I make all my playlists by hand. I have three types:

  • Mixes that I've made, either as gifts or for myself; where the order is carefully chosen so one song leads into another pleadingly, where no one artist dominates the tracklist, usually with a specific mood or theme, like "cleaning" or "summer" or "breakup". These kind of playlists are additive and creative; I start with an empty playlist then add and rearrange tracks until I'm happy.

  • "Best of" playlists that are every song I like of a genre or artist or local scene or year or music label. These are usually in release order, grouped by album; or sometimes in descending order of how much I like them (but still grouped by album). These kind of playlists are subtractive and reactive; I dump large swathes of the library in and then remove whatever I don't like enough until only the cream is left.

  • Hemerographs, which is a word I made up to describe playlists where I'm picking songs one at a time and adding them to the queue, but I'm saving the whole queue to listen to again later to recreate the vibe of that day / party / activity. It's additive like the mixes but more flow-of-consciousness and reactive; and also includes inputs from other people, since I'm usually making them on the fly in a social situation.

So, the automatic text description pulled from YouTube gives context but doesn't summarize the video. How does breaking rules create better apartments? What rules? What apartments? Better in what way?

Do you mean regulation that would require sound dampening, or regulation that would prevent people from being loud in the first place?

The former will vary by municipality and have huge exceptions for older buildings. The latter is effectively unenforceable.

If your country knows a way for noise pollution to "just be gone", please share it with us. Please.

I liked the visuals and ambiance, I dropped off once balance got squiffy in the late midgame. I know the dev has been doing balance and QoL tweaks since then but I haven't got back into a second time yet.

I met my wife by way of "cold approach" but I wasn't approaching her to flirt or get her number. Honestly, I was trying to bum a smoke. But we got to talking and we just kept at it. She decided she like me and started flirting, I wasn't totally oblivious and eventually took the hint. I don't know if that's different from what you're talking about or it's just that we are older than you are. Just adding another data point to the conversation.

Dvorak to touch-type but qwerty on my phone's virtual keyboard.

I wear pants, and shoes. Sometimes a jacket. If the weather is bad enough to require more than that, I stay home.

Yeah, most recently one called Sixty-Four that's still in early access on steam. It was pretty fun but some kinks are still getting worked out. I'll probably return to it once it hits full release.

I'm a big fan of Culinary Agents if you're in food & bev at all.

I am religious and my partner is confidently atheistic. Our moral and ethical precepts are well-matched enough to get along with, even though they stem from different sources.
