edit: no you are right, The Old Masters gets me too. I just rewatched it and :'(

Half right! "Tales of Ba Sing Se" and the very next episode "Appa's Lost Days", which apparently won a Genesis Award for Outstanding Children's Programming [0].

I was surprised to see The Dragon Prince but not ATLA.

Even on rewatches, the show is powerful for me. There are two episodes that will always make me at least tear up. I would almost hazard to say it is a perfect show for youth. Even the youth qualifier feels shaky sometimes.

Just to add in, an animated show I have rewatched a lot that still inspires me is "Ping Pong the Animation". I recommend the original voice work for the initial run, especially if you understand Chinese. They recasted one of the characters for the bluray release, and the delivery is not quite right in my opinion.

Wait, which MegaMan game has a verbose tutorial?

I tried very hard to steer an old colleague away from their "magical" view of computers, because at some point I aggregated enough experiences and insights to agree with the article's thesis. When working closely with hardware, there's no way around breaking that magic. I would even flavor that how it all "actually" works physically is cool and magical (in a we can compose magic way).

It was interesting to connect some of the issues they asked for help with relate back to this magic-fication.

Do you have any suggestions on how to get started on this?

Just to add to stats (which really, how useful is it with the variables of audio setup and subjective preference): 5/6 with Mobvoi TicPods using aptX HD. My wrong answer is the Jay-Z one and I picked 320kbps.

I listened to the samples multiple times for each test. As I went through, I kind of used a strategy to skip to and compare the busiest parts of the songs for "muddiness". Still, it was always very tough to tell between 320kbps and WAV. Most of them were decided on a subjective "it just sounds slightly clearer and fuller". I think I had the easiest time with the vocals only track; can attribute that to being a vocally-focused listener.

Side note on that last point: Only recently have I noticed how little I heard of drums in my music listening. Picked up edrums recently and realized how lost I was at drum beats "ideas". For melodies I feel like I have a large library of ideas to draw from. On the flipside, now I notice drums a lot more. Hopeful that others can relate to this too?
