Capitalism turns anyone into a fucking soulless ghoul.

Bar none:

Blue in Green

written by Mr. Bill Evans

It is not only the absolute best track on Kind of Blue, it is also the most beautiful, cathartic song in all of jazz history, IMO.

It’s the ‘Claire De Lune’ of Jazz!

shouldn’t be be required to use a cloud service in order to use a piece of hardware that you bought and paid for.

of course. I didn’t really insinuate that it should.

But surely, a 3D printer could/can. It’s just that the software that runs on it shouldn’t have shit security and there should be multiple safeguards and redundant fail-safe systems.

I have MPV setup to play any YouTube link when I press ctrl cmd m with a YouTube video url in my clipboard.

It’s hard to find instances that offer what world offers, so I get it.

OTOH, I ended up moving or handing over most of my communities that I had created on world because this instance is TOO popular and bogged down all the time. Plus, they make arbitrary and drastic decisions without discussion on matters like defederation and often banning. It’s smart to go to a smaller instance but it’s also risky because any instance could go down at any moment. That’s why many of my communities are duplicated (across world and infosec) because it would be devastating to lose all of those quality links and engagement.

Coltrane’s Sound when I’m looking for Giant Steps musical flow of consciousness while not feeling like I’ve heard it a billion times…

Then, I also adore his ballads and ballad compilation albums. I also love Coltrane’s ballad work because, IMO, he has such a muscular sound (if that makes any sense) that it adds character to his balladic passages (in contrast to Getz who was more stiff and in control at all times). Perhaps, in the visual world, what I’m describing is like if Basquiat painted a lush landscape at sunset.

I only go there to steal content that I then enhance manually. I always had a kneejerk reaction against the hackernews reposts on Reddit. So, I try to make my content cloning less conspicuous and I make sure to enhance the content with more depth when I bring it here.

It’s kind of a ghost town so far. But if we can wrestle control of social media away from corporate control, democracy across the world will be stronger for it. Regardless, I’m here for the long haul, making contributions FAR exceeding my efforts on Reddit.

Glad to help! I’m merely standing on the shoulders of the giants before me.

I use xmonad/polybar/rofi/alacritty/fish with Home Manager and flakes. You could just use my whole config and have it up and running in a day, deleting lines and adding others. Fork it and modify it to meet your preferences (as I did when I forked this amazingly slick config). I even made a custom typeface to add my favorite crypto logos to my Polybar.

Why the fuck is Plex even a company? Attention venture capitalists: Get your money grubbing fingers the fuck off decent technologies that should in no way be tied to profit-seeking. We live in a dystopian hellscape.
