I love making weird sounds, here’s some of my music: https://etherphon.bandcamp.com/
https://soundcloud.com/etherphon
The stuff up there right now is a tad old, but it is some music that deals with my struggles with my realizations about my sexuality and gender, thus some of it is a little difficult and discordant. I’m working on some more joyous music. It’s 100% hardware based (synthesizers, samplers, sequencers, effects), no computer, DAW or AI involved in recording.
I previously joined lemmy under the name etherphon, I was a lot angrier before I made peace with myself so if I made some comment to you or offended you in some way I do apologize.
I love synthesizers, all sorts of music (mostly electronic), b/cult movies, science fiction, DIY, graphics design, PC hardware, retro computing (Commodore <3), cooking, singing.

Absolutely, energy goes where attention flows, if you are out of the moment in spacetime and somewhere else, say if you have been brainwashed or something, and your mind is constantly elsewhere you cannot properly focus your energy, when that happens you can’t properly grow in an organic manner to a fully blossomed human. When that happens en masse, chaos ensues and certainly changes things in the time line, people cannot focus on being their best. I’m not certain if people actually have the power to effect time in that sort of energy sense, perhaps though that all of the tribal ceremonies and gatherings and things like that of the past were not just for having a party. A more metaphysical angle I guess.


Yeah, I would rather that too honestly, it makes a lot more sense, but I suppose my main point was they should be on a separate system than commuters, whatever that may :)


Kind of like how our highways weren’t meant for hundreds of thousands of semi trailers on them every day, but we just keep jamming more fucking trucks on the road. Humans will just overdo something until there is a catastrophic failure, sometimes they keep doing it after that.


lol my first thought as well, shit is China making some new, cheap crack?


Why don’t they just call it the loserverse? We need a nice name like that for it, to shame these losers. Manosphere is wayyyyy too nice.


Tell me about it lol. I’ve got to.


Lol, you know, thank you for reminding me that I never really took a good look at the defaults, I will give it a shot thank you :)


I really want to like GIMP to replace Photoshop which I used extensively on Win but I’m an experimenter and if I can’t do random things without it crashing all the time it’s not going to work for me. I’ve spent a bit of time with it and every time I try to do something I get some strange error message about the undo cache or it will just crash. Maybe I just need to give it a bit more time, the UI and the tools seem fine just the stability. Any ideas?


I guess I would explain it as an agreed upon way of talking to each other, say you decide you want to text, or call, or send a card. A protocol is like that. It’s not the data just the transmission method. A protocol controls the data stream, the hand shaking (when it is OK to start sending data, which port, where to send it). A data packet sent using a protocol is like a letter, with a sender, intended receiver, stamp (signature, key, CRC, etc.).

Haha, well you made it farther than I did, I too liked computers growing up but even though I went and got my A+, Network+, MCSA and all that years and years ago, and then went back to school and got an associates in web development, and then didn’t do anything with that either. OOF. Well good news is now I know why I wasn’t allowing myself to succeed back then, bad news is it’s way too late now for any of that with AI poising to take over everything. I’m kind of glad I didn’t now, kind of, if it wasn’t for the fact I’d actually be financially stable now if I did lol. But life is a journey. I’m actually a bit of a luddite now despite my very early adoption of computers, internet, etc haha. Funny how that works out. Grill sounds great, I love cooking out doors as well, it’s just invigorating :)
AH yeah, I had an older account but I deleted it because I couldn’t resist the urge to make negative comments about the state of things all the time and I’m trying to be more positive so I made a new one. Yeah it’s a bit slow at times but that is kind of refreshing not have to keep up with an endless barrage of stuff ya know.


Sorry, it was a bad day and it appears I took it the wrong way :( I thought you were talking about me personally and not the name as the name was for Don. I’m a bit sensitive atm, apologies too.


Yes I enjoy it here so far, there’s a few hotheads but I guess that can’t be avoided anywhere. People seem genuinely interesting and interested in cool stuff, so it’s really my jam. All that stuff is just so beyond my, interest I guess. I love doing things with computers, making art, editing photos, games, I can make some simple web pages and put them on a host, etc. Fun stuff. Now it’s all… I dunno lol. I never got into phone apps to begin with so I think I was lost from the start. I like computing on a full computer. Honestly any algorithm besides chronological sort is junk to me, like you said it can all be gamed so it’s just all so dumb.


We have some little sparrows that just go in there and motorboat the bird feeder, so there’s plants from the seed growing all over under our feeder haha. No corn though, that is pretty cool!


Soon after, they are pining for the fjords.


Oh gosh well mine was like $5 then lol. Yeah it really doesn’t seem worth it to me but then I live in a totally different economy I suppose.


I wasted so much money on different nootropics over the years, but it was stuff like piracetam, centroxophine, deprenyl, hydergine, stuff that’s actually been tested on people before, and to be honest it would be hard to find a reputable lab nowadays unless you are a legitimate researcher.
Zzzzz.
