Yeah I wouldn’t mind trying out Reaper but I’ve only heard bad things when it comes to VST plugins.

So annoying that Steinberg takes their time to port Cubase to fucking Mac but not Linux. And even if I use Reaper, then I can’t use my Focusrite interface properly.

That’s good to know for the future, but I’m currently bound to SolidWorks which supposedly doesn’t run at all on Linux :/

This sounds good, thank you for the hint. Does this also prevent all ai bullshit and recall and stuff?

God I hope there will be a good enough solution for professional audio stuff when Win 10 is done. This and when will the new proper CAD software.

It sucks ass, but I don’t see how one will be able to change to Linux in those spaces on a professional level. All my private stuff is on Linux systems, though.

New GA will get right to it once he’s in office.

The new Billie Eilish album for example. I liked specifically Happier Than Ever and the new one doesn’t catch the same vibe.

Also Rat Wars by Health looked initially exactly like my thing, but fell ultimately flat on the first listen.

Just make him a Deadlock hero alright!

Ah, yeah that might only work with some assistance.

Are there modern mobil cassette players that are worth it? Thought it’s just dropship slop.

Well a 8 mm Rope already can have a minimum breaking load of 50 kN, roughly equivalent of 5 tonne. So if you don’t need to store high lengths of wire rope,.this should be absolutely possible.

Goddammit, we’ve lost another one! Those darn Marijuanas, Lord help us!

Would be great if such claims would generally come with some kind of source. Otherwise people might just not believe that ThatWeirdGuy1001 snorted some marijuanas back in college.

I wonder if this will be the next WW2-scale brain drain like what happened in Nazi Germany.

Just move away and get over with the annoyance.

The fact that you are able to move is a gift of the fediverse.

A few very vocal dumbfucks users of the last months need to be tagged here.

Knowing how stuff is done 100% right and deliberately deciding when something has to be done that way are two different things.

Learn stuff, know stuff, but don’t get bogged down by it.

Best example is graphic design: I used to do everything in vector graphics in Inkscape, all parametric in 1:1 ratio to how it’s going to be printed/presented. Now I go apeshit in pixel graphics in GIMP and it’s so much more useful for a lot of applications, where the goal isn’t as clear cut as let’s say technical drawings; free flowing artsy graphic stuff so to speak.

I know how I’d do it 100% right, but chose not to as the effort increases exponentially for nobody to notice it if that line is completely straight in the corner of a deep fried A4 print of some artwork.

If this is what blows up the facist bromance then I’ll gladly take it.

Those darn triangles!

Depends on the skill level that you are starting on. If your are starting more or less new then I cannot overstate how useful a teacher can be in getting things right from the get go.

Generally speaking you want to start out with training basics like correct breathing and how to create a tone correctly. I’m the end singing is a very physical thing. You learn to use the muscles in your mouth and throat properly.

Also things like hitting the right pitch and rhythm are a thing. Depends if you have a musical background otherwise.

And very important: If something hurts die out after singing, you’re not using the right technique. It will occur that your do things wrong while practising but listen to your body and don’t overdo it.

I can warmly recommend Catherine Sadolin’s Complete Vocal Technique. It is a fantastic book especially if you don’t want to / can’t get a private teacher.

I hope this was somewhat helpful to you, cheers!
