Himmler was a militay/police guy (e.g. head of the SS), the propaganda minister was Goebbels. Musk is far more similar to a propaganda minister than to an SS head.

Weird, we’re experiencing the opposite in Europe.

They aren’t wrong IMO - if you don’t do anything that requires a lot of processing power or really need a lot of slots for peripherals, PCI cards and drives, you might as well connect your external display, keyboard and mouse to a laptop. It gives you the option to take the entire thing with you, and a lot of people have spare laptops anyway.

I know plenty of people who don’t even use their laptop much because they’re doing everything on their phones or game consoles.

Even without weed, they still had Bob Marley and reggea in general.

If you’re not on .world, defederating .world remains a possibility. Also, have you never browsed your instance’s local tab?

Only if you think that the instance’s userbase doesn’t matter for any given community.

Rastafari isn’t actually that cool, especially not when it comes to gay people. They are also strongly opposed to oral and anal in heterosexual couples and are generally quite patriarchal. Have a read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rastafari

Also, afrocentrism is one of its core ideas, which makes it pretty weird when white people convert to it (e.g. Gentleman, a German reggea singer).

Also, weed is still illegal in Jamaica. I assume it gets tolerated somewhat, at least with the Rastafaris, but it’s technically illegal.

Also also, Jamaican rum is really good! It’s a very special style, no one makes it quite like they do.

dbzer0 or shitjustworks would have been way better than world. There’s just way too many assholes on world, and even if you ban everyone who is overtly malicious there’s still going to be a ton of normal users who are bringing a completely different vibe/political direction than the blahaj users (I say, as a feddit.org user).

Faders are good for stuff you’re doing fast and rhythmically, e.g. the crossfader on a DJ mixer (especially if they’re doing scratching and the like). For most other things sliders/faders take up too much room IMO.

He makes some really good points. The process of creating is so important, a lot of the time it’s actually a far bigger issue than whatever technical pros and cons there are (and digital definitely has some pretty big pros). Similar to how vinyl or cassettes force you to consume content in a more conscious way than mp3s or streaming, or handwriting instead of typing on a cpmputer can have a positive effect when you’re learning school stuff or tackling some kind of complicated decision you have to make.

I also feel like I’ve had a much easier time making music when I was making chiptune with a Game Boy than when I’m making more conventional music using a DAW - sometimes, limitation can be freeing.

Thanks! I know about Oglaf, I suppose the SFW nature of this comic made it harder to recognize.

Hey, what’s the source for this one?
