It is #BandcampFriday to be sure. And do support artists there.

But here's a reminder that it is *always* #BandcampFriday on #faircamp where you pay the artist directly every day. See the faircamp webring for artists and labels

Wanting to go visit the Statue of Liberty in May... before they scrap it and sell the copper. Kidding / not kidding.

Anyone been recently or live near with suggestions? Where to stay? Which tour company to use? Etc. Also want to visit NYC of course, but centered around a visit to the statue.

#Peertube posts have a title and a description.

When posts federate (to Mastodon, anyway) the title and a link become the body of the Mastodon post.

The description (and hashtags?) don't come across.

Curious if this is configurable on the peertube host or if peertube would need code changes to federate better... Or Mastodon. Where is the actual issue?

Looks like https://bandwagon.fm/artists is adding integration with https://theindiebeat.fm #InternetRadio so you can flip a switch and your uploaded music shows up on the #TheIndieBeat radio automagically. This is very interesting stuff going on... #Bandwagon being federated and now allowing opt-in (by release) for radio play could be quite powerful.

I am working on a #Roku app for The Indie Beat right now and it'll be available early Jan due to holidays

Suppose you've made a piece of music as a gift for someone. How do you "gift it to them" exactly?

If you've ever done this, how have you done it?

#musicProduction

@musicproduction #musicProduction people... Is there a mobile (Android for me) audio player with a really good EQ or even standalone EQ on mobile that you can use while auditioning your tracks in various places.

If I'm listening in the car, I'm really listening on my phone. If I'm listening over crappy Bluetooth speaker, I'm really listening on my phone. If I'm listening on the stereo in the living room, I'm really...etc

Would be nice to audition changes without revisiting daw each time.

I invited a friend to tonight's #bonkwave release party stream @axwax and he said, do know what he said, he said he prefers badonkabonk and so I said u can't handle the badonkabonk and sent him this link and said go listen to this right now. Fool.

I tried this last year and it worked out great. Let's give it another go!

Let this be a thread where *you* reply with a link to *your* #art or #music or #shop

What are you trying to sell this holiday season so that I (and others) can find cool #artist made stuff "locally" here on #fedi. Forget #holiday shopping on Amazon ffs, buy direct from artists and #makers!

That's right, I want *you* to reply to this thread and drop links to your shops, bandcamp, kofi, etc.

The way crypto mining works, the whole point, is that if a billion CPU cores are trying to mine a coin, one and only one wins, and gets the coin.

The results of the other 999,999,999 are scrap and get wasted -- their results are heat and fossil fuel emissions.

It is literally the least efficient use of computing power in history. And that includes LLMs which ostensibly produce a "useful" result each time.

We should outlaw crypto mining through the EPA. For a start.

Sometimes, the spoon runs away with another spoon.🤷♀️

Tonight's lunar eclipse is quite a bit cooler than I thought it would be.

Isn't it wild that every new human has to learn everything from scratch?

Watching YouTube videos of abandoned houses from 80 90s and the young person doing it is so adorable. He doesn't know what anything is...

"Oh look an old fat back TV"

"What's this double toilet for?" (bidet)

"Is that a house stereo?" (intercom)

"Houses should still have these" (electric can opener)

"Mitsubishi TV!?"

"This garage door is so wide two cars could get in" (2 car garage)

"This house has an apple tree. I've never seen one in the wild!"

Young people. Whole world ahead of them..
