Okay but as a guitarist, the guitarist from Galneryus is absolutely fucking insane.

I’ve known about them for a long time and they’ve evolved spectacularly.

Also, you’re either a music enjoyer or annoying snob. Do not be a snob.

I’ve met people like that too.

It’s called cheating, lots of people do it.

Most worthless dev I’ve met was a graduate of comp sci who couldn’t hold a candle compared to a guy that did a dev boot camp.

The best dev I’ve met so far didn’t even have any credentials whatsoever, second next best did 2yr associates.

Tie for 3rd best with associate’s and 4yr degree.

Hot take maybe but Linux isn’t for everyone, you gave it a fair shot and if it didn’t click with you then use Windows again.

If you want to keep trying then you already what you have to do: just be patient and try to learn how things work, watch videos etc

Don’t what that ? Then use Windows again. As a Linux user I appreciate that you tried, as most people don’t.

I’d rather feel numb

god I fucking love Linux (not a Linux thing) but I still fucking love Linux

I use Nvidia on desktop and haven’t had any issues

I use arch and cachyOS

I’m not sure what people do that kill their system frequently, and I like to think I’m over-thinkering with things.

what can’t you just self host your own Spotify and use vpn to access your music remotely ?

If anyone’s wondering why you would do this as a musician.

Obviously you can visualize how you’d play something, but skipping the obvious things…

You can do music theory analysis on pieces you’re interested on, it’s something that helps later with improvisation or composition

It also helps you understand the style you’re studying a bit more, it takes a lot of effort although with years of experience you can probably analyze a piece of music fairly fast, and on the bus even

the curvy sides kind of kill it for me lmao. I don’t mind the rounding in the corners but the fact that the watch’s sides are curved know kills the aesthetic

I don’t relate personally

hmm I don’t consider that part of like config stuff although I get it’s a dotfile

I share my dotfiles, I don’t see anything intimate or personal in there. I share them because other Linux enthusiasts have asked about what to use or how I config it.

It’s in my GitHub but what I don’t do is share my GitHub publicly, mostly cause it links me from my shit posting social media where I’m too open about things, into the work and irl landscape.

I like to keep those things separate.

dual boot with windows ? good fucking luck

The real answer is to get a bidet, have a better diet with more fibers, be more thorough when cleaning yourself.

I’ve used lots of drum VSTs in my experience they take a lot of tweaking to sound right but it might be the tism making me feel that way, also I didn’t mean to say they sounded like shit, just not organic.

that’s fine but it also kind of sounds terrible or too “plastic”, I’m thinking of buy an electric drum set and learning drums and through learning I’ll be able to pick through the samples I like using and in turn that ends up kind of pre-mixing some of my drum recordings (if it gets to that)

I know what you mean though, I’m on Linux so the options for those I’m not sure is the same as windows. addictive drums might just not work

I play guitar, piano and bass? recently got one and started building basic competency skills.

I’ve been playing for like 15 years, terrible still but that’s what makes it fun for me.

I’m interested in recording things but just get too overwhelmed with thinking about using midi drums or synths, the fun part for me is playing over things not necessarily mixing and mastering them. It is something I’m overall interested in.

So it’s a cycle of abuse then

yes and also: you are here working 40+ hours a week every day until your body gives and the health issues take over

it’s because he’s so fucking stupid that some people think it’s funny, the odd side-effect effect is that even stupid people think that his popularity is because of something else

so you get this weird community of hate watchers and fans? following the popular streamer and wanting attention/ being parasocial

he’s extremely obnoxious but it is my impression that being obnoxious annoying and loud is ultimately the winning strategy for live streaming
