Vacuum Decay bubble sweeping over our solar system. That sould be straight tits. Its like the “Irish Goodbye” of reality itself. Just poof! And ya outta heeeeeeere!

Far left is actually Dragon Fruit Splash™. Its got electrolytes.

Maybe if I could find a recipe for a simple corn bread without a trilogy worth of lore about the writer’s grandmother, they wouldn’t be in such a predicament. In terms of AI strengths, informational efficiency is paramount. I can think of fewer things I can search for with more worthless gunk tacked to it than a recipe.

That is extremely wholesome. It sounds like she had an amazing kitty life full of attention and care.

It took Penny weeks to get comfortable with me after I broke her out of jail. I’ve been her person ever since. I was kinda worried she would never warm up to me there for a while. Now, I can’t sit down without her jumping on my lap or at least getting an earful about how almost empty her bowl has been for a full 36.25 seconds when I walk in the door. It’s awesome when a cat chooses you as their person. Especially, when they’re adopted as an adult carrying around all the trama and fear they may have learned during the time out in the wilds.

Those ears tho. Little fella can hear what’s going on in the future.

I went with Mint. I’ve read it’s the easiest for beginners. Once I learn more about this new environment, I may experiment with others. I have 3 1T drives in my PC and I have one dedicated for that process whenever I get to that point. Thats the idea anyways.

I switch to Linux 2 days ago and have been enjoying testing my Steam library. So far, everything Ive tested run BETTER in Mint than they did on Win10. Im currently waiting on BG3’s massive 120GB download to complete but I’m looking forward to finally booting it up again.

The Linux community has been so friggin helpful in getting me up and going.

That did it! Thank you so much!

Ill definitely look into this.

I’m installing Mint for the first time at this very moment. So far, it’s easier than I anticipated. Fuck You Microsoft.

Edit: bro, firstly, what the fuck and where did all this performance come from?!?! I vastly underestimated how many resources windows was hogging. I downloaded Steam (easy-peasy) and then Project Zomboid just as a test. This game runs like butter now. I was having major problems with it before. To the point I basically stopped playing. I know its just one example but I haven’t had my machine run this well in several years, I feel. Also, got Spotify running. Super easy. I need to figure out how to get my VPN set up (ProtonVPN) but so far, I’m kind of in shock. I can’t wait to actually dig in and see what I can do with this new setup.

So crazy man. Im really glad I never had kids. Im 40 now and Im just now feeling like I may consider it. No offence to 20 years olds but seeing someone that age with two or three kids blows my mind. I feel like Im just barely old enough to even think about kids.

The only thing it proves is that I’ll use any old screen shot to validate my nonsensical internal dialog.

I misread your post at first. I edit this to simply “Weed and video games, fuck yeah!”

I remember asking my dad why he didn’t watch cartoons anymore when I was a wee little fucker. He said that I wouldn’t like cartoons either when I become an adult. Still waiting, dad. Still waiting.

Exactly. It’s an art in itself. A cross fade was laying the diagonal cuts of two strips onto each other at the seam. Your fade time what the angle of the cut. DAWs visualize that but it used to be an actual cut. Wild times back then. Digital completely took over right after I left college and it’s a shame because there’s something special in there that makes every edit mean something. With no Ctrl-Z, every cut is a commitment.

If you look up pics of old iconic rock master reels, some of those things look like a Frankenstein monster. But once they put it on wax for sale, you’d never know the reels looked like hot garbage.

let’s get you back inside, grandpa. Rub some liniment on those bunions and put you on one of your favorite spaghetti westerns.

I do sound professionally and I originally learned to track on 2" magnetic tape. Our one digital console had something like 24 channels (which was cutting edge at the time) and every channel required a $40k card slotted into this proprietary rack costing god know how much. Now, any cheap laptop can be an audio rig that has basically unlimited channels and enough DSP to basically do anything they want. Nothing like slicing tape with a razor hoping your edit was right. Also, navigating a patch bay that looks like spilled spaghetti to pop a single channel of compression on a track.
