Yeah, that’s so much effort, I’d want to be paid extra for it.

we already had meters before we knew the speed of light.

It’s true.

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth and the metric system.

Genesis 1:3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.

Yeah, it’s the parents. Their views are passed on with every minute in the household. Children absorb.

Huh, weird.

Okay, I’m definitely trying again.

Some of my older gear is fine, but an example of something that wasn’t working was my TD-27 V2 on a kit. What module is on yours?

Yeah I have tried it, but didn’t have luck unless I was driverless and that meant losing velocity. Maybe I configured wrong, it was kind of confusing but the internet said it was facing the same issues as me. Mainly this was for Roland stuff.

I was going to just get a laptop for Windows to record onto next to instruments and then transfer, but I’d rather just be able to plug into the DAW.

Yeah, peripherals lol. All my sim stuff is working brilliantly in Linux, however I still have some audio production stuff I need Windows for. Unfortunately, due to the need for minimal hardware latency and all that, Wine and VMs aren’t an option. Also a lack of drivers for some midi devices sucks.

Mine brain just does 0.75 × 4.

Thought process was…

1. Get 1% = 0.75
2. Double it = 1.5
3. Double it = 3

My dogs just disappear off into the dark. When I see pairs of eyes glowing back at me, I know they’re mid-poop.

I like my PC being my PC. The more it does things I don’t ask of it or tell it to do, the more I will seek alternatives.

One of the most frustrating parts of MS products these days is that you’re just along for the ride. And unlike Apple which is just the same, MS has far less intuitive behaviour or method. I would say their products are for beginners or those not tech literate, but the failure rate and amount of complex troubleshooting required for MS products and environments are easily the most challenging and frequent. It does not help that Windows Update constantly introduces new issues to the OS and other software while undoing any previous workarounds.

That company doesn’t get to touch my stuff anymore. It’s like trusting your car to a four year old.

The paragon of free markets learning about how free markets work.

Exporter: “Why would I pay the tarrifs? I’m competing with prices as it is, I’d run a deficit.”

Importer: “Well why would I pay the tarrifs? I don’t even want the thing.”

Consumer: “Well why would I pay the tarrifs?”

Exporter: “Okay, goodbye. We’re shifting US market funds to elsewhere.”

Elsewhere: Thanks, US! Competitively lower prices and higher quality products."

Most interesting part is all the shipping companies that have just cut out the US due to all the companies bailing. My partners been advised by DHL they’ll do it, but it costs more now because of low traffic and the US buyer has to foot the bill first + the tarrif. But obviously my partner’s company decided they’re not shipping to the US anyway. It’s like a “special order” thing to contact them about.

Impacts the US companies in the industry too since all the best materials for that industry come from Asia. They may be US-based but focusing on international markets instead too, since obviously sales of their products with tariffs on the price will drop sales massively.

No body on earth could’ve seen this coming. Absolutely nobody. Not a single person. No one. The day tarrifs were mentioned, couldn’t have seen this coming from miles away. Absolute shock.

“President Trump will continue making peace deals, ending wars, and saving lives,” Cheung wrote on X. “He has the heart of a humanitarian, and there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will.”

🤣

Already the case. My partner’s company stopped shipping ahead of this because they couldn’t be fucked.

I asked if anyone in the industry was working on workarounds; nope. No one’s bothering and has excluded the US as any sort of market.

International shipping is basically dead now. Like you really gotta want the item and be willing to pay a lot for it, especially as shipping services become more unique and costly.

That’s my point.

You’re a very easy group of people to control. You never do anything and the situation you’re currently in is a direct result of that. It’ll keep getting worse, trust me. Why would it not?

Yeah! That’ll teach 'em!

My dumb brain was like, “Jesus, how hardcore were these traffic offenses?..”

facing trial for perjury and forgery

“… Oh! The fraud! Yeah, what the fuck?!”

Yeah, I gotta get with the times.

Joining a white supremecy group; it’s the new “I had an affair with a minor of the same sex and deny all of it.”

While reading that headline, I was expecting either:

a) resigned after being arrested for blowing coke up other men’s bums in late-night park orgy.
b) resigns after claims of sexual assault on students still learning their ABCs.

It’s usually something like that with these people.

I feel like that’s most of you. Both sides—I mean, fact that two sides even exist is enough—just kind of sit around waiting to be told what to think by your feeds.

I’ve called people out on here for peddling bullshit, “Well the right do it and we won’t win by being nice.”

WHAT?!

Meanwhile a bunch of users nomnomnomming up the content.

It’s such a weird country.

Kind of why you only see stuff on Lemmy that supports a specific view and bias and never challenges it. This is a place for circlejerking, not some common ground of diverse political views and interests. We only post content here that brings release, ensuring

Edit: Oh go on then, change my mind. At least where I’m from—any developed nation in the world you can think of—I can say that without worrying about someone from my “tribe” shooting me in the neck.

I knew it! The .ml gang are massive Trump fans.

Oooh, the second US civil war may still be on but not in the way we first thought.
