Note that I haven’t used it in two years, but this is the same problem I had with the extension and experimenting with things like evil mode in emacs. There was also a problem where VSCode would update and the vim extension would break or g

> It sometimes is, or at least used to be, intentionally mastered with less dynamic range. Right. Agreed on this. Mastering for the particular medium is a big part of the final outcome.

The sound quality is worse, but that doesn’t mean it’s not preferable. If you listen to music with a decent dynamic range and has some breathing room, then the sonic qualities of vinyl can enhance that. The same goes for cassettes. There’s

A very similar open source project, Tic-80[0], already exists. It has tools for sprite generation and music creation. It also supports Lua, in addition to Fennel (natively), JS, Wren, and Moonscript. [0] https://tic80.com/

The Discipline and 2000’s era KC are probably my least favorite. My preference is for the 70’s Wetton-fronted version and 95’s Thrak. Part of me feels like 80’s Crimson was riding changes in music, rather than driving them. Another part app

> I have greater empathy for people in those roles. Working support must suck, but being first line support in a call center truly sounds like hell. Same here. The company has put them in a no win situation. However, it also leaves me pi

If you want outdoors - gravel bikes are great fun and it beats riding on tarmac, dealing with SUVs. Walking, running, or hiking nature trails. Gardening. Prior to the pandemic, I was doing about 6 hours of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu per week. Exer

I can’t find it now, but there’s a Bobby Clarke quote about modern protective equipment being like armor. This gives players a false sense of invulnerability and the tools to hit other players harder with less damage to themselves.

Ferris is kind of a grifter. If he were to probe deeply, then others might do the same to him.

Interesting. I had an assembly course taught on a VAX system in 2001. At the time, I had the impression it was because the instructor had access to it and felt it was of historical significance. I wish I could remember more about the experi

Who can? Sure, Disney shouldn’t be able to copyright public domain works or Mickey Mouse until the end of time. But they also shouldn’t be able to swoop in, use your songs/artwork/software in their latest movie, without permission

Apart from some node issues early on, CoC has worked well for me. At some point I’ll try the native lsp, but it seems like a lot of setup, just to get back to where I already am.

Fantastic Plastics are a husband/wife duo that play Devo-inspired synth pop. It’s not normally my cup of tea, but they’re fun and the production value is great. They’ve got costumes, make extensive use of green-screening, OBS overlays,

Idiomatic Powershell is definitely verbose, but you get used to it (and you can disregard if you want). The verbosity can be used to make it more human readable, if done right. I use Powershell on a daily basis - the biggest thing that peop

Is that what they want, though? Most people that work an office job, at least, still deal with Excel, Word, and Outlook. Maybe they’ll setup work email on their phone, but that’s probably it. I’ve noticed a pushback (true for myself, too) e

I really enjoyed this set of tutorials for Tic-80, which also uses Lua (or Fennel/Moonscript/Wren/JS). The series was a really great intro not just the tic-80 engine, but programming concepts in general. A friend of mine was

My spouse, who suffers from an autoimmune disorder, suffered similar symptoms. Severe enough that she won’t be able to get the second dose. My understanding (from her doc) is that this is a known, but uncommon side effect for people with au

The title doesn’t match the article. It’s not about why toms descend in tone (typically - unless you are Jimmy Chamberlain and a handful of others). It’s about why toms have variable lengths.

That’s interesting - those are all sweet. Most peanut butters (except natural) are slightly sweetened, but are often used as the savory counterpart to jams, jellies, and/or honey. I’ve (an American) only ever had Nutella on whitebread
