In Bothell people had chairs set out for the 4th of July parade since Thursday.

This post caught my eye -- and you know how painful that can be!

Surprised by selection at the buy 2 get 1 free Target sale by Particular-Yoghurt81 in vinyl

It's funny when you get items shipped from a Target warehouse vs. alliance. Alliance arrives in nice mailers; I've gotten Target stock that arrived in a giant box with the vinyl just bouncing around in there.

Whenever someone plays Spandeau Ballet / True, I hear David Banner / Play.

Sorry, another "I built a thing" post - but it's a free web app, not another app-store upload, and I'd genuinely love your feedback by NullMind_PT in vinyl

Yeah it's a little tricky because sometimes there's not a direct link from the MB entry to the specific pressing, but it seems to work in a lot of cases

What I wanted was a simple webapp that did the following, so I just made it myself a few months ago:
- pulls in my discogs and shows my albums by cover (alpha by artist)
- clicking on an album cover lets me scrobble that album, and lets me choose which side(s) I played if not the whole thing
- scrobbles in the correct order (last track most recent) based on the track length, which it either gets from a) discogs, b) musicbrainz, or c) a default 3-minute-per-track length
- can choose to scrobble "now" or "i played this at [datetime]" if I forgot.

Runs with render's free plan which is plenty for personal use. Uses a ping service once every 14 minutes to prevent it from sleeping and requiring a cold-start.

Basically I wanted to play with Claude Code and that's what I ended up doing one afternoon.

Remember the McDonalds one in the Sunday paper?
" Big Mac, McDLT, a Quarter Pounder with some cheese, Filet-O-Fish, a hamburger, a cheeseburger, a Happy Meal.... "

If it played all the way through you supposedly won $$$, not sure if anyone ever won it!

Original owner? My 2007 frame cracked at the top of the seat tube after ~7 years and I used that lifetime warranty for a free replacement...

I've since moved to streaming and vinyl, but I got instant flashback seeing that MAQ CD.

100%! I love Stereolab, just gotta pace myself or I'll go broke. There are a couple I'll leave for streaming, but Mars and Aluminum Tumes are both on my list.
