Don't mind me, just testing how big of an image I can upload here...

Does it get scaled down?

Now that Cardinal runs more or less stable, I started some attempts at creating background soundscapes.

I am not that good at this CV/modular stuff yet, but does not seem too bad either.
The modular part is only doing sequencing for now, creating synths from scratch is something that is going to take quite some days to learn still...

Already happy with the results so far, and that is what counts in the end 😀

Since many modules in Cardinal are CC-NC, let's just go with CC-NC artwork then...

Go Miku for that UwU feeling inside your modular environment 😊

@unfa they will get less tight with time no? and it only needs a little bit exposed in the right place to be critical.. just seems a bit risky. taping the bottom part of the wire up in the frame could help, so gravity does not pull down on the cable merge block.

@unfa Yeah those semi-exposed wires scare me, at least put some electrical tape around them.
I am afraid you will one day need to move the lamp around and forget about the wire setup, you will be up for quite a shock!! ⚡

@areyouloco I am not paying attention to cadence at the moment at all. Leaving it on the side for a few other projects that take priority.

I understand the pain though, my OCD is also triggered by not being able to reset the xrun counter. 😁

I mean, creators will still be able to see the number of dislikes for their own videos, but the public counter is going away.

> On November 10, YouTube will be making the public dislike count private. Users will still be able to dislike videos, and creators will still have access to the dislike counts for their own videos in YouTube Studio.

Seems like the end of an era, the youtube video dislike counter is going away 😔

@carithlee the results are skewed, green is obviously the best color so most people will vote for it.

@boilingsteam Obviously not, again why do you think these side projects are a thing? It is exactly those that brings extra money on the side so they can keep being in business.

They already cut down on resources before (for example with MDN and servo) and are trying to find ways to be sustainable.

This is not controversial and does not need to be, just a side effect from the current state of affairs (both in tech/software and the world and economy). Dreams and wishes do not pay salaries

@boilingsteam Brave uses the chrome/ium engine, so they don't have to do 99% of the work that Firefox does. Of course they can manage with way less resources...
There are small open-source projects that are basically the same as Brave, in terms of just reskinning Chromium's engine. Even less work when using WebKit/WebEngine over gtk/qt as the packaging side is then already done.

@boilingsteam If they scale down their developers leave and the product dies.

@boilingsteam The execs (and business operation location, in London no less one of the most expensive places to be) is something I dislike.

The side-projects are exactly a means to survive.. why wouldn't it be so? You cannot make money creating an application that people expect for free, I started a discussion about this a few toots ago.
They need services on top of the browser to get a return on investment on their part. And no, donations are not going to be enough.
Seems like you hate Firefox

@boilingsteam Brave the closed-source browser that injects their own ads into the DOM? How is that a good decision at all? Anyone that just is a little privacy conscious would never use a closed-source application for such critical parts of their life.

@boilingsteam except this is just not true..
As long as Google has enough money to pay as many engineers as it wants, Firefox will always be playing catch up.

You think mozilla at some point in the past didn't care or something?

It is impossible to compete with someone in the web space who defines the actual specs that will end up in the browsers. HTTP3 and many others things are basically created at Google/Alphabet.

Firefox is just trying to survive at this point, finances do not look good

@sub26nico Eventually yes?, but not yet at the moment.

JSFX soon coming to your DAW
