Full disclosure: Haven't read the article yet.
Working in corporate IT, this most likely is targeted toward enterprise customers who either take a long time to roll out OS upgrades or can't due to technical limitations within their environment. In those cases, paying the cost of extended support is more palatable to troubleshooting or rushing mass OS upgrades. This is a fairly common practice with enterprise software vendors.
Edit: Okay, just skimmed it. Looks like this is actually a new program for non-enterprise consumers, which is interesting. First I've heard of that.
I watched it all the way through since I'm a Halo fan, but I'll wait and see what people say about season 2. On its own, season 1 was...fine. I think if they didn't have any references to Halo and called it something else, basically left it intact but not Halo, people probably would have said it's okay. Not great, but okay. It definitely doesn't feel like Halo though, and so much of the show conflicts with established Halo lore.
Agreed, I think this is what is being suggested.
Howdy!
So I recently got a hold of a Criter and Guitari Organelle M and just got myself set up to write up custom patches on it, and I'm looking for inspiration on a simple patch to make on it.
For those that don't know what an Organelle is, the synopsis is that it's a Raspberry Pi-based musical computer that you can custom program your own patches on. These patches can be anything from synthesizers, samplers, sequencers, effects...really whatever you want to make musically.
Anyway, I'm just about done working through some tutorials to get a better handle on how that all works, and I'm interested in potentially simple patch ideas to build. Anyone have any thoughts on a simple synth concept or something like that I should try to make?
I am just now starting through Fallout 4. I’ve had it in my library for a while but never got around to it.
I’m not sure that this is a “game” idea so much, but I’ve had this idea I haven’t been able to wrap my head around the implementation of.
Think a digital audio workstation such as Ableton Live or Logic, but gamified. Complete various musical objectives to pass levels, have a creative mode for just making music and maybe even a multiplayer mode for collaborative or competitive music making.
I tend to go back and forth between Go and Python. Typically for work stuff I am writing AWS automation utilities though so I'll opt for Python because Boto3 is lovely. Go is typically for my personal projects.
I've also been itching to try my hand at Rust, but haven't brought myself to start yet.
My SO just had something similar pop up yesterday. She was running into weird errors on her Chromebook, so I had her change her user agent to Chrome on Windows. Everything magically worked. Hmm…
I'm not affiliated in any way with Polyend, but on Polyend's official Reverb (and I think some resellers as well) they're selling new Trackers for $359/€399. If you have any plans to buy one, now would be a pretty good time. I just pulled the trigger on one myself.
Per the email from them, the sale goes until September 4th or while supplies last. Also I confirmed as I was typing this, but that price does seem to be reflected with at least Sweetwater and Zzounds. Can't speak for others yet.
I’m lucky in that my employer went the opposite direction. Downsizing our local office and just letting us all be 100% remote. We’re a geographically distributed group so it doesn’t make sense to enforce office requirements.
Wait. I can automate my meetings too? I dig it.
I recognize the irony of this, but sometimes I like to fall asleep to the No Sleep podcast.
“It has awoken, and it is coming.”
Howdy!
First off, phenomenal work on the app so far. I’m absolutely enjoying it. It’s a tossup for me between this and Memmy as being the best Lemmy mobile app.
If I may make a request though, could we get the ability to report posts and comments?
This is why I personally am looking forward to fully self-driving cars. We’re a long way off, but when self-driving cars can completely replace the human element, I think the world will be a much safer place.
As much as a lot of that hate it warranted, I’d say the install location isn’t so much a Teams issue as it is a Windows issue and how it handles user-level vs system-level installs. Obviously still a Microsoft problem, but important to note.
Yeah, I’m kind of torn on this one. On one hand, having a drive replaced for an issue, then having that replacement fail with the same issue (or at least same effect) reeks of problems. That probably warrants merit.
On the other hand, it does show they likely have poor data backup practices if losing a single hard drive is costing them 3TB data loss. Either they were recording a day’s worth of video and lost it, in which case that sucks but it happens, or they had a ton of other data that likely should have already been backed up elsewhere in which case I have little sympathy.
Ah, neat! Yeah that would work then. I'd hope that your usernames are unique in your self-hosted setup, so that should work just fine. Very nice!
Or don't. You do you. But they are both sweet and affectionate and would love to snuggle you and eat your food.
Eevee is the kitten, and is my SO's snuggle buddy. Link is the big guy and is my tiny furry overlord, who dictates my snuggle schedule and bed time.
PS: I know cats in boxes and bags are in right now, but meh.
Hey there!
So I’ve had a migraine that has been going for a couple days now. Nothing entirely new, but it’s frustrating. Dark room, low noise, tried sleeping it off, taken multiple medications for it including my Ubrelvy which normally knocks it. It took the edge off, but now I’m going on day 3 with the migraine with no perceivable end in sight.
Anyone got any tips that normally helps them to knock their migraine that’s worth considering? Normally I don’t care too much as I’ve put up with them for years, but this one has me all nauseous which makes it that much more miserable.
Thanks in advance!
Edit: Sorry for not seeing the responses on this sooner. I went back to bed afterward and mostly stayed in bed and holy crap the responses blew up. I also called my neurologist and told them about it much like some of the advise that others have mentioned, and they started me on a round of prednisone to help. Fingers crossed it gets rid of it. Seems to be helping, but only time will tell. If it doesn't, I'll see about giving some of these a try. Thank you so much!
So this is a very early song that popped into my head that right now I'm simply calling "Forest Night Theme" because it makes me think of a child walking through a forest alone at night. Calm and peaceful, but also with a slight apprehension as to what else could be lurking in the forest.
Anything you all think it might absolutely benefit from, or anything that just should be dramatically changed? I know in its current state it's rather boring since most of the parts are static...planning on spicing things up once I have a good skeleton to hang everything else off of.
I'm a fan of grooveboxes and other do-it-all gear. It gets me away from the computer and lets me focus on just making music, and typically there's some kind of limitation to force creativity.
Here's what I've got.
- Roland Verselab MV-1
- Akai Force
- Synthstrom Deluge
- Sonicware SmplTrek
- Roland SH-4d (though I technically use this one solely as a synth module, but still)
Bonus points if you've got tracks you want to share! Like I made this track on a Maschine+ and then mixed in post in Logic. https://soundcloud.com/ndguardian/dreams-of-loss
Using TestFlight is a great way to help developers test beta versions of their apps.
@Beto - feel free to remove this if you feel like it doesn't belong.
Also full disclosure, I am in no way affiliated with this app other than I just discovered it.
Anyway I was looking around for mobile Lemmy clients since mobile is how I always interacted with Reddit. Seems like it's slim pickings for now for fairly obvious reasons, but I stumbled onto Mlem. It's pretty bare bones at the moment, but it seems to have the core feature set. It also looks pretty nice. If you're on iOS and are looking for a mobile Lemmy client, it may be worthwhile to check it out.
Well, guess it's time to introduce myself. I'm ndguardian, a tech guy by day, (very amateur) music producer by night and gamer the rest of the time. Based out of the midwest US. On that note, technically wouldn't I be more mideast? Definitely more on the eastern half of the US, but whatever.
I don't really have a formal music background...I was in show choir in high school, then as of a few years ago decided to get into synthesizers and grooveboxes. I don't release a ton of stuff, though technically I do have two tracks on Soundcloud. I'll link that at the end in case you care to check it out.
I like to think I have a fairly mixed taste in music, with my preferences ranging from Ozzy Osbourne to Hans Zimmer. As for my music production preferences though, I tend to steer more toward ambient and soundtrack-esque music.
Anyway, feel free to hit me up if you have questions or just want to chat.
