North Korean soldiers face first combat in Russia's Kursk region: reports
  • No obviously the forces of Ukraine would be scared once he rode in on his unicorn.

  • FYI regarding microKORG, USB MIDI and Minilogue XD
  • Good tip. Many devices have built inn Midi interface capabillities. This is a good hack for those who want to use a daw or computer sequencer with midi devices as well, without a dedicated midi interface.

  • Windows 10 only has a year of support: 12 months left to keep Copilot off your desktop or learn Linux
  • Virtual environments are really not viable for music production. Latency and other inconsistensies makes it a no-go.

    High level Music production requires very low audio and input latency in addition to consistent and 100% accurate sound reproduction.

    A virtual environment is a wildcard here that I at least would not bother trying to make work. (Not saying it can't be done, just saying it would potentially be a big headache and extremely conditioned on spesific hardware, drivers and configuration settings.)

  • Evening Jam 14 - Summer Vibes - EP133, MICROMONSTA 2, Exquis. MPE performance.

    This one started out in my backyard, deciding I wanted to try to sample my ukulele on the EP133. It then sorta just grew into this summer track.

    Setup: EP133: Ukulele sample, drums and a few other samples. Micromonsta 2: Leads, custom patches by me. Exquis: Midi controller in MPE mode controlling the MM2.

    MM2 goes into the input on the EP133. Recorded directly into OBS on a Motu M2 interface. Postproduction: Slight EQ adjustments in Davinci Resolve before render.

    Anthony Fauci says Trump dropped F-bombs during 2020 COVID call
  • Wow.. can we focus on the actual outrageous and horrible things this man did... Like commit fellonies for instance.

    I mean he has done and said so much actual fucked up shit, it already waters down the impact, no need to contribute to it being diluted further...

  • xkcd #2940: Modes of Transportation
  • If you are traveling across the Atlantic to get from Los Angeles to New York i would argue that you are traveling the wrong way...

  • xkcd #2940: Modes of Transportation
  • Yes, and?

    The point of distance is to take it into aggregate, for both modes of transport.

    This is in fact the exact point i am making.

    Per trip measurement implies that every trip (regardles of time or distance traveled) has equal danger.

  • xkcd #2940: Modes of Transportation
  • I sort of answered this somewhere else but i will reiterate.

    Using this metric you are sort of assuming all trips are equal. No matter how short, or long you are assuming the base danger is the same. This means that driving 100 meters is just as dangerous as driving for a whole day. (See what the problem is?)

    And if we look at this premise in isolation: "Am i going to die on this trip"? If the trip is 100m, then a plane is probably out of the question either way. And if the trip is to a different country.. then hey, look at that, the sources you cited come into relevance (where pr distance a plane is safer) and you would have to calculate the danger of completing that specific trip in a car VS flying that distance with a plane.

    You are generalizing on terms that make no sense, since "total number of trips" in cars include all manner of different scenarios of some times extremely varying degree of danger. So in order to have data that is statistically relevant and in any form comparable you have to choose a different metric.

    So to answer the question again "Am i going to die on this trip?" or to extrapolate "should i drive or fly on this trip", if you cant use generic statistics, the answer will be "it depends. You have to calculate danger for the trip specifically".

  • xkcd #2940: Modes of Transportation
  • I honestly think you are showing a fundamental lack of understanding of statistics.

    "Per trip" is a horribly poor metric. Because there is a fundamental difference between a trip down to the store, or a cross country trip, even with a car. Also it would be extremely dependent on where you are going, where you live etc. etc.

    For the discussion to have any meaning you have to abstract it to a metric that makes sense for all people, or else you would have to also figure in where you usually travel, how good a driver you are etc etc etc.

    At that point its a completely meaningless semantics exercise because for instance taking a plane to work is not realy valid for me since i live in the same city as i work... Or lets do it the other way around: If i need to go to Spain tomorrow, its safer for me to fly then to drive there. (This is based on your own sources)

  • xkcd #2940: Modes of Transportation
  • I would think real statistics would be more interesting then peoples emotions when talking about what is actually dangerous.

  • xkcd #2940: Modes of Transportation
  • Very interesting 🤔

    And your point about metrics is pretty spot on.

    In the end it becomes an exercise in trying to find the metric that best supports your argument.

    We have also been jumping around a bit on geographical limitations. And in for instance Scandinavia, the original premise might be closer to real due to better road safety.

    I think implying some sort of myth or ruse is missing the mark hard on this subject.

  • xkcd #2940: Modes of Transportation
  • From your own source:

    Since 1997, the number of fatal air accidents has been no more than 1 for every 2,000,000,000 person-miles[c] flown,[citation needed] and thus is one of the safest modes of transportation when measured by distance traveled.

    So I guess this is the point you are trying to make?

  • xkcd #2940: Modes of Transportation
  • Sweden , a country of 10 million, we have about 150 people killed per year from car accidents

    Yes, and how many die every year from plane crashes in sweden?

    If we take a relatively big plane (450 passengers) as an example. One has to fall out of the sky every 3. Years to match the car accident number...

    3186 deaths over 10 years VS 1.19 million every year.

    (This is globally. Sweden and Norway(where i live) will naturally have pretty radically lower numbers then globally when it comes to road safety.)

    But look at that air travel number again: 3186. Over 10 years. Globally. Commercial Air travel is fucking safe. Its horrible for the climate. But its safe.

    Whatever way you slice those numbers it comes up air travel i safer. Feel free to find actual statistics that contradict me. :)

  • xkcd #2940: Modes of Transportation
  • This is complete horseshit.

    Are you aware how many flights take place every day?

    Vs

    How many fatal accidents pr flight?

    The fact is that almost every time a fatal accident happens in a (commercial) plane anywhere in the world, you hear about it. Because if a plane crashes a lot of people die in one dramatic (and rare) event.

    Fatal car accidents litteraly happen every minute of every day. Almost none of them go on the news. (Cause reporting them all would be impossible).

    Let me also post some sources, since you did not:

  • Sovcit sent the CEO a letter. CEOs love corresponding with sovcits.
  • This is the key. Like a lot of other such scams and conspiracies they are either by design or just "evolution" geared towards exploiting desperate and or uncritical people for the profit of snake oil salesmen.

    Like a lot of e-mail scams it actually helps if you can weed out any person that could waste your time or spread knowledge to others early in the process.

  • Sovcit sent the CEO a letter. CEOs love corresponding with sovcits.
  • So as far as I can understand there is this whole crazy convoluted thought process that is the base of the sovcit thing.

    It is conplicated and deranged but it can be boiled down to them thinking there is some sort of "cheatcode" to every interaction with public and official ententies. If they just use the right words and phrases they can get out of debt, avoid prosecution, get a free beer....

    It's all really weird and confused.

  • Evening Jam 13 - Dawless Chiptune Jam - EP133 - MicroMonsta 2 - Exquis

    This is my first attempt at a chiptune-type Jam. Thought you guys might like it :) Please don't be to harsh :)

    While not very purists in its form, and a bit liberated from limitations of any specific 8-bit system, I tried to use samples and/or create patches true to the genre.

    Evening Jam 13 - Chiptune Fun - EP133 - MicroMonsta 2 - Exquis

    This one starting out with me trying to get some retro/chiptune sounds out of the MicroMonsta 2. Then i though "hey, i bet some crunchy 8-bit drums would work great on the EP133.. then one thing led to another.. and suddenly there was a Jam :D

    Micromonsta 2: Lead and performed bass. Bitimbral set to split, so i can play both parts on the Exquis. (On the last part i set it to stack and play both presets combined)

    EP133 Drums, Sequenced Basslines + chip style arp in B section.

    Evening Jam 12 - First recorded jam with EP133. Featuring: Volca FM2 + Roland S1 (sampled) - YouTube

    This is my first recorded Jam with the EP133. I have really mixed feelings about the EP133. On one hand its really fun to play around with, and make cool beats, but at the same time i find the Live performance experience to be, tricky at best. It requires way to many simultaneous button presses to perform things, and there are not enough options for scene transitions. (I want an option to change on pattern end, not just bar/tick)

    As such this is not an optimal Jam, as i probably would have needed more time to rehearse, and in the end i also ended up cutting out a part in the middle of the video because awkward transitions and overall performance was not interesting to listen to.

    I'm not quite ready to give up on the EP133, but I think i would need some really substantial software updates to be properly useful for me, and not just something fun to goof around with.... The frustrations in live play just makes me want to put it away and pull out the Circuit Tracks. :/

    This was a really fun setup. I just recently got the Intuitive Instruments Exquis and this is my first real Jam with it. The expressiveness of the Exquis combined with the nice flow working with the Circuit tracks made this setup very fun to work with.
