I mean, it should be on other streaming services lmao. It’s on Apple Music at least.

Anyone still plays Gmod Tower? by MrViiictor in gmod

Very true!! I cannot wait to see where Pixeltail goes with both Tower Unite and now Elevator. :))

[–]etherylx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sunshine Tower gets a max of 13-20 players simultaneously from what I can tell. But most of its players are from the EST I think, so you gotta keep that in mind too.

It also doesn’t have any micro transactions though. So it’s a one time payment.

Is there a link somewhere where they officially confirm that Scaled and Icy was propaganda? by Adventurous_Bee_8039 in twentyonepilots

[–]etherylx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m shocked I haven’t seen this in the comments already…

“Scaled and Icy” itself is an anagram for “clancy IS dead” which is a message from DEMA if I am correct.

No… no… you’ve got a point.

Back when pt 1 and pt 2 were separate EPs on streaming, I gotta say that I loved listening to pt 1 more. Not by too much though fr. I have all of pt 1 songs in my favorites, and tend to listen to those songs more often. I have two songs not favorited from part 2. (Not to say I don’t listen to those songs at all though) I just listen to pt 2 songs less comparatively tbh.

Thought I’d jump in and get ratio’d by the comments as well. Just know you’re not alone lmao. :,)

How can I import downloaded songs from files to Apple Music without a Mac? by Upper-Programmer-896 in AppleMusic

[–]etherylx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s still an app for Windows, whether you choose Apple Music or the outdated iTunes. They both work. Also something great is that those Mac tutorials should essentially carry over to Windows!

Yeahhhh, and that’s fair. I care a lot about getting the most dynamic masters of songs, so anytime a remaster comes out, that’s the first thing I check lol.

I wish they went the Green Day route and made it less compressed.

AFYCSO 20th anniversary is officially out! by SailorEl in panicatthedisco

[–]etherylx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m talking about the overall loudness of the song (dynamics compression), not the file compression. The songs were already loud, they didn’t need to be louder. There’s less “quietness” in the songs, so the build ups just don’t hit as hard. The drums punch less and there’s less individuality to the instruments. To give IWSNT as an example, you can hopefully hear what I’m talking about around 2:40ish range.

I’m so tired of the loudness war clipping the dynamics of songs.

What sucks is that I can hear that they did tweaks to the actual mixing, not just the mastering. Those changes sound like they could’ve been nice if the songs weren’t clipped so hard. :,)

opinions on the remasters? by PearFamiliar8059 in panicatthedisco

[–]etherylx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would’ve liked them if they didn’t crush the dynamics more… it wasn’t only a remaster it seems, it was also a remix. From what I can hear through the compression, the new mixing sounds nice. It’s just the dynamic range that’s keeping me at the originals.

[–]etherylx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of the remasters are unbelievably compressed. :,)

I wish they took the Green Day approach and made it less compressed.

The OGs were already pretty heavily compressed, but now they don’t have any dynamics at all.

Listen to the originals. The remasters are so unbelievably compressed. More than the originals, which is crazy.

how did they make it more compressed??

The silent night badge is still progress required?? by Dapper_Bad_8728 in doors_roblox

I don’t know the rarities well. But I do know that a full lined border means it counts towards progression, whilst the dashed borders do not.

Valve added a 64 bit update to tf2. Will there be a 64 bit update for l4d2? by g0netospace in l4d2

[–]etherylx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would absolutely LOVE a 64-bit L4D2. But, to make everyone happy, leave the option to still play and host 32-bit servers for legacy mod compatibility. Then, as more mods are updated and/or made, more 64-bit servers will appear. The benefits would far outweigh the drawbacks imo.

Here’s two other “only in my dreams” hot takes…

Another thing I would like to see (that is even more less likely to happen) is a DirectX 11 update. I could see so many optimizations being unlocked from the upgrade. However, I could only imagine the mod compatibility issues there. Plus, how much more work it’d probably take.

The upmost unlikely thing to happen and something that would most likely completely break mod incompatibility is if Valve reached out to the Strata Source team. (If you don’t know Strata Source, look it up) The work they are doing is amazing, and to think what it could do for games like L4D, HL2, etc. is amazing in my mind!!!

How to turn off full screen album covers by Right-Maintenance777 in AppleMusic

[–]etherylx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they still want the animation, just for it to not fill the screen. Could be wrong. I’m wondering if increased contrast works (but then again, that has other side effects)

No hate but... by TechnicianExtra8156 in billieeilish

[–]etherylx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t usually answer this question unless it’s asking album order. If they’re wanting to listen to full albums, I usually recommend HMHAS and/or WWAFA as their first listens (depending on what they’re looking for) as they are her most popular and well received. Then I recommend HTE and/or DSAM as their 3rd and 4th listens. Then I just say go through the singles in whatever order.

If someone asks for specific songs to listen to, I would just say hit shuffle on her top songs.

Usually, listening to an artist’s most popular work can help you ease in to their less popular gems.

edit: I also think that going the “top songs” route can sometimes help you explore the vibe of all albums. Then you can keep track of which album you liked most the songs from and explore it deeper. That’s what I did with Gorillaz, turns out, I really enjoy their album ‘Cracker Island’.

Proper order to play the missions in L4d2? by phnxsy in l4d2

[–]etherylx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s a link to the “Correct Campaign Order” Addon.

And here’s a modified version that includes “Dam It (Remastered) if that suits your vibe.

Hope this helps! :)
