I haven't tried LMMS, but I stumbled across Bitwig a while back, and I started using that when I decided to pick up music making again. I love it. I tried using Ardour for a while, but I found it overly cumbersome.

This is what SQL took away from us. Never forget.

Will have a look tomorrow if I find the time. I don't have much storage space at the moment, though, so if I do end up grabbing it all, I'm going to need one of you to take it off my hands, depending on size.

I was thinking -18% tax rate. So if you're a corporation, you get 18% subsidies on top of your profits.

Yeah, that movie was a perfectly timed parody of the War On Terror(tm). For a sequel to work today, the background must be changed.

Even Alex Jones is critical of Trump these days. He still considers him amazing and all that, but he says Trump doesn't go far enough in some of the rhetoric. I'm curious to see if this is a litmus test for future defections

One thing I've learned over the past 13 years is that the parts one thought would be easy were actually hard. But the things one thought would be hard are actually very easy, namely "fancy" meals and other "luxury" every day stuff.

I'm currently redoing the bedroom of my oldest kid (removing an ancient bathroom so he gets more space, and rebuilding a wall for extra soundproofing. It surprised me how happy he was about learning these two nuggets:

  • He gets to choose any color he wants for the walls.
  • His ceiling light will be dimmable.

After my last grandparent passed this spring, the final stages of dividing up the estate on my fathers side is now in full swing. As my father died around a decade ago, his share is divided equally among my siblings and I. My aunt is in charge of the estate, and last week she looked at all the accounts, and I was pleasantly surprised at what was in them.

While my grandparents weren't rich by most standards, their generation was simply really good at saving up. Despite my share only being one third of a fourth (my dad had three siblings, I ha e two), it was enough to pay down all of my debts except the mortgage and then leave a decent rainy day fund.

The ones who claim that money can't buy happiness obviously didn't account for situations where lack of it is what's keeping you from being happy. I've been financially stable for a while, but I'm officially no longer living paycheck to paycheck.
