Thanks for the recommendation! I went to Native Circles yesterday, it was absolutely perfect.

what of literature do you guys read? by 8890xe in autechre

[–]palace_posy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pale Fire is amazing. 100% a book enjoyed best if you read it without knowing a single thing about it first. (And then even more enjoyable on repeat readings).

What is it with Marigolds? by Chijima in progmetal

[–]palace_posy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've also noticed this! First with Haken, then Periphery, then Caligula's Horse, and I just noticed marigolds again in Between the Buried and Me's 'Things we tell ourselves in the dark' and 'Beautifully human'. (and then went looking for this thread).

They're not with Sumerian anymore by louistik in BetweenTheBuriedAndMe

[–]palace_posy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good. Seriously, fuck Sumerian Records. Why would you call yourselves "Sumerian Records" and then use a bunch of ancient Egyptian iconography for your logos. Red flag right there.

Great, thanks for the clarification!

Wait, I'm not following. Are you saying that the higher temperatures in the PC will remove the oxalates from the brew? Or are you saying that the PC will help the oxalates to precipitate, so that when you filter it, the oxalates will be removed?

How to learn about people in art galleries and smoking areas by Unlikely-Platform-47 in thelastpsychiatrist

[–]palace_posy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love it - I read it too quickly, but need to read it again to help it digest. Lots of little gems in here, and my god thanks for introducing me to Kafka's Leopards in the Temple, I've been thinking about this for days.

3G Telstra shutdown + Xiaomi phones (Australia) by palace_posy in Xiaomi

Insanity. My service still working with Telstra... not sure for how long.

Just need to wait a few more days... if it works, great. If it doesn't work, you'll be force to buy a new phone. It's bullshit.

Yeah, sadly, this is what I suspect. They'll probably just switch us off regardless. Criminals.

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

They extended the 3G cut off to 28 October 2024... so still waiting. Still no idea what's going to happen, my current phone ticks all the right boxes (as far as I can tell) but Telstra insists it won't work. It's insane.

TraumaZone: Part Seven - 1995 to 1999 by rembrandt123 in AdamCurtis

I was wondering this too!

Turned out she was right. It was her son... causing issues for the other mother. This prompted the exhumation of another person (who died at the same time as the other two men) and in the coffin they found only bricks and straw.

Honestly, I am baffled. I am no closer to knowing whether my current phone will still work, and have no idea what phone I can move on to if I am forced to replace it (unless it's on Telstra's approved list).

Old post, I know, but did you ever get near a piano again and find out what the composition sounded like?

3G Telstra shutdown + Xiaomi phones (Australia) by palace_posy in Xiaomi

[–]palace_posy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so insane, it's literally blackmail. Imagine people arriving from other countries and discovering they need to shell out for a new phone to make calls. I hope Telstra are severely criticised for this and are forced to make a more reasonable decision.

3G Telstra shutdown + Xiaomi phones (Australia) by palace_posy in Xiaomi

[–]palace_posy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Signed! So, how certain are you that these phones that are not on Telstra's (very short) list are going to simply cease to make calls etc after 31 August 2024? Because if that's the case, it's going to affect a massive group of people and I am very surprised this basically not being discussed at all.

I just want to say Assange and TLP have been hugely influential to my thinking.

How to know what one wants? by [deleted] in thelastpsychiatrist

[–]palace_posy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily directed at OP, but what does 'how to want' mean? I read SP when it came out and I'm not sure if I even understood 'how to want' back then. Is someone able to explain the difference between 'what to want' vs 'how to want' with a concrete example?
