When they try to turn the tables :bloblaugh:

"AVG: Thank you for selecting AVG Free"

(Yes, I don't trust Windows without some anti-virus.. it's still Windows :windows: )

Edit: Completely removed AVG now since many people say Windows Defender is good enough ✅ The less running in the background the better

@stux Haven't installed any free AV since Defender got introduced in Win 10. It's as good as any of the free ones, and it stays out of the way, which can't be said for some free ones.
I'm looking at you Avast.

Anyone know if a way to delete all your Twitter posts these days that still works after the API changes?

Making my day a bit more fun by setting the Slack message notification sound to Boink instead of the typical TokTokTok. 😁

I always found it a bit weird that the day Christ got crucified is named "Good Friday".
I mean, really? What's good about that?

It's almost World Backup Day, so you better back your stuff up.

n3wjack,
@n3wjack@mastodon.social avatar

Oh, and also try to restore it, because a backup is worthless if you can't actually restore stuff from it. 😉

n3wjack,
@n3wjack@mastodon.social avatar

@JorisMunnik True. Those are usually just exports, not really backups.

Is there a way to search only your feed to find a posts you've seen a while ago, but can't remember who posted it?

I know there is from:me for example, but I can't find anything to search only the people I follow.

This morning I found out 76% of women report using less due to harassment and “tinder-like messages”.

WTF

@aronow A while ago, a Belgian politician received a dick pic on LinkedIn by some dude.
On LinkedIn of all places. I mean WTAF.

Just watched Oppenheimer and my initial reaction is that I feel ashamed for Christopher Nolan and every last person in Hollywood that cheers for that kind of art wank Rorschach test being made about a serious topic. If they had a point — make it. Don’t fuck around. We are so doomed. Amused to death.

@secretgeek Now I'm curious about the movie.
Not a fan of recent Nolan movies (Tenet). Way too complex. I figured this one was going to be more "normal".

@janvhs I have a few posts on getting started on Windows, but the vimrc stuff is mostly the same for any OS.

I watched Re-Animator and found it quite entertaining.
Turns out it's inspired by an H.P. Lovecraft story.

In case you're curious about the making of my most recent track "Elegiac City" from Metaphysical Shitposting, I'm here to satisfy that curiosity.

First, here's the album/track
https://etherdiver.bandcamp.com/album/metaphysical-shitposting

And here are some photos of nearly everything that I used:

A photo of Loopy Pro, a looper app, running on an iPad. A synthesizer and drum machine are visible in the background.
A photo of the app Dials from Hainbach and Bram Bos running on an iPad

@etherdiver @synths @experimentalmusic do you record into a single WAV track, or multiple tracks? I'm wondering because of how mastering is done afterwards. I guess it's harder to master if it's only a single file.
The mix has to be quite right already in that case.

Just saying, if any normal person would say “if I don’t get elected, there will be a bloodbath,” the various FBI would totally arrest that person within a few seconds of them saying that.

@timecraft I don't understand how he's even allowed to run for president.
