Oof, seriously. And /e/os is an odd recommendation over graphene.

"Hulking out"?

He made a mistake assumption, I provided info, he responded with nastiness, I blocked. I really don't see what you're hung up on here.

Nah, try reading through his messages in order. He gets nasty right away, as he did to another who pointed out his mistake. I figured I'd provide some supporting context, he again behaved like a dick. So I blocked him.

Doesn't seem problematic to me at all.

Wow, you are not only unable to accept that you're wrong, you make references to exactly what others have talked about, and then you act like a dick about it.

Your comments apparently add nothing of value, so... Goodbye.

Canonical was the early 2000s. Redhat was the early 90s. Inspire was the early 2000s. Collabara was mid-2000s. Ximiam was late 90s.

Not only was open source pretty popular, it had a not-insignificant group of companies working on it.

He's very much correct.

Well that's a new one for me, and I would just like to add... Gross.

Which makes it very Bannon appropriate.

I get that, there is a list of Linux friendly vsts out there that work well. I think they have a link to the list, but I don't really use drums in my workflow so couldn't give you any examples unfortunately. I did have to go into windows for some work stuff where I needed a specific vst though, definitely understand the issue.

No, just a nag. If you're recording/editing a few times a year, it won't be a bother. If you're in there often, it's worth the few bucks.

FOSS is always a better option, as of today I don't think anything compares. And since they aren't a big company doing shady things, the licensed version is permanent, no big company buyout is going to impact anything other than upgrades.

Just to mention a not-foss, but extremely well done DAW, cheap ($60 personal use, $225 commercial) and goes through 2 major versions before you'd need to pay again, free to download and try WinRAR style, supported on windows, macos, and Linux, etc, etc - reaper.

If you need a solid DAW, with support for all kinds of plugins and a dev team that's not a bag of dicks trying to screw you over with a cloud subscription and AI, this is it.

If I remember right on that one, users had even paid to have their data removed, too. But it was stored unencrypted. And that settlement included unidentified users which the money was going to be held onto for them to put ads in magazines or something. Wild.

The huge, nearly billion dollar Facebook settlement was something like $50/person. Google's privacy class action suit was like $10 per person.

And boy oh boy can we be sure they learned their lesson! Facebook and Google haven't done anything shady with private information since, right?

So that in 15 or so years, a class action lawsuit completes where Google now provides you with a whole $10 coupon to the play store and a check for $0.65.
