I always get confused why people are upset when a console doesn't have exclusive games, while also being upset that streaming services have too many exclusive titles

I hate how people always sell having your own music collection as objectively superior to streaming. It's more expensive and more of a hassle managing your playlists on multiple devices. Yeah self hosting is a thing, but that's even more of a hassle. And you also pay for electricity hosting it

I do not remember plugging her into my computer

Note: this is the third time a will wood song broke my music player

There needs to be more horror games like old sl, where the horror isn't "big scary creature", but the fact that you can loose everything at every moment and receive extreme punishment when you die

I must have some kind of electric super powers. The amount of times I create a spark when trying to use my computer is ridiculous. Even managed to crash it yesterday

My own music player that can synchronize playlists between devices at it's current state

The obligatory clippy:

A comically long list of opened tabs related to avalonia

the making an app in avalonia experience

Linux bad, dbus is a fuck, I am music player man

It works!

Had to take a shower in my dream on a sloped balcony with gimmicks, not sure if I want any more now IRL

we need to get some hypnospace outlaw type of technology if we want the internet to not become a barren wasteland

Does anything real even happen anymore or is it just ai?

I'm guessing the reason why they came to this conclusion was probably because I would only occasionally open it up, search for new songs and close it. I supposed that makes me a criminal in their eyes

Also, I have no clue how they even detect that. I PURCHASE songs. The problem comes when the artist fucking hates you and doesn't let you give him money. Come to a conclusion to what I do in that situation, but never would I use Spotify of all things for that

I found an email saying that my account was deleted, because they detected I was downloading songs. So basically, Spotify can just take away your playlists and collections of music at any time. Have a good sleep!

The obligatory clippy:

The reason I even had an account was because I sometimes used it to find some recommendations. Well I guess I don't have it anymore

An error message in Spotify saying "Email or username isn't linked to a Spotify account"

Exactly the reason why I don't use streaming

when I have the option, I will always choose watching a movie in 360p with terrible audio on a russian website over using a streaming service that I already have access too

the moral disconnect when sending a :( while smiling

I am stating this right now: if I will be forced to verify my age and I won't be able to find a way to circumvent it, I will just not use the platforms that require it

I am fully content with never being able to use discord, youtube or bsky ever again if it means I won't have to sell my soul

what the hell is happening with the internet, why is there so much censorship all of a sudden

You have no idea how uncanny it is when youtube forces english on polish videos for me and then also replaces the audio track with ai voices

I am terrified that there are people out there who like... check facebook. Like, what are you doing?

I slept, chat we did it again

chat, we are so close

I remember there were a lot of these scams going around when I was little. Sometimes, they would even secure a meeting in the school to sell their crap to kids and parents. And of course people fell for it, because why wouldn't you want your kid to have super powers
