Last Notes npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder Pondering my options. Should I go John Rambo to protect my early 80s strat-style Japanese guitar? Or would a Kevin McAllister approach be sufficient? npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…59xt that's so cool! Similarly, I have a feeling this little Yamaha dude will be one of my most-used pieces of gear. What really sold me is that it has a clean input channel w/ no amp modeling that I can use for electronic music stuff if I want to (and/or use that tiny mixer I have), so I could plug in a little sampler or synth, play guitar, and sing. It will be so nice to have a little just-in-the-room setup!! npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…hdnv Totally! I do it many times a day and should probably do it more. It's like writing it on a scrap of paper that you toss in the fire. :) npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…mdnw @nprofile…xm08 Ahh, I thought it was one of your totally awesome compound words. German is so freaking cool. :) npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…fws5 that's good to hear, I'll probably grab the albums soon, and will check out his other projects. Thanks! npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…fws5 wow, yeah, he's really good. Any idea who manages his still-extant Bandcamp page? I kinda want to buy all of his stuff. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder Just listened to this absolutely lovely album by @nprofile…jv6w. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder I buy kiln dried firewood and I store all of the leftover bark chips in big trash cans to use as kindling. Unbeknownst to me, one of the cans had the lid off for a couple of months and became full of water. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder Just bought this fuffin banger from @nprofile…4t9g. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder I don't know what this means but nevertheless npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder I'm about to install Bazzite on a mini pc to give myself a little living room gaming performance boost from my Steam Deck. Fun! npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…59xt haha WOW and this is why I don't rely on Windows plugins npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…fws5 oh, also a 1TB SSD and 32GB of (ddr4 i think) RAM. So yeah, for $500, a pretty good buy atm npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…fws5 I just did a bit of ebay surfing and found a reasonable price for a minisforum HX90G, which will be something like 3x gaming performance (AMD 5900HX + RX 6600M) and cost less than what I can get for my Deck. So, hooray for that! npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…fws5 I have a Steam Deck OLED, which is pretty great, but the gaming performance when docked is not great. And it turns out I pretty much never use it as a handheld. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…fws5 yes, please do! npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder Once again, I spent an hour trying to figure out if there's a way to build a Steam Machine-type Linux gaming/HTPC for a reasonable amount of money, and once again, the answer is "not just no, but hell no." npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…j2nr daaaaamn! 😍 npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…upr0 imagine Rubinstein: "I didn't make this piano, I'm such a failure" :laughing: npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…zz3z mine is set to 120 days, and has been since Sept. 2025. I haven't noticed a difference in my experience, but I'm not a person who often tries to go searching for old stuff. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…zz3z also, just want to note that Hugo is absolutely incredible w/ communication. I might have bailed from masto.host if he hadn't helped me. I really appreciate it! npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…zz3z this absolutely fixed it for me. I'm on a single-user instance. I'm pretty active on here with a decent number of followers (the other user on my instance is way less active). I'm now very comfortably on the Star plan + ElasticSearch, w/ a ~6GB database. My database was up to almost 20GB before I changed that setting. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…zz3z npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder Wow, by Noah Hawley, no less. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…fekr I feel like it people use Bandcamp they're going to be fine with checking something out on a similar platform like Mirlo et al. There's always the chance of getting on Bandcamp Daily or something like that I guess, which could really up your numbers, but it sounds like you don't care much about the numbers. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…fekr lol my feed had an immediate reply to my question npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…fekr just reading through your replies here, it sounds like you really want to release it only on the smaller platforms. I say go for it, if that's what your gut says. What's the downside, really? npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…4t9g i'm about to try to put on a recurring music night without corpo socials and here's what I'm thinking: npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder There are certain words that really trigger my misophonia. Slop is one of them. Woe is me. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…cwxr haha that's really cute. In my house, one was never too young to listen to Dire Straits. Or, watch any terrifying movie. What were parents doing in the 80s? :laughing: npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder “In the past there was a group called ‘Dire Straits.’ It’s a dire strait now, and it is going to have major implications for the global economy." npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…r7wj wish i could have made it! Looking forward to checking out the video ❤️ npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…59xt thanks!! npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…ml9f jfc I just listened to the song. WOW. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder Um WHAT npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…fws5 that makes sense. I guess when I read it, my preconceived notions turned "taking a different approach" into an extremely wry/dry commentary, as if it had invisible scare quotes. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder A popular journalist #onHere recently posted a link to this article: npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder I'm considering buying one of the modern MPCs (One+, Live 3, etc), and I have a question: npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…wdzu what do you think the worst possible scenario would be if you did that? npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…wdzu 🤣 you go right on ahead. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…wdzu mmm. The longer version, which is too convoluted for a boost post, is that I bought a kit to upgrade my Zynthian to a pi 5, and then I can use the 4 that's currently in it to do other fun things, including router building if things get even more dystopian. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder I recently bought a pi so i could do this if i need to. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…upr0 same here! I never used a sampler until maybe 3 years ago, and I was instantly hooked. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…upr0 It's a sampler made by a tiny company called Isla Instruments. (They're currently re-forming in the UK.) npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder YT just recommended my own video from a couple of years ago, and MAN I love this setup! It takes me a minute to get warm, but I really like where this goes. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…59xt because there's https://solidstatelogic.com/products/six npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…59xt how many channels do you need? npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…mdas yeah spring is wild! npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder The troop is feeling very chill in the warm sun today npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…wdzu npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…xm08 it really is, and it matters so much in terms of how people open up to the music. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…wdzu @nprofile…xm08 oh wow, I didn't know you could do that. One of these years I'm going to really dive in to PD. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…xm08 if it's clip-launching you seek, I'd say Bitwig is as good at that is Ableton, and I even prefer it in certain ways. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…xm08 have you gone down the bitwig rabbithole? npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…pl2h totally agree, it's what I use for pretty much that exact reason. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…pl2h I have a designer friend who is a long time Apple/Mac person.

I recently ordered a countertop water filter that was supposed to come with an add-on that didn't arrive. The reply when I wrote to tell them it wasn't in the box? npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…p6fr Annie (with p&p), and here is Ludi.

I'll try it again. :) npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…wtnn at least in my understanding (which I think is pretty standard), the important distinction between polyrhythm and other things that people often call "polyrhythm" is that polyrhythm happens in a single time frame. So, let's say you have one measure of 4/4 at 60bpm. If you divide that same amount of time (4 seconds) into 5 equal pulses, you create a 5:4 polyrhythm. Just like dividing a circle into different numbers of equal-sized triangles. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…z5ah our Aprils in northern New England are kinda wild. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder April, you fickle bitch npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder This looks cool, and there's even a Linux version. I love that there's a standalone app, so I could potentially just use my little Linux tablet as a looper in the context of a hardware setup. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder Happy #Easter! npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…tw30 i wish i could come up with a different explanation but i can't npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…zhf5 jellyfin has bulk editing issues! npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…z5fs true :) npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…z5fs anyway, as you say, it probably is inevitable, but it's not inevitable that I have to sit around and listen to it. 🤣 npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…8pmp that's fantastic!

I really hate trying to convince people of things, but I do like asking questions. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…z5fs I agree that my country is an aggressive prick to the rest of the world, and I am very upset about that. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder Word. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…wgv6 :1000: npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…8pmp that's cool! is this a data collection effort? npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…wgv6 haha, I hear that. I am so often confused by my friends' conversations because they're on the "normal" internet and I have absolutely no idea what happens there. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…z5ah lol that's what I thought. I reread his post several times in case I was missing something, but I think he was just a prick looking to express his hatred for all Americans. Er, just the bad ones i guess? npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder Just had someone try to shame me for using "American" as my nationality by pointing out that Argentinians and Surinamese are also Americans. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…zdqn we don't really have another name for ourselves, so sorry, but Americans is what I got. Apologies for getting my American-ness on your post, I'll leave. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…8am2 lol npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…vy7h so dramatic. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder I don't like the clapping hands between every word thing people are doing for emphasis. It feels angry-preachy, and as someone who grew up in the Southern Baptist Church I really don't love that vibe. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…8ama damn, that sounds like a hosting nightmare. (my business hosts people's business websites and I live in fear of this sort of thing.) npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…zdqn this joke does not work with an American accent, but it's okay I get it because I watch Huw Richards on YouTube. ❤️🤣 npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…ptz0 there's definitely something to be said for people who have put in the time and effort to be great at an instrument, obviously, but it's so awful that there are actually people that are scared to play because they're not good enough. npub13qv0gz6x5m75n3y8k9smhrh8qd39yxv0nzzkfrz9gxg39p46uc3q6cdy40 Alison Wilder @nprofile…8ama this is completely amazing
