    Remember grabbing that one from Rephlex back in the day in a very mulchy low bitrate

    ps. Is any lovely person still archiving these, the last one I grabbed from the mega archive was '279 - 1211 - popcorn.flac' from December 2018 (which now seems to be vanished on the mega site) and the archive.org link at the top here seems to be a few behind that one.

    Crap, I missed that one. Anyone got more info about that one and whether it is the only one missing from the sheet now?

    Spreadsheet is updated:

    Mega is updated, except the filenames don't take 279 Popcorn into account, will need to be fixed when I get up to speed on 2018-2021:

    he cut out a part of the track because it sounds better that way, the fuck are you on about? he did it with Ventolin way back in 1995, and you could still listen to the full version because he made both edits available, like he did with this.

    i mean, do you realize that musicians sometimes edit their compositions?

    It is a lazy edit (self-admitted, IIRC) that made it sound worse. Only one edit available in cleaned-up format, not paying for it. Removing a chapter from a book after publishing it doesn't erase the history. Junk edit, head up his ass that day.  << coming from a huge fan

    Now I hear that Come To daddy version and yes this is so strange thing to do.. Is this why he taking down tracks? 

    He don't seem to know what to do with the tracks or he is not happy over something and need to change/tear up parts.

     

    saying "Fly away babies" after all that time made me think he was always afraid to let go of them for some reason... and now that he has, and has been deleting or modifying them all this time later then that supports my theory.

    RDJ, if you read this, please understand that I nominated, voted, cheered for and pomoted Organ 28 to be on the list to be cleaned up and released, so it was quite devastating when the mastered version FINALLY came out... I listened to it with a huge smile on my face humming along with the memory of the unmastered SC release in my head, and then all of a sudden the smile went away when I realized that a whole transition had been excised. WTAF?!  I'm filing this on WATMM as an official complaint against what you did to Organ 28.

    Sorry but I totally missed this.. I downloaded it when he uploaded it first time and it have always sound the same.

    16.9 mb should the track be right? 

     

    The mastered release, titled "28 organ 1.1 [ru,ec,+9]" is only 6m40s.  The original unmastered soundcloud upload is 7m26s.  RDJ totally ruined the continuity of the piece, not sure why he had his head up his ass that day, but he did. I wish he would have ruined someone else's favorite SC track, since he insisted on ruining ONE.

    You should see WallStreetBets!

    but I agree with you. It’s like how in the 90’s for a brief period, white people started listening to Wu-tang and suddenly thought it was ok to use the n word, with or without the “hard r”. 

    Anyone can say any word they like, pronounced however they wish.

    Blockchain has utilitarian value. Bitcoin is as worthless at Dogecoin at the end of the day.

  7. But I disagree that money's value is based on fairy tales. The value of any money, even back in the days of the gold standard, is based on humanity's assumption that WORK will still be done tomorrow rather than everyone just saying "aww fuck it" and letting everything fall into chaos.

    Money is a proxy for productive work/output... a way to convert your productive work into a universal format that you can trade for other productive work without worrying that your work won't be accepted as direct payment for whatever you happen to be in need of at the time.

     

    Just like "real" money has value because of the trust that productive output is assured, the "value" in BTC is the "proof of work" - a demonstration that the hash wasn't effortlessly generated (thus having no worth). The difficulty in computing a valid coin is just a virtual simulation of a person's "hard days' work", and the newly minted coin produced by that work is the payment for the work. But it's just a computer simulation of human barter.  People have taken it way too seriously and taken the whole experiment too far.
     

    BTC is NOT decentralized or anonymous. It utterly depends on the Internet, which is actually quite centralized in this day and age (i.e. it isn't made up of individual users' computers any more), and it is controlled by a relatively small handful of companies. Most of the enormous electricity requirement, and almost all of the intellectual property and manufacturing prowess required to support the computer software is located within China and controlled by the CCP.  Without China's coal and hydro power, the rest of the world's compute power would not be enough to support the hashrate needed to continue network operation. Without China's manufacturing and raw materials, there wouldn't be a sustainable source of hardware to continue network operation as old hardware becomes obsolete and nonfunctional.

    And that doesn't even touch on the fact that the physical equipment that makes the Internet itself possible (fiber optic cables, switching/routing hardware, PoP facilities, datacenters) are owned by relatively small number of corporations and nation-states. With a couple keystrokes, two Internet Service Providers can cut off 20% of the global internet user population with little to no lasting repercussion. With a couple keystrokes, those same two network operators could knock nearly 70% of the global hashrate offline. There is not really much stopping the CCP from declaring the value of all Chinese-mined coins to be property of the govt and part of its GDP.

    At the end of the day, the corps, banks and govts who own, finance, operate and regulate the internet ultimately decide what traffic is allowed to flow through their property. Tor and BTC are permitted to function today, they aren't inalienable rights.  I don't see the value in BTC because it is too dependent on a massive corporate technology stack, it runs on govt subsidized electricity, it will be broken wide open by quantum computers, and isn't even waterproof FFS.
