And just like that, we suddenly love our bullshit jobs! It is absolutely inevitable and this is uninformed Fox News level drivel. We should focus our energy on using this technology to shape the world in a beneficial way instead of capitulating in advance. Industrial capacity is paramount

I am frankly more concerned about the apathy of the American public and even more importantly the lack of leadership in the Democratic Party.

This is not a dress rehearsal. Every single American must speak out against this Facist administration.

If the interface is USB class compliant, Linux usually works flawlessly.

Good brands:
• RME
• MOTU
• Focusrite (most models)
• Audient
• Behringer

Bad cases:
• Interfaces requiring proprietary drivers
• Some complex DSP mixers

My no fuss minimal config recommendation would be to start with: Bitwig, VST3, Ubuntu studio & PipeWire with JACK compatibility (comes as preconfigured default in Ubuntu Studio) combined with a compatible usb audio device

Audio interfaces from brands like RME, Focusrite, and MOTU are now well-supported, especially via class-compliant USB.

PipeWire (2020s) replaced PulseAudio and JACK in many setups, merging consumer and pro audio into one backend with low-latency performance and sandboxing.

ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) has been stable and mature for years.

Almost missed the part you asked about..

Native DAWs: Ardour, Reaper (Linux port), Bitwig, & Zrythm

Plugin Standards: LV2 plugin format, VST3 & CLAP

Pro Audio Stack: JACK Audio Connection Kit (JACK) became a low-latency audio backbone & offer precise routing and sync between apps and hardware.

He already left some Kurds in a lurch the last time around. Why not do it again? He probably doesn’t even know if they are the same Kurds he screwed the last time or not. Nor does he care

My notes from recent research on audio Linux setups:

Distros like AV Linux, Ubuntu Studio, and Fedora Jam bundle low-latency kernels, real-time audio tools, and optimized settings.

Generic distros (Arch, Debian, etc.) offer audio workflows via community packages and real-time kernel options.

He seems like a really genuine dude and he has been saying all the right stuff. I'm not sure you watched his recent speeches but he is advocating for fully prosecuting the Trump admin and separating church/state. The religious preacher thing is exactly what is needed to break the back of MAGA.

Certainly doesn't sound like it. Fully expect the disinformation bots to go hard on this line though

Europeans are just going to have to suck up the energy price increases, refugees ands destabilising effects on society again!? Or are we not allowed to extrapolate consequences? Is that wrongthink?

It risks more than a regional war and we have to cut ties with the countries that keep on bringing crisis after crisis to our doorstep

I know tech and engineering looks straight forward from the outside but it's not. Hydrogen takes up way too much space and is really really hard to contain in the tank when pressurised as it's molecules are so small that it diffuses through the material that stores it. This makes the tanks brittle.

Progress requires nuanced understanding. Cars connected to the hive mind is not progress as it creates the apparatus to remove our hard fought freedoms. I am a techno-optimist. I build AI apps and have been working with AI since way before the current hype phase. Good outcomes require good design.

So easy right? No massive barriers to either of those two technologies. Just flick the switch. Hydrogen is a failed technology in any case with insurmountable technical challenges so the fact you suggest it says everything

Scientific American has updated the figure, now grouped into swimmers, fliers, walkers/runners, and vehicles. A person on a bicycle remains the most efficient way to travel, compared to all forms of biological locomotion and mechanical transport.

US: assassinate the leaders of an Iran.
Iran: **retaliates**
BBC Headline: 'All red lines have been crossed': Gulf states weigh response to Iranian strikes

What is wrong with the propagandists at the #BBC. Do they think we are idiots?
