Patch made with an experimental Thru-Zero FM Node. Despite the fact that I think I ended up making a PM node instead, it's still useful for making tunes: www.youtube.com/watch?v=HDMk...

I'll have plenty to say about the (looong) dev process in coming days/months if anyone wants to hear
But mostly I'll rave about how good UE is for audio, and particularly thank @minuskelvin.bsky.social & @dannthr.bsky.social at Epic for their help over the years; and @chriszuko.bsky.social for his!

I asked ChatGPT to draw a picture of me based on what it knows about me… besides the color of my hair and my face, it was creepily accurate.

Close your mouth, they're never there
And if it happens here, they'll never come for you
Because they'll know you really didn't care

There is no world where Canada joins the USA exempting forceful military takeover. And if he tried to use the military there would be at a minimum mass desertions, but likely a coup. And holding on to Canada would be the most expensive military operation in history.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

The person who came up with "single sign on" I think was using the word "single" quite liberally.
