A weakness of the SFZ sampler format is that for normal humans, it is difficult to write the code required to do more than basic key mapping. Most SFZ files don’t include midi CC & modulation capabilities, because these are defined in the code

Solution: Use a synth or sampler plugin that doesn’t rely on SFZ for these things:

* TX16Wx
* TAL-Sampler
* Altitude
* Bliss
* Serum 2
* Falcon
* ….etc

Should I Stay or Should I Go Now? 30 Days Until Martial Law...? (By Jessica Wildfire • 20 Mar 2025.) the-sentinel-intelligence.net/ Salacious title, but worryingly possible.

"Meanwhile, corporate media asks, “Can he do that?” These stories are engineered to distract the public with technicalities. While everyone’s debating what they can and can’t do, they are doing it.

We know this administration’s pattern of loose interpretation when it comes to law and historical precedent. There’s no reason to believe he’ll stop here, instead using this act to use force against anyone his administration considers a threat, regardless of their status or what they’re protesting.

You also have to remember this country has a long, established history of censoring speech and leading witch hunts. During WWI, god help you if you didn’t buy enough liberty bonds or called yourself a pacifist.

We’re the land of moral panics.

Every single one of this administration’s actions have been building toward this moment, when the president suspends our civil and human rights. It explains why they’ve taken such aggressive action toward federal agencies, firing tens of thousands of workers and purging their ranks of anyone who might say no. They’ve already been testing boundaries, daring courts to stop them as they shut down government operations and kidnap U.S. citizens."

Willkommen zum #Telekolleg #Widerstand Thema heute: #Fahrradweg selbermachen! 🚲🛣️
Die Fahrbahn wird von hinten gesichert mit einem Absperrgitter oder Menschen in Warnwesten. Dann malt mensch (am besten auch in 🦺 ) mit weißer Farbe gestrichelte Linien auf die Straße. Pro-Tipp: verwendet ein Seil, damit die Striche gerade werden. Nicht vergessen, in regelmäßigen Abständen das Fahrradsymbol aufzusprühen! Darunter gerne W^💜 für den Wiedererkennungswert 😉

Here's a KDE Plasma 6 power feature you probably had no idea existed.

Hit Meta+T on your keyboard.

You can define tiles on each of your screens.

Now grab a window and hold shift - it will snap to the closest tile!

This way you can arrange windows on your screen(s) in a way that will keep them sharing your screen's area without ever overlapping.

Doing this manually always took so much time and was so fiddly...

You're welcome!

The secret to the perfect #australian #accent is to take words with 'Long-A' sounds and substitute them with 'Long-I' sounds. For example:

Day -> Dye
Hate -> Hite
Tomato -> Tom-eye-to
Gatorade -> Guy-torade
Complaint -> Compl-eye-nt

You throw in a couple of aussie-drawl 'Yeea mite' s in there with the above, and people will swear you're from The Gold Coast.
