  • The sound from the speakers he must have used was also "analog". Sound - defined as a pressure wave through a medium - can't be digital. Though the difference between analog and digital kinda loses meaning in cases like this.

  • 80s Nostalgia AI Slop Is Boomerfying the Masses for a Past That Never Existed

  • One of my most vivid memories of the 80s was that bullying was absolutely rampant and no one did anything about it. Parents then were just like, "It's part of growing up!"

  • Oh fuck. I saw this and assumed he must be creeping up into his 70s or something. Nope. He's only got a few years on me. Well, a few years, and a significant amount of weed.

  • Battleblock Theater and Noita, but I'm having trouble with controller support for the latter. It doesn't seem to work on Steam Deck when it's docked.

  • Should I eat it and jump to win11?

  • I recently sucked it up and upgraded Windows 10 to 11. Music production is getting better in Linux, but there is still a whole lot of existing music software with no Linux support. Cakewalk for example has no Linux support, and I imagine getting it working in WINE with VSTs and whatever else would be an immense chore. Same story with Ableton.

    That said, if you don't mind migrating to a DAW with Linux support like Reaper, Bitwig, or even Ardour - which is open source and free - producing music with Linux is the easiest it's ever been. Just don't count on Linux support from a lot of VST makers who often require you use their software to install their VSTs. You can usually still install those VSTs, but it sometimes requires less than legal methods, and may be a hassle.

    If you're a producer who mostly just uses a DAW as a recorder for hardware, it would barely be a change to your workflow at all. If you are reliant on Cakewalk and Ableton specific processes and VSTs, it would be much more difficult

  • What are some games with absolutely fantastic soundtracks?

  • I'd watch that

  • Oooh oooh, make it a comedy show where they do it with a low budget, mediocre impersonators of original actors, and zero respect for the source material.

  • Hertz' AI System That Scans for "Damage" on Rental Cars Is Turning Into an Epic Disaster

    Jump

  • Huh? I don't think I've ever used a rental car service that didn't require a credit card. Exactly so they can charge for this sort of thing.

  • What If

  • I mean, if anyone without Trump's money and influence had this many accusations leveled against them, you can be pretty sure they'd be behind bars by now. It's not that the women aren't being trusted, it's that the entire fucking system is broken. Or more accurately, is designed to serve the rich and powerful.

  • Okay why is your distro the best?

    Jump

  • Mint Cinnamon. All my hardware works, and it can do the few things I require my work PC to do. It even remembers things like my default audio device - something Ubuntu refused to do for years.

  • Square Enix acknowledges Expedition 33 success as inspiration for next Final Fantasy as turn-based is still beloved by gamers

  • Yeah. Reacting? Not a problem! Waiting to react? Ohshitohshitohshit!

  • I love the combat! There's nothing more satisfying than learning an enemy's moves perfectly and then getting that juicy 20% experience boost for whacking them without taking a hit. The balance is a bit off sometimes, but when it's on, it's amazing. I finished a long, difficult fight last night with my last character being the only one standing. It was such a cool moment.

    Enemies with huge, super-slow wind ups to their attacks can take a hike, though. If I can accidentally parry four-five times in the time it takes you to wind up your attack, just maybe my character should be preemptively counter attacking, y'know.

  • I thought I saw in very recent patch notes that there was a community-made version of SM2?

  • Zelda 1 seems an odd omission from the supported games. I wonder if some games are harder to implement than others or something.

  • Migrating from Lemm.ee

  • OK! We weren't super active, so it shouldn't be too difficult to just recreate what I had there. I'm happy to see a production community already here. There's understandably a lot of overlap. 😄

  • Cool! Thanks! I'll have a look.
