100% this. I found the book “The Gifts of Imperfection” by Brene Brown to be very helpful with mentally working through this. I still feel guilt occasionally but knowing that I am the way I am and that guilt does not provide a productive resolution to the “problem” typically is enough to pull me through.
I believe it is a peanut butter alternative.
Thank you for pointing this out! I was using Memmy because it was first on the App Store but have since switched back to Mlem (which I did beta for). It is a hell of a lot more fresh on features!
I’m really pleased with mine. I figured out if you use nickelmenu it is possible to have the games too! That is the only way I have found to access them. For some reason Kobo isn’t making them accessible even with devmodeon enabled.
I upgraded from an Aura H20 Edition 2 so I notice a distinct upgrade in speed and function. I hope you like yours as much as I like mine!
After having a terrible experience with an Onyx Boox Palma breaking within 24 hours of receipt…I’m glad I rage bought a Kobo Libra Colour lol.
I am an IT nerd so I use Linux to learn more about the OS and programming. This was the original reason and still is the reason I keep a Linux machine on hand. Current machine is a dual-boot LG Gram running Windows 11 (wanted to keep the original OS so just shrunk it) and Arch Linux. It runs on Arch 90% of the time. Really only boot the windows partition to use it for work.
I’m not certain they are referring to the game of patience (typically Klondike) or the fact that clock solitaire is rough statistically…1% win rate.
My first experience with installing Linux on a hard drive involved wiping the wrong hard drive (my dad’s) and installing on it. Then panicking when Windows 95 didn’t boot up. Thank goodness my dad was understanding lol.
Looks like clock solitaire. https://www.thesprucecrafts.com/clock-solitaire-rules-412468
I purchased the bundle and so far have been playing Spring Falls, Pixross, Beglitched, and Shutter Stroll. I am enjoying all of those.
To me, brain fog feels like my thoughts are swimming in the subconscious ocean and it takes a lot of energy to dive down and actually comprehend them. It isn’t that the thoughts do not exit, but rather that they are outside of reach of use until significant mental effort is undergone to reach them. Using those thoughts for any purpose then requires even more mental energy…energy that feels like the mental equivalent of walking up the stairs…it seems easy for the first few steps but progressively gets harder until at some point, if you haven’t used the thoughts yet, you just give up out of sheer exhaustion.
Thanks for this. Added to book to my to read list. I have unmedicated ADHD (cannot tolerate meds for it) and this resonated with me. It is also a good reminder that even people that seem like they are intentionally not doing the work or task at hand might have some reasoning behind not doing it! It is easy to forget sometimes that I am not alone in my struggles and other reasons for being “lazy” exist.
You are bringing back bad retail days memories lol
The fact that the hacker said “thank you, take care” is just hilarious to me.
Yeah I think it is the EUV that is considered a crossover.
Chevy currently has 8 models of SUV/crossovers in the US. Bolt, Trax, Trailblazer, Equinox, Blazer, Traverse, Tahoe, and Suburban. That is the closest I can think of.
A lot of what the person interviewed is saying is very tone deaf. Not everyone has the problem of not being “right sized” in how they live…a lot of folks are barely scraping by and have no other option but to tap into retirement to do things like…pay medical bills, not lose their dwelling, or simply make it through a hard time. Are there folks living above their means? Sure! But I would say the vast amount of people cashing in retirement funds early are not those people.
Evade the Eye. Excellent guitar work, good songwriting. Genre: instrumental prog metal
This was an unofficial loaner that was for sale as a used car by the dealer…so they were actively trying to sell it.
I once had a loaner from a dealer that was a Dodge Caliber. Ugly as sin and the transmission was definitely on its way out. That car was just a struggle. It was a reminder why I will never buy a Chrysler product.
1998 US with fender lace golds in neck and middle…Seymour Duncan of some sort in the bridge. Plays and sounds a dream! Color is Plum Purple Metallic. Here it is next to my Jazzmaster.
Found a great deal at a used gear shop…actually a new unit open box. Digging the workflow and vibe. Already recorded a few tracks with it!
I haven’t touched my Tele or Les Paul since I got this. So versatile and sexy to boot!
Upgraded from a Squier. Lucked out with a used AC4 combo too. It is just a MIM but perfect for me. Plays well, very sweet Tele tone, and hopefully inspires me to get past the basic skills I have at the moment on guitar.
A technique used by everyone from Tangerine Dream to Skrillex, wavetable synthesis adds new dimensions of texture and movement to your sound design. But how does it work?
The UNO Synth PRO X features a dual-filter, 3-oscillator paraphonic design, 256 presets, a 64-step sequencer and more.
Looks like an interesting idea. I like the daisy chain option. Analog, portable, and $500. Not bad. Curious what you all think?
Picked up this little guy last week and have already cleared the presets and started making my own. Any tips or fun stories about Microfreaks?
Announced in 2021, the Korg Gadget VR, the virtual reality version of their popular music production app is now available.
I’ve used this on the Switch and it is pretty neat. It would be pretty awesome if the VR implementation is good enough!
CME iWA (instant wireless audio technology) is a new tech that promises near-zero latency using wireless audio (Bluetooth)
Wonder how this idea will be long term? Losing come cables would be awfully convenient for those who perform or have smaller spaces especially.
Which one? For the sake of theoretical questions …let’s assume you could have any synth…not just what you already own.
There are signs that Soundspot, the developer company of numerous synth, FX, and mixing/master plugins, is out of business.
Sounds like they are goners. Hope they didn’t have your favorite plug-in or at least you have the installer still!
The new synths address the most common complaints people had with the original opsix, adding a robust all-metal design; a premium 61-note keyboard, with aftertouch; expanded 80-voice polyphony and …
Oh shiny new FM synths! Who has an original opsix? I hear good things.
CV/Gate, DCB, USI, UMI and The Oberheim System… This is the story of how synth’s biggest players narrowly averted a standards war and made sweet music together
Fascinating how this developed! I hadn't even thought about the history of it.
Korg today announced three new keyboards in its wavestate line: the wavestate SE, wavestate Limited Edition Platinum, and wavestate mkII.
And...I just bought a mk1....
Like the original, the Behringer 1630 is designed to shift the entire frequency spectrum of the source signal from -5 to +5 kHz. Using small shifts, it can create subtle stereo effects, while at la…
Another Moog knock off! Behringer is bringing in the heat.
German synthesist Hainbach let us know about his new sound library, Nuclear Drum Loops, that features drum loops processed with vintage nuclear research gear.
Now this is fascinating! Wonder who will use this one a hit album?
So much more floor space! Also thinking about a Jaspers stand…anyone have opinions on them?
The physics-based Anukari is all about generating sound from interconnected masses and springs held in 3D space and then giving them a good whack.
This looks intriguing. Wonder what sort of graphics card will be needed to run this when it hits production?
Native Instruments has announced that it is dumping the Soundwide brand, announced in April of 2022 as the parent company for NI, iZotope, Plugin Alliance, Brainworx and Sound Stacks.
More acquisitions. Curious if they will integrate the different systems.
Does this mean we’ll get a Moog synth with MPC pads on it?
Curious if this is good or bad. What do you think?
