On next Monday’s edition of #ThePlaylist

The Colours Of The Rainbow

It’s pride month, and what better way to celebrate than with a celebration of the pride flag. So we’re looking for songs that feature red, orange, yellow, green, indigo, violet, white, pink, blue, brown, and black.

I mean, if ever I needed more persuading that my sub can go away, this is it. (We still have two pre-4K Apple TVs. One is used on my tiny office TV. It works perfectly well with every other service, and so Netflix can go do one.)

Edit: to clarify, HD onwards will work with Netflix. Pre-HD (and pre-tvOS) will not. It’ll be interesting to see how rapidly everyone else does the same. (IIRC, Prime still worked on those old boxes.)

@craiggrannell Can’t the 2G and 3G ATVs be jail broken to run Plex? I’ve lost track of which one is which, but I still have a couple of them knocking about.

@mcelhearn The older ones didn’t have an app store, just whichever apps came bundled in the OS.

I like that I can’t see the toot I just tooted.

With the news that fucking Farage has decided to continue spreading faeces all over British politics, I once again give thanks to mute filters.

I also give thanks to the plane that valiantly gave its life in a doomed attempt to make the world a better place.

@Bez_Lightyear A real sliding doors moment, init. A few knots faster and Brexit may not have happened.

Was in TK Maxx the other day, so obviously I made a beeline for the shoe section to see what monstrosities I could find.

Gopping footwear was sadly thin on the ground this time, but I did find these beauties. Perfect for when you know you’re going to do a runner from your court hearing.

@Jennie I’m bringing back all the ‘90s words. Because I’m rad.

The nice thing about is that it's not the end of the world if you forget to post something one day, because there are so many other posts to enjoy.

Something else I like about is how it’s put me in contact with a whole bunch of blind people, which in turn has helped me to appreciate the power of alt-text.

As an aside, I quite like the quality of this little mic. My handling of it, and my breathing into it leave a lot to be desired, as does the amount of reverb in this tin box of a room I'm in. But if set up properly and not swung about by a breathy gorilla it sounds quite nice.

I got it for free from my kid who was supplied it when he started uni as part of his SEN package. He didn't need it, so I nicked it for just in case.

@thewebmusician I've always loved Jerusalem. It's a beautiful piece.

@thewebmusician Ah, it's cool. The sound quality was perfectly fine.

While typing up this list, I couldn't help but be amazed by how many people are willing to take a couple of minutes out of their lives to ponder a silly request I make and give me serious, great suggestions.

And not only that, but a good number of those took even more time out of their lives to listen in without knowing if I'd remembered to put their suggestion in the show.

I won't lie, it makes me feel honoured.

Follow all of these champions.

Not being on twitter anymore means it took a couple days to find out Alex Jones cried and begged for money on air over the weekend because he is staring into the dark abyss of imminent ruin and honestly congrats to him for finding his purpose because the ONLY activity available to online-tv neo-Nazis, be it Jones, Matt Walsh or Tim Pool, should be crying and begging for money because they're staring into the dark abyss of imminent ruin. it's like water finding its level. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/jun/03/alex-jones-sandy-hook-payment

@billyjoebowers Be kinder than that. I don't want those to be his last words. I want them to be a weekly podcast that runs for several years. @GrimmReality

@DJDarren What was the synth music you had as background? I kept recognising bits but thinking "nah, can't be".

DJDarren,
@DJDarren@mendeddrum.org avatar

@Ade_on_drums It was a Moog cover of Black Hole Sun. So yeah, it probably could be what you thought.

I’ll tell you how astonishingly good I am at Radio: Even factoring in the delay caused by streaming latency, I handed the @labr stream back at 22:00:02.

Two seconds over, while manually backtiming and having to allow for latency. That’ll do.

Not only will I have to return the airwaves to @brothersoul shortly, but Milocat is also yelling at me impatiently, because I’m in the Wrong Place. #ThePlaylist
