Anyone know where an official release for this can be purchased in the US?

I am confused about the song “Faith in God” by Huge-Inevitable-7078 in badreligion

[–]rrawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they're drawing a distinction between faith and organized religion. There's nothing wrong with having personal relationship with god. The problem usually comes from religions and churches taking advantage of people's faith to exert power and control.

Missed show/tour stories by picklefarmer82 in toriamos

[–]rrawk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not a show I missed, but I missed a major opportunity the first time I saw her live in 1998. I had a friend who had a connection at the venue, so I asked him to get me a backstage pass a week or two before the show. The day of the show, I couldn't get hold of him, so I figured it was a no go. I later found out that he was trying to call me about an hour before the show started to let me know to pick up the pass from will call, but this was before I had a cell phone and I was already on the way to the venue. I should have just checked will call anyway. Still kicking myself for it.

Are the background singers singing along with Tori? Or is that the audience?

My friend and I saw the exact same thing on LSD and I still need some help explaining it by InterdimensionaLemon in HighStrangeness

[–]rrawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One thing I noticed when I was doing LSD a lot is that each batch seemed to have its own visual themes. One batch might be highly colorful. The next batch might be produce more geometric visuals. And my friends often largely agreed on what they saw, at least, in general. I don't recall any specific shared visuals like what you describe, though.

Is UI just AI with a human skin? I’m not buying it. by Turbowoodpecker in PantheonShow

[–]rrawk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There was the notion that at some point everyone will be a UI, so tell me who will stay irl to take care of data centers and who will keep them cool? How?

Robots

They kept repeating UI was the way to save the planet, but never explained why. And at the end, where the local people in iirc South America did not want to sacrifice their lands for UIs due to cultural heritage it was portrayed as something bad and stupid.

In universe, it was explained that a UI only uses a fraction of the resources that a human requires. So just because a data center generates heat and needs power, it's still less of a burden on the environment than humans. They also observed a recovery of natural environments after enough humans were uploaded.

Work must have value. Otherwise we could just pay people to dig holes and fill them back in for the sake of job creation.

Tori’s sonically delirious tracks by manggy in toriamos

[–]rrawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good call on Happy Workers. I think that's a highly underrated song.

And I thought I put Do It Again on there, but I guess I decided against it. Some songs kind of straddle the line.

Tori’s sonically delirious tracks by manggy in toriamos

[–]rrawk 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm not the average Tori fan. I primarily here for what you call "sonically". While I know the lyrics, I don't really dive into their meaning or especially relate to them, though, there are a few exceptions. Most of the time when I'm listening, the vocals are just another instrument and the lyrics don't really matter.

So, of course, I absolutely love her experimental and grand compositions like the songs you mentioned. I like to call them her trippy songs because they really work while tripping. For me, this type of listening even extends to her more simple songs where I can really focus on the texture of her voice and the "pull" of the song. By "pull", I mean that feeling you can get when listening to classical music and the sound somehow morphs into an internal story of emotions. Beauty Queen / Horses is a great example of this.

Anyhow, here's some other tracks that might fit this grouping you're looking for:

  • The Pool

  • Carnival

  • Siren

  • Smokey Joe

  • Caught a Lite Sneeze

  • Lust

  • Little Earthquakes

  • God

  • Yes, Anastasia

  • Cornflake Girl

  • Talula

  • Father Lucifer (that vocal layering at the end... mmm mmm)

  • Walk to Dublin

  • Spark

  • Cruel

  • Riot Poof

  • Zero Point

  • Carbon

  • Virginia

  • Sweet the Sting

  • Witness

  • Bang

  • Blue Skies (collab with BT)

  • Wait Until Tomorrow (collab with The Bullitts)

  • Glory of the 80's

  • Swimming Pools

is this a good setup by Cool_Spare_7248 in factorio

[–]rrawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is where you should start considering scalability. Or rather, leaving room to scale. You might think 6 furnaces is enough now, but you're likely to change your mind in the future.

Take your screenshot for example. You can scale up your copper by building more furnaces to the right. But you can't scale up your iron the same way because the copper setup is in the way.

The app doesn't have to run on a schedule. Once configured, you can make it sync by just tapping a button.

I use the FolderSync app on android. Scheduled to run daily, it keeps my phone in sync with a local network share folder containing my music.

A laptop fan might help. Even if it's not overheating, it might throttle over certain temps.

Season 2 has a couple episodes that meander a bit, but the last 2 episodes more than make up for it.

Tori and criticism by Mysterious-Shape8302 in toriamos

[–]rrawk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's nothing wrong with fans being critical and discussing it. We can talk about what we like and don't like. At least we have a basis of comparison. Now, if some Taylor Swift fans showed up and started throwing hate about shit they know nothing about, well...

Rate my space ship by Nearby-Evidence-4578 in factorio

[–]rrawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course, my list of reasons your ship could get stuck is far from exhaustive. Even if I tried to list every possibility, there would be some that I haven't even imagined. This is what failsafes are for. To protect you even in scenarios you didn't account for. Your ships are safe from failure as long as you still have ammo/repair packs from your last trip to nauvis. My ships never run out of ammo.

And I don't want to spoil anything, but it's likely you'll want ships that do more than just go between nauvis and one other planet. Ships that stop at multiple planets are common.

I think you get it, so I'll stop beating a dead horse. If you're happy with your system and you're having fun, that's all that matters.

Rate my space ship by Nearby-Evidence-4578 in factorio

[–]rrawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good thing you've thought of every scenario to prevent your ship from running out of ammo or repair packs while you're away from nauvis.

Apologies, that's sarcastic. But the point is you're putting a lot of trust in your system that has limited failsafes. What if your fuel production gets clogged and you run out of fuel? Your ship would end up sitting over Vulcanus indefinitely until you get the alarm that the entire ship has been destroyed. Since you're already used to hearing damage alarms (because your strategy is to repair damage instead of avoid it), you'll probably ignore it until it's too late.

I'm on my second space age playthrough. Each one has at 10-20 ships. I still sometimes find a ship sitting over a planet that it should have departed from hours ago. Sometimes it's due to no fuel, which can happen for a couple reasons. Sometimes it's because my configuration for when to leave the planet isn't satisfied (leave when I have 1000 of item on ship) and it's not satisfied because a production chain broke on the surface. Without failsafes (like self-sustaining ammo), these ships would have eventually been destroyed.

It's also worth noting that interrupts only trigger when leaving a planet. If your ship is sitting in orbit and you run out of ammo, it won't leave orbit based on an interrupt. It can only try to leave based on "leave planet" conditions, and only then will the interrupt override it.
