He made contact with me on Reddit after finding my spotify playlist and asked if I was interested in listening to it and that it might fit. Tycho helped him with the early mixing.
Needless to say songs where added to my list instantly.

Me, my dad, my friend and his dad where present, and all our brains where completely blown that day.
Other then that, hitting Legend in Hearthstone my first time made me float on clouds for a few days. Back then only about 10k people per monthly season made it to Legend(0.01% of the player base). This is one of the few games i really went all in on, and after so much hard work over several months it was immensely satisfying. My first month in Legend was quite memorable to, somehow i managed to get top 200 that season and got to play a few pro players and known streamers, it was pretty surreal at first.

This one morning we woke up and there was this cold and blue light pouring in through a gap in the window. I told her not to move a millimeter and fetched the camera and an ice cube, put it on top of her, and managed to get this shot. After some initial squeaking and it floating around all over her for a bit of course, lol!
I posted another macro shot of my hometown here in the past, and many of you agreed that it was a picture of a mushroom, not my town. There are some similarities between these pictures and many other macro shots i have taken, there is more to it. Most people would say that it's a picture of an ice cube, and be happy with that, i say it's a picture of young love, to me at least.
I'm not sure if i want to describe it further, like the angle or anything. I like the idea that other's can't make out exactly what they are looking at other then the ice cube, and you guys know more then you should already. I have this idea that it might look sensual even though you don't know what the background is. You are left thinking it's sensual, but don't know why, while i know you just looked at some female curves without knowing it.
As usual there is no after work, i simply never spent time learning how to. But with this type of intense natural light who would want to change anything.

The price range i am looking at to achieve this is 1500-1600£ or so. I don't feel like doing my own build this time, and i am considering one of these. It's like having someone else build your perfect gaming pc for you without any extra costs.
My current pc is a webhallen config, and i am sooo pleased with it. i plussed together the prices of the parts of my current pc before buying it, and i basically got the case and water cooling for free + them putting it together and a windows copy to go with.

He has gotten his inspiration from a lot of things, but in particular 60s-70s funk, soul, reggae, psychedelic rock, Afrobeat and folk. His early productions consisted mostly of hip-hop and trip-hop sampled tracks and beats. Often recording his own samples on tape.

That being said, it's been, and will be, a pretty social weekend for me. I spent time with a couple of close friends the other day, and i plan on spending time with family as well.
On Sunday i am heading into the city to eat dinner with my sister and her boyfriend, and i have been considering visiting my parents today and grill up some food. It might sound a bit odd, but i am looking forward to the potential buss ride today if i decide to visit them. On the buss you cannot do anything else then just relax and reflect, it's also my favorite place to listen to music.
I wanted to write something this weekend to, which ended up being a movie review i posted here on Tildes. I have really been enjoying writing lately, with a focus on becoming better at it. I just need to figure out what to write about.
Not long ago a person here on Tildes commented that they would be interested in a short write-up about electro-jazz, so i have slowly been compiling a playlist of the genre in preparation of this. People also seemed to like the review i wrote, so perhaps that's something i can do more of in the future. I thought about it yesterday, and i came up with the idea that i could focus on movies that flew under the radar for most people. -

They are a small local band here in Sweden who has been playing music with each other for decades. All very sympathetic and lovely people that i love spending time with. It was yesterday when i hung out with the bassist and the former drummer that they informed me that the video is finished, and i must say it looks pretty good, even though it´s quite generic. Then again, when there is no money to be spent, going with the approach that they did is understandable.
Fun fact, Niklas, one of the guitarists and the producer of the band, recorded and made all the vehicle sounds for the video game Just Cause 4.

I myself run Firefox with the maximum security settings, HTTPS everywhere, DuckDuckGo privacy essentials, Decentraleyes, UblockOrigin and Privacy Badger as my addons. Even though i use all these addons i don't think it makes a huge change. Allthough, adding a few more addons is not a bad idea, and i can recommend all of these. The more the better imo, as long as the surfing is smooth and all the websites i use work properly.
