A bunch of new followers, hi all! I'm Jonne / laamaa, from Finland.

I like to make #chiptune / #demoscene / #VGM influenced music with trackers and #synthesizers as a hobby and I post stuff mostly related to that.

You can find my releases from Bandcamp (https://laamaa.bandcamp.com)

I'm interested in #art, #audio, #musicproduction and #gamedev. Looking forward to see familiar and new faces here, feel free to ask anything!

Introducing PI𝕏ELFED

Saw an old Daily Show clip on Threads about free speech, and it sadly seems to sum up most people.

They’re not pro all speech, just want the ability to say whatever they want, anyone else be damned.

But I think it goes a bit deeper than that. The sad truth is that everyone is pro free speech… when their opponents are in power.

If the right are in power/have social status, the left want free speech and vice versa.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/fediverse-explainer-1.6905837 has a quick, mostly accurate explainer on the Fediverse.

One of the worst parts about misattributed quotes is that they undermine the idea of objective truth.

Nelson Mandela never said that. He said a lot of important things, but that's not something that he said.

Saying that he did say it, just because it feels nice, is obscuring the real world to make a digitally-structured one of our own liking.

Things aren't true just because they feel truthy.
