Its $60 for a personal/small bussines use and a great daw. Would recommend. But whatever daw works best for you is great too :)

I’m a huge fan of reaper. Nice clean daw for a good price imo. It being cross platform was a bonus. I started making music on Windows and the best part of switching to Linux was that reaper just works after figuring out how the hell to install it lol. Some Linux stuff im ok at but im still figuring things out.

And same here. I’m a self pianist like my grandfather was. I really like addictive keys for playing piano and was happy to see the standalone version works with bottles. But without yabridge setup, i haven’t been able to make much recently.

Ive been looking to find a replacement for addictive keys thats native to Linux or works well at least.

As soon as they announced ads were gonna be in the start menu, i noped out of windows. I only use it for work which doesn’t bother me because im not doing anything private on my work pc.

I switched to Fedora 40 with KDE and never looked back. My only real gripe is with making music. Getting the VSTs to work and setting up yabridge is kind of a headache that i still need to do 😮‍💨 aside from that, Linux has been my daily driver for quite a while now and im happy i switched even though im still learning.

I second this.

I started learning Google app script for work and while its not exactly traditional programming like most folks would do, i can now look at javascript and have a basic understanding of whats going on.

I learned a ot by doing. And with the help of ai, i was able to learn concepts, syntax, the best way to do this or that at least to a degree.

Just trying to make something is the best way. Make a tool to make your life easier. Like if you have a repetitive task that you dont want to do each time, make a script that does it for you.

No fucking way

This is the second time today ive looked something up and found it to be true.

Ah ok, thats pretty cool. I dont do much torrenting anymore cause my internet is not only limited but is kinda slow and unsteady.

Might check that out once im back in civilization with a decent connection. I miss gigabit speeds man.

Yea the real fun is always the set up when selfhosting. Then you look for the next project lol.

Im not familiar with gluetun, is that what you’re using to download tracks or something?

I personally really liked using jellyfin and finamp. Both were pretty great once i figured out how to set it up lol.

The issues i had were due to my lack of knowledge and trying to set things up to use it outside of my home network. Jellyfin itself was great as was finamp when i used them.

Oh so its not just me who thinks its gotten worse then. I was starting to go a little crazy man. It seems like its slowly gottwn worse over time. I wonder if its due to the amount of ai content messing up seo ratings or something

GTA Online’s latest event is called Bottom Dollar Bounties and focuses on letting players live that Dog the Bounty Hunter life in Los Santos, but it also adds the new Vinewood Club app to in-game phones.

This app “lets you easily request vehicles, claim all outstanding business safe earnings, and replenish ammo on your in-game phone.” Collecting cash from your businesses in GTA Online has always been a bit of a pain, and being able to do it from your phone instead is obviously a massive improvement. The catch, of course, is that it’s only available to GTA+ subscribers paying $8 a month (thanks, GamesRadar+).

Shocked i tell you. I am shocked.

No way an app would collect data it doesnt need. Preposterous.

Next thing you’ll tell me is that tiktok is doing the same thing!

Something like a chromecast would be the easiest solution.

Me personally, I just like having a media pc hooked up to my tv. I bought an amazon fire tv cause it was fairly cheap for 4k and its never been hooked up to the internet.

Absolute blasphemy.

How else will i have left over rice for fried rice if I make just enough?

Well now im very jealous lol. Good for you man, thats a banger deal.

I specifically buy easy dinner stuff while.im out shopping for the same reason. I spent an hour getting food so now imma take it easy and eat this mac and chicken strips from the deli.

88 x 8TB drives? 704 TB of storage?

You got a whole damn data center lol. Good stuff dude. Was this off of ebay or direct from a company? I’m curious to know the total cost.

This minute change won’t make any difference to Windows 11 users today. All modern systems that support Windows 11 already have SSE 4.2. In fact, SSE4.2 has been around for nearly 20 years, and almost every processor has supported it for just as long. The only users potentially affected are tinkerers and enthusiasts who are trying to mod Windows 11 to run on incompatible hardware.

I actually kind of vibe with this. I don’t think its depressing, sounds uplifting to me.

Bout time. Ticket master has been ruining venues and driving up ticket prices for years: https://www.cbs58.com/news/ticketmaster-accused-of-running-underground-ticket-scalping-project-to-drive-up-prices

Im pretty happy but due to ADHD im never really satisfied with what i have currently in a sense.

I’m very grateful for my job, my current living situation and my partner but im always looking forward to new projects and stuff that i wanna do. I finish one thing and i really like that and then i move onto the next thing cause i feel like i have to. Just cant sit still for too long.

How it happened is i just got lucky. I got a good family that helped me with a place to live, my buddy helped me get my current job in an IT adjacent position, and i met my gf on tinder when she was just about to leave the app for good.

So yea, just kinda got lucky. I do work hard too and struggled alot with ADHD and other mental health issues before getting diagnosed so im glad things worked out eventually.
