I used to use Eclipse for Java because one of my classes required it but I now use Visual Studio for C# involving Unity things and VSCode for Python and Java. It's just so good

throwback i think I got some clips from the recent ttt nights. I'll upload them when I get home

Two of my favorite albums of all time came in a week earlier than expected. Both sound great. Japanese Breakfast - Soft Sounds From Another Planet Ryo Fukui - Scenery Also, the white vinyl is one I picked up from the dollar bin hip hop section. Had no idea what it was going to be but it turns out its a nice trance dance album. It's really fun to listen to and I've been listening to it while studying lol. It's Freeky Speed by Slab.

I recently got into vinyl records. I bought a limited to 500 vinyl only release from one of my favorite artists recently and it got me into it. Ended up buying a decent entry level record player and some decent speakers. So far I have been having a blast going to various record stores and spending hours browsing through records. It is the happiest I've been in a while and I'm glad I got into this. So far these records are what I have: 8Ball & MJG - Get Low Andrew Gold - Andrew Gold Boldy James - Adu Daft Punk - Random Access Memories Humble Pie - Town and Country Japanese Breakfast - Soft Sounds From Another Planet Jimi Hendrix - Smash Hits Kanye West - Late Registration Kikagaku Moyo - House In The Tall Grass Mac Miller - Macadelic Ryo Fukui - Scenery The Chambers Brothers - The Time Has Come Tommy James and the Shondells - Cellophane Symphony Various Dollar Bin Albums I Have Yet To Go Through Next Purchases: BADBADNOTGOOD - IV BADBADNOTGOOD - Talk Memory BADBADNOTGOOD & Ghostface Killah - Sour Soul Beach House - Bloom Brand New - The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me Daft Punk - Discovery Duke Ellington & John Coltrane - Duke Ellington & John Coltrane Frank Ocean - Blond Forth Wanderers - Forth Wanderers Jiro Inagaki & Soul Media - Head Rock Jiro Inagaki & Soul Media - Funky Stuff John Coltrane - Blue Train Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy Mac Miller - Swimming I've been trying to tell myself to only buy my absolute favorite albums for now because I am already a couple hundred dollars deep in buying vinyls. My favorite listens so far are Random Access Memories by Daft Punk and Jimi Hendrix. I'm still waiting on the Japanese Breakfast and Ryo Fukui vinyls to come in. They're both some of my favorites of all time. I was getting ready to buy MBDTF the other night but I read some things about how all the pressings for them aren't that great and it sounds like shit. But I might buy it anyways. Also really want to buy Bloom by Beach House because it is my favorite album but I don't want to spend $90 on it. It periodically gets repressed so I will wait. I might buy Forth Wanderers by Forth Wanderers tonight because it is relatively well priced for a small indie band. They're local and have become one of my favorite bands recently. I'm pissed I missed out on the Blond represses from a couple weeks ago. I'll buy it when the time is right Anyone else into vinyls? What do you guys recommend? I'm into blues, jazz, electronic music, and really anything I guess haha. I would love to buy some more electronic vinyls. Random Access Memories is mixed so amazingly.

Hi. Cleaned up, switched some things around. Put some new shelves in and got a record player and some nice speakers. Feels nice.

It's my favorite time of the year. I should get paid for all the people I have referred to Last.fm. https://www.last.fm/user/johnsmileyface/listening-report/year Screenshots for the lazy: Top 20 Artists: Top 20 Albums: Top 20 Songs: Some additional stats: I had a rough year compared to last year. I listened to a lot of depressing music at the beginning of the year until I couldn't take it anymore and decided to change for the better. Listened to a wide variety of music this year. I ventured into a lot of jazz and house music and it has made me very happy. I don't have much to say. I want to make a separate thread this week regarding favorite artists, albums, and songs that people have had this year. Here's a simpler one using Music Rewind:

Upgrade your RAM and GPU. You're gonna definitely notice the difference from DDR3 to DDR4. Not sure what you're looking for but 30 series cards are readily available. I recommend the 3060ti.
