      • CatQuest appreciates that the comments go on about how #megadeth is not black metal"
      • CatQuest
        :D
      • also that cat is unhappy :(
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        Megadeth is thrash metal, not black metal
      • That cat hates being brushed, it seems
      • My grandma had a cat (RIP) who hated being brushed, and so he often had mats in his fur
      • CatQuest
      • especilly at the "lyrics" at the bottom
      • D4RK-PH0ENiX has quit
      • D4RK-PH0ENiX joined the channel
      • most of these "cats singing metal" are cats that are unhappy and or wants to be left alone though :/ so to someone who is used to catlanguage it comes of as disenhartening, not funny or cool :/
      • I'm certian most people doing recordings as well as comemntors don't own many cats or have had cats fro long
      • it seems people don't know the language/thing
      • but if you've had cats for a while you recognize that noise as "DO NOT WANT" basically
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        That one cat wasn't happy, but she needed the brush
      • D4RK-PH0ENiX has quit
      • CatQuest doesn't know
      • Flattened ears are also a giveaway
      • CatQuest
        I know my own cat didn't like it either, she had long hiar and eventually it woudl hurt her whne i brushed her for too long
      • but I wouldn't film it :/
      • flattened ears, yep
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        It would be cumbersome to film it, unless you had a tripod
      • CatQuest
        also filming cats/kids/people/dogs whatever in distress and marketing it as "funny" is not something I've ever understood
      • peopel or dogs or cats beign stupid or clumsy, sure fine
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        If it's people, I wouldn't do it unless those involved consented
      • Leo_Verto
        or those videos of animals (I think it was an elephant) "dancing" to music
      • CatQuest
        a cat which falls down and then nonchalantly acts all "I meant to do that" is hella funny
      • CatQuest thinks it's even meanier to do it with animals as they can't actually express their distress or unvllingness to be filmed and are at human's mercy, while other humans can be all like "wtf cut that out" and/or get legal action at you
      • a humna ca say "don't be a dick" or actually just flip yo uoff and go away for ever. an animla is owned by you and at your mercy
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        In a lot of those videos the animal looks/acts distressed but is not in any danger and/or is not being harmed
      • If the animal was in fact in danger, that'd be "put the fucking camera down" territory
      • CatQuest
        generally people will also act more aghast at such with humans and chidlren it in because a: they recognise the distress of our same species much easier and b: other people will be a lot more "not cool dude" and there are things ot prevent abuse to humans
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        And if there are kids involved, that video may come back to bite them later
      • CatQuest
        yea ok, but generally distressed cat/dog/whatever makes me distressed too
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        Same here
      • CatQuest
        *especialy* because humans can basically do whatever ot animalsin a completely different way than people. and I don't mean like "hurt/hit/ilegal
      • animals are stupid compaired to humans
      • animals don't actually know that it'sillegal for humans to hit or abuse them, or in fact what "illegal" means
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        It's not illegal everywhere
      • CatQuest
        pets are like little retard slaves with teeth <3
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        Dogs anyway
      • CatQuest
        (I hope i offended everyone with that)
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        With cats, the roles are reversed
      • CatQuest
        nah, cats can be retarded too
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        They own us
      • (or at least they think they do)
      • CatQuest
        we like ot think that but reallity isn't so
      • yea. :)
      • CatQuest is off
      • :)
      • hibiscuskazeneko is too
      • Rotab
        what is even going on in here?
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        We were chatting about cats "singing" metal
      • then CatQuest remarked that the cat looked unhappy, and it got derailed from there
      • Leo_Verto
        <3 derailing
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        Today is Cat Day in Japan, apparently
      • (apparently it's also National Margarita Day, according to Yelp)
      • D4RK-PH0ENiX joined the channel
      • (granted it's probably almost midnight there, right D4RK-PH0ENiX?
      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        close to, yes
      • hibiscuskazeneko became acutely aware of the time zone difference thanks to that harsh lesson last week
      • 2:22 - ににに → にゃにゃにゃ
      • hibiscuskazeneko
        :3
      • D4RK-PH0ENiX
        therefore cats and catpeople day in Japan :3

        CatQuest: some searching suggests they were made before guitars were popular and aren't really a hybrid or anything, only this naming suggests it

        Did someone in here link to a blog post doing a mash-up of the article author's Last.fm data with MusicBrainz and other data a while ago? (I think it was in 2016, but may have been 2015.)

      • CallerNo6
        Freso, me what? The last.fm mashup thing? It sounds like something that I'd link to heere and then forget about entirely.
      • Freso
        Yep. But also something you might bookmark or some such for "later study" (ie., "forget about entirely", as you put it).
      • Freso should be better at bookmarking things...
      • arbenina_ joined the channel
      • Freso wonders if it was maybe a tweet...
      • pinnerup_ is now known as pinnerup
      • reosarevok
        CallerNo6: while you're around, mind helping https://community.metabrainz.org/t/new-and-drea... (I would but I'm trying to finally deal with the five classical releases I've had open in its own window for a month)
      • Freso
        Is there a way to search tweets by a specific twitterer?
      • Freso gives up for now
      • furq
      • Freso only has about 30 minutes left of power on the laptop anyway...
      • SothoTalKer
        MuzkMesh is a mashup application that uses web
      • services of Last.fm, MusicBrainz, Youtube, Lyricsfly and
      • google maps and aims to help users find new artists or new
      • songs.
      • oops o.o
      • CallerNo6
      • Freso
        CallerNo6: That's not a blog post/article though.
      • CallerNo6
        True. So definitely a blog post? Okay.
      • reosarevok
        SothoTalKer: they seem super dead
      • SothoTalKer
      • reosarevok
        That does look like what Freso meant
      • CallerNo6
        reosarevok, about the forum post, looking now.
      • Freso
        Yep, that's the one!
      • Thanks SothoTalKer!
      • SothoTalKer
        yay, i was helpful :D
      • Freso
        SothoTalKer: How did you find it?
      • SothoTalKer
        reosarevok: muzkmesh was a project from some scientific paper thingy. no doubt it's already gone again ;x
      • hibiscuskazeneko joined the channel
      • i searched for 'Last.fm data with MusicBrainz and other data blog mash-up' and then looked through the results
      • arbenina_ has quit
      • any result linking to any of the *brainz sites or github could safely be excluded
      • Freso
        I searched for about the same, but found nothing. Ah well. :/
      • SothoTalKer
        it's well hidden
      • Freso
        Well, it could have been a blog on github.io. :p
      • Anyway. Seems like we're about to land, so they'll ask me to stow away the laptop any minute now.
      • SothoTalKer
        you should have given us the flight number. we could have watched you on flighradar :D
      • t
      • Freso
        Whichever Norwegian flight was scheduled to fly from CPH→BCN at 19:25...
      • reosarevok
        Oh, that reminds me I should buy my tickets this weekend...
      • Freso
        Or just get them now!
      • reosarevok
        Don't think I'll go via BCN though, probably Madrid - BCN is too tricky to go to my hometown through, sadly
      • Freso
        NOW!
      • You can go through BCN on the way back.
      • reosarevok
        The idea is to do BCN or Madrid - Asturias - Azores for a while - back via Lisbon :)
      • (btw, been to Asturias yet?)
      • (you should clearly all organise a MB office trip during mid-July and come see me while I'm around! ;p )
