Ooh another opportunity to yell from the rooftops how great “Nobody Loves You More” by Kim Deal is! :) Honestly a fully fantastic album that I love. :)

“Romance” by Fontaines DC was another brilliant one!

ooh and the new Cure album!

Always Sometimes Monsters gets my vote! It was a good story and I felt like it was a great use of a weekend. Might not be everyone’s cup of tea (text-based, no combat), but I loved it!

Edam! It’s happy cheese! :)

Wensleydale cranberry if not!

Also the keyboard! I have never used one I liked more until thumbkey came along :) The windows keyboard was so good for swipe typing, it makes me wonder how they now own swift key and it isn’t as good!

When I had to go to Android (phone battery on the Lumia 950xl started swelling), I used things to replicate Windows Phone as it was so fun to use. :)

Awesome! I’m really glad! :) there’s nothing like rocking an album on the day it comes out! I’m dropping lead weighted hints that I need it for christmas, that and being broke are the sole reasons it’s not on order already 😂

That’s so interesting! As a kid I remember not liking much music until I found some individual songs that I loved, then I couldn’t get enough and albums were my thing!

I’m a bit of both on albums - some I have on end to end no matter what (R.E.M especially), but then there’s some bands I’m like you and wander off halfway through! :)

Trying to think of bands that genre-hop and might be fun for you end-to-end on one disc

Great thread idea, I’m going to listen to a batch of these as they sound excellent! :)

For me I’m utterly loving the new Kim Deal* album “Nobody Loves You More” - it came out today, and oh yes it’s good!

It’s unexpected with style, almost 60s with brass and strings at times, then there’s other songs that sound modern… and beyond making my ears happy, it’s great songwriting :)

Emesene and pidgin were great! :)

I didn’t realise U2 once did make great music! Can recommend 1001 albums generator - it’s righting a few musical wrongs in my brain :)

Coast by Kim Deal :)

Thinking about it, I would not put it past me to have set it and forgotten 😂 it’s been a while since I played about with the settings!

You convinced me, I’m totally adding this today! :)

I also would throw in sponsorblock to that too - it skips all the “but first, Raid Shadow Legends…” “don’t forget to like share and subscribe” nonsense :)

edit: thank you, I just poked into YouTube Revanced, and found DeArrow was on! This explains why I didn’t like youtube’s content when on my PC, so I’ll 100% be adding this to Firefox! :)

I love them because of a sesame allergy! Worry free brioche for the me! :)

I didn’t realise I had it unticked, and feel silly for thinking Lemmy didn’t support them! Totally keeping it unticked, but thought it was funny :)

Now that just sounds blissful! I legit plan to try this

It was in fact a protest because dinner would take an hour and a yorkshire pudding fell out its bag while I was rummaging in the freezer! I needed sustenance and gravity obliged, it would have been rude to deny my destiny. 😊

I am sure that my sacrifices and heroism in a trying time are just what any other normal, sane person would have done… I should think probably I guess

Frozen yorkshire puddings with raisins inside. A bit of sweet, a bit of cronch.

I am aware of what I have said, and stand by my poor life choices that led to this brilliant discovery.

Oh fantastic! :) Thank you, next playthrough I will get things going on Linux in that case, as that’s new to me! :) Like a fool I tried nexus mods vortex in Wine initially because I didn’t know better!

I can second this! For me it meant that I could finish my game of modded fallout new vegas, and connect to my work’s microsoft vpn nonsense (IT support didn’t fancy trying it on Mint but that’s another story!)

I now have a personal OS that I like, and a windows partition for those few things that I can’t be bothered to troubleshoot.

So far the list is just those things and the Unity Engine as Visual Studio debugs better than code in my experience. :)

Having the option to flick back is great :) In the XP days, I loved the WUBI(?) tool that let you install ubuntu dual boot as an exe, but I think that’s not a thing these days., :)

Heck yes! Earthbound! One of those games I felt was made perfectly to my taste :) funny, quirky, slightly uncomfortable… All great. :)
