@corlin Ha! Next time I hit a snag I might ask you first!
@corlin Welcome to searching the forum vs. standing in line at the genius bar. 😁 Interested to see how you likethe Sys76 over time. (Currently running a ZaReason box, and they're gone now....)
@stratkitten Plus, if you've seen the "earrings" they're thinking of, they're huge - more like buds with a big faux pearl attached. VP is what, 5'4"? - so, no....
Grasping at straws.

The Real Story Behind Viral Pic!
the guy picked up 2 WILD geese that were hit by a car in Columbus--that's 45 minutes from Springfield, DUH, where #DonOLDTrump's wild #pet eating claims supposedly occurred

Any 'nauties in the NE DFW - I'm at Four Bullets Brewery in Richardson tonight, first strike of the 12 string at 6:30. Lots of original songs (with some not the usual covers) and craft beer in a "cozy" taproom! #livemusic
@nursefrombirth Horrible, rapacious company. Shut them down and forgive every loan they administer, just for the lousy way they treat borrowers.
@bluesbaby ...segment also known as "the clench." 😁
@Ellico2020bis There is a special corner of purgatory reserved for a local dj who burst in talking over that bass outro....
"The most important new thing I saw her do was prebunking. Pre-, not de-. Debunking is waiting for someone to lie and then hitting back with the truth....prebunking works better. Prebunking is explaining to people how they are being (or, better yet, will be) manipulated, what the motive is, how the con works, how the lie will be crafted and how it will function, and, for extra credit, who benefits from it and how."

@tgraph52 I will say that Amazon streaming payouts are higher than most (among the least tiny might be a better way to put it).
But no, I don't trust Bezos any further than I could punt him.
With the exception of Tidal, these companies are born of tech people, not music people.
@tgraph52 Yup. Since April.
If they don't give you the boot over the pretense of "playlist fraud" while their own AI lists feature their own AI crap.
"Meanwhile, Spotify stopped paying out for songs by actual humans that get less than 1,000 plays, even though those songs still generate money for the company. This might not sound too crazy until you realize that that accounts for 2/3 of the content on the streaming service. That's a lot of money—that's now getting paid out to executives and, it seems, AI scammers."

What the pro-#gun people don't seem to understand is that none of us opposed to gun violence are especially interested in the guns per se; we don't fetishize them, even in a negative way, the way they do. Our problem is the violence, the wounds, the death, the lasting psychological scars.
If there were a way to end that violence and let people have their guns for sport or a masculinity crutch or whatever, we'd be fine with it. But they've had decades to apply their supposed solutions–+
Two separate occasions today, young boys crop dusting the lesson studio - what are they feeding these kids???
