Hey, Netflix!

🖕

Very clickbait-y title just to say the marathon is an arbitrary distance that people care about way too much; myself included.

Hyper Light Drifter.

Not a word in the entire game. Still a masterpiece of storytelling.

“Perfect is the enemy of good.”

Great story! I loved it.

Its not so hard. If you see something you’re not interested in, use the “Not Interested” button in the video options.

If you’re constantly seeing channels you don’t like, use “Don’t Recommend Channel”.

Just rawdogging the algorithm is like speedrunning the path to depression. You have the power to change this aspect of your daily life. A few extra taps here and there can have a massively positive effect on your day-to-day.

Keyword filters and curating your youtube algorithm is your friend.

I love how you said pencil lead instead of graphite

12AX7s are like $45 in Canada right now.

I think most people don’t. I live in a small house with my wife, no kids, and even that gets overwhelming somehow. Some days are just lost to work, cleaning, and maintenance.

We do aim to have at least a couple of days a week where we don’t have to do anything at all. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn’t. When it doesn’t, it doesnt take long for burnout to set in.

The fact that I can simply practice and aim high and slowly crawl my way forward improving technique and skill. (Guitar)

I’m 30+ now and feel just as capable as ever to learn new songs, solos and techniques.

I recorded this video a couple days ago after about an hour of learning the solo from square one. Mind you it’s a solo I’ve been listening to for over 20 years and can hum it like its second nature. Lets just say I started from square two then lol

Nah man. Depressive Suicidal Black Metal has brought me back to reality multiple times. Sometimes leaning into your emotions and allowing them to exist lifts a weight off your shoulder.

DSBM made me feel like I wasn’t alone. It made a big difference. It can be catharsis in its own dark way.

The end of MGS2 was a prophecy.

Idiot is a very strong word to describe this. For a place so typically welcoming of neurodivergence this feels really dissonant in the grand scheme of things.

I get major ick vibes from this particular take on the situation.

That’s really strange. I have an M-Audio 60ish key and a smaller Novation Nocturn MIDI keyboard as well as a Roland electric drum kit and have no issues doing anything over MIDI with them on Linux.

Maybe its worth another try? I don’t need drivers for any of that stuff.

That’s fair. I guess its a lesser of two evils situation. No unlimited internet? Need to buy storage. No storage (OP’s situation) let Steam handle it.

Don’t back up your games. Steam Cloud saves are a thing and if your games drive shits the bed you can just buy a new one and re-download all your games.

Derivative over generative any day if you ask me.

Really? I run my home studio in Nobara Linux without any latency issues. I use Reaper as my DAW. Are you using yabridge?

Have Win 10 and was a Windows die hard since I was a kid.

Been running Linux on another drive as my default boot for a year and a half in anticipation of this horseshit and was only hesitant to delete Win because my Fanatec sim racing hardware wasn’t supported on Linux.

Welp, turns out hid-fanatecff is a thing. Installed the kernel driver and boom, working Fanatec peripherals. Even my Moza shifter is plug-and-play.

Bye bye Microsoft.
