I had an old htc vertical folder with a leather cased keyboard. If I had a version of that with modern hardware, that would be my jam.

Checks notes, that’s not what happened, no. Tons of phones had/have keyboards.

Cool, thanks! Reaper seems pretty capable, but I’ve heard good things about bitwig.

I’m coming from protools, and it’s gonna take some adjustments, so I’m trying to figure out what’s worth putting time into.

Moment moment.

I’m messing with reaper right now and just got my daisychained firewire interface working. What sold you on bitwig? I’m interested, but I haven’t looked into it yet.

Hell ya. I’m resurrecting a netbook right this moment. Pretty stoked about it.

All is not consolidated, though. “All” is your local feed plus what is subscribed to by users on your instance. It isn’t everything by default, afaik.

It is a shame that pilots love to commit plane crashes, though. Fuck pilots.

It makes total sense if you are familiar with baseball.

Touching base is something you need to be sure you do. Not only while running bases, but also when tagging up after a dead ball or a caught fly.

It happens regularly and, therefore, it is generally nonchalant. But it must be done; it must be remembered and kept up with.

It’s aight.

Cloacussy takes another victim.

The other one that hit me in this thread was cheez waffies. The sharp cheddar powdery goo in between stale waffle-textured hard tack crackers. Not even sure if I’m actually into it, but I’m INTO it.

We are of the same time. Those images are visceral. I need to take a nostalgia nap.

I understand and know about this stuff. But thanks for youtube vids. Gruyère has been making cheese continuously since the 12th century and is now available worldwide. That happened without this.

Not sure those numbers back some prohibition ice cream conspiracy to make everyonelove cheese. But industry certainly met demand throughout industrialization. It’s sold to us like everything else, and maybe we shouldn’t buy so much of it, but all it really had to do was be awesome.

Cool story, but the EU eats more cheese per capita than the us. Every country in Europe just did the same thing the us did, know that cheese is delicious. No narrative required.

So you don’t have an answer, that’s fine, figured as much. Hand waiving, indeed.

Irrational actors are unpredictable in compounding ways. The concept is a meta analysis of the individual and the masses. Biases, irrational fear, herd dynamics, etc. These can lead to unpredictable outcomes.

But markets can still function, sometimes, because of other factors. Leverage, venture investment, loss management, mergers and acquisition, etc. And learning from witnessing a counterintuitive market dynamic.

In this, most basic example, there are no compounding factors in either case. There are no buyers. So, their irrationally is not a factor. And there is only production of a supply that has no demand.

Someone producing a degradable product that has no buyers is not what is meant when discussing irrational actors.

It’s not referring to some crazy person who will just operate at a loss forever. And even if it was, they couldn’t even do it forever if they wanted to.

Dodging the question, plugging your ears, and saying, “I heard a term one time that says they could be crazy and would just keep doing it forever for no reason. Prove me wrong.” Is not the gotcha argument you think it is.

Basic markets are not capitalism.

That’s not relevant. This issue is more basic than that. It’s the most basic.

Out of morbid curiosity. Hypotheticaly, why or how do you think a producer would continue to operate at full scale with no buyers?

You still don’t understand basic markets, huh. That’s unfortunate.

Waste of internet bandwidth. I don’t like hearing about narcissists flopping their prangus around in their chairs.
