Ok here's my personal gripes/nitpicks

Music:

  • overlay band name on band tile. I know the name is up top, but I don't recognize a lot of those tile pics and have to go one by one trying to find the right one.
  • when I click a band tile, the "Albums" icon is too small. Ideally have album tiles horizontal along the bottom, but at least make the icon bigger and put next to Instant Mix, also a "all songs" next to "albums".
  • Instant Mix is confusing, it seems to be shuffle just name it shuffle, and if you hit shuffle from a band details I'd expect it to shuffle just that band, vs "Shuffle All" from main screen, or Shuffle album from album details, etc.
  • when playing and play/pause is focused, if I could push "up" to focus the progress bar, and then left/right to fast fwd/rewind, or "ok" btn to enter a time to skip to (think, where I left off in this 20 hour long audiobook)

Movies section had some nitpicks too. Like wishing there was a quick bar when you focus a movie, or at least putting "un/mark watched" in the asterisk menu instead of having to drill into it. The rest is probably just me needing to get used to the playback button design, like pushing up I'd expect to see progress bar and some quick functions but instead I see file info which doesn't seem like a common thing I'd care to look at. Similarly, being able to click the progress bar and skip to a time would be wonderful vs hitting "right" a hundred times on my crappy Roku remote ๐Ÿ™‚

Hope you found my complaining useful!

I believe the thank you was regarding the mod-friendly mindset of early valve. A section in the game menu for loading new mods and it shipped with a mod (TFC, which was based off a community mod for Quake)

When you're juggling too many interrelated tangents in your brains RAM and start getting cache misses like crazy and go full core dump

Reminder that Facebook hates you and pays people to develop ways to manipulate and control your behavior. Request to download your account data, delete your account, and go outside. It's less scary than you're making it and you'll feel better in the end.

I would think if someone's up to some actual shady shit that they don't want to draw the attention of any authorities, they'd be better off using a combination of several of the most popular web mail accounts, like Gmail, and manually encrypting the message before pasting it in or something I dunno, just bc it seems like surveillance systems become less effective with more collection volume, and Gmail has a lot of users

Give it a shot, can't hurt. You won't become Buddha overnight, but it can certainly put you on a path toward much different ways of seeing yourself and everything around you.

Many of us do it for sport tbh. A healthier way to gamify life sorta. I've been vegan since 2015/16 and it does increase the difficulty setting somewhat, but also it's unlocked a million fun mini games for me along the way and provided much needed community.

Depends I guess how you define "getting" something. We're constantly getting things, viruses and small infections, and having no idea about them. Especially if you're in a cubicle at work near somebody with young kids, oh meh gerd. I wouldn't want to know about everything my body is fighting off on a daily basis.
