Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.worksto Patient Gamers@sh.itjust.works•What are some games with absolutely fantastic soundtracks?3·4 days agoMegaman 2 still reigns supreme IMO. The most consistent soundtrack for any video game ever. Bangers end-to-end.
Sexy Parodius is also fantastic. It’s a demented mix of jacked up, synthesized classical and folk tunes. This is probably my favorite track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlRO9Q0dbQA&list=PLAdIErLpAnQCc5Mk19_MAyeV5bMGsFRpG&index=24 The synth-sax is incredible!

Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How many musicians we got here on Lemmy?2·5 days agoHmm. I suppose the “solution” is to just start it again on another instance and link to that version for archived material. Thanks!
Oooh oooh, make it a comedy show where they do it with a low budget, mediocre impersonators of original actors, and zero respect for the source material.
Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Which games made you go into an "addiction phase"?7·6 days agoMy most played Steam game is hilariously Tametsi. It’s a Minesweeper spin-off with different layouts and shapes and zero guessing required for its ~200 puzzles. Some of the later puzzles require some absolutely bonkers chains of logic to figure out. It helps there’s a fantastic YouTube series of videos by innocentive going through puzzle solutions that are some of the most relaxing and entertaining things I’ve ever watched. He almost always points to the next thing you need to consider first, so you can just pause a video after he mentions where the next step is and follow the logic yourself rather than spending hours hunting for it.
Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How many musicians we got here on Lemmy?1·6 days agoYou can see the remains here: https://sh.itjust.works/c/synthesizers@lemm.ee I made my new account a moderator of the community before lemm.ee went down, but I actually am not familiar enough with Lemmy to know what that means. There’s no owner anymore?

Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the worst food you've ever eaten?4·7 days agoThat would explain the smell and the taste. The one upside to this is that stingray meat never really goes “bad”. It pickles itself. Which as I understand it is the reason people started eating it despite the awfulness.
Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's the worst food you've ever eaten?8·7 days agoEither live octopus or raw stingray. The former is chopped up and dipped in spicy sauce to make it writhe. The latter absolutely reeks of piss (stingrays are full of ammonia apparently). Silkworm larva are surprisingly delicious.
Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Hertz' AI System That Scans for "Damage" on Rental Cars Is Turning Into an Epic DisasterEnglish102·11 days agoHuh? I don’t think I’ve ever used a rental car service that didn’t require a credit card. Exactly so they can charge for this sort of thing.
I mean, if anyone without Trump’s money and influence had this many accusations leveled against them, you can be pretty sure they’d be behind bars by now. It’s not that the women aren’t being trusted, it’s that the entire fucking system is broken. Or more accurately, is designed to serve the rich and powerful.
That’s a bit specious coming from the land of Samsung, Hyundai, LG, etc. etc. The oligarchy is firmly entrenched, here.

Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.worksto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•there's no escape! brew another cup!2·17 days agoEvil. I like it! Maybe some mandatory ad viewing somehow shoehorned into the unlocking process as well.




I recently sucked it up and upgraded Windows 10 to 11. Music production is getting better in Linux, but there is still a whole lot of existing music software with no Linux support. Cakewalk for example has no Linux support, and I imagine getting it working in WINE with VSTs and whatever else would be an immense chore. Same story with Ableton.
That said, if you don’t mind migrating to a DAW with Linux support like Reaper, Bitwig, or even Ardour - which is open source and free - producing music with Linux is the easiest it’s ever been. Just don’t count on Linux support from a lot of VST makers who often require you use their software to install their VSTs. You can usually still install those VSTs, but it sometimes requires less than legal methods, and may be a hassle.
If you’re a producer who mostly just uses a DAW as a recorder for hardware, it would barely be a change to your workflow at all. If you are reliant on Cakewalk and Ableton specific processes and VSTs, it would be much more difficult
