  • Thanks a lot :) I do know Giraffes? Giraffes! a bit, and I'm also a great fan of math rock. This is also something my friends don't understand haha. I think all of your recommendations are awesome after checking them out! I will definitely put some of those in my music library. I liked Peela a lot, feels almost like a more modern blend of T-Square and Casiopea.

  • Absolutely! These are the obvious ones, maybe you already know them:

    • T-Square
      • "TRUTH" is an absolute classic, just like "サーキットの放浪者", and "Travellers"
    • Casiopea
      • I think "Be" is my favourite Album, but all are solid
    • Masayoshi Takanaka

    And then also some that are maybe lesser known (no particular order):

    • Katsumi Horii Project
      • They have quite a lot of songs. "Way to morning" or "Flashback" are good examples. I also like "Jungle of Heaven"
    • Trix
      • "ECCENTRIX" is really nice, just like "An Index"
    • Dimension
    • Himiko Kikuchi
    • Naniwa Express
    • Yuji Toriyama
    • Chikara Ueda & The Power Station
    • Toshiki Kadomatsu
    • The Gran Turismo soundtrack also has some hidden Gems here and there

    I think what I like about this genre is that it combines very catchy melodies/riffs and chord progressions with really creative jazzy solos. I have not really found much recent stuff (>2010), though. But I can recommend SOIL & Pimp Sessions. They are more recent and more traditional-jazz-oriented.

    Bonus if you like light prog/math rock: Check out Elephant Gym. Spring Rain (春雨) is one of my favourite songs.

  • I really love Japanese jazz fusion. None of my friends understand my excitement about the EWI solos, they just say it sounds like Mario Kart music lol. I'm also into Buddhism, but dont have anyone else with this interest.

  • At work, I have a very knowledgeable colleague who is quite the Linux nerd. I have been moved into their department and I feel like they never had the chance to share all of their accumulated knowledge with someone, so they kinda dump it onto me and every little question has the chance to become a lecture. I am very thankful for it though, because I get learn a ton but sometimes you just wanna get a bool, without learning kernel internals that are absolutely not related to the question

  • I'm still rocking an i7 4790k and its >10 years old! Judging from the other comments it seems the intel issue is more of a recent one though. If I ever configure a new PC, I'll check out AMD for sure.

  • This is why I thought that maybe it would be good to have some kind of pacing cars, e.g. operated by traffic police? I.e. when you already know or can anticipate that there is a large jam building up, you bring in one pacing car on every lane at an appropriate low speed and everyone has to adjust, so the thing you mentioned won't happen.
