National holiday tomorrow! July 1st is Canada Day; historically a day to not work, get drunk, light off fireworks, and just appreciate Canada. The downside is that recently we've found some unmarked mass graves full of native children in residential schools. These schools were run by the Catholic Church and backed by the government. Children were ripped away from their families to be tortured and whitewashed. The last of them I think closed only in 1996. 😭 I think in lieu of…
Well I caved and bought with Fiat lol. Hopefully the crypto market goes back up soon so I can comfortably spend some BCH too. Looking forward to playing some homebrew and ROM hack games on my NES! Hopefully it doesn't take too long to get in the mail lol
Got some cool pics of the sky out there tonight
#FULLALBUMFRIDAY ! Let's crush it with some hard 'n' heavy rock - Corrosion of Conformity's 1994 album "Deliverance". If you're into rock that hits hard but doesn't necessarily make your ears bleed, this might be the album for you. I'm not too sure what popular bands I could compare them to. Maybe like a slightly slower and heavier version of ZZ Top? Lead singer/guitarist Pepper Keenan said it best in one of his interviews that he doesn't stress or struggle over things he…
Today while perusing Twitch I learned about the game Phantom Abyss. It kinda looks like an Indiana Jones simulator lol. The game throws you into procedurally generated temples where you need to avoid traps and find treasures. There's more to it, but that's the jist of it. In hoping to stream it later tonight. It looks like so much fun!
My father-in-law let me borrow his turntable because he isn't using it. So happy to hear some of these albums again. 🤘🏻 On deck: Cavity On The Lam
Welcome to Monday! 😂😂
@Noise.Cash - I was wondering if it would be possible to hook some sort of API into tipb.ch for when tips are received? I'd have to learn more about how to hook into API, but I'd love to integrate it into Twitch/streamlabs to have it put up an animation any time somebody tips BCH. Right now there's Twitch integration via Streamlabs where it will throw an animation and play a soundbite any time somebody cheers with bits (Twitch's overpriced currency) or donates. I'm just a…
Tonight on deck - the Cavity "Goin Ann Arbor / Suddenly Sweet Susan" 7" album. Rakrakan-O-Meter: [ █████████░] - Sludgy AF https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nebuVGsT-Q4 #Music
Man, I've been too quiet the last couple of days. I'm okay, just nothing exciting going on haha. Still waiting for that Everdrive to come - I assume it will probably take 2-3 weeks to get here. I've been so spoiled by Amazon Prime 1-3 day shipping so the wait is killing me lol.
What's up Noise? Sorry for the late post today. I found a fun post by @EarlFrancis last night about a site called Drawsaurus: https://www.drawasaurus.org/ It's kinda like Pictionary and doesn't require you to sign up or anything. I had a great experience in there yesterday, even introduced noise.cash to a few new people @STea being one of them, the other was going through some life struggles and I'm not sure if they'd be comfortable with a shoutout or not. They know who they…
Can't remember if I ever shared an update on how those shirts I did held up after a wash... This one's been washed two or three times now and it's held up really well. There were a couple of spots I had to iron down again after the first wash, but it's been solid since then. 🤘🏻🤘🏻 Definitely my fave shirt haha
It's Friday, so you know what that means! Time to dive into another album on this FULL ALBUM FRIDAY! As always, the YouTube link to the album is at the bottom of the post. Today's is a little more mainstream, but one of my favourites. Deftones' Saturday Night Wrist was an album that almost broke the band. The lead singer was dealing with a failing marriage and drug addictions. This was also the last album that bassist Chi Cheng played on before getting into a car crash that…
Today in Drawasaurus a person with the handle "Jo Jo Siwa" completely hijacked the game and it was hilarious. Now we're almost all drawing Jo Jo doing whatever the hint was. She just changed their name to "Billie" and changed the rule to everything being Billie Eilish now. 😂😂
Just spent the better part of the day in Mike Leon's (bassist of Soulfly) Twitch stream lol. What was set as a 2 hour sub-a-thon ended up running 13 hours!! Every time somebody bought/gifted a subscription it added 30 seconds to the timer. That was absolute madness.
Let's talk Crypto scams! Somebody asked me about this one, in particular. They talked about how professional and nice looking the person who contacted them appeared to be, and how all they had to do was share the link with a bunch of people "for fun" and earn boatloads of money. I've long been against the idea of first impressions and judging people on appearance. Like I told them, I dress like a bum more often than not. I'm good at my job. I make good money at my job.…
[EDIT] Well, this was going in the Christian Music channel, but wasn't approved so it was auto-rejected. Bummer. Here's a self-post so it won't go to waste haha What is this madness? Me throwing a post in on c/Christian Music [except it didn't get approved]? 😂 Well yeah, but also kinda nah 🤣. Lyrically I'm not much of a fan of this song, but melodically it's absolutely fantastic. Randomly got stuck in my head today and thought it would be worth sharing in case people thought…
Lmao, called out a scammer calling out another scammer. Their response was deleting the post I called them out on, as well as the one I screenshotted them ripping content Facebook content on... then blocking me. #SorryNotSorry Gianna96 is just as bad as the rest of them. They scooped almost $4 in tips off somebody else's work in one post alone. Seen some other upstanding users on here fall for their stuff too. Thanks to the person who pointed this one out. I'd give you…
IT'S HERE IT'S HERE! haha. The tracking number I was given in my email never updated, so I thought I still had a few more weeks of waiting; but my Everdrive arrived today!! :D So stoked to get this going! #Retrogaming
Tried to drop a post in the Christian Music channel, but it never got approved/declined so they system rejected it by default lol. Not sure if it hit notifications etc, but if anybody's down for some Christian Deathcore, check it out: https://noise.cash/post/1v75qrvj
There once was a man with a stash Of BTC he bought in a flash But when time to sell, At those fees he did yell! If only he'd bought Bitcoin Cash. [Bowing intensifies] 😂
I was wallet tipping before it was cool. Just sayin' 😂 If anybody needs help with the wallet tipping, let me know and I'll do my best to give you a hand. It's good to be able to know how to do it - especially when you find something that's really cool and you want to give it more than just the free tip. It's pretty straight-forward, but will depend on the wallet app you use. [EDIT - THIS IS WRONG] Also, I think there's a minimum limit of 5 cents per tip. [/EDIT] I just…
AtomicHub will show you the value of your entire collection, as well as the value of each individual collection you hold - which is awesome - but why is there no way to sort by value of each individual NFT? I'm really curious as to what the most valuable NFTs are that I'm currently holding. Anybody know if there's another site I can use to sort my collection by approximate value? #NftsOnWax
Forgot to post this last night. The sky was still so blue! This was taken around 9:40 PM, after the sun had set.
Sweet! Got my composite split cable in the mail today, so now I can stream my NES to twitch and play it on my TV at the same time lol
Whoa, it's raining super hard right now
TFIF - Thank Fuck It's Friday! lol This week has dragged on long enough, but in good news, we've made it to Friday, which means it's time for me to share another album on here! Today's FULL ALBUM FRIDAY is The Spirit Tower by the band Fairytale Abuse. This one takes me back to the winter of 2005 when I first found it. This one was posted on Demonoid (a popular Torrent site back in the day) and the cover piqued my interest. The industry likes to cry about piracy being bad,…
One more song to share today. I haven't heard this one in ages, but somebody requested it on a Twitch guitar stream last night, and it's been stuck in my head since haha. If you want a metal song to really pump you up, it's this one... Just sucks that they never seemed to pump out another song that was quite as heavy hitting as this. Alter Bridge - Metalingus Rakrakan-O-Meter: [ ██████████] - Get hyped! Whatever you're doing, you're gonna do it good now! 🤘🏻🤘🏻…
Magandang umaga ka-FSFG! Kamusta ka? I'm not really Filipino, but I've learned a bit from people on here haha. I've been subbed to this channel for a while but never posted in here. I assume most people in here are Filipino? How are things out your way? I gather the weather here in Canada isn't much different from your weather right now - cool and rainy. Really looking forward to the weekend so I can relax and play video games 😂. I'm 12 hours behind you guys there, so it's…
If anybody wants to hang out on Twitch for a bit, I'm currently streaming a homebrew game called "Black Box Challenge" It's an interesting take on the RPG genre where you have to go around a small city to do fetch quests to earn oldschool NES games haha https://www.twitch.tv/abraxas86
Got my 2nd COVID shot today! First one was Pfizer, this one was Moderna. Hopefully the mixing means that the after effects won't be as bad 🤞🏻🤞🏻 I've heard some people have felt like absolute trash after the second dose. I usually don't have any trouble with vaccine so we'll see. If I'm not feeling like a dumpster fire tonight, I'll try to get on Twitch for another stream. I missed last night because I was too tired lol
Jesus fuck, one of the propaganda and disinformation spreaders on here has over 2000 followers... The fuck?! 🤯 Maybe I should switch to fear mongering and spreading bullshit to 😂😂😂 jks
Status update: About to head to bed. No horrible side effects from the shot so far. My left arm is super sore and tender though.
Update: Fever is at 101.5 F. Can't stop shaking. Arm feels like it entered a boxing match as the punching bag. Hopefully I feel better when I get up for the day
Update: Still alive, but my fever shot up to 103.5 where it's remained since like 5am. I'm super bored, my dreams are all super stupid and boring. I feel like I've reached the end of the dream pool because every one has been the same ☹️
Still in rough shape... Fever has come down a little bit though. From 103.5 to 102.7. sleeping a bit better now too. Sorry I haven't replied to anybody's comments on my posts... Concentrating has been a bit tricky lol.
Hi all! I'm back in action today. Fever was down to 99.4 and I felt okay enough to work. Hopefully it stays down, but I'll check it again in a few minutes. Not too much new and exciting. My Alien Worlds account finally got fixed so I can mine again... that's pretty cool. I guess I should drop a song as well, since I didn't share one yesterday lol. This tune is cool because they almost emulate the Godzilla scream sound effect with their guitar. Gojira - New Found…
Haven't shared anything from my collection in a while... Here's another thrift store find from a few months ago. Admittedly, I haven't played it yet so I have no idea if it's any good lol. I love that the box has a bunch of codes in it, though. It's always cool when pre-owned games have little traces of their past owners in them. #Retrogaming
Current mood: Chima - Morgen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uhv6HMve1RE Rakrakan-O-Meter: [ █████░░░░░] [PRE-POST EDIT] Fuck this is a depressing post. I'll probably delete this later... Sorry for rambling... It felt good to get this off my chest, though. [/EDIT] "Und träume von Dingen, die ich mir fürs Leben wünsch' Für die ich brenne, aber ansonsten nichts weiter tu' Eigentlich will ich hier nicht sein Alle ziehen an mir vorbei Alle haben Ziele Machen ihr Ding Was ist mit…
Most people probably know Crossfade for their song "Cold" but I've always much preferred their song "Colors". It's a good reminder to be your best self, though I'm not sure I fully understand what the message is that the music video is trying to portray lol. These guys would fit in well with Chevelle or Breaking Benjamin. This song is also kinda depressing, but also delivers a kinda positive reminder in the same way. Side note: thanks for the support yesterday on my post. It…
I see you silent followers in my notifications hearting my posts, and I just wanted to say I appreciate all you guys too. Feel free to drop a comment sometimes - we don't bite (usually) 😂 Seriously though, there's no way to click through to profiles from the notifications, so I don't often visit you guys and gals. If you leave a comment, more people will be able to see your profile. I hope all you silent (and not) peeps have an awesome day. We've almost made it through…
Just noticed I'm at lucky 1313 subs haha. Side note: Do we not get notified any more when people renoise our posts?
Have you guys tried the RPG doodle on Google today? It's actually pretty well put together haha
A bit late for this FULL ALBUM FRIDAY, but it is still Friday, and better late than never right? I started listening to Rammstein in late elementary school (probably 7th or 8th grade?) it was Du Hast, Engel and their cover of Striped (originally by Depeche Mode) that piqued my interest. It was my good goth friend at the time that got me into them... At that point, I was still way into pop music and stuff on the radio. Anyway, fast forward to 10th grade and my buddy Mark…
I saw some posts about an earthquake in the Philippines 😬😬 Anybody know if any of our Noise Fam are affected by it? I really hope everyone is okay ♥️♥️
Hey NOISE, what's new and exciting today? I took care of my usual weekend grocery duties today, but out off the housework to visit my in-laws and make them dinner with my fiancee. It's always nice visiting them ♥️ In other news, I'm so close to beating the NES game I've been playing on Twitch, and in my mind I'm already trying to figure out what to do next. I'm bad for never finishing anything, so usually I'd just stop playing and move on to the next thing... But people have…
Goodmorning Noise! How are things going today? Sorry I was so silent yesterday... Weekends tend to be quieter internet days for me, as I'm not attached to a computer for 7 hours during the weekend days haha. @Anonymousone made an unofficial Discord server for Noise if anybody's interested: https://discord.gg/GrjtyTsf8A I've also almost beat the NES game I've been playing for the past few days. Technically I did beat it, but there's a few things I missed and I kinda want to…
New pic, who dis? 😂 Sorry for the shake-up, found a cool Leviathan Cross pic on the internet earlier and decided it was time for a new profile picture lol. Hope everybody's having a great Tuesday! Work's frustratingly steady. Not busy enough to show an actual phone queue, but we're basically *just* at the cusp of there being one. It's extra frustrating like this because it's hard to gauge when/if there's going to be some quieter time lol. Hopefully it will quiet down soon so…
Fun fact: you can pin posts to the top of your page now, so you can create a bit of a "welcome" post for new visitors to your profile! I'll take the opportunity to use this post for that very purpose! (Go to your "My Posts" section, and click the V menu to access the pin option) Thanks for taking the time to visit my Noise profile! I'm a non-theistic Satanist from Ontario, Canada. I try to post at least once a day, usually sharing my goings-on and a song or two. Fridays I…
My original goal was to try to reach 1BCH (between tips and my own contributions) and just wallet tip the rest as it comes... That said, I'd probably reach the goal faster if I'd stop giving so much away beforehand... but there are some wallet tips that are too fun not to give. 😂 My current system is to receive smaller BCH tips into one wallet, and then transfer it in bulk to my cold wallet. But sometimes the stars align and I have a good amount of money in my first wallet…
Whoooo-wee what a day! Not many quiet moments to relax between calls on the desk today (hence my lack of noise). I Found what might be the most technically impressive NES game created to date - in April of this year somebody dropped a 3D ray-casted game that doesn't even require any additional mappers/hardware to run. Most NES games after 1990 were including additional memory modules and other expansions on the game boards to allow the games to go beyond the basic hardware…
Kid Icarus was first released December 1986, just a few months after Metroid (August '86). It wouldn't see North America until almost a year later in July of '86. The game plays similarly to Metroid though honestly doesn't feel like it's aged quite as well. This game was a thrift store find from around 2009. I managed to nab it for $5CAD. The box isn't in the best shape, and the manual is missing the cover, but I'm still happy to have it in my collection. Whoever owned it…
Another busy day at work, I've been trying to drop this post all day but just couldn't sneak it in. Monday is a civic holiday here so I tomorrow off from work for an even longer long weekend, so as per usual, my noising will be a bit quieter over the next few days. Hope you guys have an awesome next few days. I'll still be lurking in the comments and try to drop a few posts. That said, here's a Full Album Friday post on Thursday! Full Album Fursday? 😂 Intervals are a prog…
Old patio is out, new patio is almost in... Next it will be time to put up the shed.
All done!
