@lore Apart from enthusiast hardware, it's very underwhelming. The last cool synth thing I saw was the pad that Muse used in Madness. Aside from that pad thing, nothing really significant in big brand innovations.

Meanwhile enthusiasts made kits to recreate the legendary synths and much more. It just seems like a stagnant market in many ways. MIDI has seemingly changed more than synthesizers have.

@thendrix Depends on what you mean by super straight. I'd rather just have good quality people around who are good shots.

@brainwart I remember having to work on an older version and I have to say something. Lenovo UEFI has backdoors and it's going to get hit with a rootkit that bypasses the security of the system. It's really deplorable to the point where I would recommend not using one at all.

Linux worked fine once I did a little trick to get UEFI to load Ubuntu. Performance was good, hardware support was fantastic and it seems that the Linux system wasn't affected by the malware in UEFI. I still wouldn't trust it.

To summarize, I would not recommend getting a Lenovo at all. Framework might be a better option because the security on Lenovo is absolutely horrifying.

@thendrix Well that Kemp fella ain't so bright. Politics in GA: Corruption level equates to "votes" in our system.

Seriously the first thing I notice on a ballot is how many people I don't like and how both names are the only options. Fuck both parties, how the hell did they get the nomination? The devil went down to Georgia and got elected. On the bright side, being an elected official in GA is its own unique hell.

@freemo @ariaflame @GeePawHill @agilealliance Bigoted asshats on bath salts trying to smash with their cousins but with gentrification that will certainly fix all the problems.

@VPS_Reports@kolektiva.social Just a typical day in California I presume.

@lore I've seen his code, yeah he will make it. Funny things happen when going from DSP to x86-64 to ARM. Not really funny but infuriating.

@freemo You made holes in the paper but it looks like the shots were straying horizontally and vertically. Those were still good groups.

The good news is that even armored attackers can't soak up 25 rounds. I have seen the glory of the coming of the lord...
