I learned about exponential backoff while trying to figure this out
Warped, stretched and joined them using Reaper into one big file called
everybreakbeat-160bpm.wavso you can chop anywhere on a downbeat at either 80 or 160bpm and get something going.
is a youtube channel with a bunch of perfecly cut loops on it i recently found out about early this week.

Trying to find if i can switch from ALSA to pulse audio in the renoise.xml config. alsa doesn't share audio so when I have reaper running and try to open renoise it poops its pants and I have to go in and manually switch the driver to something that isnt jack (because jack isn't set up and I don't wanna have to deal with qjackctl if I don't have to).The

THE REGEX TO FIND XML TAGS:
.* is everything in the middle of the comment
optional, in command mode in vim type:
:set hlsearch
I tried sudo raspi-config to chnage display resolution but in the new 64 bit os it doesn't come installed as an option. The fix:
sudo apt install arandr
My fix for getting audio out of renoise and into reaper on linux mint didn't work on my pi. Raspberry pi switched ALSA for pulse audio so snd-loopback isn't fount in the script

Orico HDD enclosure 2189U3-BK-BP. too bad. It was on sale I should've maybe just spent 5 bucks more and gotten something that works. (maybe that one would also not work?) The jms578 and jms579 JMicron chips I think aren't compatible. Its slower than running off a micro sd unfortunately and other times it just doesn't boot up.
Forum post about a fix involving disabling UAS USB SATA cable fix by leepsvideo on youtubehis fix involves using lsusb to get the numbers to add to the /boot/cmdline.txt (spaces are fine but no newlines.) what i would put for the orico (it still didn't work)
usb-storage.quirks=0080:a001
I think I read somewhere that the Pi boots from the blue USB ports only maybe Il try the other ones and see if that works, then maybe a powered hub before giving up and returning it.. or maybe il see if i can run linux mint on my other computer with it
I got it to work on the other USB ports but not reliably on the blue ones

on iPhones it's annoying when you try to select a photo and it starts grabbing text but sometimes its really useful. like for screenshotting error logs and chatgpting them
just installed xorg-xserver and i3 onto a Kingston A400 SSD for my pi4 running a fresh install of lite Raspberry pi64. I3 uses i3-sensible-terminal for the terminal which references some terminal on your system but i forgot what it was.
The terminal is uxterm
The fix:
vim ~/.Xresources
UXTerm*faceName: Monospace
UXTerm*faceSize: 12
xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
extract it to this directory
~/.local/share
add yabridge to your path in .bashrc
export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/share/yabridge"
How to use:
yabridgectl add '/home/mint/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/VstPlugins/'yabridgectl syncfor yabridge add make sure its the path you've got your vsts. you might need to change it if you have them somewhere different
So I installed catalina style ones on my pi4, But on my mint-air I tried the breeze Icons. They are a little crispier than the mac ones might just go with those. Also saw these ones with rounded corners maybe I'll take those ones for a spin.
Breeze Rounded Corners - XFCE Look.org Breeze Icons on GithubWith the default keybindings, you can press i to show hidden files. Alternatively, you can set the show_hidden option.
If you installed a new font int ~/.local/share/fonts but they still aren't showing up you gotta do this:
fc-cache -fv
put them in in ~/.local/share/icons (the hidden directory inside your home directory not /usr/local so you dont need to sudo move it after all)
OS Catalinahere are the links from that vid description in
alias tube='yt-dlp "$(xclip -o -selection clipboard)" -o - | mpv - --force-seekable=yes'
using yewtube to search, pressing x 1 selects the first option and copys it to clipboard, here im using xclip so when I ad this to my .bashrc when i run the alias tube it uses the xclip url as an argument passed into the script
I was having trouble with the old version of yt-dl beingused to open links with mpv and I tried symlinking the new one over the old one but that fix didn't end up working for me. Its been bugging me for a while because other players like ytfzf also depend on the old version that were broken because of the old package
There are 2 cli apps I used for this
using bluetoothctl:
scan on
pair (address)
enter the code on keyboard + press enter
before it wasn't showing the code to enter and it was just failing to connect without warning in i3 desktop butafter trusting it in blueman-applet it worked? i was about to go into the settings and just enable everything but I guess I didn't need to resort to that
this should work with the edge cases. my old one would get choked up processing h2s and make would poop its pants and i'd have to manally rerun my automation. hopefull this fixes it. also i hadded some debugging checks that go off when i send to give a lil info incase it doesn't go through just to help me see whats goin' on better.

move over brackets (vim is still classic though) Its got emmet, live server and a decent dark theme out of the box
Pulsar's download pageMaybe (probably) not best practices but at least it this allows you to work with the folder. By Default its wayy too locked down where you can't even delete the default files that come with xampp or install anything into the folder. I was trying to install wordpress before and because I had no read/write permissions it was broken. Here is my fix on linux where lampp is in opt/lamp. If you are on a raspberry pi I think its in /var/www/html
sudo chown -R YOURUSERNAMEGOESHERE:daemon /opt/lampp/htdocs
sudo chmod -R 775 /opt/lampp/htdocs
I really Like the colors luke smith picked out for his website based.cooking.Looking at the stylesheet I noticed he actually used named webcolors instead of rgb or hex colors
Last time I checked Sean Wrona was the man with the highscore in endurance typing of 174 over 50mins. If I wanted to churn through 20,000 words in an hour Id need to type roughly around 333wpm.
Kind of reminds me of that video where they try to calculate how hard would you need to slap chicken to cook it (food theorists say 1 3725mph slap) or how many slaps it would take? (in 2021 Lois Weisz said 135,000 slaps for 6-8 hours)
