@PNS Aren't you just adding another reason to help her out? There's a common disregard for helping people who are less physically capable for any reason. I suppose the move from a high trust society to a low trust one plays a part in that but also we've been living with movies that shows women easily defeating men in physical fights and many of the most physically gifted men are not gifted mentally so there's bound to be a belief that women are generally as physically capable.

@PNS I think they mistake tiktok for a means of real social connection. So the way you might share something with a friend is being pushed into a broadcast medium.

@PNS If you think about what she's describing, it's very similar to tribal life. The modern way of living has reduced community and same sex platonic relationships.

@PNS If she's being the least bit accurate, her ex probably wouldn't be winning a man of the year award.

@PNS There's a tendency to think that the Times of Israel is a fairly centrist opinion. The majority of Jews I've met and talked to about religion, which is a fairly small sample, have espoused their atheism. I wonder if the circle can be squared to allow the profound ego without the call to God. I assume, in this piece, the reference to God is simply a useful tool to fortify Jewish excellence, in their opinion.

The piece has been taken down but it's referenced here:

@PNS OMG. It's not safe to look after kids or be in the kitchen.

I guess laptop jobs are the only safe route.

@PNS @OneEyeKing She did it well though.

@charlie_root@annihilation Thanks for that. I meant to buy it for the longest time.

@Humpleupagus .social I mainly use things like this as idea generators. Same with Cableguys Shaperbox and Devious Machines Infiltrator. So I'll flip through presets and then create something in Bitwig to do the same thing better.

Polarity's plugins are great. It's also worth installing his bitwig presets. I just cloned his git and put it in my Bitwig presets directory.

@Humpleupagus @charlie_root @SK1ZM @Sergio4ever @ned @dictatordave Sounds really powerful. I never got into trackers.

@dictatordave @charlie_root @Humpleupagus @Sergio4ever @SK1ZM @ned When you buy Bitwig the purchase includes a year of updates but if you want to stick to the version you have at the end of the year you can. So it's perpetual with a year of updates and then you can subsribe for another year of updates if you want. Personally I have the Studio version. It's well worth the price, especially as it's on sale right now.

@Humpleupagus @charlie_root @SK1ZM @Sergio4ever @ned @dictatordave I don't find step sequencing useful but have you tried the stepwise editor in Bitwig?

@Humpleupagus @charlie_root @SK1ZM @Sergio4ever @ned @dictatordave Bitwig is great. These days I load up a synth vst/clap get annoyed and create what I want much more quickly in polymer or the grid. The problem with the grid is you can't do feedback without a minor delay and it's CPU intensive.

@dictatordave @charlie_root @Humpleupagus @Sergio4ever @SK1ZM @ned Why not run Cubase on an Atari ST?

@Humpleupagus @charlie_root @SK1ZM @Sergio4ever People say they like the variance in analog but I doubt anyone could tell in an AB. Most analog synths get tuned in production anyway.
It's closer to @ned 's point, it's a feel thing, especially for gen z.

@PNS @DrFell Great idea though. If done right you could probably annoy someone without them finding the reason for years. Like constant AMSR.

@PNS It's already recovered to just under the launch price.

@maxmustermann He offered the insurance after Lloyds pulled out which would have stopped shipping. I agree it was a fuck you. @p The US does seem to be suffering the least. Part of being the largest oil producer in a time of uncertainty. Does it pay off in the long run though or just mean depression everywhere, the US last.

@tyler @sampler @prettygood You still get dependency hell in venvs.

@PNS That was surprisingly well done.
