I am keeping this post unpaywalled, on a permanent basis. It’s a pretty photo and I’m sure most people won’t venture beyond that, since we live in a busy, chaotic world, but I’m posting it and pinning it as an intro to my writing for those few who do... tomcox.substack.com/p/the-villag...

Our real economy transformed. We became a "warehouse economy." The largest employers? Walmart and Amazon. We primarily store and sell goods made elsewhere, while our domestic production base hollowed out. 6/

The ARP 2600 is a subtractive synthesizer first produced by ARP Instruments, Inc in 1971. Is this the holy grail of analog? This video demonstrates maximum polyphony: 2 voices for duophonic. Normally monophonic. Just beautiful! #arp2600 #arp-2600 #arp youtu.be/gmprdlFykJs

The idea that Bluesky is insular and X is a place for diverse views is a fallacy.

X is based on an algorithm rigged to push the views of Musk and others on the far right.

Bluesky is open. You can make it whatever you want it to be.
