This one always reminded me of something I would hear on an old Pokemon game OST.

Or maybe some Soviet era claymation series called something like Svbaro Plunkt about the days of two middle-aged office-building repair workers

If he read watmm (I'm pretty sure 'the internet is evil' applies to watmm) I'm certain that he has better things to do. But if I was him, I know I would. On occasions. For a laugh. We all grown up now. But if BOC, Rome Track, Melodie's From Fucking Mars appeared the head honcho is done. 
 

Mike, Marcus, Tom, Richard, Sean and Rob cannot save us.

So we dissolve into darkness.

The boys are never going to release anything now, with these new tariffs In place. It would be economical suicide.

Let's accelerate

it is sobering to think that if BoC released a new album now, it probably would save watmm and everything would be fine. i'd give anything for that to happen. what can we do? i'll try whatever i can think of...

from the other topic. I think this belongs here: 
 

Boards of Canada, the Scottish electronic music duo, have released four major studio albums over their career. To estimate the average time they spent producing their music per minute, we can analyze the intervals between these releases and the durations of the albums.

Studio Albums and Their Durations:

1. Music Has the Right to Children

   • Release Date: April 20, 1998
   • Duration: Approximately 71 minutes

2. Geogaddi

   • Release Date: February 13, 2002
   • Duration: Approximately 66 minutes

3. The Campfire Headphase

   • Release Date: October 17, 2005
   • Duration: Approximately 62 minutes

4. Tomorrow's Harvest

   • Release Date: June 5, 2013
   • Duration: Approximately 62 minutes

Calculating Production Time per Minute of Music:

• Between "Music Has the Right to Children" and "Geogaddi":

  • Time Span: April 20, 1998, to February 13, 2002
  • Duration: Approximately 3 years and 10 months (~46 months)
  • Total Minutes of Music Produced: 66 minutes
  • Production Time per Minute of Music: 46 months / 66 minutes ≈ 0.7 months per minute

• Between "Geogaddi" and "The Campfire Headphase":

  • Time Span: February 13, 2002, to October 17, 2005
  • Duration: Approximately 3 years and 8 months (~44 months)
  • Total Minutes of Music Produced: 62 minutes
  • Production Time per Minute of Music: 44 months / 62 minutes ≈ 0.71 months per minute

• Between "The Campfire Headphase" and "Tomorrow's Harvest":

  • Time Span: October 17, 2005, to June 5, 2013
  • Duration: Approximately 7 years and 8 months (~92 months)
  • Total Minutes of Music Produced: 62 minutes
  • Production Time per Minute of Music: 92 months / 62 minutes ≈ 1.48 months per minute

Average Production Time per Minute of Music:

• Total Production Time: 46 + 44 + 92 = 182 months
• Total Minutes of Music Produced: 66 + 62 + 62 = 190 minutes
• Average Production Time per Minute: 182 months / 190 minutes ≈ 0.96 months per minute

This analysis suggests that, on average, Boards of Canada spent approximately 0.96 months (about 29 days) producing each minute of music across these three intervals. Notably, the interval between "The Campfire Headphase" and "Tomorrow's Harvest" was longer, indicating a more extended production period for the latter album.

Note: This calculation assumes that the entire interval between album releases was dedicated solely to producing the subsequent album, which may not account for other activities such as touring, personal time, or other projects.

Every time someone asks AI about Boards of Canada they delay the album by one year.

an then they publish screenshots of the posting on their social media specifically confirming this very user is at fault 

Every time a post is made to this thread the album is delayed another 3 months.

Oops

GUYS!  I've cracked the code and the numbers don't lie... OK bear with me.

it's been 4301 days since the last BOC release...  Ok.  The average person farts 10 times a day so 10 x 4301 = 43010, so there have been 43010 solo BOC "releases" since the last album.

But to be a true "BOC release", they both have to fart at the same time.  We don't care about solo releases.

SO assuming an average fart duration of 2 seconds, and 86400 seconds in a day, that's 86400 / 2 which is 43200.

Bear with me here.

43200 - 43010 = 190, so in 190 days the time probability that both will fart at the exact same time approaches unity and we should have a true "BOC release"!  Can't wait.  You'll see.

what if boc decided to work maintaining a remote hotel in the mountains during the winter to gain inspiration for their next album and things went crazy like in the shining
