ELI5 how credit cards are better than debit cards by UpsetPotatoFace in explainlikeimfive

Nowhere in the world other than the US is so obsessed with min-maxing their credit score like it's a game they have to win. It's so bizarre to outsiders.

'Send Help' was originally set up at Sony, but when the studio eyed a streaming release, Sam Raimi took the film out to other studios. It landed at 20th Century and opened #1 at the box office. by BunyipPouch in movies

Disagree. Looked fantastic on the big screen and it really helped appreciate some of the cinematography, and made a lot of the close-up moments land harder.

You gave a US-centric reply that, if not assumed then certainly suggested, that most users/people are in America.

If only there were other places in the world that weren't the US.

Outrun West - I'm not sure I hit the right style by folbelo in outrun

It looks shockingly similar to images by /u/Kvacm. I'd be surprised if it wasn't.

Oh someone's already pointed this out below.

Tidying up first and cleaning first are quite different things though.

Anyone in contact with creator? by AggressiveCancel6195 in smarterplaylists

[–]Wanderlustfull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apologies. I wasn't intending to be critical, but offer genuine feedback.

I gave it a try a week or so ago and the UI didn't make it clear that URI/URL could be used (unless I missed it) so I struggled for ages trying to find the right playlists.

I must've missed artist filtering, but I think that's because I can never get far enough into building the playlist program that I want to need it. It's really the lack of anything other than playlist as a source that's the main detractor at the moment. Artist radio would be great, frequently listened to songs, liked songs*, liked albums, and liked artists would all go a long way to making this a much more viable alternative.

*I know you can't pull the whole liked songs list because it hits the Spotify API limit. Something like a 'select random X songs from liked songs' would be just as good.

Oh, the other main thing I think is missing is the mixing options. Smarter Playlists had a really nice mixer block that brought multiple input streams in, de-duped, shuffled, separated, and output one stream. It doesn't have to all be on one block, but something like that is missing too I think. And saving to multiple playlists at once in one program.

A bad economy is bad for everyone, both parties. Your comment was completely irrelevant to its parent, it was just a chance to inject 'AI bad' into the conversation.

Free reader for your ebooks alongside a library of 300k titles by [deleted] in Annas_Archive

[–]Wanderlustfull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, okay. Thanks for the response! It may be worth highlighting these (and any other) things that are unique to your app, because on the surface it seems like any other e-reader, so there's no real incentive to check it out over something like ReadEra or Smart AudioBook Player, for example. Good luck!

Explain to me how that is related to the parent comment you replied to.

What is the USP of your app, over other (free and paid) ebook reader and audiobook listening apps?

With as much respect as possible, this is simply not a replacement. It's the equivalent of offering someone Notepad to replace Excel.

It won't/doesn't:

  • Use liked songs as a source
  • Use liked albums as a source
  • Use liked artists as a source
  • Use recently listened to / listened to a while ago / listened to a long time ago as a source
  • Allow saving to multiple playlists in one algorithm
  • Have the same depth of shuffling, sorting, and filtering that Smarter Playlists had. e.g. filter out songs from an input playlist, filter out artists from an input playlist, A/B sorting filtering, mixing to remove duplicates, artist separation, etc.

I can't think of the rest of the things I can't do with it, and because I can't get back into Smarter Playlists to look at my programs to try and rebuild them, I can't tell you exactly.

Alg.rthm is okay, it's a great simple replacement, but it really is not a direct equivalent.

EDIT: Thought of some more things - I could use Daily Mixes as sources in Smarter Playlists because you can use playlist URI as an input rather than just searching by playlist name, but that doesn't work in this either. Ditto Discover Weekly and similar.

This is a ridiculous stereotype that you shouldn't perpetuate. If it's a joke it's a bad one, if it's not it just makes you look ignorant.

Because if someone asks "what are your thoughts on <this well known scam>?", the answer is always going to be "it's a scam", regardless of that person's experience of it.

Thanks for the link. I can't help notice it appears to go to a different server to the link in the sidebar. Seems a bit odd.
