In a marvellous twist of fate, Christmas Day has resolved to have no plans whatsoever. No driving to family for dinner while exhausted. No need to do much more than get up and have a super chill day.
There is a loose plan to stay in pyjamas, drink mimosas, and watch old sci-fi.

More #airwindowsconsolidated enthiusiasm from me. If you look closely at this #spectrogram for a heavily distorted #303bass you can see that the tone shaping is unique on each note (note the pattern of light and dark regions near the smeared main tones).

I've been enjoying looking at music that I like through a different lens. The #airwindowsmeter plugin (all OS/format #foss and this includes #linuxaudio) is a new way of looking mastering. I do not know what criteria was chosen to decide the different rankings […]

@bazkie have you tried the #airwindowsconsolidated plugins yet? There are some sound shaping tools that make bass and drums come alive in a delicious way that makes me think you might enjoy working with them too.

Been off Rx due to #nz stupid new rules.
I am not enjoying being grumpy, anxious and in pain so that I can reduce the risk of having my ability to drive taken from me due to the presence of THC in my body despite a complete lack of impairment.

#linux #electronicmusicproduction journey update. After my very clumsy and ruinous command entry of three days ago I am back to a fully operational setup.
A do-over meant making a couple of changes, ditching some things and discovering what had been poorly documented the first (or nth) time […]

#slowmotion water feature @kererubrewing - yes, I am working today, but only because I am out of Shepherds Ale and am going to package from keg tomorrow.
The benefit of using a 250L vessel is it takes only 90 minutes to clean, sanitise and fill vs 4 hours if I’m filling an 1800L tank.

#LinuxMint friends, I have a question for you. I've just used #timeshift to roll back my system as I had accidentally typed a stupid command into the terminal (rm -r ~) and I was worried I had removed things I shouldn't have and I rolled back to my last TimeShift snapshot.

A particularly hot and humid day for #brewing @kererubrewing . Today I’m transferring a new batch of our #kereruflyboy #gf #ricelager to the fermenter. Temperature on the brew house is well over 35C and sticky.

@DeardriuLally I'd love accept your follow request, only there is very little to see about you and your interests.
I'd love to know which #bat you like better. The #hammerheadedbat or the #nzshorttailedbat? I like the New Zealand one.
