  • Everything in the cloud is their property. And everything works in the cloud, so. Yeah. Cloud software is awesome. Pay per month, everything you make isn’t your property. It’s double penetration without lube, while all you wanted to do is some photo editing or illustrating.

    Piracy is the answer. Back in the days you would miss out on things when pirating, compared to the purchased version. Now you’re missing out when you pay, compared to piracy. Why would I pay to have more restrictions and less rights then when I pirate for free? When I get caught with an illegal copy of photoshop, whatever I created will still be my property. I’ll get a fine, but still have more rights then a paying customer.

    It’s a fucking dystopian world we live in.

    If the person who died in Disneyland due to their allergy never used Disney+ but would have illegally downloaded a Disney movie instead, the lawsuit wouldn’t have been rejected by Disney as they never lost their rights by agreeing to their terms of service.

    I rather have the risk to get a fine for illegal downloading then to pay to lose my rights.

    So whenever there’s an open source project, no matter how imperfect it may be, to help people achieve their goal without mega corporate rape, I wouldn’t dare say anything bad about it. I don’t want to pirate, I feel like I have no choice and open source projects like Gimp are a great alternative. Also, I don’t mind paying for something if it would become my property and I would keep my rights and privacy.

    I’m claiming the problem is self-made and kept intact by most Americans and violence (in this case murder) isn’t the answer and you compare me to a racist. Instead of personally attacking me, you could have come with supported counter arguments but so far you only came with “people their feelings” and “you argue like a racist”. Have you ever thought of a political career?

    First everyone votes for worse healthcare and more money and power to mega corps like healthcare companies and people like this murdered CEO, than kill this guy because of the corrupt healthcare system while antivax RFK will be health minister in a month. But yeah, murdering people is good news. Enjoy the fun.

    As soon as a Healthcare system is put in place, people en masse voted to have it removed. Instead of voting for a stronger social system so poor and sick will have support instead of being thrown out on the streets and kept poor, people vote for a president ensuring the extremity rich get even more rich and the poor even more poor. I do feel for the people who are the victim of this all, and I know many didn’t vote for this. But also many did. It’s a country where people love to dig their own grave, and even vote to have their shovel taken away so they will have to continue to dig by hand. Although many didn’t want this, the entire population voted democratically (although the voting system is corrupt too) to keep the rich and the corruption in power. Now with RFK as a health minister, like that’s going in the right direction. To the unfortunate people who voted against but we’re the minority, I would love to invite you here in Europe. We do have social safety nets and although they aren’t perfect, at least they exist and you won’t be charged 20k for an ambulance drive you have to wait for, for 5 hours due to a lack of them. Here it’s 5 to max 10min and insured.

    Then something else. Someone kills a CEO with a gun. The fact anyone can have military grade weapons is one of the reasons people get injured and killed, so they need insurance. It’s one of the biggest source of major issues, like school shootings for example. Now the CEO gets killed. Violence is never the answer, it only makes everything worse I nthe end. This CEO will be replaced by another one, with a better security detail. The fact that Americans always use violence is so extremity dumb and is why am extremity dangerous former fuck up will be president AGAIN next month. Because of hate and the idea violence is the answer. When you think murdering someone is justified, you’re no better then the asshole getting shot. There’s a justice system for a reason, you shouldn’t act as your own judge and executioner. (ok to be fair, the US justice system is corrupt AF).

    So I so have sympathy for the the victims who didn’t vote for this. I do not for the people who did.

    I am getting so annoyed a CEO being shot in the US creates this mono hyper focus on it, as if there’s nothing else in the world, while at the same time there’s a genocide happening (funded by the US by the way) among other major world issues and conflicts making the world tension roughly the same level as the 1930’s. But many Americans voted to increase support for Israel, so fuck them. There’s the usual doom scrolling on many social media platforms. But as soon as something happens in the US, the entire focus of everything and everyone is on it. I hate it, if I want to see it I’ll watch Idiocracy or something but I’m done with all the stupidity, hate and violence in that fucked up country.

    Please, leave the subject alone too. 90% or Lemmy is about the shooting. The world is bigger then an asshole getting shot.

    Someone got shot. Ok, sure, it happens, it’s the US, who gives a shit anymore, the country is fucked up, it’s healthcare system always has been, we fucking know already.

    It’s fine to have a news article and some funny memes, but hundreds of memes is a bit overkill I’d say. I’ve seen many memes about his clothes already, so even that isn’t original anymore. Lemmy really is a mono culture, it’s a bit sad rly. It mainly focuses on the stupidity of the US, which is funny, I know, but a bit more variety wouldn’t mind. It gets old rly fast.



  • Yeah, in the 3rd party program I also see my mouse, keyboard, Webcam, headset, external sound card, Bluetooth dongle, etc listed which I need to remove to get my minilogue within the first 10 devices. I just don’t bother anymore, I live with the onboard digital oscillator and effect presets and won’t change any of those. The machine is awesome though, wouldn’t change it for anything. But the software support is so shit I just don’t use it anymore haha


  • Do you mean USB devices? Because yeah, that’s a Korg thing. Removing the devices doesn’t work for me, I have to delete the data with a 3rd party program, then connect the Korg as one of the first 10 devices while my usb hub is in the back of my synth tower. Next time I boot up my pc, all usb devices are mixed again so big chance the korg is number 23 or something again, making me redo every step. This is why I never have my Minilogue XD updated or why I change banks or effects on it.
