@boggin @nicksalt JFC where is any part of this thread asking you to?

If you can’t talk about genocide without desecrating a religious symbol with the symbol of a regime & ideology that massacred a third of all Jews - imagine! -then, yes, you’re not helping and need to decide if you want to.

-Europako Batasunak isuna jarri dio Xri, besteak beste, egiaztatze markak saltzeagatik..
-Musk, noski, ez da isildu, isuna eraso pertsonaltzat hartu eta publikoki esan du Europako Batasunak desagertu beharko lukeela. (Trumpen babesarekin, noski).
-Aurrekoa nahiko ez, eta Xk blokeatu du Europako Batasuna publizitate sistematik.

My friends, thanks to your support, I've reached 800 euros. Please help me reach 1000 euros so I can buy books and clothes for university. Your support during these harsh displacement conditions is a great source of hope and the beginning of achieving my dream of studying English translation.
Please, stand with us.

I am currently preparing a mobile #Recording session on my #UbuntuStudio #Linux laptop.

I cannot over-emphasize the coolness of #Pipewire, the new Linux audio system!

So while I'm testing a couple of expensive mics with my #RME #FireFace400, the actual result is to be used as a #VoiceBox announcement.

So how to monitor this audio in a realistic way?

Well, turns out I can pair my mobile phone using #Bluetooth with Pipewire. Then I can call up myself from the mobile on my fixed line phone… and simply play back the audio from #Ardour via my mobile all the way through the lousy phone network right into my fixed line phone.

This is just amazing!

(#ffadoMixer still is inconvenient to use when compared to #TotalMix and I still have to figure out how to run it not as root, but oh well, can't have the cake and eat it, I'd say.)

EDIT… or will this go down the drain? (🧵 )
