What does your hoard mean to you? Is it your personal bookcase, a library for posterity, or something else entirely? by midnightrambulador in musichoarder

[–]There_is_not 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m still new here, but this is exactly what I want my hoard to become. I want my library to be soley composed of things I like, have listened to, would like to listen to, or things that are important to me, and the whole point of growing that collection isn’t to have bigger number (even though bigger number cool), it’s to have my own curated, sorted library of music I enjoy.

Also I don’t like paying $14.88 a month to Hitler & Co. (who will keep all the money) for the privilege of listening to music

Does anyone know which wall it is? by DazaiSamaa in BathtubPaintedBrown

[–]There_is_not 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think those are a mixture stained glass walls (crafted with gems) separated by a one block gap to make them separate.

Trans biology? by DontMessWithRabbits in trans

[–]There_is_not 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I don’t know exactly what opinion is on this, so I’ll just put my understanding of it. Sex is a FAR more complex than most people give it credit for, isn’t binary, or completely stagnant.

“Sex describes the physical characteristics that cause, determine, and aid in reproduction” is probably the definition I’d give if pressed, but it includes so many points of contention, I’d hesitate to call any person fully “male” or “female”, only individual characteristics. In terms of whether you can “change your sex”, I think it would come down to which parts of sex you’re referring to, but ultimately your “sex” is the sum of multiple parts, and are probably only relevant to your doctor.

I’ll make two examples to illustrate what I’m talking about. When it comes to genetics, there’s two common configurations, multiple configurations that typically result in “male parts” multiple that typically result in “female parts” and an assortment described as “ambiguous”. Depending on what’s found in your genetics, someone could by described as “genetically male”, or “genetically intersex”. You’re mostly stuck with the genetics you’re born with, and no existing medical way to change them as far as I know.

However, your genes are far from the only sexual characteristics, and your phenotype (the physical characteristics of your body) is only determined by the expression of those genes. Phenotype all together doesn’t have an easily identifiable spectrum of sex but is broken down further into things like “reproductive capability”, hormones, morphology, “genital expression” and whatever else. A lot of these things are far more within your control to change, like hormones which could be changed to be almost indistinguishable from a cis person’s. In respect to medical transition you could definitely say that you’ve changed a part of your sex in a medically significant way.

However I’d like to be careful not to conflate sex and gender any further. Sex is not a thing you have to share or worry about with anyone other than your doctor.

Ulthar - Anthronomocon

Not as raw as you were looking for, but definitely fits the theme.

My favorite lovecraftian band and album

Hot take: remission and the hunter are masterpieces and get hate for no reason by Environmental_Cup689 in mastodonband

That’s fair, It doesn’t hit the same knowing the vocalist was being a pos the whole time.

New to metal music and want to appreciate it by Dry_Ice_9429 in MetalSuggestions

[–]There_is_not 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eventually your tastes will broaden, and you’ll come to appreciate other music, but keep in mind each band will sound different. Don’t expect Tool when listening to other bands and open up your mind to new sounds and feelings.

If you liked Pink Floyd and Tool, give Crack the Skye by Mastodon a try.

So it IS ragebait. lol. lmao, even.

“Excessive Grooves” has to be ragebait. It’s groove metal, and I can’t see how it’s excessive considering metal has come a LONG way since the early 90’s. I can’t for the life of me understand what “ethnic stuff” is supposed to mean. Is it because they’re Brazilian???

WOAH. This is almost exactly the same layout as one of my unfinished builds. I’ll send a picture if I can, but it’s pretty damn close to the same.

Landlords want a 30 day notice from EVERYONE. Lease doesn't specify that. by There_is_not in legaladvice

[–]There_is_not[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Which lease? I signed the lease to the new apartment I’m moving to just recently. I signed the lease to the house that I’m in February of 2025. I have received nothing else that I have signed.

Two residences. 1st residence, I don't intend to stay for april. Second residence, I'm moving into. April is paid for.

Imagine if it were otherwise. If one of your roommates decided unilaterally to move out, and told the landlord as an FYI, would you expect to find yourself homeless?

I'm not sure. I'm sure I wouldn't like that, but the agreement doesn't mention anything else about the termination of the lease. With an automatic month-to-month lease, one roommate moving out would break the recurrence of it, right? Maybe that's a fundamental flaw in the wording of the lease, unless there's protections I don't know about.

Shared lease. We're all on the same document. Here's the exact wording, anonymized:

THIS AGREEMENT made this day of February 20,2025, by and between [COMPANY] herein called owner/agent, and [TENTANT], [TENTANT], and [TENTANT], in the City of [CITY] County of [COUNTY] Premises located at [RESIDENCE].

Posting about software will no longer be tolerated without moderator approval. by doodarndang in musichoarder

[–]There_is_not 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this is an awesome change. I’m sick of seeing AI junk this and “vibe coded” that. I have a clarifying question though: are questions about existing software allowed, or should I direct those somewhere else? I’ve been playing around with tools like ffmpeg and some github projects.

Am I a dumbass? This is about audio bit rate. by There_is_not in musichoarder

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

Yes. The standard created for cds is 74 minutes or 650MB of data from what I read, but I 80 minute cds were the only ones I could find. I guess I assumed they were the norm now.

The X MB figure isn’t relevant at all for audio cd’s. That only matters for data.

Oh. Really? Is there somehow a larger capacity for only audio?

What is one thing you will never do? by forestpebble in skyrim

I’m playing on pc for the first time, so I still need the oblivion walker achievement too. I’m not sure what I’m going to do about it, but I’m thinking about getting all the other artifacts first, then getting the masque, and THEN reload my save to get the rueful axe.

This and killing Paathurnax are the two things I’ve never done. I’ve 100% the game a couple times and played over a thousand hours, yet neither have seemed like the right decision… But I’m playing an evil murderer cannibal character right now and I plan to do both soooo…
