2·8 months agoThis is a CEO who shares opinions on many things he is truly uninformed on.
51·8 months agoI recently switched from Linux Mint to Ubuntu Studio. Both are fantastic and intuitive. Ubuntu Studio just has more of the Linux audio configuration worked out by default.
Reading Connected Places and being reminded that the Fediverse is truly one of the greatest technical-social innovations in recent history. And we get to be part of it :)
I listened to the whole audiobook in a day - one of the best books I’ve purchased recently. As someone who has been very much into the techno-futurists over the last 15 years, I would suggest this book, along with Manu Saadia’s Trekonomics for a much needed reality-check.
1·1 year agoLove it! I’ve saved a copy, because I think it’ll make future explanations a lot easier. Thanks!
Initially I did yeah, but eventually learned that different people use it differently. So good practice to never assume sarcasm through emojis unless you know the person well
2·2 years agoYeah ReNoise is great! Though since I’ve transitioned to a full-FOSS workflow, I now use OpenMPT as my main, and Furnace for Game Boy specific tracks.
I’ve listed my main tools here if you’re interested: https://johnoestmannmusic.com/tooling/
Will do! Wait, you know flight_school from somewhere? :o
Try an uncensored version, because everyone knows Communists hate Hexadecimal /s
Yeah agreed - anything not FOSS is just setting up another bad situation waiting to happen

Appreciate it! The last audiobook I picked up from Libro is Kara Swisher’s “Burn Book”. Not sure if it’s your thing, but was totally worth it for understanding more personal context around the big Tech CEOs from the last 25 years.
Yeah I’m super keen, but my lower-tier Samsung isn’t supported. I really wish FairPhone would offer a cheaper option :(
Is this Club Penguin?
All the good stuff still exists (and there is more of it, in fact). But it is no longer the mainstream. The popular discourse is always around what is happening on the major platforms, but there is constantly great creativity happening over at Neocities and MakerTube, just to name a couple platforms. Hell, even YouTube and TikTok have amazing stuff happening on them. It’s just not the top-viewed content.
One of the best things you can do is stop using algorithmic recommendations for a few weeks. Download the Unhook plugin for YouTube, etc. Then you actually choose the internet media you are exploring.
