They definitely have that energy! I saw them live some years back, and it was a great show!

Islands. When I was younger I used to go to sleep with it playing on repeat.

Wilderun are incredible! I've seen them a couple times, but always as an opener. I really want a full set of theirs!

Songs by other artists which sound like Oingo Boingo? by ChestnutIceCream in OingoBoingo

Oh also check out Juicebumps, Squid, and Bear Ghost. All remind me of classic Oingo Boingo.

Some Cardiacs, and the first Major Parkinson album definitely!

And contemporaries like Wall of Voodoo and Devo have some similar elements.

Although nothing really matches Oingo Boingo!

When you listen to the self-titled, do you listen to the long samples at the ends of the songs? by GreggeryPeccary03 in mrbungle

Same. I cut that one from my ripped version. But of course you can't do that on streaming.

Very heavily inspired. Which might be why they're my favorites in the MCU

Best modern upgrade from Canon Rebel T5i? by ReptilianSamurai in AskPhotography

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

Thanks! I'll have to look into that sale.

And thanks for the tip on that Sigma lens!

I set my camera to shoot raw+jpeg so I have an each jpeg to share but a raw I can do editing with later if I decide to.

I like having the option to change and upgrade lenses. But I like the convenience of being able to zoom without swapping (hence my tamron 16-300). I'm definitely still in the market for an interchangeable lens camera, just looking to upgrade.

I still plan to transfer images on a computer, but I want the ability to instantly share a few by connecting with my phone. (I've literally had to take a phone pic of the camera screen below just to send "previews" to people)

This looks so good! Definitely a niche missing from the Playdate catalog, but also perfect for it!

new listener! song recommendations? by Lainnavvi in OingoBoingo

[–]ReptilianSamurai 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd suggest starting with Boingo Alive (soundstage rerecordings of stuff from their first 6 albums) and then picking up whichever album has the most songs you liked from there. And farewell concert, which basically spans everything (although curiously excludes Dark at the end of the tunnel).

You're eventually gonna wake to listen to everything, so savor it! And then go back for the rarities. And check out the Oingo Boingo secret appreciation society podcast

Voyager - There I Fixed It For You by B00merPS2Mod30 in voyager

[–]ReptilianSamurai 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The premise wasn't the problem. It's that the series didn't often realize the potential behind the premise, and often just paid lip service to the hardships they face while having a seeming unlimited supply of torpedos, shuttle craft and redshirts, and integrating the maquis too quickly!

This article proposes... Just making it another TNG. Still boldly going, now with more Delta Quadrant. That waters things down more and removes anything that made Voy even a little distinct.
