  • This is by far the largest music metadata database that is publicly available. For comparison, we have 256 million tracks, while others have 50-150 million. Our data is well-annotated: MusicBrainz has 5 million unique ISRCs, while our database has 186 million.

    Does this mean the MusicBrainz database will soon go from 5 million to 186 million tracks?








  • Context (the original Reddit post)

    Text copy of the post

    My schizophrenic sister hospitalised herself because she throught she was having a psychotic episode where someone was attempting to communciate with her through her fridge. Turns out it was an advert on the LED screen.

    Need some advice. She’s not really capable of organising most of her own affairs.

    She spent 2 days under monitoring. This isn’t the first time she’s been kept in as she has had previous psychotic episodes once every two years or so.

    During this time her medications were adjusted.

    She also rang me during this time to tell me that “someone was trying to communicate with her through her fridge.” She booked a taxi to A&E and was driven there.

    I’ve finally got her back home a few days ago. However, when I was scrolling on Facebook today I saw an advert on a smart fridge which stated the words, “WE’RE SORRY WE UPSET YOU, CAROL.” It was set against a creepy yellow background and was very ominous. Upon closer inspection it was an advert for some TV show.

    That’s my sister’s name. Carol. I sent her the photo and asked if this was what she saw. She confirmed it.

    Some creepy advert in a place where an advert shouldn’t usually go has sent her to the bloody hospital and triggered a review of the efficiacy of her antipyshotics.

    Is this even legal in the UK? Running creepy adverts like that on a smart fridge with absolutely no way of knowing who could’ve seen them?
