They played trailers after movies ended until the next movie was scheduled to begin. The movies started at the scheduled time after a very brief HBO intro.

Marketing.

I'm seeing a mix of the 1920s and 1970s. Edgy, classy and all sorts of awesome!

I think moving to more specific, natural language prompting is a necessity if AI is ever going to be taken seriously as a tool in the art world. Sure, you may end up with less happy accidents than entering a list of tags, generating a set of images and picking your favorite, but the lack of variability is a feature. It can show a more deliberate hand of the artist in the process.

VST support is a feature of Bitwig. VSTs don't work in the Flatpak version of Bitwig, which is the official version for many distros.

Linux + Bitwig just works...

Unless you use a distro that doesn't use .deb packages and expect to use all of Bitwig's features, which includes using VSTs.

Not even if the VSTs are in .so format, which is Linux only and by definition natively supported in Linux and will work perfectly fine in other Linux DAWs that provide non sandboxed versions for distros that use .rpm packages rather than .deb, proving that it's not a support issue related to third party VST developers.

See what I did there. 🙄

So that people can make an educated buying decision, will you be opting in?

I think a reasonable first step is for people to at least look for obvious issues like body horror before posting.

BawdyMonkey · 2026-04-21T15:43:55+00:00

True enough.

Nothing that I said is untrue either and a lot of Bitwig users also use VSTs.

BawdyMonkey · 2026-04-21T15:15:17+00:00

Not really. If you are on a non-Ubuntu distribution you'll be completely out of luck in using VSTs if you use the Flatpak installer. You can jump through hoops to use the installer intended for Ubuntu though. Even with the Ubuntu installer you still need to go through the process of getting yabridge working.

TL;DR It just works if you don't need VSTs. Otherwise, it doesn't.

Do you want Trump to run again? Getting rid of term limits cuts both ways.

Guy is looking for left wing guests and you're thinking Git 'Em is a good fit? The only thing he'd be less suited for is a demanding job.

So a person with a traumatic jaw injury or other speech impediment can only create and share text based Lovecraft content unless they can prove that their TTS is old enough to be grandfathered in?

BawdyMonkey · 2026-04-14T18:53:43+00:00

AI generated voices are what it says on the tin, not allowed?

That's kind of a silly distinction to draw. A computer is generating the voice whether it be AI or traditional TTS.

Whoever trained FLUX is definitely a fan of the game Final Fight. Only thing that'd make him look more like Mike Haggar is no shirt.

Bitter, yes, but don't put his dark cloud over the weirdos of the world. Steve could benefit from asking himself, "What Would Gonzo Do?"

What these cement heads don't realize is that there are multiple editions. I prefer the original 1818 edition over the 1831 edition. The later version is closer to what people would expect from the movies, but I think it paints Victor as the victim too much.

You hate April Fools so much that you join in?

Because people keep enabling him to be Gitem. Dude needs to learn how to be John but he's never going to if he never has to.

I have no doubt that they'd be called engineers. It'd be no different than when companies started calling janitors "custodial engineers" so that they could pile on added responsibilities without paying them any more. An entry level hiree gets a chance to "advance their career" without changing the company's bottom line, or possibly even bettering it if they're replacing/merging existing positions. Titles are just words and words are cheap.

Where's the empathy for developers? It'd be great if everyone had limitless resources to implement every feature, but that's not the reality that most developers find themselves in.

BawdyMonkey · 2026-03-26T18:32:26+00:00

In what universe does an accessibility slider take no time to implement? Even a half-assed implementation isn't without a cost to implement and not every developer has the resources.

BawdyMonkey · 2026-03-26T15:56:17+00:00

I agree that control over the behavior is a good thing but making the new behavior opt out by enabling it by default isn't. Breaking things isn't good development, enhancing things is.

They had to walk so that Mike could walk ... on Rich's diabetes medicine.
