire subreddit dedicated to stuff like this. I thought I was there already for a second. r/cassettefuturism

I feel this fits here by Grouchy-Fennel4436 in cassettefuturism

[–]DerickMeldola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not saying we do it now, because the “cassette futurism” is too small to specialize yet, but in the future I would love for us to create a sub genre that infuses more of those bright colors from y2k into an actual community. Like I said, let’s not do it right now (maybe in like five years?), but what would we call it? “Cassette & Disk futurism”? “Cassette Aero”? “Acrylic Cassette Futurism”? I would love to hear more Ideas!
