patchwork

i didn’t realize the commute was implicitly a part of the 8 hours in your scenario. that makes a little more sense.

okay but when do chores happen? i can barely keep up on dishes and laundry with a 45 minute commute each way. sleep, too…

“hyper-accelerates the aging of all plaforms” that’s a funny way to spell “planned obsolescence” but you do you

that’s fair. it’s also easier for me to repair and modify my synth if i’m the one building it, which, chipocalypse-scale disruptions aside, makes the whole thing a little more future proof. and if this is the only synth i get, then i’d need to be able to repair it.

my rule for my own rack is that i have to solder at least part of every single module (and now that i’m set up for surface mount work, i’ll be able to build even more :3:3:3), and i’d think this would be the same

not sure about apt, but with apt-get the default behavior for upgrade is to hold back packages with new dependencies that are not currently installed. in that case, running sudo apt-get upgrade --with-new-pkgs should get those packages upgraded as well, assuming that dependency conflicts aren’t a factor, too

that would be lovely, if it wouldn’t be too much trouble for folks. i’ve noticed a few folks doing it on general nsfw communities more often lately, and it’s made my time there a lot less stressful. if the ask ends up alienating people here, though, i can skedaddle, too

yeah, clementine is amazing. it handles my absurd music library well while still being able to run on my ancient laptops

might be a friend group thing. more or less everyone i know that has either played it or watched a playthrough loves disco elysium

my guess is it’s the same as why they’re used on mastodon — they’re fun

it’s an interesting start, but i’m not sure how to fit in things like xenogenders and therian-gender identity intersections.

if the zero-point is meant to allow for bigender folks, then some kind of dimension/measure for overall intensity regardless of masculine/feminine/fluidity would be handy to accomodate demigender and agender folks, or the other way around if the zero-point is meant to be a point of reference for overall intensity vs the intensity of individual attributes.

maybe individuals having multiple points or ranges within the overall space could help, too? idk

no help here, i live in a sea of nightmare cable spaghetti

umm, well i got another no-input mixer module (a DE-5 Shakti) for my small feedback rack, and will probably spend some time feeling that out and making horrible noises after it’s built. aside from that, i’ll be combing BOMs and putting together a tayda/mouser cart for all the cheap st-modular PCBs we snagged in the modularaddict sale last week :3:3:3

psychological D/s is a huge trigger for me, so i’m trying not to spiral out after being surprised by this

kinda wish we had CW tags for bdsm on here…

tbph every playthrough i end up wishing there was an ending that explicitly backed the followers of the apocalypse

i’m not entirely sure about standalone synths, but a small DIY portable modular rig is just about right, i think. it’s just “one” synth, but i can repatch and reprogram depending on what i’m trying to get out of it
