Not sure if this is the way…

Nice! Are you using Wine or anything for the Plugins or have you found native Linux ones?

Hmm so I've concluded running Asahi Linux on an M1 Mac was the wrong route to get me off Mac OS. No shade to the Asahi team, I think they did a great job, more that the job of changing the OS on an M series Mac is very hard and Apple are cunts.

The cost of a second hand ThonkPad is significantly less than an M1 and whilst the M1 chip is amazing for music production (I still haven't maxed out a session like I used to do every day). The trade off being trapped by Apple hangs like an extra bad fart.

So what next? Well I'll be deep in Mac for at least a couple of years, it depends how much mileage I get from my 2020 machine, it's great for audio. Maybe by the time I retire it Ableton and PluginAlliance will support Linux? Or maybe I'll find tools that can replace them? (Yes I know about Bitwig but I don't have a spare £300).

Someone made an Ableton style GUI for Reaper, I need to test that. I've also seen a couple of interesting PlugIn developments on Linux this week... Ableton and VideoSync are a great combo for me and to switch I'd need alternatives at least as good. (If you know of such things I'm all ears!)

At least my Office/Internet stuff is all Linux now and I can streamline MacOS for audio only, see how much shite I can get rid off!

It's a high bar for sure but life ain't easy...

You can spend 20 years studying the intricacies of a single discipline, get a doctorate and every accolade there is, but have built it all on an incorrect premise.

While someone else can be interested only in discovering the truth of the premise, and "know more" than you after a few youtube videos.

If you start on the wrong foundation and never reassess, all the study or degrees in the world won't save you from being wrong.

Yeah, putin sent a clear msg.

JUST IN - Trump to Putin: "Vladimir, STOP!"

You should be taking creatine everyday

Trump calls Powell "major loser", says there can be a slowing of the economy unless Fed lower interest rates "NOW" adds "Powell has always been “To Late,” except when it came to the Election period when he lowered in order to help Sleepy Joe Biden, later Kamala, get elected."

🚨 #BREAKING: President Trump and the DOJ have officially asked the IRS to REVOKE Harvard University's tax exempt status

This will cost the woke college BILLIONS of dollars per year.

GOOD! That indoctrination camp doesn't deserve a single dollar from taxpayers.

Trump has already revoked BILLIONS in federal funding. Harvard is about to learn "go woke, go broke" the hard way.

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 President Trump says US is "taking in record numbers in tariffs, with the cost of almost all products going down."

JUST WIPED AN OLDER MACBOOK AIR AND THINKING LINUX MIGHT BE FUN. ANYONE LIKE WHAT THEYRE RUNNING ON SOMETHING SIMILAR? 🤙

External drives are old-school?👴

The average person can improve their privacy 10x simply by not using Gmail

Then another 10x by not using a cloud drive to store phone pictures

This is extremely achievable even for normies

To this day 26% of the world’s population opens Facebook at least once a day.
