She wears short shirts I wear sneakers
I love 
guys
But I am not a
gal
What about a 
guy?
He can seek my soul any day uwu
I was a what.cd…. Thing. RIP.
haven't seen soulseek mentioned in a long while^^ it still rocks!
Never used it! What’s it like?
Feels kinda mid-2000s. The data hoarders on it have even the most obscure music you can think of. Would recommend!
Top car will start to loudly beep and light up the dashboard like a christmas tree with SERVICE NOW!!! warnings whenever the windshield wiper fluid is low, seat belt is not fastend or a brake light is out. Has controls for radio and clima hidden 3 levels deep behind a touch screen interface. Comes with an app that will somehow stop working after 5 years when the car is no longer sold, or after you upgrade your phone. Has a subscription that allows you to go faster and use the heated seats you already paid for when you bought it.
Bottom car will run as long it has fuel, dosnt judge you like a fuckin audi would and lists engine oil as "optional" in the manual.

This dude... He looks lame. The woman looks great, though.
Showing this to my PO
Does anyone know what kind of shades she’s wearing? I like it, it’s very steampunk.
*I feel I also have to say that that's Kim Yeji who won gold and set a record in the 25m Pistol finals a couple months ago and her team mate, Oh Ye-jin, more recently won gold in 10m Air Pistol and also set a record.
Damn, TIL those cool steampunk looking glasses I see on character designs a lot have a functional purpose. You can tell I’m very knowledgeable about sports 👍
Whaaaat that's a thing? I shoot pretty often, and it can be pretty hard to adjust your eyes between targets. I might grab these.
She looks cool AF.
This was inadaquetly described. The woman looks way fuckin cooler than that dude.
Ita not about cool, I think the intent was more 'Spotify Premium to get on the go access to all of my music' being akin to the additional equipment used by the shooter on the left, versus the 'youtube to mp3 converter because free' being bereft of all bells and whistles and equipment on the right.
Also..you could have gotten the joke and I'm overexpla8ning, one of the two.
They both have shitty audio quality, but Spotify is less shitty than YouTube's horrible data compression.
YouTube uses Opus 160kbps which is decent enough. YouTube also allows uploading videos with lossless audio.
So it's more about what happens with the audio before it gets to YouTube. Someone uploads a video clip with 128kbps AAC, YouTube re-encodes it to Opus160, someone downloads it as 160kbps MP3, makes a lyrics video and whatever tool they used makes it into 96kbps Vorbis, it gets put on YouTube, Opus160 again, you download it as whatever bitrate MP3 again and it sounds like shit.
Just an example, there may be way more lossy re-encode generations going on.
It's more about the generations rather than YouTube.
I dunno', I hear a distinct difference between any YouTube video and the CD, even ones posted by the artists or labels directly.
Though I do not pay for YouTube premium and never will, so maybe it's better if you pay the beast.
Either way, fuck the beast. ... and not in a good way.
i believe the youtube to mp3 thing isabout downloading it using yt-dlp or something, not yt premium downloads

This is horseshit, Opus 130k stereo is perceptually lossless according to many public listening tests. All responsibility for poor quality rests on the uploader and sometimes on idiotic downloaders that still dare to shit out MP3 in the year 2024.

I'm like an anti-audiophile in how little I usually care. I don't use high quality equipment most of the time anyhow, so it doesn't bother me at this point.
I tend to buy cheapest earbuds possible since I tend to destroy them fast. Bought some better ones recently, since I had a gift card from a contest and what do you know! My phone's headphone jack died... =/
There are two Japanese bands that I can only listen to on Youtube, so I have to listen to them offline at 129kbs. ;_;

Lest we forget
Do you think I own a laptop capable of reading a CD like some sort of caveman?
I'm out here advocating for physical media in 2024, so it's safe to assume that my tech has not advanced much beyond smashing rocks together and yelling at the moon.
I don't think I've ever witnessed a meme this fresh
And the turkish athelete won a silver mdeal in the shooting competition imagine the power if he had the same gear as the other atheletes
It would definitely be over 9000!
Im currently a spoofy premium gal, but I'm moving to downloading my music. It's just gonna take a lot of time. And a lot of money because I do want to support the artists I love
