@tsrono better stock up on multivitamins if you're going that route, unless you make fairly complex versions. Yeah, food prices are going up super fast. I grew at least a few hundred dollars worth of food from a modest garden last year. And buying bulk whole foods when they're on sale saved me a lot.
a couple of months ago i wasn’t even sure if i was going to keep the Squarp Hapax, & honestly i’m still not 100% locked in on it, as good as it is…but they just dropped a silver faceplate swap for it & im so close to nabbing it, looks pretty fuckin sweet imo.
Yes. Well worth it. And yeah, once wifi became so good, suddenly, ethernet cables became less useful/necessary. But what are we gonna do, throw them away? No. They might be needed someday. When I win the lotto and get that sweet rural gigabit connection.
playing with the Korg opsix native demo lately seeing how i like it. just a quick mic recording/screencap vid. some moments were nice enough, was liking the effects on this one tweaked from a starter stock patch.
new music up soon: split release with Blush to the Snow who i've been a huge fan of since he started releasing music a few years ago. it's all on the ambient/drifting/calming tip but there's a bit of drama & a touch of some unknown in there as well. 2 tracks up now, give them a listen & a share if you're feeling them.
i've very slowly pieced together a simple website at https://tsrono.blot.im which features nothing special yet & is certainly incomplete.
this has been done in part to try & provide a backup source for my music, in case, well, who knows? lots of uncertainty on the internet the last years.
@tsrono Nice. I'm working on that myself currently. It's been too long since I had an online homestead to call my own. If things were as cheap to host as they are now, I never would have dropped it. But I think it's nice to start with a clean slate. I gave up on using Gatsby after a week, and now I'm making better progress with Hugo. Still slow going, though. There's a lot of new stuff to learn compared to the relative simplicity of hand-coding basic html. But it'll be much faster, eventually.
@Metamere i could never manage the building from scratch, i'm just not versed nor interested in being versed in the coding side of things. when i found blot a few years ago i was glad how much hand-holding their service is doing, perfect for me! & very affordable. i'll let y'all more tech-minded have fun with the from-scratch stuff like you mention 😅
if i start hosting lots of tunes there i might have to reassess costs/etc. but for now i'm very happy with my little site.
