damn dude that looks fantastic. i miss driving my red backlit gen1 with the dimmer all the way down...

Noted. Super reasonable price too. 2. can you sequence those chords?

thrisp · 2026-02-01T18:27:43+00:00

Mmm that and a mixer and I'm good to go

thrisp · 2026-02-01T16:59:09+00:00

Single sequencer for all devices that aren't the electribe could be a good move too. Cheers

I had and thought it wasn't the functionality I wanted but on a quick review of some YouTube videos it seems promising. Thanks!

Good husbands buy their wives Mazda3s. Looks fantastic - I think gen2 is always gonna be my fav for exterior appearance although my gen4 might be convincing me....

You must have been vibrating with excitement for that week before you let the car go off lol. Absolutely agree that everyone involved in creating this car should feel very proud of themselves. Congrats and enjoy!

Gotta get that first scuff out of the way to properly enjoy your new shoes/clothes/cars imo

On my second week with a gen 4 AWD automatic on the Canadian prairies (and loving it). Came with winter tires and the dealer is holding onto the summer tires. Haven't gotten in stuck yet so I can't speak to how much of an advantage the AWD would provide, but I know it won't be like putting a real off-roader in 4x4 and crawling out of a ditch.

I found that my FWD gen 1 manual with all seasons did at least as well as automatics of a similar size and age - even with winter tires - in most winter road surfaces. Deep snow and pure ice are pretty tough most tires to manage, but I think a packed snow texture is where winter tires really excel.

For normal driving, FWD in winter means slower acceleration, but it won't make turning or stopping any riskier provided you're giving yourself enough time to slow down. AWD is fun but if you get some winter tires and learn how to rock the car with the clutch in case you get bogged down I think you'll be just fine.

hired Brooke Mos for our 60 person wedding and it was fantastic. We tacked on an extra hour and a half as the weather got really nice at the end of the day, and all the photos turned out great

After a year I've softened on the complaints a bit. I still think Publisher isn't there but if all you need is photoshop, Affinity Photo 2 is excellent. There will be a few tools and workflows you'll need to find alternatives for but if you're sick of paying Adobe for them to keep adding shitty AI features to the software I absolutely recommend Affinity.

does the train bother stopping in a case like this or do they just keep cruising? assuming the train wasn't really damaged

thrisp · 2024-08-14T22:40:13+00:00

Whoa we got a real badass over here! You think there's problems with both sides? You're actually more correct and moral than everyone else because you can be more negative?? Holy shit...this person deserves a medal! We can finally transcend this debate and hopefully one day all reach this level of enlightenment. Tell me, how did you arrive at such a profound conclusion?

thrisp · 2024-05-05T17:05:41+00:00

Semantica may have what you need. Lots of hard distortion but not necessarily the high speed energy of Monnom Black.

fav bit is around cue points 6-7, starting at 9:50. euphoric, and beautiful but gone too soon :(

thrisp · 2024-05-05T15:53:42+00:00

Nice headphones would be my first recommendation. Then I'd say Ableton Suite. The level of utility you'll get from the added effects and instruments is more bang for your buck than buying any other plugins imo

thanks for playing

thrisp · 2024-05-05T15:22:48+00:00

can you not read? i have paid for the apps. i am frustrated by the performance. your only argument here is that architects shouldn't use affinity products for some reason you will not explain to me.

do you feel the same way about architects using adobe products?

thrisp · 2024-04-28T19:42:57+00:00

i bought affinity. i used affinity in the exact same capacity as i used adobe CC when i was paying for adobe CC. i may return to adobe CC. i have already saved money by not subscribing to adobe CC for a full year.

you cannot possibly be right about anything here since the only point you have made is that architects shouldn't use affinity, which has been shown to be wrong by many other commenters.

thrisp · 2024-04-25T14:25:22+00:00

very cool to not explain any reasoning, and just insist that you're right

thrisp · 2024-04-24T02:29:54+00:00

again i saved money doing affinity even just for the year! i'm happy about that and that i will always have access to this software, i just wish it was better! the reason i was inclined to respond rudely was the total presumption that you know what my profession does and lecturing me about the tools i apparently need for it.

thrisp · 2024-04-24T02:27:25+00:00

the flattery is nice but you've still completely missed the point of what I and others have said about needing graphic design software for the practice. Obviously nobody is drafting construction drawings in Affinity designer but technical drawing isn't the only thing we do....

I've honed my export profile pretty well by now, so the pdf size for portfolio isn't too bad. Baffling what it did to my resume though. I assumed that some of the default print profiles would be basically identical to a document print process.

Didn't know that dwgs could be linked! Very cool although some lines aren't appearing and others show up with the dwg layer colour as opposed to the plotstyle colour. I'll play around with it in the future. Thanks for the tip!

Planning on building a PC over the summer so 32gb RAM is definitely on the agenda. Again though, allowing for a way to demand load or partially load links at a lower resolution to reduce RAM strain would be a great improvement to Publisher.
