Spastche··on Sweetwater Sales Engineers are a team of music-gear experts dedicated to you
I introduced a coworker to modular synths, and then suddenly, they had a ton of synths and debt to sweetwater, and then they got divorced. I kinda wondered if their GAS led to a divorce
Spastche··on Jensen Huang says the junior developer problem ends in two years
what an insane thing to say
Spastche··on Why does everyone hate data centers?
cause they got our stuff in them, and we didn't put it there

I am not a number, I am a free man.

that's why I clicked
Spastche··on Hackers (1995) Animated Experience
I was never into this kind of music back in the day, but I had heard A LOT of it from PSX games. going back to it as an adult, I freakin' love it
Spastche··on Abandoned by Humans, Forsaken by Nature: The Plight of Pigeons (2024)
one of my tomatoes grew almost 20 feet this year entirely off a little bit of pigeon guano, that stuff is crazy as a fertilizer
Spastche··on Why Kingdom of Heaven's Director's Cut Is Better
hell, it can ruin the movie in some cases, like Donnie Darko
Spastche··on Maintaining a Music Library, Ten Years On
Foobar2000, but I'd recommend hosting something like Navidrome and using a browser for playback these days depending on your setup / household
Spastche··on Geometric Pattern Generator
I like it
Spastche··on Frigate NVR supported Hardware for AI Computer Vision Object Detectors
without a GPU it's pretty rough - my old i5 had a lot of issues with it, but I upgraded to a GPU that supports AI stuff and it's a lot smoother now.

my bigger issue with it is detecting things incorrect but that's a matter of fine tuning the config I think

Spastche··on Ishkur's Guide to Electronic Music
for old electronic music - Youtube, honestly. the algorithm is pretty good for finding old electronic music. like if youtube recommends me some random old 7 minute song with nothing but a picture of a record, there's a good chance I'm gonna like it at this point.

I'm on some of the oink/what successors and honestly, it's so hard to build ratio that it makes me not really like them at all.

Spastche··on SonyShell – An effort to “SSH into my Sony DSLR”
any info about Nikon?
Spastche··on TV Time Machine: A Raspberry Pi That Plays Random 90s TV
>I find it quite baffling you'd want to drop In halfway through a 3 hour movie, you'd miss out on so much!

if it's good I'll rewatch it, if it's something I've already seen then I'm not missing anything at all. There's so many movies I've turned off when the beginning is boring, it's a decent way to watch new movies and it's how movies on TV used to work.

I'm trying to watch Robert Altman's filmography slowly, and there's so many slow 3 hour movies that watching them in small pieces until they click and actually make me interested in the entire thing helps. if it's all action or something maybe it seems pointless, but some films are a very slow burn, and this helps.

also it's not just movies, but TV too. I would use the shuffle button on comedy shows I've seen a million times before, now tv style drop in works just as well as that when I just want a laugh but don't really care what episode of something I'm watching. now I don't even have to pick a series, I can just pick a channel labelled comedy.

did you grow up with cable tv? maybe it's generational or regional thing

Spastche··on TV Time Machine: A Raspberry Pi That Plays Random 90s TV
I've setup something like this recently and I think it's great - I really like the idea of just dropping into the middle of a movie because honestly who has the time to watch a 3 hour movie? that's one thing I really miss about TV

kinda tempted to get a CRT just for it to make it even better

Spastche··on Charlie Kirk killed at event in Utah
this place does a very good of portraying it's self as neutral, rational and logical, but it's definitely not any of that.

my Pocket C.H.I.P. wants a friend

neat product but what a garbage company that was

explaining dyson spheres to theo von is like trying to explain art to a shih tzu
Spastche··on U.S. senators introduce new pirate site blocking bill, "Block BEARD"
>I watch a decent amount of movies, I can count on one hand the number of times I couldn’t rent it for <$5 on Prime or YouTube.

delve deep into most directors filmography from the 60s/70s/80s and you'll find plenty missing. Ken Russell, Robert Altman, etc

Spastche··on YouTube to be included in Australia's social media ban for children under 16
this is so, so, so much worse than Tipper Gore
Spastche··on I launched 17 side projects. Result? I'm rich in expired domains
>But honestly, I've never learned so much, nor enjoyed it so much.

that's all that matters. it's important to enjoy the process of making things.

Spastche··on Kite Aerial Photography
thanks, this is just the article I needed right now. I bought a fisheye lens (multiple, actually) recently and have been wanting to get a drone that can carry a DSLR, but this seems like a much cheaper and interesting idea.
Spastche··on Two guys hated using Comcast, so they built their own fiber ISP
I live on a dead end road with two ISPs and the one that isn't comcast is unusable. Comcast pretty much laughed at me when I asked if there was anything that could be done to drop my overpriced bill
Spastche··on Use Plaintext Email (2019)
>but they aren't a reason not to send HTML email

I've seen a lot of email providers flag random emails for having weird HTML. why take the chance of non-delivery at all? send plain text.

Spastche··on Sid Meier's Pirates – In-depth (2017)
the mini-games (dancing, the land battle strategy game) kind of ruin that version. it needs a modern version.

Spastche··on What will enter the public domain in 2025?
isn't the new pedestrian from a few years ago the same way? (the one with lights)
Spastche··on America's new millionaire class: Plumbers and HVAC entrepreneurs
you can kind of get an idea by looking up who owns it on your state's secretary of state website, if a personal name or an LLC with a local address is the owner it's probably local, but if it's an out of state address then you can probably google it and find out who's address that is associated with
Spastche··on Filed: WP Engine Inc. v Automattic Inc. and Matthew Charles Mullenweg [pdf]
>However I do not understand why you chose to make 1.5 million enemies in the WordPress community in one weekend by shutting down their ability to update plugins with zero warning and consequently reducing the security of their websites.

yup. I'm about to make a new site and I dont care about the platform, I just want to write. but I'm not gonna use wordpress ever again now, probably. Matt seems friendly but this is evil CEO garbage
