I’m curious about this. I’ve started playing with Reaper and getting into music recording and production. I’m very fresh on the scene and haven’t used any DAWs on any other OS, except viewed protools on Mac. I can’t quite get latency free playback, which may just be user error and configs.

Do you know if something like this will have default benefits out of the box, or will we need to somehow configure our apps and services to utilize these changes? I’m completely ignorant but am really intrigued.

Not shit, but isn’t that what brought about mad cow disease? Farmers were feeding cattle brain matter that had infected prions. Idk if it was cows eating cow brains or other animals though.

I think that the post may be a violation of law and it’s just not being charged. It’s like pulling someone over for speeding, and giving them a warning instead of a ticket.

I’m perfectly okay with people in charge of protecting national security following up on threatening posts that may put the life of the VP in danger. I wouldn’t be okay if they forced entry or overstepped their power. I didn’t think following up like this is crossing any lines and is arguably the best way to handle something like this.

What do you feel would be more prudent, just to leave it be?

Nah. If you post rhetoric online that might get someone killed, you get visited by the top brass. Clearly he doesn’t have to talk or let them in, but their visit lead to his posts being removed and now he knows he’s being watched and has been warned. If he posts something again like that, they may just get that warrant but now they may not need to.

I’m looking trying a new distro on my junker laptop. I’m kde and Arch right now. Do you have any recommendations for where I should test the waters? I don’t have any intentions with this machine other than testing distros and couch surfing.

Ah yes, another cultured user. Everyone should know about and subscribe to Dropout.tv for the content and to support a solidly ethical company. Sam is a saint.

A rollercoaster. It was dropping until the cheese thing, which I think is just normal, unspoken behavior. Sounds to me like a bout of depression, or at least what I think is depression. I 100% get the same lethargy to life, and it tends to come in waves.

If you haven’t, I’d look at having a chat with a professional. I’m not a good role model for this, but I have pushed through the lulls more times than I care to admit, and it gets tougher every year. The negative thoughts set in and create this negative feedback loop that makes functioning difficult, and digs a hole that’s hard to climb out of.

Anecdotally, if this is new to you, it doesn’t make for a happy life. I’m working to get help, but there are roadblocks. I would encourage you to try the same. If it doesn’t help, then you can cross that bridge later. If it does, then you’ll be in a much better place and the light will shine again.

…or the Internet really is just shitty.

Doing something that will almost assuredly kill you is a suicide attempt.

Starting ones self on fire is a suicide attempt, regardless of political motive. This isn’t the same as sky diving or even trying to see the Titanic in a carbon fiber pod, this is pure and simple, self immolation to death that failed, so far.
