- Comment on people who take zoom calls in coffee shops are insufferable 14 hours ago:
I go and drink my coffee in another place that also has coffee.
The coffee shops have long been ruined by these laptop people.
I walk passed a huge one often, front is all glass like a giant fish tank.
A line of about 25 people in a row plastered against the window facing outside.
All of them alone, all with laptops.
None of them see me pass by less than 1 meter in front of their dead stares.
More of them inside.
I don’t want to drink coffee in a dystopian office filled with these worker drones.

Maybe they should stop being among the most obese people in Europe then if they care so much about their health?
- Comment on UK weather: Amber extreme heat warning issued as 35C heatwave approaches 2 weeks ago:
then going down stairs or riding a bike is ‘extreme’

Highest were over 30C regularly in the 1800’s and later a peak under 30C was rare.
35C is NOT ‘extreme’ for humans or an exceptional temperature.
Yes it’s hot. But nothing more than that. - Comment on UK weather: Amber extreme heat warning issued as 35C heatwave approaches 2 weeks ago:
I can take 45C on holiday if it’s dry heat.
But 24C and humid feels horrible.
But ‘dangerous’ is as exaggerated as ‘extreme’
Unless you’re old or have health issues. - Comment on UK weather: Amber extreme heat warning issued as 35C heatwave approaches 2 weeks ago:
It doesn’t matter where you are, or that it has occurred more.
It’s relative to what humans feel.
30C was never uncommon in the summer.
Even for UK calling that ‘extreme’ is sensationalism.
Extreme would be closer to 40C - Comment on UK weather: Amber extreme heat warning issued as 35C heatwave approaches 2 weeks ago:
35C is not ‘extreme heat’
It’s called summer.

I wonder why the Tommy boys are never waving a Russian flag?
Invariably it’s a fascist israeli one.

- Comment on Music just isn't good anymore 5 weeks ago:
Dubstep is just as much a recycled genre/subgenre as anything else?
If you’re after something new to your ears it really shouldn’t fit neatly into any genre, right?I have to disagree.
There is obviously a use of dub basslines but how it was used and everything else about it gave me that buzz I only get from a new genre.
That moment when you’re witnessing the next step in the evolution of electronic music.
Same as I had when hearing jungle for the first time, even if that also had faster recycled loops.
It was undeniably new and a genre in itself.
TBC it’s not the being ‘new’ that is important, but the fact that I have a lot of stuff to listen to from artists exploring the new genre.
I really like floating points BTW, the rest I haven’t heard of.who was doing lush layered multi instrument compositions like this over electronic music pre-2000 not named Bjork?
I think there’s a few.
You name some individual artists here, of course there are plenty with their own unique sound, for me Autechre is the best example.
So yes there’s plenty of stuff to listen to, old stuff, cumbia, folk or whatever, but as I said, it’s been a long time since I’ve heard anything that can be justifiably labeled as a new genre in electronic music leading to a wave of artists exploring that specific discovered road. - Comment on Music just isn't good anymore 5 weeks ago:
I have a question about electronic music only.
Since it really exploded in the 80’s/90’s plenty genres have evolved.
But for me I can’t think of anything after dubstep in 2003 that is worth being called ‘new’.
Recycling and sub-genres at best.
Like everything has been done before. Does anyone feel this way or am I missing something? - Comment on Music just isn't good anymore 5 weeks ago:
Isn’t that proof?
They’re not new artists.
And there are millions of people making music, of course there are exceptions to the general trend.
But thanks for the tip. Dusting off my chromatic dreamcoat and checking it out right now. - Comment on Music just isn't good anymore 5 weeks ago:

- Comment on Italy’s top court rules against tourist refused tap water in Dolomites hotel 1 month ago:
It’s a high end resort with its own heli pad.
They will serve the cuisine and drinks they have on their undoubtedly carefully curated menu.
If they don’t like it, don’t go there, leave a nasty Yelp review or whatever, end of story.This has absolutely nothing to do with ‘access to sanitation’ as you imagine here or worse that woman’s dramatic claim of violating her human rights to water.
Making the equation with billions of people that are suffering and dying to this day from lack of warter is grotesk and offensive.
This pretentious Karen wasted the court’s time and resources twice for her shameful whims.
It improves absolutely nothing. - Comment on Italy’s top court rules against tourist refused tap water in Dolomites hotel 1 month ago:
Guess she’s not the only Karen.
You would probably cry about your human right to food being violated when a 3 star restaurant denies you entrance because you showed up in your filthy flip flops.
