okay, I just realised in my post, even though I wrote it from scratch, it sounds like ChatGPT wrote it. like, I swear, reading that whole thing made me cringe so hard and I didn't even write it that long ago! :purple_giggle:

anyway, I don't really have more to say, I just wanted to get that off my chest real quick. I'll try not to be so... paragraphic next time I guess? I dunno, just thought it was odd, 'kay bye!

:yellow_popcorn:
AI would not use subjective terms like "I think" and "interesting". You're being way too hard on yourself.
honestly i (thankfully) havent seen ai content as often anymore but the best i can describe ai is that it writes like a stereotypical redditor trying to sound smarter than it actually is

i mean ai has been known to pull information from reddit regardless of if it's posted as a joke or not. so you're probably right

I love them too, I even have a Walkman that I use to play them! The one thing is that sometimes it can be hard to find Type II tapes.

I've always wondered what Type II tapes would sound like on a Walkman 'cus I don't think they're designed for those; maybe I'm wrong but anyway, do you have a tape collection and if so, what music do ya listen to on 'em?

I have don't have the gear to put custom music on my cassettes yet but I have a digital collection of music with a tape emulation chain over it, but it ain't the same, it's really fun to actually design the filter for each song though or make a virtual mixtape
