Hi, quick feedback: the demo is extremely short, so I can't really say much. Please generate more complicated scenes and, most importantly, inspect the wireframe. From what I could glance from the demo, the generated models are tri-bas

Is Steam even dependent on 32bit distribution packages anymore? Doesn't it ship with its own whole set of 32bit libraries? If I look at my running Steam processes currently, it's all a huge stuff of wrappers, alongside the steamwe

That makes more sense, but we seem to have a different notion of the term "hipster". Anyway, from what I can see in the YT channel, it's not for me, but at least on first glance I can't see anything that would justify ba

Good for you! I also sold all my external gear many years ago and never looked back. And this is all very interesting, but has nothing to do with the topic at hand: where is he shaming people for using VSTs instead of external gear, or sayi

This is getting ridiculous, we are talking about making music , so triggering notes from different devices in sync. You know, what MIDI was originally designed for, not triggering some lights, guitar patches or a background track. You ar

Not sure if that is still accurate. This might only be available for Mac, but on the FAQ for Nome II it says this: Can Nome II send MIDI Notes? Nome II is like a MIDI hub, you can ask it to forward any MIDI sent over USB to one of its MIDI

There's not one word in his post where he looks down on VSTs or anything. It's just how he likes to make music, and he is unhappy with the state of modern MIDI implementations. In fact, it's the exact opposite: you are shamin

The Windows MIDI/USB stack adds considerable amount of jitter to the MIDI clock, compared to the much superior ones in MacOS. I will fully admit that "unusable" is a personal opinion based on my experience. Of course performe

First off, I'm assuming of course we are talking Mac here, because Windows is unusable for MIDI. If you have terrible MIDI timing with a Mac, then yes indeed, you'll need to sync via audio, but there are nice and inexpensive solut

How do you think any professional works nowadays with MIDI? A good, modern USB interface (from Focusrite or similar) has a jitter well below 1ms, usually in the range of 200µs. If that is too much, simply sync your DAW with an external, ded

Yes, so the vendor must not store it. Something along those lines is usually said in the privacy policy. If you don't trust the vendor to do that, then do not opt-in to sending data, or even better, do not use the vendor's softwar

No they don't. The formulation in TFA is a bit too generic - Debian will usually not remove any code that "calls home". There are perfectly valid reasons for software to "phone home", and yes, that includes teleme

The problem with the SyncThing Android app is that it's just a wrapper around SyncThing, which is a Go library, but SAF does not give you simple file descriptors you can use in native code. Instead, you get "content://&q
