it was different mega corps running every facet of your life.

It is a completely different ball game in 2024 and you’d have to be blind to not see it. The power and influence companies have in 2024 dwarfs what any company had in the '70s. Especially with the adevnt of the Internet. So I’m sorry there’s just no comparison here. It may have been tough for a lot of people, but like you said, they had a chance to rebuild. People barely even have a chance to get started these days.

The cost of living is still outrageous compared to then even when you adjust for inflation. There also weren’t the same mega corps running every facet of your life while providing the cheapest crap that will never last

Any new extensions for Android worth checking out? The ones before that were available mostly fit my needs.

It really isnt bad? Like easier navigation on a phone is always a welcome change.

I did but talk to text got me fucked up lol.

Nothing probably compares to the sheer plastic waste of a large commercial kitchen. Everything comes in plastic from Cisco. And you wrap everything in plastic and just toss it over and over again.

Gila monster got it.

Oh shit.

Aw sorry you couldn’t go last time. They are awesome to see in concert. This will be my fifth time seeing them. I’ve seen them in Utah. Seen them at the Red rocks and seen them in Atlanta twice so far. Always an amazing show and I basically almost always heard songs. I’ve never heard live before lol.

On my list this weekend is The silver cord, hollow front, vrsty and end.

I’m most excited to listen to the extended tracks on the silver cord.

It’s a weird one for sure. It’s gonna take a few listens for me.

I mean they definitely have bad songs. But legendary careers

“@lemmy.WORLD” deleted for not being about US politics lol

I know a lot of people have issues with Elon musk. But starlink really has been an incredible game changer for people in rural areas or places where it’s not practical to get cell or internet service. My parents live on the side of a mountain in Colorado where there’s no cell service and it would have been thousands of dollars to run an internet line. Starlink has completely changed the game for their connection to the outside world and with us. I’m sure this will be even better for them.

A good short little interview with gizz. Thanks for the article

Most songs played live have some sort of aspect that was recorded and played back in order to avoid issues. Sometimes it’s just a backing track . Or weird synth track that they can’t reproduce Live easily. It’s not like they’re playing a whole ass song. Pre-recorded. But they use some pre-recorded bits to assist in everything else. They play live in order to make the song right. And I’m making gizzard at some point. Has played almost everything from their catalog. I know butterfly 3000 is short of love plays but they’ve played more than just Shanghai.

Don’t worry bout it bud. Some ppl know what they wanna do and some ppl gotta find it. You’ll find it eventually.

? They can just play a recording of what they need live and riff everything else that they can live. Just like they do for a ton of songs. If there’s one thing I know about giz nothing is off the table for seeing it live.

Jokes on them and my credit be damned i ain’t paying it.

I mean literally if she had retired during Obama administration we likely wouldn’t be in the same mess. Can directly blame her for the loss of roe vs Wade.
