It's funny, set my phone to only recieve 2g calls while in the same room as the speakers a few days ago. Instant blast to the past when i could predict phonecalls. Still fun doing it today!

[–] kionay@lemmy.world 25 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

almost 20 years ago I downloaded off limewire a cover of Toxicity by System of a Down, purely instrumental and listened to it through highschool

the artist listed in the file's metadata was Trans Siberian Orchestra. back around 2005 finding out that they never covered Toxicity was somewhere between challenging and impossible so I accepted it and forgot about it

recently I wanted to re-find that song, maybe on Spotify or YouTube or wherever. only this year did I realize that that artist was never correct, and googling held nothing for me

in one of the vanishingly rare successful uses of a large language model I got ChatGPT to suggest artists from that time that might have covered that song and after a few tries dismissing the most popular artists it spat out Vitamin String Quartet and I get to listen to a higher quality version of the song I first heard around 2005

Given that I have some speakers from the same era hooked up to monitor three, currently it's (Neko)nomicon by Obkatiekat. Also monitor 3 is a HP Pavilion, I want to play Arcanum in roughly correct resolution.

Random crackling noises and a weird high pitched tone, until you find the perfect potentiometer position for it to work, but then it's either way too loud or way too quiet
