Come to think of it, “share and enjoy” is exactly the way I would expect an AI-generated YouTube video to end.

I’d rather listen to Vogon poetry than use Elon’s AI.

Wait, Musk thinks grok comes from the hitchhiker’s guide? What a moron
Yeah this whole time I thought he was a at least a Heinlein fan…
Considering Heinlein had a lot of sympathy/support for fascism, it makes sense Musk would be a fan.
Are you just saying this because of Starship Troopers? He explored a lot of ideas through fiction but I don’t think you can call him a supporter of fascism because of that one book, unless you know something else about his personal life. Of all his books I’ve read I think the only real ideological through line is “horny old guy objectifies women and that’s OK”.
Like Stranger in a Strange Land has Space Jesus starting a revolutionary free love commune, I don’t think that’s really in line with fascism.
Got a new laptop recently. Copilot pops up, so I asked it how to permanently disable Copilot.
It gave me a wordy non-answer, along with a “fun fact” about my local area — totally relevant and not creepy at all.
Then, after I demanded it tell me how to permanently disable itself, Copilot gave me a completely wrong answer.
After specifying the “app or service” I’m using (Windows, you fucking clueless piece of shit), it then gave me a half-baked answer that called commands which weren’t installed by default.
I then used duckduckgo to figure out how to install the configuration tool copilot said to use but that Windows had decided to hide from me.
Good job completely wasting my time, you ai-loving fucks at Microsoft. I don’t need new reasons to nuke your shitty software and install Linux, but now I have them. If Linux had native vst3 support, I wouldn’t have even booted into Windows.
Edit: Stranger in a Strange Land is a great book, and being the sci-fi novel backgrounding hippie culture, I wouldn’t have expected Musk to have read it.
Would KX Studio’s “Carla” help with VST3?
I’ve heard that Carla is the way to go, but how much more overhead will it cost when basically all the plugins I use are vst3? At least one project on my tower pc is pretty much maxed out as it is with them running natively on Windows.
My other issue is simply time: this is already side project stuff that I do for a little extra money/learning/career development, and at this point, I simply don’t have time to try alternatives.
If I was just researching and writing papers like I did back in grad school, Windows would be gone, but as it stands, the path of least resistance for the audio work I’m doing is just to deal with what I’ve got.
Yeah fair points!
Out of interest what is the side project you’re doing that involves music production (presumably)?
I’m the production manager and audio engineer for an independent venue, but I also do enough extracurricular, 1099 work that I needed to start spending money to write off on my taxes.
So, I bought a nice PC a few years ago, started using a friend’s old laptop (that I just replaced with my recent, copilot-infected purchase) to take multitrack recordings for local artists at work, and have been making my way into the mixing and mastering world at home. I figured getting some experience on the studio side would improve my live sound skills and give me something of a fallback, just in case.
Not quite sure how that’s panning out, but I have learned a few things and have gotten some decent sounds just recording with standard, live audio gear!
