@polykit Hey Jan Long time no talk! My life has led me in a pretty similar direction these days, and your Patreon has really made me smile of late. My website www.hurt-synthisis.com should launch in the fall with my first eurorack units. There will be four at launch followed by a Hybrid digital analog desktop Q!-Q2 2026, and then the second wave of four to six more eurorack should hit. anyway. I was about to order a bunch or your eurorack. on patreon, so can Iget a discount code pretty please!

@CyReVolt ooops! Cool fabric, but that was for my sister in law.... here is your link lol...

Rust developers offered $20k for rav1d to reach C performance

The folks behind Rust-based AV1 video decoder rav1d are looking for developers to get it running as fast as its C-based cousin, dav1d.

@CyReVolt Hey you guys have oreboot running on a v3s? I was thinking about slapping some flash on my lichee pi zero from a few years ago and giving it a whirl? How are things? certainly better or more optimistic than here currently 🤦 anyway. much love. much to work on. got a new Esp32p4 plaything with a bunch of peripherals otw, so I'll let you know what i get up too.
election has me pretty busted up... feeling kind blue(moreso). Starting a business though! nothing there yet, but I'm seeking input from all free thinking Synth Designers out there. What do you want? I'm planing on launching with a Eurorack Voice(ANALOG), a couple of utility/randoms, and then one or two desktop synths, probably a super digital mini offering with great I/O, and a preoper desktop unit which will be hybrid and super patchable/eurorack compatible. Keyed instruments are eventual...
OH My... I put Non-Binary on my State ID for the first time in 40+ years. That feels pretty cool. Thanks @georgetakei for making sexuality something fun to figure out, not something else I'm afraid of. Thanks to my wife, for marrying her flamboyant husband, and loving him more for his queer. We are weird and Beautiful, and I wouldn't have it any other way. #truelove #challenges #diyromance #thereisnomanual
Been Really struggling with finding my creative spark in any kind of organized way; and when I build kits I'm failing. What is going on!?!?! Impostor syndrome hitting me hard!. Built a really nice little digital VCO for eurorack one day that come out far better that I could have hoped(again Hagiwo, dude is prolific!), and then moved on to my next build. A 3340 VCO, smd looks great, but nothing works. I had to work myself up to even attempt it, so this is a blow to my confidence. HELP!!!

In light of the Internet Archive losing its appeal to hachette, I just wanted to point out some websites you should avoid:

* https://annas-archive.li/
* https://downmagaz.net/
* https://ebook-hunter.org/
* https://forcoder.net/
* https://freemagazines.top/
* https://liber3.eth.limo/

If you were to download books from these websites, you might cut into hachette's more than three billion dollars of annual revenue. So make sure to avoid those websites and the following:

* https://libgen.is/
* https://oceanofpdf.com/
* https://pdfroom.com/
* https://pdfstop.com/
* https://pdfdrive.to/
* https://pdfmagazines.club/
* https://sci-hub.se/
* https://singlelogin.re/
* ... or any of the other sites listed at https://rentry.co/megathread-books

Who has got some spare boards/panels they want to gift/trade me? I'm cash poor, but I have a few pcb/panel sets I can trade both in #Eurorack and desktop #Synth format. most of what I have is pretty cool, definitely easy to make it your own on some modules via modifying the firmware(which is easy pie). Please reach out! I need some #SynthDIY in my life right now. #Make #Synthesizer #Music #Diy #PCB #imadethis
