Am I gonna recognize you right away by your name? If you're a demoscener, likely, or you're from one of my past lives.

If not, You _gots_ to give me a reason why you wanna follow.

The issue with this is it creates a false impression that things won't work, so you can't do them, when you could - and you'd get results.

Like having protracker limited to 512m samples, because most machines don't have extra.

When they do.

Yes, check, and if it doesn't, don't try to do it. But if it does, use it.

And yes, I know this is also sort of "people who can afford nice things get better" when taken further, and I _hate_ that. But I also dislike holding people back because others in their group can't keep up. It just hurts the people who could excel for no real reason.

And don't give me "but you could just hardware" - no, no I could not. I grew up poor, and if I damage something and it doesn't work, I can't have another - so I _will_ not do hardware modifications. "You could just pay" - again, poor.

software hacks+++, because they're awesome and enable cool shit.

This here, i3 on a work machine that I can't put wayland on for reasons.

I do reccomend, when folks have time and want to expiriment with the system they're already using (i.e. they know what programs they use and are looking for how to be efficient in handling them when multitasking) testing out a tiled window manager. But know what you use first, and how you use it. Otherwise it's just "why would I ever" (:

@jope @didier @skylark13

Yes, and that's why I think, _IF_ I knew/used it, I was told "no stop that, it's wrong" (:

It just seems like something I would have dismissed because of things like "how2code" from comerade j, which others would say ignore, and ... I was obsessed with having it "correct" and not "just expiriment and have fun"

@didier @skylark13

See mop's explanation below (and, well, why it'll be fully supported in coppershader showdown thingie whatever it is called...)

my brain is very recover from black valley and it's very hot so (:

For those of you interested in #linuxaudio and reading this you might also have heard of https://linuxdaw.org

A site giving an overview over quality audio software available for linux.

Not too long ago a user made a very nice contribution by setting up a mastadon bot that posts new additions (based on the RSS feed).

You can follow the bot here:

Shoutout to @icaria36 for setting this up! Thanks buddy :)

This ... makes no sense to post here but I'm doing it anyway.

So during Black Valley, the talk of the Amiga types was a "discovery" which is apparently known to others, just, um... not. Yeah we don't know how this flew under the radar.

Apparently, on an ECS A500, the fake fast is located at $c0000 (may need another 0.) And that means it's addressble by the _custom chips._ But _NOT_ the CPU.

A> Did you know this
B> insert another question here (I am tired still from the party and it's too hot)

Also we figure we have to ask Haynie about this - I figure there is a Zorro related reason this is as it is.

@skylark13

Old man memory needs help. I'm thinking of a movie with some or mainly cybersec plot, where at one point someone needs access to get into something. They call up someone else detailing the need and proceed to receive an exploit that they're then able to use.

At least, this is what my memory tells me should exist ...

Halp plz. Also, <3 boost for wider attention.

@skylark13

You also read profiles (:

Incoming mutual request coming (:

#calltoaction

Seattle can stop ICE, but city hall won't do it unless we make them.

Every Tuesday at 2pm city council meets, it's time to tell them to Stop ICE.

#StopICE #Seattle #PNW #chingalamigra

Today activists learned that two local immigrants were kidnapped and being held in Tukwila in preparation to be shipped off to an ICE concentration camp.

The community showed up to defend them

📸The Burner Seattle

#Tukwila #ICE #PNW #Seattle

The latest update from comrades on the ground indicate that ICE vehicles eventually forced their way through the protesters, and likely were able to transport the recently kidnapped migrants to the Tacoma ICE prison.

#Tukwila #Tacoma #PNW #WA #ice #chingalamigra

#ALERTA #CallToAction It is verified that tomorrow 7/9/205 ICE plans to carry out mass arrests at Seattle's immigration courthouse!

Bring your signs, your grandma, your black bloc, bring everybody you know to tell ICE to get the fuck out of Seattle 8am to 4pm TOMORROW!

Since the demos on June 10th ICE has been unable to arrest anyone at the court house but tomorrow will test Seattle's resolve.

915 2nd Ave,
Seattle

What, no caltrops. Sad.

@nullagent There's only four of those stinking pieces of shit. They will NOT confront a crowd alone, as they don't want to wrestle on concrete and end up on the bottom of the pile.
