@grumpasaurus not bad, but you gotta swap out the saltines for fritos

As someone with dysphoria and dysmorphia, the idea of becoming a vampire is extra appealing. I'm already pale. Not being able to see myself in the mirror? Bonus! And I'm scared of crosses for entirely vampire-unrelated reasons. Garlic would be a sacrifice though.

@YouShallNotPass as a five time skin-cancer survivor who gets sunburned in less than 30 minutes, i already can’t go out in the daylight…

@YouShallNotPass yeah i never liked the sun anyway 🙂

funny you mention the theater, because in high school, i was in a production of Dracula 🧛‍♀️

@YouShallNotPass oh gosh, that was nearly 30 years ago… it wasn’t a musical. the only thing i remember was me and my best friend building a revolving bookcase into the set. i was so afraid it was gonna fall over during the show.

sometimes i acted, but i liked doing the behind the scenes stuff more. i think my friend still does that kind of stuff for a living

@YouShallNotPass i feel like we’re in a vampire renaissance lately, between What We Do in the Shadows and Renfield [yes, i love campy movies, lol]

People who design APIs. I am begging you. It doesn't matter how "simple" or "intuitive" or "elegant" your API is. You need to include sample code.

zombierustpunk,
@zombierustpunk@hachyderm.io avatar

@mcc In fact, you should be writing the sample code as part of designing your API, so you can see how easy it is to understand and explain the primary use cases.

ugh. for not the first time, the simplest route in front of me seems to be "learn rust"

Logic Pro is still resetting my audio interface every minute or two. The logs show various bluetooth devices doing things, even though bluetooth is off. There’s also various audio subsystem logs that give no results when I search for them. I guess the next step is to try it with a different interface and see if it does the same thing.

@wren it’s a behringer Q802USB, and i don’t think it’s possible to update the firmware. 🤔

i’ve been using it for years with no issues in windows and macos. it seems like something broke when i upgraded to sonoma

zombierustpunk,
@zombierustpunk@hachyderm.io avatar

@wren You rock! Hooking the mixer directly to the machine instead of going through a usb hub and a switch seems to have fixed it.

That’s annoying as hell, but at least it works. Thanks for the suggestion!

Just when I think LinkedIn can’t get any worse, it recommends I reconnect with an old friend who is dead.

@CStamp i’d settle for greedy social media conpanies not trying to gin up engagement by suggesting i interact with people who haven’t used the site in years, whether they are alive or not

zombierustpunk,
@zombierustpunk@hachyderm.io avatar

@LevelUp linkedin knows they haven’t used the site in months or possibly years, which is enough reason not to do this

I wonder how many bugs have been caused by the fact that abs(INT_MIN) returns a negative number.

There really should be more holidays where people can burn effigies of traitors.

@JessTheUnstill Would really send mixed messages since Texas has the exact opposite holiday on January 19.

Ugh, I upgraded to macOS Sonoma, and now when I’m trying to record audio in Logic Pro, it randomly resets the audio interface every few minutes, putting nasty garbage in the recording. I have no idea what it’s doing. That new microphone icon in the menubar flickers when it happens.

I don’t really want to learn a new DAW, but Logic is now the only thing I use macOS for. If I can’t fix it, maybe I’ll make the jump to FL Studio.

I know a lot of folks are pessimistic about the future of AI, but not me. I think 10 years from now, AI will be able to generate wrong answers at least a thousand times faster than today.

@Iragersh Every time you get to a real human, the bean counters consider it a failure.

Ugh. I never like doing an #introduction. I’m here because I want to follow cool people and see what y’all are making. I want to see your cosplay and your hobby electronics and your webcomics and your indie video games. Show me what you’re passionate about.

I code in various languages. I write music. I use every OS, but I don’t think I’ll ever love an OS the way I loved BeOS. 💔

I love Star Trek and Squirrel Girl and spoiled black cats. 🐈‍⬛

@tschundler I tried BeOS development in 1998, but I wasn’t ready to write multithreaded C++ that wouldn’t crash constantly.

Now, with decades of experience, I’m sure I could handle it, were it still around.

I did love using the BeOS Terminal though.
