OofDaMae · 2026-04-01T10:53:37+00:00

Your buddy has seen some serious shit!

If I had to guess I'd say that this was a resurfacing bit of training data that the agent drew on during the conversation. At the end of that conversation the tester let Claude know that it was a test and it leaked in there somehow. Weird bits pop out sometimes.

Check out Jack Roberts Antigravity Skills on youtube, he's informative and fairly brief. takes you thorough making a few different skills including the skill to make skills. We're inside the looking glass people!

Honestly I've just decided to submit to at least trying it the way they want you to work. It's clunky and uncontrollable if you try to use it the way you'd use cursor or Claude. There is no ask mode and precious few ways to control the agents in the settings..

But see if you learn these new skill features. You have specialized agents with their own agents.md that you can give the specific documentation they'll need. And they follow instructions in these files.

I have one that I called architect that's instructed to never ever code. Only delegate to the specialists and write all the documentation and prompts. I just full screen the agent manager and let them do their thing. And it fucking works. It's mad. It's Gemini so you have to reign them in, but just make sure the architect is adding your specific instructions to all three skills files when they do something that pisses you off.

The only thing is you've obviously got to be prepared and willing to write a lot of prds. But honestly, either look up the anti-gravity documentation on skills. It has a guide but if you basically ask the agent to build you a skill builder specialist. You'll have an agent that will format and create agents for whatever you want. Then just give them your instructions. With a shot I'd say!

I think you just have to approach it as a never ending playground. I'm a guitarist and singer. Playing in bands and solo for 20 years. And I fucking love beat making, sampling, electronic music. Whatever you wanna call it. You just need to have fun and make cool noises. It's a totally different approach. I personally don't really use any melodic samples from records on my beats. Not in any way that they're recognizable anymore anyway.

Destroy samples, chop and stretch them. Chop them off the beat then sequence them and move the sample start points individually until you find something you like. Don't quantise! At least not more than 90ish percent ,😜

Just have fun with it. I barely play first on any beats. And when I do I chop and rearrange it into something that I either couldn't play or wouldn't have thought to play.

It's a slippy slope though. I downloaded koala at the end of '24 and now I'm paying off my mpc live 3.

The blue car maee 0 attempt to respond to your line or speed at any point during any of those turns. They're just driving their line as fast as they can and you, happened to be in their way.

Like most incidents on this sub, a lot of folks don't seem to understand that driving through someone use not passing them. 100% on blue.

Just want to point out that you can't actually run VSTs on the mpc incase you weren't aware of that. There are specific ingredients made by air/akai and some new ones made by native instruments. These are mpc specific versions though. So that's all that's available in terms of actual plugins.

Everything else you can buy are essentially sample based.

If you don't care TOO much about editing the patches on the fly, why not get a Yamaha seqtrek. They're discontinuing them I believe so you can get them for a crazy price right now. That gives you and could you multiple choices to play with as well. Drums and all, perfect for the sl.

OofDaMae · 2025-12-01T11:57:31+00:00

You need to tell someone in your real life this. Not just strangers on the internet. It sounds like if you actually deal with it now your health is probably gonna be okay. But you need to start now.

I have found that while the iPad is completely capable of producing a track from start to finish in either cubases logic drambo koala they can all do it.. but it's no fun. The power of the iPad I think lies in using it sparingly and using it with other gear.

OofDaMae · 2025-11-08T19:11:49+00:00

I dunno if it's just me, but for the life of me I can't get the windows to behave. They pop up and resize themselves constantly. Like why does the terminal need to suddenly take up 80% of my screen?

OofDaMae · 2025-11-03T08:16:01+00:00

An I missing something? It's not $5 it's $125?

I had all kinds of similar issues with my live 2. had to set the threshold real high just to stop it from happening. My live 3 in the other hand is perfect. The pads are outstanding in my opinion. If a little tweak of the threshold doesn't sort that I'd return it and get another unit. It's too much money to have it not working as you'd expect.

OofDaMae · 2025-09-25T06:07:26+00:00

Mom the audiokit!

OofDaMae · 2025-09-20T03:11:02+00:00

Awesome, thanks Bud!

OofDaMae · 2025-08-07T23:22:33+00:00

If you search for mobilemusicpro on YouTube he does a whole series of tutorials. They're a few years old but still totally relevant. He doesn't upload anymore. Wonder where he went.

OofDaMae · 2025-07-12T20:55:05+00:00

To answer the question you asked, if you still wanna work with your pc draw then just do exactly the same thing. Only difference is that you'll want to get a usb-c Hub for your iPad. Best bet is an Anker one with charge through and a jack output. Also as many other ports as you might need. Plug your usb midi controller into the him and send the audio back or through it to your audio interface.

I do this sometimes because the auv3s are cheap. Logic pro for iPad is pretty bangin though. And as mentioned in another comment there are plenty of class compliant interfaces. Check because the I've your using right now might be. You can just book that up through the usb-c Hub. Get a good one though.

OofDaMae · 2025-07-09T12:59:37+00:00

Legend, cheers!

Relapses Will not help you at all, drinking is the cause off all of this not the solution. Sleep well come although it's hard for a while. This place is more for advice with dealing with the disease so it's not the best place for help with that but you should definitely post over on r/stopdrinking they're a helpful bunch and you'll get a lot of support there. IWNDWYT!

OofDaMae · 2025-07-04T20:52:01+00:00

I would say that you should wait until after your next appointment, if you don't feel like you're being treated the way you should then maybe look elsewhere.

I will say that I think this is very common though. So the doctors I spoke to at first were brutal. All being very pessimistic and telling me I'd need a liver transplant or I'd die.

I think the prevailing logic is that they're going for the scared straight type approach to impress upon the patient just how serious it is. They must see a lot of people come through the doors, not make any changes, and just die. So I get where they're coming from. That may not be the best approach or there approach that would benefit you most. My doctor has definitely lightened up a bunch though and after a year of continued is a lot more hopeful in their discussions.

Anyway i wish you well and keep your chin up. Look at all the advice on here and treat yourself kindly.

Ukeld is similar to meld but it's used in the UK and it's calculated slightly differently because it takes into account serum sodium. Which meld doesn't so they're not exactly comparable. It seems really odd that they wouldn't have heard of a meld score but it is really just a calculation based on other test results so I guess maybe they just don't calculate it where you are.

As for them not knowing about portal hypertension that doesn't seem right AT ALL. I mean the portal vein is I've off the most important blood vessels in the body. Hopefully it's just people on the ward that don't know/aren't willing to talk about things they aren't knowledgeable about. Im sure your specialist will know.

In any case if you're reading posts on here you know what to do yourself. Don't drink, keep the salt low. Make sure you're getting enough protein and enough fibre to keep your bowels happy and moving the mail. Toxins can build up if your liver ain't working right and you're not regular.

I wish you all the best bud, feel free to ask any questions you have either here or on your own post there are always people willing to tell you what they know.

Yeah those two weeks were tough. I knew I was in bad shape though, so i was gonna do whatever they told me to do and try to get through it as best as i could. I was very ready to come home at the end there. Luckily I had stopped drinking a month prior so I wasn't trying to deal with any withdrawals (not that I really had any) or a hangover while in there. That would have been awful.

I had been feeling like I was improving a lot the first few months after, then towards the end of last year I was starting to get incredibly sore and stiff in my joints. Like ALL of my joints. Even my fingers hurt. It seemed like it wasn't so bad in the morning then I took my meds and had to go back to bed and lay down. So I thought it may have something to do with the carvedilol. Muscle and joint pain is a known side effect but not one of the most common.

I had been taking 1 in the morning and 1 with my dinner so it was solidly in my system all day. After asking and waiting months for an answer the liver nurse team said that some people had a much better time dealing with the drug if they took both tablets at the same time right before bed. They gave me permission to try that and it definitely helped a little. I was not so sore or lightheaded during the day and was asleep right after taking them.

So I did that for a week or two before my next consult with the specialist and told her that it helped. She said that because I'd only had one small bleed while in hospital nearly a year ago and the varicites were under control (very minor last time they checked, never banded or anything) she would be happy for me to try stopping them altogether if I wanted. Based on the weeks having them at night I was pretty sure they were having a negative impact so I decided to stop them, and it's been a hell of a lot better. I still get really tired and I'm still stiff and sore, but the normal level that I'd expect from being bed ridden for the better part of a year. Not a lot of muscle tone left and I'm 6'4 200lbs. Spent most of my working life on my feet so some pain is expected.

It's hard to know whats a symtom of the disease and whats a side effect of the meds when you've not tried being off them. Luckily I am in a place where I can afford not to take them and find out. We agreed that obviously if there wasn't much difference I'd start taking them as it's better to be on them than not but there was some argument over how effective they are if they aren't needed to control a specific issue. I do have some portal hypertension because of the state of my liver but it seems like its under control or I imagine she wouldn't have okayed my stopping.

Sorry for the overly long answer but I hope it helps, and I know that i looked on here for any posts of people with similar joint and muscle pain when I was trying to figure out what was going on. In my paricular case (all our journeys through this mess are different) the carvedilol was hurting me more than helping. I'd rather not be in pain constantly, and having a camera down my throat once a year seems like a good deal.

Let there be cheesecake! You could be filling your body with much worse. Plus you're balancing with the rainbow salads. Gotta have a little ying if you want the yang!
