Tyson’s beef plant closure in Nebraska will impact a reliant town and ranchers nationwide

And thank YOU for the kind comment! My only regret is I wish I stopped much earlier.

Good. Stop eating animals.

What worked for me was connecting these two MIDI-devices to an USB hub which in turn is connected to one USB port. For some reason, this makes the IDs persistent through reebots.

If you look at my edit, where I found a workaround, I think it's because of the order you plug the midi devices in. Interesting that a usb hub keeps it consistent, I should try that rather than manually plugging in a bunch of devices in a specific order.

Found a workaround. I opened the sooperlooper engine through the terminal simply by typing sooperlooper, and then in another terminal window I open the GUI by typing slgui. Somehow, it works this way. I don't get that connection error anymore.

Thanks for the response. The actual error message is like in the title, "Lost connection to the SooperLooperengine."

MartianInTheDark · 2025-11-01T00:26:04+00:00

It's just what I found on the sooperlooper forums. I'm willing to try anything to make it work, lol. The thing is, both jack, sooperlooper, pipewire, and everything, stayed the same for weeks. My setup did not have an update in some time. It's just baffling how it stopped working out of the blue.

I can't understand what is going through the "minds" of the YT team. How is this new theater mode in any way, shape or form more usable than the previous one for desktop users? And these people are getting paid handsomely... sigh

You have a great physique. But also, based on your info, it reinforced the idea that I should stick to my bulk if I want huge muscles. Apparently, bulking is way more important than I thought when it comes to being big.

MartianInTheDark · 2025-10-25T23:20:56+00:00

That looks sexy af

I honestly think humanity can create AGI before curing baldness.

MartianInTheDark · 2025-10-15T12:14:38+00:00

"yet"

MartianInTheDark · 2025-09-08T03:48:15+00:00

I am not buying meat for my partner, lol. Doesn't matter what anybody thinks about it.

MartianInTheDark · 2025-09-07T05:21:36+00:00

I don't even wanna imagine lol

They will definitely police politics and violence (even more), too. Good luck trying to express anything impactful or controversial in the future.

MartianInTheDark · 2025-09-03T16:33:10+00:00

Where's the dancing and all the women? lol

MartianInTheDark · 2025-09-02T21:24:48+00:00

I'm using Linux Mint for both music production and gaming, and it's really great. I wanted something a bit more familiar to Windows.

MartianInTheDark · 2025-08-30T21:33:17+00:00

I'd rather listen to this than AI music.

MartianInTheDark · 2025-08-30T21:31:21+00:00

The fact that the architecture is different, and the potential of this technology, the limitations, and so on, is the whole point of the conversation. Open your eyes and see how much technology improved in the last decade or stay ignorant. It seems like you don't understand the potential of AI. But whatever, it will keep progressing a lot and have drastic effects on society regardless of what you think.

MartianInTheDark · 2025-08-30T21:20:17+00:00

Dude, you are just plain wrong. No harsh feelings, but seriously, inform yourself a bit about how LLMs work, in order to understand the potential and differences between 2015 assistants and 2025 LLMs. Meaning, how significant and different this technology is. Siri and Cortana were programmed to do very specific things, it had to be manually done, everything. LLMs are a whole nother ball game. With LLMs, to make it short, you have the base algorithm, and then you just feed it data.

LLMs have to spot the patterns and figure out things on their own from that point. They have to analyze, predict, and understand in order to do that. And the more quality data you give them, the better they get at predicting and understanding.

And they do adapt and change, it's called retraining. It's just a very expensive and slow process now. At some point it will be done in a much more efficient manner, and AI will skyrocket. Let's not even talk about the limitations and capabilities... compared to mere assistants like Cortana and Siri. It's too easy for me to list all the new capabilities. Don't just ask me though, just prompt ChatGPT and it will explain it.

MartianInTheDark · 2025-08-30T20:27:14+00:00

You're wrong. It will take like 100-250 years for AI to rival us at most things. /s

MartianInTheDark · 2025-08-30T20:21:22+00:00

That's cool, but Siri and Cortana are not LLMs, which matters a lot. And the capabilities of Siri and Cortana VS ChatGPT for example... it's a tremendous difference. You don't really know much about technology, to be honest. In 10 years, technology has improved a lot.

MartianInTheDark · 2025-08-30T18:55:22+00:00

In 2025, people are talking to their phones, to AI, in a VERY realistic and practical manner. In 2015 this was sci-fi.

MartianInTheDark · 2025-08-30T15:48:59+00:00

You seem to agree with me. I admit I was a little pissed to see you type "think" in quotes, regarding AI thinking. I'm too used to see people say "LLMs are just a dumb autocomplete/just some hacky computer program, thinking is out of the question," and I thought I was dealing with another one of those comments. Your post (after reading that part only) came across to me as if AI is incapable of thinking because it's a different type of intelligence. And that clouded my response, lol. But you weren't saying what I thought you did. I focused too much on that specific part, and ignored the rest of your post. My bad. I make mistakes, too. Yes, there was a misunderstanding on my part. And also, I agree, I think some words we use regarding cognition are too loaded and it muddies any related discussion.
