issues of model training data and the broader issues of generative AI, and those are big asides, using the statistical average machine to "explore ideas" in creative settings is a wild. that level of vagueness coming from the c-suite does not inspire any charity in me

i'm switching today and my biggest worry isn't linux related it's making sure i don't accidentally delete something i didn't back up while swapping things around so i can my drives not ntfs

after a months of exposure to your Nioh propaganda, i started playing Nioh 2 today and it's incredible

my only regret is that i started playing on a work night

Big O seems like a good fit, maybe a barbatos lupus rex, Z'gok has strong orky vibes

i always feel good when i paint, or do any art related stuff for that matter, but i can never keep the momentum going anymore. i do not appreciate the level of mentally ill i currently am.

like, there was no ill will involved, it's just that i wouldn't have necessarily chosen to have been in that situation.

Nice, investment from a slave state, super awesome. So glad that they'll have fingers in the pie for national level infrastructure. I love it when when the government sell us out to whoever comes for the pillaging.

most of the time i just end up making an unsatisfying cacophony when i use it but it's been the best happy accident generator i've ever had and i want to continue down that path as i add on to it

meat space version, a nifty case and one of those ikea wood boxes that happen to be 3u tall. the positions for these are not optimized at all and I need to cut some holes so that idc cable that connects them can be less janky. i have a fully 3d printed rack planned out as a vacation project

the beaks are my percussion sources right now but i'd like to get something purpose made for that so i can use them as utilities and something else for melodic sequencing. i've been staring into a shopping cart abyss containing an omnitone beatsi and an o_C for two months, eventually i will fall in

modules, i've prioritized ones that i can diy on a budget. other than the cre8audio and behringer modules so far it's all diy. the eventual goal is to have a generative and sequencable path for both percussion and bleeps. next build is an erica synths bassline

I've mostly switched over this year, still need windows for Ableton though. I'm getting closer and closer to just buying a mac mini for all of my audio related needs so I can be done with MS.

i didn't need a plex server
i needed a jellyfin server 🤓

i used to do the whole manually manged on device thing but jellyfin/seerr and the *arr stack on a discrete server have made management way easier. being able to share, have access away from home and on multiple devices has just been a bonus.
