Long shot, but does anyone I know have Philip Pullman’s “The Subtle Knife” on audio book that they could lend me?

Long car journey coming up in July, and even music can get dull after a few hours.

I wonder sometimes about running my own mastodon/fedi instance on my little Raspberry Pi 3B. Is that feasible?

@thomas It was just an idea I was toying with, I’m perfectly happy at metalhead.club 🤘

I probably won't get around to trying it – particularly in light of your other tips about SD cards etc.

@thomas I wish I did, but Danke anyway. 😉🤘

Current BSG rewatch arrived at the point we were waiting for last night – season 3, episodes 19-20, “Crossroads” parts 1 and 2.

So so good.

Seeing @jonhicks ’s Mortimiser gave me the impetus to give my (more than a decade) old Project Codename Generator a quick cosmetic facelift.

(You should really name things after what they do, though…)

Occasional reminder that I finally finished and released my second album earlier this month. Twenty years in the making, and I'm really proud of it. You can get it on Bandcamp and other indie platforms.

I am so so proud of my album “Love and Painkillers”, and as proud of the fact that I actually finished it, and released it. The amount of work that has gone into it is - I think - justified by the end result.

Thanks to everyone who has bought it or shown interest in it so far.

Many, if not all, of the most creative people I know (and myself) suffer from frequent long periods of depression that absolutely nullify the chance of getting anything creative done until they pass. It’s one of the reasons that my album has taken so long to finish.

axemonkey,
@axemonkey@metalhead.club avatar

I’m emerging from a very dark time at the moment. It’s not completely over, and it won’t be the last, but for now I am back to being a functioning contributing person.

But when someone you know is in depression, just be there for them. Don’t try and cheer them up, don’t try and distract them, or try to swoop in and fix whatever you see as being wrong. Just be there for them. Help them if they ask for it, sure, but just being there is often enough.

In other news, for some reason I reinstalled ICQ and even found my old login from ~20 years ago.

I’m still 9107663. 🤷‍♀️

Post a perfect album that came out when you were 16.

Michael Penn's March is still in heavy rotation in my earbuds.

Still unsurpassed to this day, if space-age guitar-maestro shred-wizardry is your thing.

@thomas Rabea Massaad’s instru-metal project “The Totemist” has a second EP out.

SO heavy.

Dear Lazyweb, I can’t find that semi-famous story of some diva artist (I seem to remember it being Beyonce, but that could be wrong) being such a pain to the producer and engineer when mixing their music, that they installed a special “ambience” knob (or something) that they could tweak which would affect the sound in some way. In reality, of course, it wasn’t connected to anything and did nothing but soothe their ego.

Halp me find it?
