During today's lunch, I challenged myself to not use my phone until I was done eating. This used to be easy for me, but I've since let old habits creep in. I counted at least 6 times, that my hand unconsciously drifted to my jeans pocket trying to take my phone out. I was successful though at stopping myself every time. I was able to finish lunch without needing to use my phone to distract or entertain myself.
What's the point of this exercise? For me, the point is I got to rest my eyes. I work on computers all day. Spending lunch time looking at my phone will not rest my eyes. Looking at something far away in the distance does.
A bonus I got from doing this, is that I had time to think. Without my phone in front of me while eating, I thought about starting an online journal once again.
It is scary, how unbelievably good this cover is. On one end, the song is AI generated. On the other though, there was a human who thought of a cover like this one, and used AI to make it happen. The result is in my opinion, a really good cover of the original. If you're not a fan of the original, then you probably will like this one better.
My Release Radar playlist was on fire today with so many great sounding newly released songs. This is probably the best one! Another banger from Mayday Parade. I can see myself playing this on repeat over the new few days.
Now once again I find myself inside an empty silhouette
Iβll dance around until the light finds me
Poison everything you said you loved
The stuff that fills me up, I feel it burning away underneath my sweater βͺ β« βͺ
Damn Ronnie has gone all in on country rock. There is a reason why they make fun of his band (Falling In Reverse) as not having any genre they specialize in. The truth of the matter is, Ronnie Radke is a true musician and creative genius. This music video is just an example.
Rediscovered an old song today. Man, this is still a really good song!
Try this on, straightjacket feeling
So maybe I won't be alone
Take back now, my life you're stealing
Yesterday was hell
But today, I'm fine without you
Run away this time without you
And all I ever thought you'd be
That face is tearing holes in me again
Getting Click Five vibes from this song. Coming from a band I've never heard of before, all the way from Indonesia. This is an awesome new find. Long live pop punk!
I haven't built a new gaming PC in a long time, but with the coming EOL date for Windows 10, I find myself trying to get up to the date on the latest when it comes to building PCs. An interesting topic I ran into, is how to setup airflow on a PC Case. Specifically, having too many fans at the top of the case, can actually be harmful to your CPU in the long run. The reason seems to be fairly simple, but only when you can visualize the airflow, as the presenter does in the following video.
So in a nutshell, too many top case fans can pull the air out of the PC case, before that air is even allowed to pass through CPU and motherboard.
