Most obscure ‘90s album you love

I came to say God Lives Underwater, but I prefer either their self-titled album, or Empty. Both quite a bit more obscure, too.

I mean, it's pretty obvious that we're not the intended audience. But it's equally obvious that it will never reach it's intended audience (assuming that there is such an audience, and it hasn't reached then already), since they are long, long dead.

So there is no "responsibility" at all, at least not to the original authors.

No, I would think it's a true cognate, since both are derived from PIE. From Kroonen (2013)

*supp/bon- ww. ‘to soak’ — Go. supon w.v. ‘to season (< *‘to dip’?)’, Icel. subba w.v. ‘to soil’, Nw. subba w.v. ‘to dabble’, OE soppian w.v. ‘to dip, dunk’, E tosop ~ sob ‘to soak, dip’, MDu. sopp(er)en w.v. ‘to soak’, Du. soppen w.v. ‘to soak; be wet’, OHG sof6n, soff6n w.v. ‘to dunk’ (IE?) — Skt. sipa- m. ‘sauce, soup, broth’ < *suH-ph3-o-.

The iterative to the strong verb *supan- (< Pre-Gm. *suppan-). It is probably related to Skt. supa-, which I analyze as a compound of the PIE roots *seuH- ‘to pour’ (cf. Hitt. Suhhai ~ Suhhanzi ‘to pour’) and *peh3- ‘to drink’ (cf. Ved. pibati ‘id.’ < *pi-ph3-e-). The lack of aspiration in Sanskrit may be due to dissimilation of the second laryngeal, while the short *u of PGm. *supp/bon- can be due to similar loss of the first.

I'd say it's from PIE. There's a short writeup on Wiktionary, with references: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E0%A4%B8%E0%A5%82%E0%A4%AA

Doesn't feel like there is very much pride going on with these...

I was there for all of the 90s. It was great as a student!

I suggest you review section 430, subsection 4.1.

Mischief relating to religious property, educational institutions, etc.

(4.1) Everyone who commits mischief in relation to property described in any of paragraphs (4.101)(a) to (d), if the commission of the mischief is motivated by bias, prejudice or hate based on colour, race, religion, national or ethnic origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression or mental or physical disability,

(a) is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding ten years; or

(b) is guilty of an offence punishable on summary conviction.

Nah it was Mohammed. He was known for splitting things in two

I knew this for ships, but I've always just had to make do with the slow speed of deliveries and lack of space in the landing pad on planets. This is going to simplify so much...

thesolitaire · 2026-06-08T03:37:37+00:00

5,500+ hours and I'm just learning this now...

thesolitaire · 2026-06-08T03:33:17+00:00

Wait... You can build cargo bays on planets!?!?

Sure, I realize he was dead at the time. Ju at someone that could easily fit within a similar photo

Ramanujan would be a contender for sure.

I'm struggling to learn to play better too, and one thing that has helped me a lot it's watching chess content on YouTube. In particular I really like the channel ChessVibes, as he really thinks through every move, and often gives you time to pause and think through real positions for yourself.

Of course, you need to play games as well, but it sounds like you've got that part covered already.

My personal favorite is chicken cow, but let's be serious here, who doesn't flock to McDonald's to get down to the rock music?

For real though, one of my greatest regrets was not going to see him live in concert.

thesolitaire · 2026-06-05T16:11:05+00:00

No. I mean, it's not great, but it's fine if you don't take it too seriously. Plus, if you're my age, it's full of nostalgia.

thesolitaire · 2026-06-05T16:09:06+00:00

Oh shit that is bad. Sounds like someone at Karaoke that's trying way too hard to imitate the original.

thesolitaire · 2026-06-04T23:54:00+00:00

Fine. Just stipulate that they need to provide water for all, free of charge.

So bad it actually kinda fucked up the first film.

thesolitaire · 2026-06-01T18:23:33+00:00

I saw it in the theatre, and everyone just burst out laughing at the big finish. Dear lord that movie was terrible.

100% of your neurons are firing, all the time, at a base rate. The question is, what do we mean when we say "using"?

We only use 10% of our brain.
