slurp, in FOSS alternative to... Sending Spotify links?

I’m curious about this too, but more for for sharing long, self-made playlists. A single song is not too bad to send or find on YouTube but a playlist is difficult

roeeeeeeeee, (edited ) in FOSS alternative to... Sending Spotify links?

Some alternative clients of Apple Music I use use the API of this to copy “universal” song/album links. It also has functions as a music search engine so maybe it can be useful to you. It’s not FOSS and its privacy policy could be better though. odesli.co

JetpackJackson,

That looks interesting!

Other people kinda already said it, but try to find a martial art which is more focused on self-defense and that should reduce the risk of training injury.

I played American football for 4 years, then got a computer science degree and am now a professional software engineer. I definitely took some blows to the head but thankfully never any concussions. You can do it.

Boris_NotTooBadinoff, in How to combine sports and study?

Instead of kickboxing you could try splitting your time between running, and strength training. Cardio will help with the sedentary nature of university course work, and strength training (weight lifting) will provide greater muscle control and definition. As long as you don’t over do either, you should be able to defend yourself, and your loved ones, while remaining fit and healthy. These are also good habits to develop so that you can continue after your time at your university is complete…just my .02

Kit, in What MMOs are you all playing?

HorizonXI. It’s a classic Final Fantasy XI server.

I grew up playing XI and wanted to get back into it, but the retail server is a solo experience these days. Horizon has been incredible to relive my childhood on Horizon, and the community is amazing. It’s certainly not for everyone but I’m so glad to have it in my life.

dgbbad,

I was lucky in that the ffxi US beta was my first dive into an MMO. And I think it’s one of the best games ever, but the harsh reality is that it’s hard and tedious, especially for folks who only have experience with super hand holdy MMOs like they mostly are today. If you can get into it, it can be like crack, but I really feel like most people won’t have the patience for it these days.

This isn’t me saying don’t try it. Try it for sure. Just be ready for a huge time sink. It doesn’t help you at all.

Kit,

I absolutely agree. XI is hard and a huge time sync. I don’t think most gamers would enjoy it at all, and most of my enjoyment comes from nostalgia and the sense of community.

OhFudgeBars, in Why don't public restroom stalls have OPEN/OCCUPIED indicators like porta potties do?

How hard is it to press on the stall door and if it doesn’t open, just move on to the next?

LegionEris, in Anyone on here know where all the conspiracy people hang out?

Not of the aliens gave Martha Washington the technology to become impregnated by the Bigfoot variety, but there are always plenty of conspiracies on Hexbear. It’s wild how deep into history revision and denial some people will go to justify believing fairly reasonable things.

zerbey, in Americans - I Need Help Choosing A Bourbon

It’s a cheap option and often overlooked, but my go to has been Jim Beam Devil’s Cut for years now.

ParsnipWitch, in What MMOs are you all playing?

Currently I try to decide between New World and Guild Wars 2. Can’t play both but not sure which to pick …

PonyOfWar,

If you’re mainly interested in PVP or resource gathering, New World.

If you want better PVE, more interesting storylines and better more varied world design, Guild Wars 2.

Personally, I quit New World as a mainly PVE player after playing for around 30 hours. It was just too mind-numbing killing the same 5 mob types over and over even after getting to a new area. Even reading all the quest texts, I never got very interested in the world or (barely existant) storyline.

New World was such a huge letdown for me. Low level mobs respawning so fast you can’t even clear an area long enough to loot, empty world outside of endgame areas. etc.

shinigamiookamiryuu, in What MMOs are you all playing?

All of them. If it exists I’m on there.

Donjuanme, in whats a song you heard for the first time recently that gave you a powerful reaction?

Poor man’s poison’ feed the machine? Excellent track.

ericbomb,

Yeah never heard them before but my gf had a feeling I would like them!

I have no idea if it’s what the singers had in mind but I feel so like pro union listening to it. So many corporations have proven a million times that the only reason they don’t kill more people is because of potential negative profits.

Donjuanme,

I’ve given up trying to crack where the identity of the band is, I’m pretty sure we’d be inline, but some of the tracks make us pause the music and discuss if we’re being duped by killer licks.

An excellent band with an excellent sound. I hope they make more albums!

WoW was my introduction to MMOs, and ive never really replaced it, despite trying out ff and eso. That voids still unfilled, but I have picked up Warframe, which i suppose might technically count, but its not quite the same - third person mission based sci fantasy shooter doesnt quite scratch the same itch, but it is an mmo.

Great quests, i really enjoy them when they come in.

Labyrinthine progression system, im currently building a new class so that i can generate an Impact weapon and then i’ll throw the class into the dumpster, absorb its power blue-mage style, slap it on a different class, and use an upgrade from another part of the game to turn that impact weapon into an energy generator, slap the ability on another class i like, and use the impact energy generator fueled ability to set up a whip attack that needs enemies affected by the blue maged impact energy weapon fueled ability to farm another - ok ill stop, but its this kind of game.

The space hats are good and pretty to look at. most important part imo.

    I definitely prefer their Top Gear content but I love seeing the Trio get a shout out in a thread like this

    ShitOnABrick, (edited ) in Lighthearted, upbeat shows for adults?
    @ShitOnABrick@lemmy.world avatar

    Sorting from 1 being the worse and 6 being the best in my opinion these are the shows that I found entertaining and recommend you giving a watch

    • 1 better call saul drama
    • 2 breaking bad drama
    • 3 still game comedy
    • 4 it’s always sunny comedy
    • 5 it crowd comedy
    • 6 father ted comedy

    You may find it difficult to understand what the characters are saying in still game due to the cast being entirely Scottish I won’t spoil it for you just give it a watch

    Moneo,

    Chat gpt???

    No? I’m not ai

    deadsenator,

    Still Game was wonderful! Just get the subs for it. I think it ran nine seasons, but each season is fresh and quite funny. In the end it’ll give you tears because your going to miss them badly.

    Still Game is worth your time. Very funny and wholesome show.

    ShitOnABrick, (edited )
    @ShitOnABrick@lemmy.world avatar

    Agreed I heavily enjoyed still game although I didn’t like the later seasons as much I felt like they were introducing more characters cuz they were running out of things to write about

    BURN, in Circumcised men, how do you feel about your parents having mutilated your penis without your consent?

    Not a problem

    Never wished I was uncut, don’t really mind either way. I’m not having kids so I won’t have to make the decision, but I’d likely have them cut too.
