Back to my acoustic bike for a while.

With boomers entering their twilight years, there is just so much eschatology to choose from.

It's March! Weather’s junk drawer.

"Wintery mix" sounds so much better than cold regret falling from the sky.

The New United Airlines Policy That Could Get You Kicked Off a Flight The airline cited the expansion of Starlink as the reason for the new rule.

United requires headphones when playing audio on your portable device. Let's roll this out at the federal level. Let's amend the Constitution.

Thumb Control

yes. I use list.group because it is consistent with rnbo

I prefer list.group as it avoids timing problems associated with thresh. You can use an bang to send the collected output, or use an argument to set how many items you want to collect.

So... I guess biking is out.

Yeah, how do you like being a squirrel NOW, huh? HUH?

Configuring a laptop with RAM and SSD inflicts psychic damage.

Phase B is putting [tool] into the service of an idea you want to express. If you have an idea you want to express, but you lack the skills attained in Phase A, you will be frustrated.

Learning electronic music takes two phases and they both have to occur.

Phase A: You're not making a musical statement, you're just enjoying using [tool]. It is in this phase that personal artistic vocabulary is developed.

You don't need to buy a bunch of synths to make electronic music. Do you have a laptop? That'll do. You don't need to buy a bunch of things. What you need will reveal itself to you iteratively. Trying to anticipate what direction you're going in advance is throwing away money.

Oh, wow, I'm invited to exchange my academic reputation for paid endorsements on AI audio tools. Cool, cool.

Hey AI, can you OCR this book for me so I can search across it?

That isn't a gesture I use, so I can't say.

The 'single flawed human comes to control a weapon of unimaginable power' is such a common trope. It's like we've learned nothing from Anime.

I did the 'large size' before for similar thrifty reasons and I remember the battery life being AMAZING. Small tax. This 'large' one is definitely larger than that older one.

'referbs'

Apple 45mm series 8 lookin like dick tracy on my tiny wrists

I'm old so I can't see.
I buy referbs, cause I'm cheap, only large size available
My wrists are bird legs.

Behold! Apple 45mm on my tiny wrist

Using stem separation on the original and superbowl versions would quickly provide a definitive answer, but I don't want to subject myself to his music.
