Show HN: A rain Pomodoro with brown noise, ASMR, and Middle Eastern music

tl;dw

Is the music in the app "real" middle eastern music or not? What's an example of something real if not?

I mean he's not wrong, but why would I watch this nearly 2 hours narcissist orgy? Too much talking, too little music. This video is primarily about this dude making himself look good, which also seriously questions his credibility.

For anyone curious:

> A pluviophile is a person who loves rain and rainy days. It's someone who finds joy, peace, or comfort in the sight, sound, and atmosphere of rain. The term combines the Latin word "pluvia" (rain) with the suffix "-phile" (lover of).

> pluviophile

TIL, thank you lovegrenoble for bringing this adjective into my life. I always just said "Oh I don't mind the rain"...for years..

I love rain too. That site looks cool, thanks for sharing

Either your suggestion or OPs caused my phone to begin to heat significantly within seconds.

For shame, these are great tools...

https://mynoise.net has a ton of sound generators, pomodoro mode, and lets you mix the generators any way you like (see https://mynoise.net/superGenMaker.php) or combine the stems from multiple generators into one (see the directions at the bottom of https://mynoise.net/Community/).

I had the same thought. I've been layering multiple ASMR/ambient youtube videos recently and I find it amazingly relaxing.

For example, currently listening to these three:

- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNi5yUO14jg

- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trpcSJtvMxk

- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCLrDKAv9Fw

There's a million different options out there and it's surprising what layers well.

I suppose one could do it with... 2 browser tabs. Ah but you end up with 2 countdowns.

Makes me wonder about the difference between "ambient cafe: Starbucks" vs "ambient cafe: somewhere in the Middle East"...

Haha never thought about that. Maybe I can find a way to add something like that.

Good idea. I don’t know how to hook it up exactly, but I can add this type of music.

Nope, just took a bit of help on some parts. The text below was styled by AI to fit the theme, that’s probably why it feels that way.

Can we collectively retcon an unencumbered replacement name for such things? Odoromop?

I thought common words were free use...? You don't need a license with Apple to make an apple shaped pomodoro timer.

Thanks for the heads up. I’ll look into it.

Gear icon on the top right, in the desktop version.

90 mins of focus but you take intermittent 5 mins break times after every 25 mins. After 90 mins you take a brief long break.

Hmm, your own playlist sounds fun. I’ll keep it in mind, but sooner than that I might just add some synthwave for you.

Made my day. Hope it keeps you locked in at work.

Thanks! Means a lot.

Thanks
