The first time I saw the Spanish one was at like four in the morning, and I thought I’d had a stroke lol

I have very fond memories of the Neil Buchanan era — of how quaint, low-fi and distinctly British it was — so my mind was kind of blown when I realized it has since become an international franchise

“One point three two”, because otherwise the question is ‘thirty two what’. Consider what happens if we put a zero on the end — does it become “one point three hundred and twenty” despite being exactly the same number?

I’m using Bitwig (the DAW) wrt hardware, it’s an i7 4770 with 8gb DDR3 RAM (which doesn’t seem to be filling up) and a sata SSD.

It is definitely worth it

Yes it’s basic diagnostic procedure

I still use Mastodon — as a place to dump intrusive thoughts more than anything — but there is this huge tension between people who want to chat with randoms, people who only want to chat with friends, and people who want to use it purely as a broadcast medium. The protocol/convention doesn’t really allow for managing this issue, which is a shame, but I have come to the conclusion that microblogging is just kind of cursed as a medium. It’s fundamentally all about building a personal brand, and if you have no social capital you are shit out of luck. And if you have too much, well, enter the reply guys.

Lemmy/the Reddit model on the other hand strikes a good balance between anonymity and being able to vet odd characters. Different people want different things ofc, and that’s fine, but I find I have more fruitful conversations here than on Mastodon.
