    I found a song called 'Dopamine' by Madelline which I enjoyed, but then found out that she has another version, her "split brain" version where they mixed her vocals in both French and English at the same time in different ears, but the music floats independently. I found I really enjoyed this, I felt enveloped in the music. It just felt really nice. Like it feels like if music and the concept of "underwater" was combined into one experience. I'm not sure how to really describe it.

    I tried finding other songs that do this or something similar. I found that 'Trampoline' and 'Melt' by SHAED kind of hit a similar feeling, though less. There were a couple of others but none quite like the first song I found.

    I then discovered "bilateral" music and ones categorized as 8d, 16d, 32d, etc which is kind of interesting but not quite what I'm looking for. Those more take existing songs and move the whole performance around a virtual stage which does feel neat but it's more "around" and not like I'm physically swimming through it.... I know that probably makes no sense.

    In any event, I'm now looking towards trying to find more like it.

    I'd like one too if there are any left! I actually got into their beta but due to life I missed the email and eventually they closed the doors on me and revoked the invite :(

    You have no backups? You allowed write access to your database for a 3rd party without backups?

    I would personally not be ok with it - the FDA says it should be at max 40°f, so having to crank it down to the lowest to get 1 degree above that is suspicious.

    However, it could be your methods of measuring or the thermometer itself. Is this a built in thermometer? Do you have a second one that can corroborate?

    I enjoyed the time I spent on the server. I wish I had more time to put into it but I got my Minecraft fix so all is good.

    Will the new server (in some months) be a new world? I felt like I was coming in "late" where most things were already built and up and running, and it would be neat to be at the ground level on the next round. I will keep a sharp eye out for the next iteration regardless!

    I don't, he mentioned it kind of randomly in a video a while back and I can't find it. However I did see he had a fleet update where he basically said his motivation for the bus was just not there anymore, he didn't want it for it's intended purpose, so maybe I'm conflating another break or ended project.

    He definitely overshot on that idea, but I also think he got divorced in the middle of it and I think he lost motivation due to that (I could be wrong on the timing of that though). Regardless, it would have been a gargantuan task to get the bus going. I would have loved to see the escape finished though, I know he was doing it as an experiment before trying the bus but the escape itself would have been neat and proper fun seeing it tear itself apart, haha

    My wife feels like she's not doing anything for me though so she feels compelled to make up a cake or invite some family over and I go along with it because it makes her happy but if it were truly up to me I'd become a ghost to the world for 24 hours :)

    Our cheapy sheet pans tend to rust when water gets under the folds around the edges, but it doesn't affect the cooking surface, just annoying when it gets rust on a dish towel or something

    My gut reaction was a simple Excel sheet, but I'm wondering what kind of features you're looking for? Qr/bar codes etc?

    I enjoyed it! I'm a casual Hobo Johnson enjoyer, mostly his popular stuff (Subaru Crosstrek XV and Peach Scone). I still need to peruse more of his discography. I know fantano didn't like one of them which caused some rifts but I know he can be easy to disagree with sometimes so I don't give his reviews much thought until I've actually heard the album in question.

    Rather unfortunately, if not via zoom at work, probably nowhere. I work from home and otherwise rarely leave the house. Not great for my mental sometimes but there's always something to do when you're a home owning parent of 2 with a penchant for overthinking and overcomplicating.

    If this were asked of me maybe 6 or 7 years ago, it'd be at a pool hall practicing for my weekly league game. Man I loved that. I have since moved away and I miss it.
