What I'm listening to today: "Chill granular meditation music w/ Prismatic Spray, monome norns, Phantasmal Force, 1010 lemondrop"

This piece takes four separate cheap tabletop granular synthesis devices and cross-wires them to make a dreamy, melodious noise ocean. The patch is endlessly self-generating so apparently the musician (the developer of the Prismatic Spray) ran it for 40 entire hours one week and just dipped in at some point to clip this six-minute recording.

US society and government stuffs 

TIL about this "no social security unless you've got 40 points, and you can get at most 4 points a year" thing.

WTF?

Not a problem for me personally, but still. All those people who paid into the system for nine years or whatever, just get nothing? How is that reasonable?

Hello programmers from #mastodon

I have a question for you.

⭐ What programming language do you use most of your life? Why exactly?

Most of my time I worked with almost the entire .Net stack, and in recent years it's Unity, so my language is C#
There were episodes in my life with mobile, many web stuff, java, c++, databases, etc.

I would like to normalize treating excessive financial wealth as a harmful addiction rather than something for the individual to aspire to. #wealth #capitalism

@stavvers All I know is that “Tits and Communists” needs to be the official slogan of the Fediverse. I’d buy a t-shirt.

#BlackMastodon May be interested to hear that Aveta, the community organizer in black tech Twitter has launched a defederated Calckey instance that will be prioritize safety, privacy, and accessibility for minorities.

I’ve been working with her and others and while launched it is still invite only as we address T&S, accessibility issues and how to best grow the platform focused on users.

bipoc people can DM me for an invite, if you’re willing to help us with improving the onboarding experience give a shout as we have product people collecting data and they need volunteer.

All you need to know about how rentier #capitalism works in one but of data:

The UK's water firms were privatised without any outstanding debts over thirty years ago.... now, the privatised #infrastructure (regional) #monopolies have around £62bn in debt, but are still failing to deliver an adequate service.

If that debt has not been used to invest sufficiently in the #infrastructure, which the firms now (grudgingly) admit,, you might wonder where has it gone?

I leave that for you to guess!

Seeing the LGB crowd shifting the goalposts now to LG without the B in a lot of places is the least surprising development since the beginning of this charade.

A lot of folks are debating about defederating from Meta on the basis of whether it would help maintain a healthy, non-corpo controlled fediverse.

Which is an important discussion, but imo an even more compelling reason to do it is because it’d be fun to just fuck with Meta. 🖕🖕

Good news! I can throw out the meds and ditch the therapy; my problem is bad character and weak self-discipline.

You can always look to a Kennedy for character advice.
