Logic. Final cut. Those are the two best reasons for MacOS. Everything else is FINE and I'll generally agree, but windows is dogshit when it comes to editing media especially when there's any kind of I/O device attached.

I have steam on my Mac mini and its generally fine. Sure it doesn't play everything, but it can run plenty of games just fine. But I also own a steam deck and windows 10 PC so I'm a bad example.

I have a 16 GB Mac mini and logic is perfect. Pro tools was garbage on my windows PC.

Final cut is infinitely better than any windows video editing software.

Apple hardware is pretty good.

I fought the good fight for years, but modern windows and android hardware is shit in comparison.

Queue the Linux crowd. Listen I like Linux, but every day usability with minimal tinkering isn't there. Apple stuff just works, and there's merit to that now.

I disagree. Ultimately, republicans want 3 things: money, power, and exclusivity. If they can somehow make tons of money off marijuana when no one else can, they would be all for it. Basically they perpetually want Rules for Thee Not for Me.

So maybe they would revert it, but if they could find a way to make it theirs only, they would.

They should’ve never messed with the original avatars. Xbox finally had their own aesthetic in a way that Nintendo always seems to have. Then they went and changed everything.

Only big corporations who either kiss the ring or generate a ton of money and lobby like he’ll will be exempt.

The goal of republicans is to watch out for their clan and get their beak wet doing it. If some republican lawmaker or trump can make money off this they will.

Summer homes in Europe go up in value. A new market for winter apparel opens too. Just think to the potential market growth. This is going to make a few shrewd entrepreneurs very wealthy. The planet will suffer, but man think of the money.

As a longtime fan (since Blackwater Park came out) I am pretty happy with the new common ground Mikel found to please both OldPeth and NuPeth fans alike.

I agree that the last 4 albums were mostly forgettable, aside from a few songs a riffs.

My biggest gripe is how much stuff is packed into each song. I liked when Opeth songs were long cause they really let an idea sit and stay with you. It wasn’t overly repetitive, they always made the long sections (aside from a few choice selections) interesting even they repeated a riff for 2-3 minutes.

I will say that this album has some AWESOME grooves. All the more reason I wish they lasted longer. I feel like songs would be more memorable and distinct if they did.

Overall I’m really happy with the new compromise of sound. I know they don’t want to do the same thing over and over, and this is a happy medium that is a great step forward.

Bodom is still kinda underrated. Think about when they were creating this music and what was popular then. They were right before the melodeath surge of the early 2000’s. Alexi Laiho had his finger on the pulse.

Seeing all the cats made me realize that we need to all participate to make the community what we want it to be. It’s clear to me there are a lot of lurkers based on the influx of cat pictures. The more we start posting in ANY instance the more visibility there will be for active users.

All the more reason to make more posts in other instances to flood the feeds with more diversity.

The easiest way to create an internet community is to start with cats.
