Skyrim, babyyyyy!

most apps won't work.

You need to do everyone a favor and stop spreading this nonsense. It's absolutely false. Every app I've installed on my phone works fine, including banking apps. I use cards to make payments instead of NFC. That's literally it.

I'm tired of people painting ROMs and Linux as if you have to step into the stone age if you want to use them, as if it's a massive inconvenience.

If having to use cards to pay is enough of an inconvenience for people to rather lick Google's boot... I don't even know what to say.

I mean... If there's any possibility of recovery on the table then you've got a hell of a lot to lose. 400k is life-changing money.

Saw Chainbrain's video on this. Looks super promising!

There's a steam plant for my local hospital about 300m from my house. When I'm in my basement trying to record drums, I can audibly hear when the plant is running. Super low, sub-50hz hum. It gets into all my mics.

Fortunately my bedroom is on the second floor of the house so the resonance doesn't keep me up at night.

I'm glad they re-made the worst entry in the early era of the series and didn't fuck with Sons of Liberty. That game is literally perfect. MGS3 is tedious AF. Still fun and better than a lot of games, but massively overhyped. Also, worst fucking camera system in the history of gaming in the original PS2 version. Truly atrocious.

I hope it turns out well, but I still doubt that I'll play it.

Yeah, I was there for pre-2000 internet. It was cool back then too. I just remember 2010 as the last era where the internet still felt fun. That's all gone now.

Anything to do with the internet. I'd go back to 2010 in a heartbeat.

[–] AstralPath@lemmy.ca 4 points 9 months ago

Those are the best games in the series IMO. Sons of Liberty is a prophetic masterpiece.

I agree that they deserve what they get, but there needs to be some restriction to defense so that someone who has no intent on confrontation doesn't get their fucking head blown off or smashed in.

You shouldn't be able to just intentionally kill someone because they're in your home, but if they don't leave immediately, you should be able to royally fuck them up beyond belief until they decide to bail. If they've got a weapon and they don't leave within 5 seconds of you catching them in the house, that's a different story.

At that point it should be safe to argue that you were in mortal danger and exacted equal punishment to the invader that they intended to inflict on you. If they don't leave immediately after being caught, they make a conscious choice to remain in the face of danger. The problem I see is that if someone carrying a weapon in your home is beaten and let go, there's a chance they hold a grudge against you and come back to exact vengeance.

You shouldn't have to move and abandon your home just because some fucking degenerate is butthurt about having their ass beat. If they leave without a fight, let them leave. If they stay while you've got a bat or a golf club in your hand, you should have full license to revoke their right to personal safety. This is just my opinion.

I love my wife more than anything and the thought of someone even threatening her by breaching into our home while she's there would make it very difficult to remain sane in the moment. I think it would be foolish to treat that as anything other than a mortal threat.

Hell yeah! The boys are back.

 

Hey everyone,

Not sure I've seen this particular technique before.

Here's a tutorial on how you can use REAPER's stock gate plugin to generate MIDI that you can send to an EQ to modulate frequency bands to eliminate bleed in your drum tracks. This is super powerful on toms.

Inspired by the FabFilter Pro-MB bleed reduction tricks.

This is an all instruments/vocals scratch-made cover of the track that got me into Black Metal. A truly iconic masterpiece of atmosphere. I always wanted to do a cover of this track. I'm very happy with how this turned out.

Thanks to Yabridge (https://github.com/robbert-vdh/yabridge) I was able to record, mix, and master this entirely on a Linux system (Nobara) running Reaper with stock Reaper plugins, many FOSS plugins, and a couple choice paid plugins; namely GGD Invasion and Sketch Cassette II. Everything else was free or open source by choice.

Hey folks, I'm hoping to find French Youtube channels to subscribe to based on the topics above. I don't get to engage much with French and I'm trying to maintain my ability to understand it and speak it. I figured if I inject some french content into my Youtube algorithm that would be very helpful.

Any recommendations would be appreciated. :)

 

...in what proximity would you have to be to the sun and how fast would you have to be spinning (like a rotisserie chicken) so that your light side didn't burn and your dark side didn't freeze; rotating just enough to keep a relatively stable temperature?

Absolutely absurd, I know but this question somehow popped into my head and won't leave. 😆🐔🔥🧊

 

[EDIT] Inb4 more people try to suggest that I'm mourning the loss of this scumbag capitalist fuck: No, I'm not sad he's dead. No, I don't think corporate murder is acceptable and no, I would not ever rat to police if I knew the shooter and yes, I believe the punishment fits the crimes he's committed against untold thousands of people. THAT SAID...

I'm not down with vigilante murder or anything because it seems like the slipperiest of slopes toward chaos, but what other option is there in a situation where someone seeks to make an impact in this way? You can't just beat up evil CEOs and let them go back to work. It would be naïve to expect them to change their ways when faced with consequences for their actions and then promptly let go. It just seems like the chances that it emboldens their penchant for exploitative behaviour and disdain for people in need are too high.

We're just born into and strapped to this capitalist ride and expected to sit quiet and make these leeches their billions. How else can this cancerous greed possibly be dealt with? Is vigilante murder the only effective option? Honest questions. I'm terribly conflicted and I'm genuinely curious what more reasonable and intelligent minds than mine think about this because I can't think of an alternative to murder in this case.

Ideally, we wouldn't have to resort to vigilante killings to level the playing field but I 100% understand that we don't live in a society where the rich will ever give a fuck about the rest of us or would ever sacrifice their power over us in the name of goodwill.

 

Real therapy cat vibes.
