Black metal - - - > witch house

I got burnt out on the new black metal I was hearing, it was all too dissonant and samey to me. Still enjoy the older stuff I grew up with, though.

Witch house has a similar raw energy and dark/sad/dreamy mood that I like in my music.

It’s hard to pick just one. Electric Wizard - Funeralopolis is absolutely a contender. Here are a few more that stand out for me:

Primitive Man - Victim (NSFW)

Katharsis - Wytchdance (the riff starting at 3:57, relentless and hypnotic. This band always made me think of Destruction but much darker)

Necrophagia - Dead Skin Slave (a little cheesy but the rhythm changes in the second half go hard)

Spawn of Possession - A Presence Inexplicable (the slowdown in the breakdown then gradual tempo increase, chef’s kiss)

Heaviest live show I’ve ever witnessed

Chrono Break

Like others have said, $100 is a lot. That’s the kind of gift one might expect from a direct family member. $50 would be plenty.

Flowers and chocolate on top of that will come off as trying too hard and showing romantic interest. Spare yourself the accusations and tension it will cause between you and your friend. It’s a very easy target that people this age will make fun of you for, even if you just intended to be polite.

Morbid Angel - Altars of Madness

Carcass - Necroticism

Darkthrone - A Blaze in the Northern Sky

Exodus - Bonded by Blood

Dark Angel - Darkness Descends

Atheist - Unquestionable Presence

Beherit - Drawing Down the Moon

Gorguts - The Erosion of Sanity

Iron Reagan - Crossover Ministry

Ripping Corpse - Dreaming with the Dead

Necrophagia - Season of the Dead

Vektor - Black Future

Aura Noir - The Merciless

At the Gates - The Red in the Sky is Ours

Kreator - Pleasure to Kill

Sadus - A Vision of Misery

Testament - The Legacy

Destruction - Infernal Overkill

Never said they were lol

At home I want wifi on, and away I want it off. This saves battery so it’s not constantly looking for wifi networks.

I could achieve similar with location service turned on all the time, but that drains battery even more.

Since cellular data is always connected to some cell tower nearby, and Tasker is able to identify the cell tower names, I used the ones near my home as flags to indicate “I’m close to home, therefore turn on WiFi because I’ll be home soon”. And turn it off when I leave my neighborhood.

I used it to identify the cell towers near my home and turn wifi off when I was out of their range and back on when I was in range. It seemed to help save battery by not constantly looking for wifi networks and I didn’t have to remember to turn it off and on manually.

“If the shoe fits, wear it”? Maybe.

Ah yes, 5 layers of management and yet somehow your job is what needs inspection.

I’ve had two Nalgene bottles for about 10 years, maybe more, and neither show any signs of quitting. They’re big, virtually indestructible, and water filtration pumps fit on properly (for camping).

The circle of life

With all due respect, hell no

LEON!

This is th wa.

Long time last.fm user. It helps me remember “that one song” when my brain can’t.

It’s 90% grinding and 10% actual gameplay

Update: I cracked a third egg from the carton today. It was another double yolk.

The LANDSAT program. Not exactly new since it’s been going for about 50 years, but it’s still fascinating and maybe more relevant than ever with concerns about climate change.

We can get different types of data about a landscape from the different parts of the light spectrum. For example, telling coniferous and deciduous trees apart based on how they reflect light. Imagine echolocation on steroids, using light.
