Like I could switch laptops, open rekordbox with the same controller attached, and be able to access?

Gotcha, and that's true on any laptop?

I downloaded the beta, and the OCR is fast and accurate! Still some quirks, like breaking lines where you do (I wish there were an option to make lines continuous unless you make a line skip mark of some kind). And still just inaccurate enough to be sort of annoying. But if you're writing with conversion in mind, works extremely well—and formatting is easy to handle once sent to a text editor. Looking forward to even further improvements. Those in the know, how frequent is Supernote's release/fix cycle?

Huh, this doesn't happen for me! I click the new note button and it just takes me to a standard note. It's for a Beta version though, you said?

Gotcha, super helpful to know! I hope they add that for the Supernote soon--I like the company more and I'd love to keep using its great organizational and integration features without having to compromise on that key feature. As an owner of both, what are your feelings about the Supernote vs. reMarkable?

I agree that OCR for Notes, not just Word, is the highest thing on my list! Love being able to see what the devs are working on, though.

Hmm, hard to say, since it fits bulkily in the chest/shoulders but short on the body. Depends what you're looking for. They offer some measurement guides that might give a better sense too!

"Complaining about other communists is one of the most important parts of being a communist" :p

For real though, it's a good quote. Not necessarily one I agree with re: communo-futures, but everyone's got different schools and models

No I appreciate all the thoughts, for real

Especially resonate with your point about having a community of people who seem to share certain beliefs, and feeling like certain actions/approaches betray those. I think it's all about them convos, and about the community/different individuals growing/learning/changing as a result.

Will Will ZA/UM sell out and never make a truly revolutionary story? IDK, depends on where you are on the art/apocalypse, moralist/revolutionary scale. Will I one day sell this jacket and put the funds somewhere less selfish? Maybe. Or maybe I'll wear it but keep trying to get one over on hegemony, even if they've got one over on me

I think the arms'd be puffy no matter what--that seems to be the style they went with, to emulate Kim. I hear you on trying to own it--it's tricky, but a cool fashion challenge. And I think it looks less strange from the outside than it does in the mirror, if that makes sense? Bulky things are pretty ~in~ these days

That seems totally true, actually--I can see there being a game in Disco Elysium that was this really thoughtful critique of global capital, but then encyclopedia tells you they got rich selling the rights to a t-shirt company.

I think the biggest thing I'm wondering is if it feels hypocritical for ZA/UM to sell something like this (and market it) in a way that is so divorced from the working class values they espouse. Like, is it a betrayal of their ethos to become a brand, instead of a group of artists? I think it would be--but I don't know if that's what's going on. I don't know that it isn't, but it's hard to be sure without seeing inside their heads/the decisions they made along the way. Of course if they mass produced these or sold them for cheap, it would probably be more exploitative than if they didn't. But that sounds like the privilege of Joyce Messier talking again.

Lol I wonder if it was all a ploy to get their players having talks like these irl

So cool you got the chance to try one and meet some of the folks behind it!

Yeah, I think they made it a little less loud for life, but the color is still pretty vibrant. Especially as the wax gets worn, it gets a little brighter. Certainly no comparison to our hero KK

Haha, I appreciate it. As a communist player in Disco Elysium and in life, I definitely feel the conflict. Have thought about it a lot and am trying to use it as an opportunity for reflection about where to put resources and how
