Underwaterbob,

Didn’t they go into the past and bring her to a different timeline in a later episode of the show or something? Or was that just her alter-ego from another dimension?

Underwaterbob,

Right before the show really took off, too. Oopsy!

Underwaterbob,

Yeah. They certainly tend towards arty bunk. I guess I get it: it has to be hard to come up with ways to describe music that haven’t been used a billion times before, but they lean so hard into trying to be unique, it all comes out meaningless.

Underwaterbob,

It requires a lot of filtering, but I find Pitchfork.com reliably has something decent in their “best new …” pages. Just don’t actually read the reviews.

Underwaterbob,

I’ve been meaning to start it for years now, but I’m actually kind of intimidated by it at this point.

Underwaterbob,

Overtones. Bowed string instruments have a lot of harmonics. I can’t imagine it sounds very good, but I bet it’s interesting.

Underwaterbob,

Near where I grew up there are these caves on a cliff side on the ocean. At the right time of day, the tide is such that the water rushes in and creates these amazing subsonic booms. You can’t hear them, but if you go down one of the walkways into the side of a cave, you can feel it. It’s crazy. Probably a similar thing.

How on Earth does one spend 557 hours on Final Fantasy VI? I’ve finished it at least a half-dozen times over the years since it came out, and I doubt I’ve spent that much time with it. And at least one of those sessions I got everyone to max level and taught them every spell in the game. I suppose I have not taught Gau all the possible Rages, but doing that sounds insufferable.

Edit: Are replies broken? This was a reply to a comment, but it showed up as a separate comment.

Underwaterbob,

We filter our tap water here in Korea. Most people do, but as I understand, it’s safe to drink it just straight from the tap. It’s just better through a machine that gets rid of any lingering chlorine and heats it or chills it for you.

Underwaterbob,

While sometimes mildly amusing, I don't miss the strings of puns that dominated ~50% of the "discussions" I clicked.

What is something good happening in your city/town/local area?

My city redesign our downtown roads to have a whole bunch of horrible one ways in the 50s, and we are FINALLY changing back to how it was while making improvements like bike lanes. The first attempt at bike lanes with the current layout was horrible, basically death traps everywhere... Hoping for something better this time, lol....

Underwaterbob,

I live on Jeju-Do: a South Korean island with a population of ~700'000. Half of the registered electric cars in all of Korea are on the island. Anecdotally, just driving down the road to work, every third car I see is electric. We've got electric buses, scooters, and bikes all over the place too. If only we could stop the pollution blowing over from China (not that Korea is innocent of polluting their own air.)
