Sure beats the guitar concert with 60 guitar players I saw in Almere-Haven today

That sounds like a massive noise to me.

Luckily they did not play together all the time, it seems most of them were inexperienced young students. The conductor seemed to have Irish roots, he wore a green suit with clovers

I'm jealous

I guess the bar is that low these days.
I guess you have to set expectations. I'm not going to rush to my neighbor's and ask him to play this on his $30,000 worth of audio gear.

some people just don't appreciate lo-fi art. 
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Well, "art" is subjective...

my favorite was the star wars empire theme music on old floppy drives.
Star Wars - Imperial March on Eight Floppy Drives - YouTube[^]
But i also love the electric toothbrushes.

Obligatory formula one car[^], it starts at 55 seconds, before that they're warming up the engine.
Makes you wonder how british Renault actually is though.

I guess the guy from the YouTube channel didn't have a spare F1 car at hand

And how do you know this to be a LOWER limit?

You know, when you would search something and what you wanted, you actually got? And not someone else's idea of what you needed?
Bin Google and use DuckDuckGo.

problem is the "someone elses's" is 99.995% commercial.
without seeing user comments there's really no such thing as an honest review site anywhere
(many review sites now filtering, limiting or some not allowing user comments anymore.)
couple of weeks back was looking for a new printer for home
... the amount of bull scat that is out there on the net, research on the net is not fun, not fun at all.
Paying bills and shopping on-line is OK,
but I miss the usenet, (first got on it back in the mid 80's) before business got on it (even heavy involved companies like AT&T/Bell Labs didn't push sales/advert crap through it).
Oh and yes, even back then it had pron, quite a lot: alt.s*x news groups anyone?

I always search variations of "Product X sucks". "Product X is terrible". "Product X never buying again" "hate product X" etc.
then i see what i come up with. i've always found that more honest than review sites. I'll look at maybe one of those reviews to see what features the thing has but that's all. i want to know what people dislike about it before i buy it.

The reason comments are gone is spambots and trolls.

Really? I am amazed at how well google works. They do such a good job making a ton of data useful.
