  1. they should release an app of some kind that is just a button. when pressed it charges the user $3 and spits out 30 minutes of algo autechre jam as a wav file for download. every time it's pressed it's a different variation. this would probably cost me around $300 because i'm sure i'd press it 100 times over a month or something and i'd have 3000 minutes of autechre music. srsly though there's still a lot to discover in the recent deluge of tunes. i listened to feed1 a few times last night and the layers of shifting swelling aggro wave foldery wavetable fm whatever the fuck is going on there.. are just amazing. been a while since we had an ae remix hasn't it? most recent remix was 2016 i think.
  2. Just read that. Sucks. Didn’t know she was rashida jones’ Mother. Day before mother’s day. Ugh. So long Norma. RIP. Edit: fuckn page break. https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/movies/la-me-peggy-lipton-dead-20190511-story.html
  3. set is so good. some NTS4 moments in there in the middle especially but that last 30 minutes or whatever is just bonkers right in the butterzone of ae baked goodness. when that guy lets out the "WOOHOO!" it's because if he didn't yell the top of his head wooda sploded right off.
  4. oof. about 18 months ago the main water line to my house broke right outside the basement wall. was around $2600 to fix. they came out w/a ditchwitch drilling thing. parked it at the street and drilled horizontally (like a parabola shape so it went down then came back up half way through the process) into the yard all the way to the basement wall where it drilled right through. I think they have a similar thing for sewer pipes but maybe not. regardless, expensive pain in the ass but whatyagonnado? nothing.. can't have shit filling up the basement.
  5. if you ever come to portland you have to stop by modular8. there's so much random video stuff in there. there's a monthly meet up. the store owner has some nice custom glitched old video mixers and stuff. there's a guy in portland who does them.. big pauper. site link below. some interesting things. we have video synths and various cameras for feedback in the store. it's not my wheelhouse but the guy who owns the store is into it. https://glitchart.com
  6. ya never know w/him though. when the tariffs started w/china our allies approached the white house asking to "do this together. to work as a united front" since there are a lot of things that various nations want to sort out w/china and gradually make changes. trump let everyone know that this is "his fight" and he'd be going alone. meaning.. the USA would be going alone. what's hilarious is USA imports more steel from Canada than from China. but whatever... i don't think trump would go whole hog on an invasion but he's dumb enough to be convinced to do anything.
  7. just find the agenda that might do the least harm. all the goons in charge currently should be fucking guillotined. and there's plenty on the left who double deal and have conflicts of interest and bow to corporations. i think some politicians are noble people trying to work for the common good. none of them are boy scouts.. they all make hard choices sooner or later and i'm sure have a difficult time w/some of the compromises. and some play a long game and try to balance the scales over a career in public service. but many of them are shills. it's basically a path to riches. a way to game the system to their advantage. there's a reason that many people in congress are lawyers of some kind.. it's so they can write the rules so that only lawyers can understand them. there are some people w/integrity but they're often crushed. america is srt of a place that is detached from itself and its history. mostly what survives is myth and dreams. we're going to be outpaced by china soon. they will be the dominant power. USA still has the biggest economy but that won't last. this country doesn't have like a 50 year plan or anything.
  8. spells out a large swath of america in smart comic form. really kind of amazing https://popula.com/2019/02/24/about-face/?fbclid=IwAR1DQNPUXJNUu3GQ_bOnsxJBm8F_09QOkjKMgEcngldcOjn6tgsbrezhyUM
  9. listened to it in the studio tonight and the detail in it is stunning. there's so much going on in such a minimal structure. i love that bass drum. and there's so much depth everywhere. wtf.
  10. t1a1 - is pretty amazing. there's a lot going on in that one that comes and goes.
  11. Florida will ban cities from banning plastic straws https://www.cltampa.com/news-views/florida-news/article/21066793/florida-will-ban-cities-from-banning-plastic-straws?fbclid=IwAR3yLxw-M1_lL7K1Qb6u12j9oG6nsfk5G2d8YkbERGgj0mP5dnnTtPqv-s4
  12. a flattening feeling of boredom and indifference probably as a result of long term sleep deprivation.
  13. Barr's tone and actual voice is more annoying than even possibly trump's. i find i turn him off even quicker than i turn off trump. he's quite a prick. i don't think anyone is going to trap him in some way. he just reverts to legalese and splitting hairs. all this is simply an opportunity to bring him out and show him to be a liar and an asshole who is trump's henchman. the senator from hawaii got it right i think. she registers genuine disgust and anger at this fucking contemptuous pig.
  14. she pretty much says it all. watch the video for her statement before she asks him questions. he's a prick. she's right. she calls him out on all his bullshit. https://www.cnn.com/2019/05/01/politics/mazie-hirono-barr-senate-judiciary/index.html
  15. shit. Barr throwing Mueller under the bus. this will be good. https://www.yahoo.com/news/barr-blames-mueller-for-not-reaching-conclusion-on-charging-president-174428571.html
  16. oh paste as plain text. derp.
  17. i don't think i'm smart enough to use the forum anymore. seems like i need renoise hexidecimal skills. can we get a forum tutorial renoise style. ? i kid. it's fine. but no more automagic of twitter links where you post the link and it shows the tweet?
