hi

just joined out of curiosity

been on discord since 2015 let's say I am well beyond the introduction period

so don't worry about me

I'm currently at work with nothing to do really

well, if you can call working at home "at work"

programmer

not in my particular company but I trade money for free time

@TychoLorenzo audio engineer?

I'm a musician as well in my spare time, I do some audio engineering too

well... basically I just realized I can't be bothered to ask people to work on my stuff so I learned everything I needed to push out songs on my own

NA?

I assume you're talking about college debt

oh

@TychoLorenzo I have the same mentality, can't really enjoy my old stuff

had a huge break, of like 4 years, started again on a new channel

used to get some nice views, gotta get that back up again

are you asking me or Toki @KylePoopsMcGee

I think all of my friends have this approach, it seems to be common amongst musicians

@TychoLorenzo have you tried Omnisphere?

nope

It's a mix of a synth and a sample based plugin

it allows you to modify samples with synthwaves

it's kinda huge though

about 70+GB IIRC

oof

I feel like that bot just wasted a whole paragraaph

I wouldn't be satisfied by that solution really, I always am extremely nitpicky when it comes to the sounds I use

funny, coz I find mixing to be way more work than actually making my beats

the end result matters really

well yeah, though I am speaking from a perspective of someone who used to work on other people's stuff

and back in the day I thought $25 per track is a good quote

mistakes...

@TychoLorenzo back then pretty shit quality, but people didn't know better anyway

yeah

it was cheap af, which was my mistake

got burnt out really quickly

yeah I am lucky to live in Poland

cost of living is way lower so I can ask for less money

but now I don't do it anyway, since I just do programming and I only mix my own stuff and my friends'

that

that's true*

whhat I mean is, here $25 feels like $100 of a reward

so technically I am getting more for the work I put in

except for international trade stuff, like electronics etc

yeah that's frustrating, I know the feeling, used to work shit wages before

our minimum wage is around $3.74

$3.74 net, coz people under 26 don't pay tax anymore

oof

I got pretty lucky with my bosses, I quit in April due to shit contract and found another employer, they felt the hole in the team so they offered me a better contract and a 1-year loyalty contract where they can't fire me

ye, changes are the worst

It's interesting, I understand what Onision is feeling when I listen to those voicemails, I seem to have the same disorder he does when it comes to being "addicted" to people

it's just that I seem to recognize it and control it and he doesn't

I think I used "recognize" in a different meaning, as in being aware to the point of it affecting my response to it

it doesn't seem to work like that for him, he most likely recognizes it as in, he knows what he is doing, it's just not phasing him

@insanelyvain shadow banning usually means being banned in a way that you're not blocked from talking but nobody else sees your contributions

well, basically the difference is the person has no idea they're banned until somebody actually tells them @insanelyvain

but in bigger communities nobody can tell them because they're shadow banned, so they don't actually show up in threads

so it's kinda clever, works for bigger communities where people don't know each other well

I wonder if chris is going to actually fire vincent

yeah, hopefully Vince with his boomer level tech IQ doesn't mess shit up

(I'm a boomer myself, so I can call other boomers boomers ok)

yeah but he literally randomly messages people with threats, well he used to

homophobic slurs, racist shit etc

so it might scare people away

yeah but the beauty of 4chan is that people there are in a cage

he's let loose

4chan is like the TOR network, just minus the imagery (most of the times)

you'd fit right in

what role do you get for the selfie thing

I can be a regular by showing my face?

what if I take a selfie, print it, stick it to my ass, and then show my ass in that image?

would that work?

@Locus I beat you to it

I am pretty sure people are just poking fun at it, I doubt anybody here is seriously bitching

I mean I also think the name of the role is stupid, don't get me wrong <:LUL:317339655211057152>

but whatever, it's just naming

another server simply has it as "VIP" or "Verified" which seems to be more fitting

since I could upload my face now and become a regular after less than an hour of talking

I'm a golden boi

I'm looking for golden mates to give birth to golden children

and we'll rule the world

don't bait me Locus into spending money to boost my ego

@Sassy Peach how is an optional role rule traumatic

this discord is not a public place, it's private, like a company, allowed to set its own rules

I would pay $100 for Repzion to review my buttcheeks on vimeo

but I doubt he'll go for it

ew I don't want his feet

sounds like my type of guy

that's probably a similarity in tags from the phrase "horse cock"

guys make some money on wank sites, I forgot the name though

Also by hanging out here I don't think this looks like a place that would be good to have a conversation whike in a depressed state

while in*

Yeah, I agree, even though I've known you for like 40 minutes

hey, at least it's easy to tell

anybody here plays rocket league, coz im bored

god damn product placement

I'm sure raid shadow legends is amazing, with the "Auto" button that plays the game for you

don't you have to be a sub to be in that server? asking for Peach

coz I'm pretty sure that's how it works on most discord servers
