What? Why?

Yeh Graphene is the plan long term but I have to stick with stock for the time being.

It’s just like that. Actually it’s an interesting point about wanting to try it again and get it right. I think that’s a layer that probably explains some of the feeling like I miss something that actually wasn’t great to experience.

It sounds like it but, in general I prefer to have 1 maybe 2 home screen pages of stuff I know I’ll use all the time right away and anything else I’d rather just search.

I suppose if you have only enough apps to fill maybe a single home screen page then by that standard I’d have a lot as between my less frequently used apps and all of Google’s pre-installed ones that’s probably a few pages, but generally I try to be sparing with them.

That does it. Thanks mate.

Planning to switch to Graphene OS for several reasons, but I have a reason why it will be better for me not to do that until a bit later so until then I’m just trying to be comfortable with stock.

I opened up my post again the next day and immediately thought of that. Don’t know why I didn’t when I wrote the title haha

This puts it well.

The experience of nostalgia I understand is bittersweet and often melancholy. I guess what I’m finding strange is that normally one experiences nostalgia for something they’d actually like to be able to return to, and that usually means something that they actually liked, a previous happiness. Weirdly I seem to be pining for a particular way I felt that actually, sucked at the time. It’s weird. I know what you mean about it being best not to dwell but it’s such a powerful draw, it’s like I’m swimming around the edges of a vortex.

I’m pretty sure I first came across this before 2022

This pic reminds me of when every punk rock music video had to use this fisheye lens. I liked that aesthetic, don’t know if it’s just the nostalgia or a genuine appreciation of the form but it always exuded cool.

Aww I was just about gush about how awesome they’ve been all these years. Guess I haven’t really kept up to date. I mean it doesn’t sound like it’s gone totally to shit, but just clearly embarking on a path straight in to the shit

Also, if you really wanted the supposed effect, you could always just take a big gulp of air and a then drink some water, the air is still free so far.

Coming in to this I really wondered how anybody could sincerely find anything on Sesame Street scary but watching this, I don’t think it would have scared me but I get it. It’s the music that really does it, unsettling and ominous and with the lack of context you described, I get it.

I really liked those things. They were funny.

I believe while I was figuring this out I discovered one of rogue amoebas apps that I could use in conjunction with sound flower and I was nearly certain I had it, it was something to do with how Skype worked that sabotaged me, I couldn’t believe how stubbornly persistent Skype was despite how hard I tried to workaround it. I believe I was trying to make a single virtual sound device that combined my mic output with the system Audio so I could choose that as my microphone in Skype but SOMEHOW it was always able to fuck me over don’t remember how, only that I was extremely angry.

I tried to set this up on a mac using soundflower so I could share my screen with an edit project with the director during lockdown and still chat to them at the same time. Didn’t work for some frustrating reason relating to Skype.

What’s the original clip from?

Pretty. Looks dangerous AF

Wow I was going to comment on how their legs look they have boners but uh… never mind I guess.
