I spent the last few days working on this. It features songs from a variety of µ-Ziq/Mike Paradinas releases to make an album that feels like the original Royal Astronomy. Let me know what you think!

YouTube Music URL: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZIQTa_kwZhD1inUhb_lJYyU8Qjd_akod

Basically my idea is...

• The Fear Remixed=Scaling
• Local Jogger=The Hwicci Song
• Dirtwah=Autumn Acid
• Lexicon=Slice
• Off Lemon=Carpet Muncher
• Hard Love=The Motorbike Track
• My Piano & Me=Mentim
• Not the Fear=The Fear
• Morning Frolic=Gruber's Mandolin
• Tugboat=World Of Leather
• Perfame=Scrape
• Orange Crumble=56
• Grape Nut Beats 1=Burst Your Arm
• Happy=Goodbye, Goodbye

And then a bonus, rougher approximation of Royal Astronomy

• Robin Hood Gate=Scaling
• Piriton=The Hwicci Song
• Wergle the Proud=Autumn Acid
• Epic Blista=Slice
• Stop!=Carpet Muncher
• Silk Ties=The Motorbike Track
• My Mengegus=The Fear
• Dancing Demons=Gruber's Mandolin
• Housewife=World of Leather
• Qisope=Scrape
• It Starts With Bongos=56
• Space Invaders=Burst Your Arm
• Flicklife=Goodbye, Goodbye

Cylobian Sunday! Here's a track from Cylob Music System 3000 Volume 1, originally on Rephlex!

> "Cylob Music System 3000" is a compilation of the two "Cylob Music System" EPs which first appeared on Rephlex in 2004, along with the four tracks released on the vinyl version of the "Spider Report" EP on Breakin'. The tracks were created using the first version of Cylob's self-made sequencing application, hence the name. Styles range from the heavy duty electronic funk of "Spider Report" and "Total Information Awareness", the twisted, detuned melodies of "Inseminoid" and "Chuckle Midget", bells and beats on "We Never Said Goodbye", and the heavy-duty 303 action on the appropriately named "Acid Inseminoid".

Then all the upgrade instructions of backup->update->import backups go away and all you need to do is restart the docker container. (still keep backups though!)

Since that pull request was merged, this will simplify future updates like 0.19.6 or 0.20.0

> Halo 2 is a video game released in 2004. It is the sequel to Halo 1, a game made by Bungie and released in 2001. Halo follows the story of John Halo (master chief to his friends) as he and his pal arbiter do something, I dont know. There are many shadows such as Stencil shadows and Baked shadows. The Covenant want to steal the Oven John Halo uses to Bake his shadows and it is up to the UNSC to stop them. Halo Spartans Didact 343 industries Halo Infinite Halo 7 Playstation Xbox and other things that may help this video get seen

2004 was 20 years ago, that counts as retro, right?

Check the playlist, this whole EP is great. But obviously Tundra 4 is legendary.

> The Black and White series was originally hyped by the always passionate Peter Molyneux. Back in 2001, the first Black and White was being hyped up to be the greatest game of all time. Since then, a sequel was released in 2005 called Black and White 2, which was even more forgotten. Was this a worthy sequel to step the genre forward, or did the series once again fall short of expectations?

Cylobian Sunday!

> "I Will Cross Any Bridge" is a new 14 track studio album marking Cylob's 30th year since his debut release. Developed from works in progress posted on SoundCloud over the last 18 months, the tracks encompass vocoder songs, abstract sonic exploration, acid in unusual time signatures and contemplative ambience in addition to some more straightforward analog jams.

PS5 version: https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/EP6324-PPSA19312_00-0862542480799380

Of course the game is still available on Steam, GOG, Switch, Android, iOS...

Note that this is DIFFERENT from the VR game. The title is misleading, the VR game is not a port it is a reboot with slightly different story and totally different puzzles.

https://liquipedia.net/starcraft2/Esports_World_Cup/2024#Group_Stage

"Knockout Bracket: 13 players from the Main Stage and 2 players from the Qualifiers"

so Shin and Showtime will be in the knockout bracket, I'm guessing top left and bottom left of the bracket

so the top 4 will be made up of the 1st place from each group, the winner between the 2nd place from each group (with the loser going to the knockout bracket), and the last slot is the winner of the knockout bracket
