Lmao I thought of Allegro Common Lisp at first.

It’s quite obvious that it’s very different to use it as a verb and as a noun to refer to someone.

Signs like this make me sad

Vowsh

I remember reading that this is because studios don’t compress game assets any more. I’d gladly trade a few seconds load time for reasonable disk usage.

Yeah, I think most people are morbidly curious. I’m in your camp and actively avoid everything I can, but I know people who know that stuff like that is really bad for their mental health, yet cannot help themselves but to seek it out (not a moral judgement, just a description).

That sucks. I’ll have to watch my usage of this term, or at least use it in circumstances where it’s clear that it’s not meant to critique leftism. Surely there’s gotta be some new term now, though? The term is quite old at this point, and comes from a very specific situation where it was clearly one authoritarian side, which was criticized from the left using the term tankie. I think someone ought to have come up with an apt term to describe authoritarian “”“communists”“” today.

I have genuinely only seen tankie used by anarchists and libertarian socialists generally. Didn’t even know that liberals knew of the term. :/

Also, when I have rain clothes, I love rain, so I think you’re on to something.

Ayy, I read the book back in elementary school! Might be time to re-read it as I remember enjoying it.

Yep, this is the daily routine of a Linux user.

lemmy(grad).ml has their own

I think the comparison with Lemmy is moot, since Lemmy (or the Fediverse as a whole) isn’t owned by one centralized entity. Twitter quite literally has a Nazi as its owner. Sure, progressive people still have tools at their disposal to be able to use Twitter, but I think it makes sense to question why we should use such a platform.

Happy to help! Have fun!

Seems to have an ALSA UCM configuration since 2022: https://github.com/alsa-project/alsa-ucm-conf/issues/220

If I’ve understood this correctly, it should just work, and PipeWire should understand the interface.

If you’re interested, I have a good experience with yabridge for running Windows VSTs in Linux-native DAWs. If it’s the applications themselves, then I have no experience. I ran the FL Studio demo in Wine for a few minutes but that’s essentially the end of my experience, since I have Reaper.

I guess I mostly agree, though, I disagree that it isn’t acknowledged. From what I see, piracy oftentimes is explicitly precisely just because people want something for free (myself included tee-hee).

The preservation argument has gotten a lot more prevalent, and I agree that there are a lot of people who use that as a justification for pirating while not actually working to preserve the media they pirate, but I at least see far more people who don’t justify it at all. Not that they have to, IMHO.

What’s missing in PipeWire for it to be “pro audio”? Genuine question, since I’ve been making some music casually and heard from music producers that it’s actually quite good.

THANK YOU SIBLING! I REALLY MISSED THE PACK AND IM SO HAPPY TO BE BACK
