Sure, that’s true, though if you allow streams on Bandcamp, those pay $0, so in terms of “try before you buy”, any streaming service is better. It’s only if you actually sell an album on band camp (or AmpWall, a smaller indie service that does a lot of the same stuff) that you’d get paid, as an artist.

I say this as a musician who has put out several albums both independently and with a label.

Tidal pays more than 3x what Spotify pays. Qobuz pays like 5-6x.

I have a small indie-chain theater near me that I go to maybe 4-5 times a year. I also have a projector with a home theater room, so I’m a bit of an enthusiast.

And then John was a zombie

… OK? Is the implication that you make informed decisions despite that, or are you just volunteering info?

Some people are just raised to make informed choices, y’know. Doesn’t mean they’ve got a diagnosable condition, they just aren’t part of the “default settings” tribe.

Like you know allistic nerds exist, right?

I dunno, it won a bunch of awards

It’s a mildly interactive art piece with an overarching plot if you care to dig, and mindless entertainment if not.

You can use it with Jellyfin too, though live TV support varies by the client you use

More importantly, what if it isn’t?

I use Sonarr.

Even if you rip your media, it’s just really good at organizing your media files when you “import” them, plus it can fetch the metadata itself and put it into NFO files, which Jellyfin can both read from and write to, if you enable it. This allows for faster library scans and effectively eliminates the issue of mis-identified episodes/shows.

It could be seen as “forward thinking” in the sense of being open to and accepting of technological progress.

Personally, I think it’s just trend chasing. AI might become deeply useful for many applications someday, but it’s only actually useful for a fraction of what people use it for at the moment.

Don’t pirate from OnlyFans, support small business owners.

I use KISS Launcher. Always fast, predictable and easy to find anything I want.

It was the shining beacon of hope that kindness and humanity can ultimately win out that Superman has always stood for.

And it was funny, and the soundtrack was solid.

The most “Superman” that a movie has been, in my opinion.

Honestly, some of his soundtracks are pretty dank, like Peacemaker and Creature Commandos, but in general I’m just glad he has actual taste and opinions at all instead of making committee-designed market-tested vanilla paste choices like so many other films we see these days.

Valve have had prototype schematics leak a few times for their standalone headset. Internal development name for it is Deckard.

It’s not gonna be good, but it’ll be pretty special effects with Trent Reznor doing the soundtrack. I plan to watch it blazed out of my gourd.

I loved Nope. What a potent commentary on the use/abuse of animals for entertainment and the consequences of human arrogance when it comes to wild animals.

But I get it, it’s scary in a very primal sort of way.

Overall progress is not an aspect of Rogue and is not at all an inherent attribute of Roguelikes.
