Do you have Quick Tap enabled? I have mine set up to show notifications (I miss the old ability to swipe down on the rear fingerprint reader), but yours might be set up to play/pause media.
Great tune, and my favorite jazz musician of all time, bar none. Also, the quality of this video is outstanding. I’m not sure I’ve seen any Bill Evans trio video recordings from this era that are that clear. Thanks for posting!
Nice! I do often miss the days of my 120 GB iPod classic with an album collection that I had carefully curated over the course of decades. There is a lot that is convenient about the streaming era, for sure, but I feel like that set of hundreds of albums that I listened to over and over again was a really unique and personal set of music, and having a bunch of favorites on Spotify just isn’t the same…
Thanks for this! This is a blast from the past.
I remember finding this CD (and a few others from the collection) amongst my dad’s music collection, right as MP3s were becoming a thing in the mid 90s.
I ripped them and they made their way onto my computer / Winamp playlists, followed me to college, and were on every generation of iPod that I used. With the switch to streaming services, I tried to bring along as much of my collection as possible, but some things just got lost.
The whole collection is incredibly curated for a very precise late-night vibe. The Billy Holliday one is great too - remember that one.
There is !reddead@lemmy.world, but it’s pretty quiet. You could try posting there to get some of that content going. It’s a bit of a vicious cycle, though - the lack of content drives people away, leading to less content.
I will say that even in smaller communities I find that people are quite helpful here with questions, which is great.
It does seem like the post reddit boom of interaction and growth has waned, thought, and many of the communities that were starting to grow are now much quieter than they were a few weeks ago. I think that the lemmy.world downtime for so long really drove people away, which is a shame.
Black out shades for the nursery if you don’t have them… We live at a pretty northern latitude and in the summer the kid would never sleep! There are some cheap ones that suction cup to the windows, which are great for travel too and won’t break the bank.
We bought one color changing smart lightbulb for the nursery lamp and it was a great idea. You can turn it red and still be able to see when you come in at night, like a darkroom, while still being able to navigate the room and not trip over stuff.
Echoing the white noise machine. A cheap smart speaker (Google mini) can also be useful - you can adjust the volume from outside the room; there are ton of white noise podcasts, and if your kid likes music instead, you can start with that and switch to white noise.
Yeah, even though slow motion makes it look worse, I was shocked that it wasn’t given in real time. But the commentary team was convinced that it was just a natural body position. I continue to have no idea what constitutes a handball in the box.
If you don’t like it, don’t pay for it and use something else?
Yep! Fixed it, thanks.
For those of us who used sync for reddit regularly for years, it’s pretty cheap. But if it doesn’t fit your needs, thankfully you have plenty of other options these days!
We did that for a number of years and they do work OK. Two or three years ago, we finally broke down and bought standalone air purifiers when we had a newborn. I know they’re expensive, but if you get them off season they’re much cheaper. Might consider it if you’re going to be in Seattle for the long haul, unfortunately… They work well, are pretty energy efficient, and are much quieter than the box fans.
These longer-range forecasts should be considered very rough approximations, but it’s hard to see the smoke going away with weak steering currents expected to remain in place through the end of August.
Good thing we’ve still got some N95s in storage!
I think that !seattlemariners@lemmy.world may be more active?
Didn’t even know that this was happening, but glad to see it! (At least in the summers - it’s been a zoo recently and hopefully this will give everyone a little room to spread out!)
Reminds me of the Edith Macefield house, in Ballard (Seattle, WA).
.
If you’re ever in Ballard, I highly recommend the excellent cocktail bar Hazelwood, which pays tribute to her with a namesake cocktail (the Edith Macefield).
They are standard deviations, which is described in the footnote. But yeah, probably better to label that axis.
I would hope so… If you go to a league that has been won by your club 11 times in a row and don’t win a trophy, something has gone horribly wrong.
Yeah, I barely use quick tap. The swipe down was so intuitive, and with a bigger phone triple tapping requires you to rebalance the phone in your hand, etc.
