Wow a bunch of people seem to have noticed my last toot. After using #zrythm a bit more I realized it's still in alpha, which makes it a little difficult to make music in it right now, but I'm definitely stoked to use it in the future though! (I'll probably still noodle around with it though)
Found out about #zrythm today. I really like it so far. The interface is a lot nicer than LMMS's. I think I'll be using it to try and make music.
Though I don't particularily like the display. It's a little hard to read. Maybe it can be configured?
Well I just found out that there's a mastodon mode for emacs.

Studies show that human factors most influence the quality of our work. So why do we put so much stake in technical solutions?

Apparently it's #mensday! I didn't know that until know.
My father has been a great force for good in my life. He taught me to be interested in learning, and a great deal more. I am thankful to have a dad who is still alive and who is active in my life. I am grateful for the sacrifices he made for his family.

"In my work with mature students, I have found that inviting them to consider collapse as inevitable, catastrophe as probable and extinction as possible, has not led to apathy or depression."
Just started playing A Knight's Quest on the Switch. Apart from a couple bugs, I have really enjoyed it. The game sneaks a lot of fun in with its writing. The combat isn't great, but so far it has enough to keep me interested. Definitely worth the money

Recently learned about #pipewire for linux. Sounds like an exciting development! Hope to see it replace the current audio stack. From what I've seen said by those smarter than I, it's currently kind of a mess. That's definitely been my experience in dealing with jack and pulseaudio.

I really want to get rid of this notion of "project" and focus on the day to day creation, the wips, the failure, because I mostly never finish project because of lack of time or ressources and I don't want those things to get lost like a los certainly did

Just a general warning to anyone who uses #paypal -- never keep a balance in your account. They terminated the account I was using for @TShirtsBot and also for consulting work. They froze the money in my account for 3 months and refused to give me any reason why even after talking to someone on the phone.

Saw a bunch of toots referencing the land of #lisp. I own a copy, so I decided to open it up. I translated the basic #text #adventure in chapters 5 & 6 into #guile. It was surprisingly easy!
