Another year in music. To my own surprise not a single rap track and only minimal amount of rapping in one or two. Also, not a single @bmthofficial song, but 7(!) that have some BMTH affiliated writer/producer. Enjoy! https://t.co/35S9ngKcEK

An American band quits Spotify because the CEO invested in a defense company, proceeds to pay taxes in the US... Logical. Absolutely logical.

If you scroll through your lame Spotify for Artists Wrapped stats long enough, you can find a slide that looks fairly impressive 😅

My PC consolidation dilemma (3 to 1-2) was getting on my nerves, so I wrote all of my thoughts down and gave them to several "deep research" AIs. Perplexity's answer looked the best from both reasoning and a clear final recommendation but... the PC it recommeded doesn't exist 😂

TFW you saw a BF deal ad on YouTube that actually made sense to take advantage of, but you couldn't click through on the TV and now you don't remember what it was :/

Say what you want about modern music but 30 years ago a popular heavy band couldn't release a track like this

Switched on my Windows PC after 1.5 month on macOS. While my muscle memory is clearly broken this still feels more like Home.

Weird thing about working in an English-first company with virtually no native speakers is that your fluency improves with time but your grammar is getting worse. Why bother if you can take shortcuts and there's no one to correct or shame you?

With moving out of coworking and getting a new work MBP I now have 4 computers that I have to maintain 🤦🏻‍♂️ 1. Home desktop PC (music workstation) 2. Heavy Windows convertible (travel) 3. Mac Mini 4. Work MBP I need to optimize the first 3 into 1 or 2 at most. Suggestions?

1. I'll cancel Apple TV+ trial 3 days in advance, so I don't forget and then watch the remainder of this TV show ➡️ Apple cancels the account immediately. 2. I'll cancel LinkedIn Premium trial so I can stop watching this educational course ➡️ Premium stays on until the end date.

git suddenly stopped working in VS Code on the Mac. And in the terminal as well. Turns out Xcode got updated and I didn't launch it and as a consequence didn't accept the updated license text. And that broke git throughout the system. WTF?

Choosing between 2 rain coats (different brands). Decided on one and then tried to put my S24 Ultra into the inner pocket and... it didn't fit. Sale lost.

When you are too lazy to go to the seaside for the Barcelona drone show, the 10x zoom from the hotel's rooftop bar x 20x crop should do.

This Uber driver had a playlist of RATM, followed by Eiffel 65, followed by Nickelback. I guess his idea was to cover all the bases, but the end result was making sure that someone is annoyed at all times.
