Absolutely no reason you should have to give up playing if you don't want. Consider jamulus.io, software that since the pandemic, I've been using to play/make/create music with new and old friends online from the comfort of my home. Think way glorified zoom/teams but *proper* stereo audio, clean, tasty, fun and just so much vibe and energy.
We're 1000% better than this now, but consider this video recorded what, must be 2.5 years ago now. We've subsequently written tons of new music, some of us having never met in-person, all using this software. youtu.be/WjmXZ5DLJ2E
In this short video, you'll hear a jam with some friends of mine which is entirely unplanned, not rehearsed, not pre-recorded and was just to prove that this...
@FreakyFwoof Who said anything about giving up music? I'm just thinning the herd, and still plan on wanking at home. I don't need a dozen bases cluttering up the bedroom to do that. A short, medium, and full scale should suffice.
Ahaahh good, I just couldn't stand by and watch if someone felt like they had to delete their entire life, you see? My bad. Musician-first mindset here :)
But equally, my fear was that after pandemic, I'd never gig again so I saw your post and was kinda musically triggered. I found my way out of it and yeah.
Let me post this again, because it's great to see that a privacy and security minded company like @Tutanota takes the daunting arrival of quantum computing very seriously.
They're working on the first consumer post quantum encrypted cloud storage service. A timely anticipation on this development is very important since encryption (which is secure now) will be broken in a matter of seconds once quantum computers will be used for hacking. #PqEncryption #QuantumComputing
Hey, @Tutanota, could we have custom time periods for event reminders, please?
I'd really love to get a reminder exactly 2.5 hours before an event, but currently, I can only choose between 30 minutes, 1 hour and 1 day. Also, the earliest reminder is 1 week before the event, so there's no way to have #Tutanota remind me a couple weeks before someone's birthday to buy a present…
Allowing a custom number before the noun shouldn't be too hard, I think ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Neighbors along 86th St in Overland Park lined the street with extension cords, connecting one house to the next sharing power as crews worked to restore it.
Adam Conover's activism has been refreshing to see during the writer's strike: not just picketing the studios but educating the public about what a union does and how a strike works at the same time. It's also fun to hear about other entertainers I admire working hard to support the picket lines. #Laborjacobin.com/2023/07/adam-conov…
During the ongoing Hollywood writers’ strike, comedy writer Adam Conover has been a constant presence on picket lines and on social media, explaining what’s at stake for strikers and how the union plans to win. We spoke to him about the strike.
I got bored and ran the script of a scam call I got through Eleven Labs. Then I got more bored and ran it through @shaysters 's cloned voice. Then I got more bored, started playing with the settings, and... it... did this.
@nolan LOL. I used V2 of the model, which is in alpha. That adds a slider for "exaggeration." I set that in the middle at 0.5. There is also a voice clarity checkbox, which I unchecked. Default (0.75) similarity and 0.2 for veriability. Not sure where the noise is coming from though! Maybe it is from the sample itself? I should check I guess. Hey Shay you should give me more samples!
@BorrisInABox I believe so? There is an alpha experiment for Projects which is their editor for longer text, but they seem to use it as a gateway for all their alpha experiments and V2 is one of them. I don't have the link handy but it is in their discord, can grab it later. But I think they rolled it out to everyone by now? I am on the creator tier but I don't think that is necessary?
So, I've decided to drop this giant non-enshittified Python course out there for your ongoing amusement. github.com/dabeaz-course/pytho….
It's the same course I took on a decade-long world tour of corporate training. Some people who took it went on to do dumb things like land rovers on other planets and stuff. Anyways, enjoy!
Nearly every Android phone or tablet now has a fingerprint sensor to improve security and productivity. But have you ever been curious about how fingerprint sensors work and whether you really need to set up on your Android device? We have an article for you accessibleandroid.com/how-fing…
@Tusky Might there be a problem with image processing in newer Tusky test builds? This post has an image where the text is not as readable as the other calckey original, which was actually smaller.
I haven't yet looked into this but I read something about an auto installer. And well if you go the Git route, it shouldn't be extremely difficult really.
I need a Chrome extension that removes all emojis from a page with one keystroke. Do they really need an emoji before every feature? Insidious. @FreakyFwoof @BorrisInABox

Miliony e-mailů určených členům americké armády za poslední roky skončily v Mali kvůli tomu, že autoři místo armádní koncovky „.mil“ omylem uvedli malijskou doménu „.ml“. irozhlas.cz/zpravy-svet/armada…
Autoři místo armádní koncovky „.mil“ omylem uvedli malijskou doménu „.ml“. Problém je o to vážnější, že správa domény „.ml“ přechází zpět do rukou malijské vlády, která má blízko k Rusku.
The Membership Committee (MC) at The Document Foundation is responsible for managing membership applications and renewals. The primary objective of their task is to carefully evaluate applications from individuals who want to become members of TDF.
@vicorva has successfully funded their sequel to Books & Bone for a second entry in the Tombtown series about a town of underground (literally) necromancers! veocorva.xyz/books/the-beautif… Veo is very hard at work to finalize the book in print & ebook formats, and if you judge the book by its lush cover by @dona it will be a breathtaking offering indeed. #AltTextCoverDay
Brave Browser continues to be sketchy as fuck. They have moved on from sketchy cryptocurrency integrations and are working on sketchy AI/LLM integrations.
A dragon of Starlight that roams the vastness of space, Cosmic dragons are said to be beautiful, curious and born travellers. A dragon type I use in my homebrew setting, they're closer to divine beings than regular dragons. #ttrpg #MastoArt #dragon

Další takovouhle fotku už neudělám. Můj Nikon COOLPIX P900 vyrazil na cestu na Ukrajinu, aby tam vojákům v první linii pomáhal díky svému zoomu sledovat ruské pozice. A jestli si připíše do pažby nějaký ten zářez za ustřelenou ruskou hlavu, budu z toho mít dobrý pocit.
The data indicates we are locked into increasing temperatures. Most political and corporate leaders are completely inadequate to the leadership required. The northern part of Canada is burning while our carbon emissions are not being reduced. #heatwave #ClimateDiary
“This enchantment was made by a furry spelladmin. It only works if you’re at least 50% cat. Honestly we’ve tried to replace it but the tails are pretty nice and at some point we stopped worrying about it.”
In 1920, Mamie Smith became the FIRST Black American to record a Blues song. "Crazy Blues” ushered in a new era of "race records.” Previously, white singers copied Black vocal styles in blues recordings, while Black entertainers like Ma Rainey, Ethel Waters, & Bessie Smith were confined to the "Chitlin Circuit." Mamie Smith’s success paved the way for black blues & jazz musicians to thrive.
