Also, get a sleep study for sleep apnea. "It is estimated to affect 10% to 30% of adults in the United States but in many cases goes undiagnosed". -National Sleep Foundation

I've got a thunderbolt chip on an AMD motherboard, which doesn't usually happen, and I'm running an LG 5k monitor through it. I use an IBM model M over native PS/2. I've got a Ryzen 7, but a GTX 1060 cuz it still works. It's running Ultramarine Linux, based on Fedora.

I keep trying to understand that headline but I just can't parse it

They said "free" and I elected to interpret that in the way that allowed me to make a little joke

What are some poems or other texts that you think should be put to music? I might use one or two of your answers :)

FOSS Streaming Box? (sh.itjust.works)

Before I buy another Roku, are there any options for a streaming box/stick that run FOSS? A foss derivitive of android TV would be nice if that exists, ideally preloaded on an inexpensive and compact piece of hardware.

Most modern "plotters" are just bigass printers. The word used to only mean pen-based vector-drawing machines, but the overlapping use in architechture and engineering meant that as cheap inkjets supplanted the pen plotters they co-opted the name.

As an engineer, i dont know how to feel about this. On the one hand, 19.99999 = 20. But on the other hand, 3^3 - 3 = 24.

Hello all! My name's Evan, and I'm starting development on an idea I had a few years ago. The Synharmonium is (going to be) a microcontroller-based synthesizer with control elements based on the accordion and the Suzuki Omnichord, and an algorithm to solve the centuries old musical problem of versatile just intonation. Best case, this could have a huge impact on how western music is written and performed. Worst case, its a fun and easy synthesizer you can build at home.

But right now its not much more than an idea and a janky keyboard prototype. I am a student of computer engineering, and I have a non-zero amount of programming skill, but there's still a lot of gaps that I just don't have the experience needed to fill. I need someone who's good at programming, familiar with open-source development, has some spare time, and finds this idea interesting, to help me get the software side of the instrument going. If you can become a major contributor, I'd love to have you, but if you can just hang out in the matrix room and answer questions from time to time that would help a lot.
