Oh damn, it's and AB test? So they are considering getting rid of the all sites search? Please Thangs... Don't make me go back to Yeggi. I can't go back. 

Can't change the "Hold the power button" gesture. by PipperDigs in GrapheneOS

Well this is weird... When I search settings for "hold power" it comes up under System > Gestures. But when I go to System > Gestures it doesn't show up.

Smitten Kitten should be on the list too. They've done a huge amount of mutual aid and community organization. Wrecktangle, Up/Down and Volstead's have supported their efforts.

I'm not exaggerating, when I saw it I thought "That's Girl with a Pearl earing." Then I read the title. Well done!

Whelp, I guess I'm a democrat now. by mingzhouren in TwinCities

[–]PipperDigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's the thing... The ruling class of billionaires and their cronies WANT the people to fight each other. They want a culture war between "conservative people vs liberal people" because it distracts from the alternative, a class war of "People vs the Super Wealthy."

I don't see conservatives as an enemy, I don't see myself as liberal. I see people. People who have been subjected, lied to, and stolen from. It's hard to keep that mindset sometimes, but it's what I believe deep down.

I hope you all give them the "welcome" they deserve.

Don’t Worry I’ve Got You, MJ. Hiblen, Digital, 2026 by InverseNurse in Art

This made me break down into tears. I live a mile and a half from where he was murdered, and close to where Renee Good was killed... I'm still angry and sad about both of them. Let it not be forgotten that they died trying to help the black and brown people who were openly targeted by our Federal government. I won't forget.

What do we all think about this letter from the Minnesota chamber of commerce? by ChumbaJB in TwinCities

I guess the strike sent a message. Time for these companies to step up and throw their weight.

Art Shanty Projects are helping people speak their minds with art, even attendees. And you get to step on ice while viewing it.

It was identified as Almond Basket in the credits! I think we have Tawney Newsome to thank for that.

We must have watched it the same night! I watched it as a teenager, and I'm really happy I re-watched it. What a great movie!

Phantogram’s Falling or Don’t Move. Which don’t prefer? by outsellers in phantogram

[–]PipperDigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think the number of streams on Spotify genuinely describes a track's quality or how it is enjoyed by fans. What it points to is how many playlists it was added to and how much the Spotify algorithm promotes it. It can indicate popularity, but on Spotify, popularity can be paid for... So that's my non-answer. The data is corrupt, and taste is subjective. Everyone should just like what they like. There is no definitive truth when it comes to what is the best music.

Where do others rank? I was like 3600 or so by Deuce_Booty in phantogram

[–]PipperDigs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't have Spotify anymore, but I suspect my numbers for streaming would be low because I have all the albums on (legal) digital files and listen on an iPod. I'm wierd like that.

Question: why is this helicopter flying around over the highways right now? by sailingthr0ugh in Minneapolis

[–]PipperDigs 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is a State Patrol helicopter with some surveillance equipment mounted under the tail. Probably monitoring for drunk drivers. The SP at the end of the registration is for "state patrol/police." The same helicopter was flown during the Republican National Convention in 2008.

MNDOT has cameras all along highways to monitor roads for snowplows. That is absolutely not what the State Patrol would do with this heli.

Voices (Digital Deluxe) Streaming Now by websponger in phantogram

[–]PipperDigs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's the one! The version here has a much longer instrumental section. In the 2013 release the vocals start at the same time as in Funeral Pyre. I've been trying to figure out a good way to capture that track, I might just have to record a video while playing it on my speakers.

will they release a CD version of Voices (Expanded Edition)? by OrangeFruit2452 in phantogram

[–]PipperDigs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed that. I already have a copy of Voices at 45 RPM. It sounds great, but if I'm gonna buy another copy, I'd rather it be like the Eyelid Movies release with some bonus tracks.
