This was in the same speech where he said that the Holy Spirit was working through Trump to do all of this, and that Trump should have a third term and beyond.

It's becoming obvious that we should be treating Trumpism as a religious cult, not just a political movement.

Lol. Pythagoras - considered one of the gods to maths teachers - explicitly talked about the mathematical beauty of music. Where was this person trained?

If you're into audiobooks, I strongly recommend libro.fm instead - it's all DRM free downloads, so you never lose access.

But but but SteamOS!

I was using Audacity for quick Normalization and other edits to my samples, but I've since learned I can do that inside OpenMPT (and save those edits back to file). Audacity does lack any form of "midi-esque" sequencing though, which is how I primarily work.

Having said that, Audacity has come a long with VST support, etc, since Muse Group got involved. But unfortunately, they also allegedly enforced data tracking in a way that didn't respect the community that had supported it up until then. I actually don't know what the latest is (someone else feel free to reply with the update), but it hasn't been crucial enough in my workflow to keep up with.

My pleasure :)

Silver-lining: Ableton is very good and teaches a lot! Also, in case you ended up getting into Max4Live at all, it's worth checking out PlugData

Didn't realise it came with some Linux distros - cool! Sounds like something for me to spend a weekend looking into..

Yeah I asked about that on the LMMS Discord too, and said I had the same assumption. Apparently it is still under active dev, but you need to scroll down to the nightly builds.

I don't know why they don't update the Git Releases..

Hahah yes, MIDI lag can be tricky, depending on setup. If the tracker-style DAWs I've listed don't work for your style, try LMMS, Helio, or Zrythm

Just started exploring Linux Studio Plugins last weekend! I've heard Ardour is good, but I'm sticking to $0 options if I can help it. That way people don't need access to credit cards, etc, to use the software

 

Not sure if this has been shared already, but AllenAI / Ai2 is a US-based nonprofit who are trying to build AIs as open-source and transparently as possible.

Their OLMO models have fully transparent training data. Their Tulu ones are as transparent as you can be building on top of Llama. For some positive news out of the US this week, they released their new 405B Parameter model for free online chat and download.

From a practical standpoint, the country that hosts many digital services is undergoing rapid political change. For awareness of non-US alternatives, check out:
