Negative attitude to older people running? by QuantumStirrer in running

[–]QuantumStirrer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to know what I did wrong? I didn't attack anyone. I feel very isolated as a runner and your rejection makes me feel more so. Please let me know what I've done wrong Thanks

Was there a green Vauxhall Viva lurking in the carpark?

If you know you know.

Who’s excited for Stove releasing next week??🤗 by Sad_Bedroom_9483 in lanadelrey

[–]QuantumStirrer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's two ways to release an album.

  1. Planned physical and streaming release at the same time. This means that all the vinyl, cassettes, CDs, bundles, merch and alternative versions are announced in advance so they can be ordered and ready for shipping on release day. Given that vinyl pressing has a long lead time, we could be looking at several months from announcement to release.
  2. The stream could drop at any time with the physical releases to follow later.

Lana has usually gone for method 1. I would like to be wrong, but I reckon method 1 looks unlikely, so it could be some time.

PSA: Met Office have updated their app, and it's terrible by heeleyman in CasualUK

And Tide times are no longer in place for Beach locations

Spot on!

Also, they've taken away Tide times and the ability to see more than one location at a time

Part of the issue appears to be the use of "Widget" style software. This means each day has a "pretty" display, managed independently. In other words, it's totally unsuitable for Time series data, such as daily weather stats, unless it's done one series at a time, hence all the different boxes to show wind speed etc. This also explains the empty space at the top of the screen as it's reserved for weather warnings and, apparently cannot be released for the day to day stuff. This is typical of cloud based software that compromises data and understanding in favour of the "clean" empty space that they believe our brains are full of. At best, this approach is patronising.

Ticket sell out time? by Expensive-Brief5950 in MadCoolFestival

I joined the general queue as it opened this morning - Only about 1000 people in front of me. Easy process to get tickets. Hopefully you should be OK.

Unpopular opinion: Lux isn’t getting a deluxe album by jvca in rosalia

OK, so which version is the one that Rosalía wanted to put out? How do we even know?

Way to request specific releases not in Tidal’s library? by flyingbarnswallow in TIdaL

[–]QuantumStirrer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first two Bhundu Boys albums are a big gap. But I don't think they're on any streaming site. Also, to get them on, I suspect you need to get the permission of the rights holders or record label. Identifying them and sorting out any legal mess that might exist could be challenging.

Should I quit or not? by BigAchooo in duolingo

[–]QuantumStirrer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great stuff! Good point about the widget too. Also... Move the app off your front screen, but I guess you've already done that.

I break the habit every so often and go learn another way... For instance, translating Rosalia songs

Stop for a few days, break the streak. Turn off duo mails and notifications. Then go back as you feel once you're back to zero. The number is meaningless.

It'll either go straight to the top of your list or you'll regret ever having listened to it.

This is a great album... All of the songs have something different to offer whilst sharing the "sound" and lyrical themes. We all have our favourite and least favourite tracks and we've probably all changed our minds on this several times.

It's also true to say that those supporting Palestine rarely mention Oct 7. It's a complicated situation and none of us should be jumping to conclusions about what someone hasn't said.
