Also, like Rule34, if you think of Tom Hollands' lipsink performance, you have to watch and post it. So it's that time again to get out your umbrella. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jPCJ...

Thanks to Tom Holland in a corset, I now know more about storm water management. Sometimes the internet is great.

Think I've got the mounting panel design for my zynthian clone finished. I still need to hook up the four buttons on the bottom and design/print some knobs for the encoders, but after that it's just assemble the housing and I've got ablittle mobile music making station.

The absolute fight to not laugh before he says space always f cking kills me.

Snakes are some the absolute goodies animals sometimes.

It's quite small, and the graphic Valve has on the steam page for it is one of my favorite things of the whole launch. Banana for scale.

“I want you to understand, regardless of your politics, the historical danger of a secret police…I want you to understand that every issue you care about—any hope of participatory democracy—is downstream of this.” Please read this whole thing. Before you keep scrolling. And then please share it.

AT&T reps just came to my door to sell me their phone service. I think by the end of it I had the three of them convinced to switch their personal service to mint. There is legit no comparison between price and quality of service with mint to anything else.

Pretty enthused. I got inspired to make my own pocket field notes journal. Just 12 sheets of printer paper cut into 4.5" tall pages, folded in half, then sewn together with a popyart box cover using a leather working needle and some waxed thread. It took me maybe 20 minutes #diy #fieldnotes #journal

I cant believe it, but 1 month later, and I've basically got the entire song down. Some parts are still a little sloppy, but I've got it. The part I thought I'd never be able to play I've got down solid. AND the tabs online are wrong, so had to figure out from the live video with my instructor.

I went roller skating for the first time in years. Really enjoyed it and thought it'd be a great new activity to get into to exercise and socialize. Bought skates, but they were kinda shit, bought and installed new wheels and bearings. Have never gone skating again......

Trying to make a midi quantized looper pedal with the hothouse daisy seed pedal. It's both going well and not well. I can now read midi notes in, but for some reason it prints as garbage, and I can't read in the Midi Time Code in to get the bpm at all.

Sitting at work, get a notification, and this is all I see.

Insurance open-enrollment is such absolute bullshit. My Ex and I are still on each other's insurance. My companies open-enrollment is Oct27-Nov7, theirsnis Nov4-Nov20. So we have 4 overlapping days to make sure we can get together and make an educated decision on our insurance. Bullshit.

I have been to 4 concerts in the last 11 days. I have another one tonight and an all-day concert/swapmeet tomorrow, with possibly another concert tomorrow night. It's all very fun, but I'm tired, and work is dragging really badly. I need a nap.

IDEA: Nu-metal band about corporate culture named NVA. Non-Value Added

Almost got myself in trouble. I was following the Zynthian V5 schematic, but didn't realize that it uses the QFN footprint, I'm using the DIP package, and they have a VERY different pinout. I thankfully thought to verify the data sheet with the schematics before I started soldering chip connections.

well this a project that absorbed way more time than I planned. mcp23017 and encoders to control raspberry pi running #Zynthian. turns out the only solid core wire I had on hand was just red or 0.1mm magnet wire. but it's 99% done. just need the ground bus, but thats tomorrow's problem.

pretty happy with this. 100% mobile ##Zynthian based guitar jam setup. (video w/ sound in comments) ##guitar

I'm still learning Snakes for the Divine by High in Fire, and I've got the main riffs down, but fucking hell that solo is FAST! I can play the first bit at speed, the next bit at about 70% and then I'm out. Gonna keep trying though. (solo starts at 3:39) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNs5BavI-wk

I love low selling things pepurposed for sale. I guess someone needed to unload some Christmas nutcracker so they made them into headless horsemen.

Super happy with the motivation just one guitar class has given me. I learned all of the rhythm guitar parts for The Trooper, the beginning of Blackwater Park, and the lead solo for Snakes for the Divine(at like .2 speed)

oh interesting. Found an android app that can do both bluesky and mastodon, and apparently allows me to post to both simultaneously. its named fread.

I've been playing guitar for 30+ years but still feel like a beginner. I'm over it. So I've finally found a guitar tutor and I'm so excited! But also, my brain is stupid. I've got this weird imposter syndrome feeling like I'm both not good enough and too good to get a teacher. Like, wtf brain. Why?

At time of posting this still works

Thou shalt not let a racist fascist rapist pedophile become a dictator and ruin all your lives.

A half dozen armed goons brutally attacked a man FOR EATING IN PUBLIC?

I'd love to make physical art, but that shit takes up SPACE! Can't even buy new art, I already have so many prints and paintings leaning against walls waiting for frames and room on a wall. Anytime I have an idea for a sculpture or painting I always just go, "but where the hell am I gonna put it!?"

Alright, #3dprinted pedal board is complete. Had to make half size plates for the skinny pedals. And mounts for the psu underneath. Managed to plug everything back together correctly on the first try. #guitar #diy

Doctor I can't subscribe to Pagliacci_Clown_Feet, I am him, those are MY feet!

Listening to coworkers talk about copilot and it sounds like working with someone with vision deterioration. They remember what things look like, they look at the fuzzy outlines and guess, but they're also people pleasers so they're trying to guess what you want, also their parents were racist.

I guess battlefield 6 is releasing today and requires secureboot be enabled. all my friends in the ryanmeetup group chat struggling to get it working, calling family IT cause their computers hard locked up, having to pull cmos batteries. I've said it before and I'll say it again. EA can burn.

Ball Pit with a bar.

This thing is a crazy nightmare fuel awesome and I love it.

Also, as someone who's just getting into making industrial music and building a sample library, there are a TON of things available on @archive.org Sample packs people have made, horror movie sound tracks, advertisements, speeches, numbers stations, etc. archive.org/details/the-...

This is absolutely amazing. An archive of all of the old myspace music from the early 2000's. Just another great reason to donate to @archive.org Search for "The Myspace Archive Project" on the Internet Archive. archive.org/details/mysp...

I think one of the more entertaining things since I've been messing with my beatstep pro, zynthian, and synth vsts is now when I hear synth music I'm like, "I wonder what they used to make that" or "hmm, I bet I can recreate that in Vital". Anyways, I keep accidentally playing Depeche Mode melodies.

Discovered the #Zynthian Raspberry Pi based groovebox, so I get to use all my favorite linux synths/instruments in a stand-alone device. The amount of work that has gone into the software/UI for this thing is basically, as far as I've experienced nearly unheard of for an open-source hardware project

San Diego #NoKings

Hell yea. Jamming out and learning to play AMBROSIUS by Gnome all evening today. Can play everything at full speed except the solo. Still getting that thing down at half time, but thoroughly enjoying it. youtu.be/EE-LD2EcASo?...

Spent a week in Ireland and a week in Scotland. Had an absolute blast. Fantastic countries. Gained 15lbs(6.8kg). Last day I seem to have caught a chest cold, so now I'm trying to work from home, but I'm sick and jetlagged and just want to sleep.

In Dublin. Just did the Guinness tour, but now I have to work remotely the rest of the day because I don't have enough PTO for my whole trip

Ticket purchased!

I really need to write down all applications and process when I figure out a good method to do something. I had my full CD ripping and musicbrainz process down, but I just wiped my OS and installed a new distro, and now I'm coming back to ripping my CDs and don't remember what software I landed on.
