DF patch notes are the best! Who can forget bangers such as:

* Made all undead respectful of one another
* Frozen in time; no way to re-enter time continuum
* Dwarf children die from embarrassment at not being dressed at age 2
* Magma crabs drown in magma

News story two weeks from now: "Hegseth orders plaque removed from West Point and replaced with quote from himself about warriors something something"

It's great that my wife is going to lose her job as a STEM education designer unless Polis agrees to pardon or commute the sentence of Tina Peters

This is your first experience with Zebra? Amazing! Everything considered, @uheplugins.bsky.social is prob the best plugin company out there. Everything sounds very high-quality with well-considered & intuitive interfaces + really clean design. Z2 was first plugin to do wavetable synthesis well, IMO.

The breadth and depth of this update is incredible. Love all the new modulation stuff especially.

That is very strange - it (the hardwax.com website) was the top hit for me querying all three terms

Honestly, I could go on for days about the labels I collect but Fax seemed the most noteworthy
December 5, 2025 at 3:27 PM
I have REF 001-006, REF 010 & REFCD1-3. Great label, kinda fell off collecting when I switched from playing in chillout rooms to the jungle rooms around '95

Given their scarcity, luck is *always* involved ;-)

Oh, I also collect Sunn O))) t-shirts & jumpers

* Original MacOS9 audio software
* Hardware samplers (I currently own 8)

* Gamma World-related RPG stuff

You wear it well, sir!

My wife & son are headed to Japan next week, any recommendations for shops in/around Shinjuku with decent Fax label selections? Hoping to track down the last missing pieces in my collection...

Those are some hefty boxes mate

It's amazing how much credibility is granted *by default* to extremely mid bottle blondes. Before I even watched this clip, I knew there would be tears. Nuzzi is so calculating, she's probably got a line item for crying in her interview prep template.

BTW, have you ever read this article about how Music-X was built? Goes into great detail on the Amiga's MIDI limitations, and is just a lovely story about a bygone era. One of my all-time favorite bits of writing on music tech dreamertalin.medium.com/music-x-b4ab...
Music-X
Music-X was the name of a popular Midi sequencer program that I created for the Commodore Amiga in 1988 and which was published by…

You might try looking into the PiStorm accelerator, too. SD card access of course, but I also believe you can just transfer the files over the network if you want (and also really beef up your Amiga experience if actually working on the Amiga is something you want to do).

Do you have old Amiga floppies you need to use?

Re: the USB, can't remember if I ran into that issue, but it's at least worth a try. Unfamiliarity with OS was a big challenge initially - I found that going with a distro like @amikit.bsky.social really helped, top-notch support, friendly community.
