just got dire straits brothers in arms on cd, and when carefully listening to each track i found there was a bit of distortion on "ride across the river" at 4:31. Thought there was something wrong with my copy but the version on youtube has the exact same thing there. huh.

No I don’t feel morally responsible for other people’s actions, especially people who lived before I was born.
I think that way, as an ideology, pure madness lies.
It’s as toxic as blaming “the muslim community” for individual terrorist attacks.
Don’t do it, even from the “progressive” viewpoint.

starting this project has started a strange domino effect which has led me to actually start being productive in my free time and become passionate learning for the first time in years. I think I've finally learned how to love life, man
anyways, my latest bad idea is to try to write my own additive synthesizer

thank you suckless.org, for recommending i use nuklear for building a gui in C, has been incredibly enjoyable to work with so far.

there has been no better feeling than making a design decision for this project only to later find that the reference implementation agrees with me fully
i'm trying to get better at using C so i'm writing an interpreter for befunge-93, and a neat feature of befunge is that it makes your programs look like fucking hieroglyphics

I am so furious at YouTube for doing this. You have literal gambling ads plastered across your website. The video you take action on contains no real gambling, and is promoting an LGBTQ+ children's charity fundraiser. Absolutely horrendous image and optics for the website. Completely moronic
I am beyond upset, YouTube has age restricted my video tonight for thinking it depicts real actual gambling. The video is on CloeverPit and contains no real gambling, but does contain a massive charity push for The Trevor Project. Last time this happened I almost quit YouTube
