"Instead of releasing new versions […] that would offer only marginal value to our users, we’ve made the decision to end its development."

This is a very bizarre announcement. Imagine Microsoft making this statement about Word, or Adobe about Photoshop.

Apparently, when you've had enough, you'd have enough!

I'll be uploading some #music I made in high school on my #Peertube, starting with this one.

"Midnite Azure", a 30-minute EP mostly made with #lmms. It has some weird names but I kinda like a couple of these.

(1/3) Happy #birthday to me. Time to do some shameful self promo.

@Rob299 [mastodon.world] @punkonbus1701 [tenforward.social] Oh, so true. I am a professional photog and artist, so I still keep Windows around for when I need it. Been pleasantly surprised how easy it is to keep it in a virtualized container using #QEMU #KVM where I can lock it down, tho. #security

Also pleasantly surprised how capable some of those #FOSS competitors are becoming. #Adobe and #MakeMusic might find themselves obsolete outside of corporate makers. #DarkTable, #MuseScore, and #LibreOffice nipping at their heels.

Very shameful self promo. I need to make some spare change so I'm trying to sell my #music. I'm still setting it up as I post this but if you know anyone who needs some dirt cheap #beats or looking for a music producer, it would be cool if you tell them about me.

I made a #dnb -ish remix of #LinkinPark - Breaking the Habit

My previous #intro #introduction sucks so here's a better one.

I'm an #introvert guy from #Philippines #tootSEA.
I speak #Tagalog #Filipino #English and some surface-level #programming.
Favorite color is #2FACE4.

#colorblind & possibly #agoraphobia

#introduction After decades studying music, I designed and patented a #machinelistening #technology now used to track people's mood allowing corporations to advertise to them more effectively. For this I am simultaneously proud and very very sorry.

Which may explain why I live in a cabin on the side of a mountain in northern #NewHampshire with a #rescuedog named Scully, and #makemusic in a 7.1.4 studio.

When not releasing music you’ll likely find me #camping somewhere in the #northcountry.
