  1. bringing back the hip hop beats. needs moar bass!!!
  2. i'm hearing all kinds of older ae in these tracks, tbh. but it's mostly new to my ears. building on everything they've done so far.
  3. I get request could not be satisfied i get an "access forbidden" when just trying a "save as..." on the mp3 location
  4. rather long time for a boner... that's going to create some cramps i'm afraid!
  5. anyone got this to work? curl -H "Referer: https://www.nts.live/projects/autechre-nts-residency/" -H "Range: bytes=0-" https://media.ntslive.co.uk/streams/autechre-nts-sessions/Autechre-128-nts-1anbsnf2.mp3 --output session1.mp3 (copy paste from chat)
  6. I'm going with "versions of tracks from new album" hypothesis. kinda like what they did with quadrange. album tracks probably going to be shorter edited versions. unless they're going for an elseq kind of release again. in that case, the album/tracks can be as long as they like. (which kinda make more sense for ae, i believe. the classic album format has too many restrictions)
  7. it's not a mix. just individual tracks. tracks from new album? versions of tracks from new album? kinda diggin the current minimalist stabs with the pads in the background. :)
  8. r2d2 and his family talking over dinner while having digital white noise farts stabbing through it from time to time
  9. well, something might have gotten mastered! and it's not rob's grey hair, I hope!
  10. you want ae to play aphex!? you is daft! play f-ing new ae boys
  11. they lost sense of time innit? at least i think that's what spi's implying... color me stupid. i don't think that'd be an argument to not go back. on contrary. they lost sense of time. and they were aware of it. so why venture forward? doesn't make sense to me. and it doesn't make sense as an argument to not go back. again, color me stupid. if you can explain, i'm all ears. because it's a dep movie about self destruction and they wer all sad and depressed so they all wanted to die horrifying deaths because all people self destruct and they touch the alien to make it self destruct because deep movie motivation subtelty that makes some sense. thx!

  13. That was def a point where I thought: grab your data/samples and get back out ASAP! Don't see any reason not to, apart from "but the movie". If going back wasn't an option - after having been a week there without any recollection - why should continuing going forward be an option? It's not like they forgot about where to go.
  14. Nope. I liked it as well (annihilation). More than large parts of TPs 3rd season. Going to check out the bookS (!!) as well. Wasn't there supposed to be a fourth part coming or something? Only grapes with the story was that I had a number of times where I thought "just return and come back later better prepared!". Mostly tells me the story was engaging enough that some gaps in logic could be overcome. Have my hopes the books will be better though.
  15. For now I'd recommend: https://www.youtube.com/user/schooloflifechannel :)
  16. Thanks. I don't want to crush your hopes, but I personally don't believe in tools helping you to check your mental hygiene. Would it be some checklist to fill in? Perhaps some biochemical measurements? A scan of how your brain responds to stimuli? I don't believe mental hygiene can be measured directly. At least not in the general grey area where there isn't a neurophysiological deficit which could be physically traced. Mental hygiene belongs in the "cogito ergo sum" department. It's highly personal and only available to yourself. So the only way to check your mental hygiene, is to learn yourself how to check it. The only available tool is your own brain. This might change in a future where you can upload your brain to some kind of internet. But that's really science fiction at this point in time, I believe. And perhaps even fiction without science, because it implies consciousness can be reduced to some kind of algorithm, or model. (putting aside the "emergent property" argument for a bit)
  17. I'm actually happy there's also a British commission looking at this. Not sure I'd trust the inquisitive nature of US commissions seeing the politisation of this discussion in the US. I'd argue the US political system at this point in time also depends on the investigation in the UK. In terms of finding a political solution to what happened in either the Trump election or Brexit. It doesn't look like the GOP is actively searching for solutions. But that might be my perception.
  18. @Godwin: Fair. If you mean with "changing your ways and adapt" is also about mental hygiene and not just about the behavioural aspect of it (actions), I'd largely agree. I'd like to stress though that mental hygiene is not necessarily about having a certain perception, and put a sharp distinction between perceptions and inner dialogue. These are simply different pieces of the puzzle. Getting out of a depression also requires training the mental muscles to regain a sense of mental sanity (=getting a grip on your inner dialogue). And talking to a mental worker can be part of that training regimen. The question is how you gain a long term impact from either talking or verbalising. I assume a depression is a symptom of a structural problem. Exercising, talking, writing or even taking medicines or drugs all present some kind of temporal relief. And with luck, with time passing you can grow out of your depression. Can happen. The thing with writing/talking (verbalising) in general though, is that changing your inner dialogue (or your inner logic) has a higher chance of a lasting impact. In a way your internal dialogue is a representation of your internal operating system. And insight in your internal operating system enables you to update it. For instance, you can overcome issues with your body image simply by exercising your way out of it. Or changing your ways or lifestyle, if you will. But what if you stop exercising? Maybe you've learned in the process that your appearance doesn't really have as much of an impact as you initially assumed. And you've moved a step beyond where you've started. I'd argue that the "lesson" is the cure and the exercise the means to create access to that lesson. But if you cut out the "lesson", you'd be back at square one. Without the "lesson" you'd remain dependent on any kind of temporary medicine. Be it exercise an actual drug, or a diet or whatever kind of "lifestyle" change you attempted. I'd repeat myself in arguing the "lesson" implies a verbalisation. Or backwards: if you can't verbalise it, you're not cured. For the sake of the argument, lets just assume changing your ways is different to changing your lifestyle. I'd agree with that.
  19. If you've got some time to spend, here's a link to the live hearing of the CA whistleblower. It's mostly about what took place during the Brexit campaigns. But the same applies to the Trump campaign. So it's equally relevant.
