Kovcheg is very nice if you like a cappella.
I clicked because it had an interesting design and thought it would be metal! XD
But its a Russian men's singing group and they're very good.

A complementary resource for learning about tube amps is the YouTube channel Fazio Electric. Colleen Fazio does a nice job of repairing old amps and explaining various aspects of their construction, history, and significance. Plus she has a very calming voice and is probably one of the loveliest amp repair technicians out there.
Anyone got a few international favorites? Alright, I'll start
Oroko Radio / Accra, Ghana / https://radio.garden/listen/oro-radio/pmCVm8Ts
FIP Radio / Paris, France / https://radio.garden/listen/fip/YNeGA5ua
I found a couple fun ones near the ones you posted:
https://radio.garden/visit/ris-orangis/QP41kyYR Volubilis Radio, Ris-Orangis France
seems to play some later 60ish stuff
groovy theme, trombone solo
string section, horn section, rock instruments, sitar, harpsichord, quite a setup!
no vocals so far on the last couple of tracks, spy movie theme song stuff
https://radio.garden/visit/yamoussoukro/2hK0VL6B Radio MEDIA+CI Yamoussoukro 90.2 FM Yamoussoukro, Côte d'Ivoire
african rhythms, african and french lyrics, mellower than some of the dance beat stations
nice guitars and vocals
lots of fun bouncing around all of the neighboring stations!

It was not obvious to me that I needed to click the New button first. I clicked around everywhere else and tried typing and no go. Then after clicking New and getting a text area, it made sense and I said "well of course".
So maybe not too many other people had this problem, but perhaps the top line could say "Click New, then just write." =)
And/or start the page off with a note that describes the basic process:
"click new, write, and click Publish to finish the note, then click Save to save it to index.html on your system"
When I went back to edit a note, Publish didn't work for me.
Trying this in Vivaldi, I didn't try on another browser yet.
Third sentence needs some correction:
"MonsterWriter assists students write exceptional academic papers"
should be
"MonsterWriter assists students to write exceptional academic papers"
or "helps students write..."

They also seem to like wine drinkers who haven't had sex well enough too! Sample size one.

what sorts of examples would be helpful? will add screenshots to the readme plus anything else you'd like.
you can also check out the hosted version to see what to expect
It would be helpful to have some examples that show the prompts needed to develop simple shapes, then how to iterate to add improvements. A video of you using it to create something specific would be great.
I first tried "a work table with a roof" which gave me a reasonable model but with a flat roof, then I tried "a work table with a pitched roof" which gave me a very unlikely and unworkable model with the halves of the roof disconnected and not contacting the vertical supports. Then I tried the "Adam Pro" option and it came out looking more like an Adirondack chair than a table, but not one you could sit in! =)
I would like to know what to write instead to get a more useful model. Very cool project though!

I thought this might be about the saying I've heard a bunch recently, "Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast."
I've mostly heard it in the context of building and construction videos where they are approaching a new skill or technique and have to remind themselves to slow down.
Going slowly and being careful leads to fewer mistakes, which will be a "smoother" process and ends up taking less time, whereas going too fast and making mistakes means work has to be redone and ultimately takes longer.
On rereading it, I see some parallels: When one is trying to go too fast, and is possibly becoming impatient with their progress, their mental queue fills up and processing suffers. If one accepts a slower pace, one's natural single-tasking capability will work better, and they will make better progress as a result.
And maybe its just my selection bias working hard to confirm that he actually is talking about what I want him to say!
No idea about the color scheme but it's nice.
Unrelated to any of this, this font reminds of an old Turbo Pascal program I wrote years ago (decades now) to extract a VGA font from the computer's ROM and use the character bitmaps in my own graphics programs. Nice memory I would not have had if not for your question, so thank you!
