What's a good learning/study music album you would recommend?
  • I think this is a really good answer. Just search for a focus playlist on whatever platform and let it run.

    If I'm picking out music more specific, I find myself thinking about that, and what it's like, and if it's helping, and maybe I should hey this other album or artist.

    Don't let picking the music distract too much from focusing on what you want to do.

  • Monster Hunter Wilds - Release Date Reveal Trailer | PS5 Games
  • I get this. Loved Tri and Freedom Unite, played a decent amount of 4, some of World, and barely started Rise.

    They're always exciting, and I don't dislike any of the games, but it's just a lot to get going, really invest the time, and get the value out of these.

  • What's a handy terminal command you use often?
  • There's a whole bunch of cool modern replacements. Here's a handy list: altbox.dev

    I personally use bat and rg all the time, and find them much more suitable for everyday tasks.

    Edit: And to clarify, I didn't create either list, they're just ones I'd bookmarked at some point.

  • Why some open world video games of the late 2010s and early 2020s have been considered "Breath of the Wild clones"?
  • I feel like "See that mountain? You can go there." was already a cliche when the game came out. [Though I have no citation to prove it.]

    BotW really delivered on it though, with everything being climbable as the rule rather than the exception.

  • Google pulls the plug on uBlock Origin, leaving over 30 million Chrome users susceptible to intrusive ads
  • And I mean, there's still time now. Switching browsers isn't that bad. Export+import some bookmarks and adjust some settings, good to go.

    I think FF has been a good option for a while. But the second best time is now. I can totally get it if people didn't want to switch until they had more of a concrete problem.

  • If time is a currency, what is the product?
  • There's not much distinction between currency and product is there? Most products are just other forms of currency - eg, goods can be sold back for money. Services usually save you time. So when you say product, you just mean what is time exhanged for?

    The most common product of time is probably money, the next most ubiquitous type of currency. But then there are also more abstract things like enjoyment, knowledge, rest.

  • Youtuber creators with under 1000 subs that are your favorite?
  • Found Row's channel from a similar thread years ago: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCo6n98yEksXx0kHT4TA8_hQ

    This guy does runs of the Pokemon Stadium games blindfolded. And I don't fully know why, but it's just super chill and enjoyable to watch these videos casually.

    He's right at 1000 now. Though I don't see any recent uploads, hope he's not done.

  • I'm making Melee but FOSS
  • That's a big undertaking, good luck! I'll definitely be trying it out once it's playable.

    Having a nice list of characters you want is cool, but for now I'd say really pick two (or even 1) and try to get them prototyped and make them feel good to play.

  • Reddit blocking all major search engines, except Google
  • Just like Reddit's changes last year, seems like a clear and reasonaly expected consequence of the 'our text is so valuable because AI' idea.

    The web will probably continue to become more gated and more fragmented as a result of that, plus trying to get more control to force ads.

  • Life is somehow boring now that I got nothing to do/ work on
  • Sounds normal to me.

    I find when I'm busy that I let go of lots of little hobby projects or side-goals that I hadn't had time to make a habit of. And I end up forgetting about them once I do have time. Maybe there are some things like that for you to get into. Or maybe it's just time to set some new aspirations.

    But hey, hanging out playing video games and awaiting vacation sounds pretty nice on its own. 😃

  • Rank-My-Favs - An open-source Android app to help rank your favorite things.
  • Thanks for updating it! Newer version is all around much better.

    Only nitpicky wishlist item I have left is for an undo button on the match screen. (Though it's not really needed since you can reset an item's stats.)

  • Rank-My-Favs - An open-source Android app to help rank your favorite things.
  • That's fun! It's silly, but I do enjoy thinking about what my favorite thing in xyz category is and jotting them down, from time to time.

    Would be cool if this included some pre-populated sample lists out of the box. Love that the import option is readily available though.

    Also, mild inconcevenice - after I view a list, rank some things, maybe repeat a few times, pressing back takes me from list, to rank, etc, when I want it to go back to all lists page. If that makes sense.

  • How can everything be captured in simple data like people's exact voice noise?
  • That's kind of crazy! Like, it's easy for me to understand that those files are only so long and sound has this finite way of being represented. But to then think I could record myself saying anything, then compare bits and see that they already have that is so neat.

    https://x.com/NintendoAmerica/status/1802702745276662114 For context, I'm a Juneteenth baby. But it makes sense that Nintendo wouldn't do a Direct on what's now considered a national holiday. That said, if Nintendo's reading this, I'll gladly accept a new Rhythm Heaven game as my early birthday...

    Got my copy of the Smash doc

    Reward from backing the original project. Good to have the collection complete. Re-watch (and a first watch of Metagame) might be in order.
