Beginning of this year, I stopped using Facebook. Deleted my account. Lost a few contacts to friends (? or acquaintances anyway) that are nowhere else, but that happens.

Now that Google is killing yet another one of their things I had stuff in (Google Music this time), it seems to be a high time to stop using Google as well. This may be a bit more difficult.

Discovered Ayreon's 01011001 album just recently. Brilliant stuff, especially liking the Comatose+Liquid Eternity combo and River of Time. Me like cheesy metal.

"We never spoke of 'the veil between worlds' or it being 'thin' before the Victorians."
"We didn't?"
"They invented it. Well, the steam-driven unveiler."
"Why?"
"To find new worlds to conquer. To colonise."
"Oh. What happened to it?"
"They found us."
"Us? You?"
"I said too much."

Well, one surprising thing happened. I wanted to listen to Dr. Horrible Sing-along Blog soundtrack, and I couldn't find it on Apple Music :( It was on Spotify though.

Also, Opeth's Damnation album is fucking AWESOME. That's the one where they don't growl at all.

Looks like I'm softly drifting towards Apple in my gadgets. It doesn't feel bad. Got an Apple Music sub recently, will be dropping Spotify if nothing surprising happens.

Will probably try Homepod out when it comes out. It sounds like a pair of them would suit my kitchen/living room area perfectly. Also, my next laptop might very well be a macbook.

Apple just announced a super advanced (they say) speaker + siri interface. Having fought with my raspberry3+hifiberry to get a semidecent UX spotify interface, I'm intrigued. If the sound quality is as good as they promise, I'm quite interested.
