Thanks bud. it's not our first rodeo, we're used to the smell of bullshit.
Still, you know, when it actually gets on you it stains things.

I hear you, but the writer isn't concerned with "can": If you replaced "can have the answer to any question in seconds from my a tiny device in my pocket" with "must" then you can see their dissatisfaction.

if I went to a restaurant and was told that I had to install and use their app to order their food, I would fucking leave. If it was the only restaurant left in town then I'd have much less choice in the matter. The insidious nature of technology is that it changes "can" with "must".

AIs can generate false statements. It doesn't require a set of beliefs, it merely requires a set of input.

Moderators at Facebook have been arguing these points for a while now, many of which have gotten mental issues though their work and don’t get any medical support

How in the actual hell can Facebook not provide medical support to these people, after putting them through actual hell? That is actively evil of them.

Well, shit. Good for them! This is a long way from [insert reference to That Reddit Thread here].

maybe the trailer needed some Taiko drums?
or an ominously orchestral version of a beloved 1980's/1990's pop song?

[–] mPony 3 points 1 week ago

yeah I think I'll need that recipe at some point. Just to know.

most phones now don’t support memory expansion

Well of course not. If phones supported memory expansion you would just buy more memory, instead of buying an entirely new phone Don't even get me started on how bloated these apps have become. I used Paperclip word processor on a Commodore-64; you can not convince me that your app needs to be 50+ Megs in size.

Hear hear. Chantal's got more intestinal fortitude than most of us could ever claim to have.

yes, the studio recording of IWYTWM came out a year earlier.
On Live At Budokan, side 2 starts with IWYTWM, and then you immediately hear "This next one..." as they introduce their brand new song Surrender.

This was me seeing The Watchmen for the first time in 1990. Holy shit, what an amazing band.

 

Here's our version of Metric's "Help, I'm Alive", featuring our good friend Matt on backup vocals. We love Matt's voice: the song would not be the same without it.
Feel free to let us know what you think, if you wish. No pressure. We know you have things on your mind.

 

The first song from our third album. New music drops every few weeks until August!
Yes, listening makes your life better, but sharing makes other people's lives better.

Love, 3LEN.

 

I made this :) This band is still the most fun music project I've ever been involved in. Please have a listen, on the platform of your choice.

Hey there Lemmy.world ! I'm in a band called The Three Leonards. We cover pop songs in a jazzy style that might remind you of artists like Leonard Cohen, Nick Cave, or Tom Waits. We have two full albums of songs, streaming everywhere:

https://songwhip.com/thethreeleonards/the-three-leonards https://songwhip.com/thethreeleonards/songs-from-three-rooms

and a YT channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVvcGe1tlxijGPV-kEJ_xpg

 

Hey folks! We are The Three Leonards, from Canada. We perform our own versions of pop songs, with a sorta jazzy/dark/moody twist to them. You know this one: Umbrella (originally by Rihanna.)

Umbrella turned out quite cool, I have to say. Some of our other songs sound sorta fun, and we all need a bit of fun in our lives, right? If you're in the mood for some different music, you might not even know it. So give this one a go.

Much love from Canada, where it is friggin' cold today.

 

Hello Lemmy.world! I'm a member of The Three Leonards. We do covers of pop songs in a playful jazzy style which might remind you of artists like Leonard Cohen, or Nick Cave, or Tom Waits. We might even remind you of that one time you tried mushrooms with those degens from upcountry. We're not here to judge: life is just like that sometimes. You do you. And while you do you, whether you're on mushrooms or not, you should listen to our music. Because it's fun. And because you've probably never asked yourself: "What would it sound like if Leonard Cohen did a cover of Toxic by Britney Spears?" And now you don't have to ask yourself. It's right there.

Feel the groove. Feel the love. Feel The Len.

 

We finally released our second album! featuring Bette Davis Eyes, Your Woman, Slave To Love, and many more. We even do a cover of Toxic. Yes, Toxic by Britney Spears. I know, right?

 

Our cover of the brilliant Hooverphonic song. We aimed for some serious Bond vibes on this one.

 

From an ongoing project where we reimagine pop songs in the style of characters (very) loosely based on Leonard Cohen.

yes we still realize how crazy this all is , but take a listen :)

 

Morning everyone. Here's the most recent release from our ongoing music project The Three Leonards. We re-imagine pop songs in a LeonardCohen-esque style.

Have a listen and tell me what you think. We know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but some people really like tea. Remember your first cup of tea? I sure do.

We also released an entire album last year, which I can link in the comments here because this place doesn't have a gigantic stick up it's arse. https://open.spotify.com/album/5RwGC1qOeAQvIENh9X353F

Have an awesome day, Internet. You deserve one. Maybe our music can be a part of it.
