i just listened to grush (slapper btw, thank you @die4ever for posting it) and it made me think of another mike paradinas album i hadn't listened to in a while

fun fact when i first listened to this i did not connect the dots that "mike & rich" are in fact two of the greatest to ever do it, thought it was just some guys lol

also i love this album cover so much

yeah the hardest part of being vegan is interacting with non vegans. gotta love how the default response to veganism (you know that thing we do to try to better the planet and animal rights and shit) is to argue as if doing something about the issues you care about is a negative trait.

mfs always got something to say and love attacking a thing that as far as i'm aware is proven to be better for personal health, the environment, your wallet, and animals.

this is the correct response.

get it in writing that they accept the risk that comes with not upgrading so it can't come back on you. all you can do is CYA and make recommendations - if management does not agree with your recommendations make sure you have it documented that you informed whoever is making the decision of the risk.

if you think your employer will somehow still try to hold you accountable for this, save the aforementioned correspondence using something your employer does not manage i.e. a personal device. you could also let other people than this specific individual know about this so it isn't just your word vs his.

corporation yet again proving that if you want to be free to use your own things that you paid for on your own computer you can never trust anything that requires an internet connection to not trample all over your rights

love it very cool really vibing with the current state of software and the internet

i wouldn't trust a company who would enable this by default to allow users to TRULY completely disable it. much like how you can only opt out of the telemetry options they allow you to.

hi all,

i've been getting some comments that my mic is quiet so before i go looking for a new one, i thought i'd check to see if this could be solved with software. i don't have an amp or anything for my mic and to my knowledge it shouldn't need one, but it is pretty old now and i forgot what actual product it is.

i'm on arch using kde with pipewire. i am already using kde's (or maybe something else does this idk) feature to raise maximum volume to 150% in the audio volume window, but this will turn itself off at unpredictable intervals and is also seemingly not always enough.

so i ask - is it possible to set some setting or use some linux audio magic to raise my mic output volume? and in the same vein of changing/setting audio levels, is it possible to configure the volume level on my system to not go above a certain level - as in all audio above x level is clamped back down to x?

full transparency edit - not 10 minutes after hitting the post button i found the volume knob on my mic that i swear to god was hiding so well and was definitely not just right there the whole time and definitely not accidently turned way down. still would like an answer to the second question though lmao

hi, is there anyone else here who is disappointed with the speedrunning tools available for linux users?

i've tried livesplit through wine but i can't get global hotkeys or autosplitters working, and speedrunning in general doesn't allow for the leeway required to tab out, split, and tab back in. i did give this a shot but it seems like livesplit server is deprecated and the project never got any more work done. also tried livesplit one, but again i couldn't figure out global hotkeys or auto splitting.

i used to use a tool called flitter but i would really prefer something more configurable like livesplit.

ok actually midway through writing this and looking for links to the things i've used in the past, i found this tool that does support global hotkeys. autosplitter would be nice, but it's better than the rest.

i'll still post this though - i'm curious if there are any tools/tips/tricks/etc others have to share.

been battling impostor syndrome for my whole career, and today i learned that one of the new (not new to the field) people on my team doesn't know how to use excel, the thing i spend like 50% of my working hours using.

worrying for my team and maybe the industry, but very comforting personally lol

you can't honestly be saying that there are no issues with hosting documentation/support for a project exclusively on discord as opposed to a classic forum or wiki.

even ignoring the issues that you are dismissing (and would not exist on a better suited platform), the people using the discord server do not own it. discord servers have no backup functionality. what happens when an admin goes rogue or gets hacked etc? what happens when people get tired of discord for the next chat app?

you shouldn't have to use a burner email to download a videogame mod or view documentation for an open source project.

why doesn't Radiohead put out an entire album of songs like pulk/pull revolving doors? they had a really unique and cohesive idm sound going and kinda dropped it to the side

not so much that they like to be used by companies, but that they don't care enough to change or learn how to stop it. for most people, the idea of giving up their favorite online service because of ads or whatever other predatory anti consumer shit it implements is a little extreme.

as long as it works, the vast majority of people who are not tech-literate will just use it regardless.

anyone else excited about this? i love these types of getting over it -likes and i'm super excited to give it a try. Moving that style of game into a 3d space introduces all sorts of challenges and gameplay options and im sure people are gonna have insane strats for stuff.

i could imagine a speedrunning community going crazy with this game instantly upon seeing it
