That’s not necessarily true, I dual boot and I’ve been using Linux for my main OS for about 15 years now. I rarely use mine but it is useful/needed occasionally.
Why is that called a dog whistle?
I’ve been down this rabbit hole as well. They all have problems but I’m most happy with Cantata for library playing (beets for file/tag management) and deadbeef for odd local files and file conversation.
Sounds like textbook NPD, particularly his backstory.
You mention gender role stereotypes but then fall prey to one when you clearly think you should be served first because of your gender. If you don’t believe in equality and would rather stick to ancient and out of date traditions that’s fine but perhaps he is a bit more progressive and you are not well suited to each other.
It’s ok for a woman to pay, it’s ok for a woman to suggest a second venue, it’s ok for a woman to make the first move. It’s not 1950 any more.
Regardless, like others have mentioned, having this much to question after one date isn’t a good sign.
Wtf are Israel playing at. Other than genocide I mean.
They would never victim blame…
Mpd and Cantata. Deadbeef for playing from a directory or for conversation. I haven’t found anything as good as cantata but I have to admit that I miss the monolithic and do everything of musicbee.
So we get surprised every three months rather than every month.
Yes, it is. ‘loudness’ of an action has no correlation with how serious it was.
They can be dropped into local directories, assuming the devs provide binaries, otherwise they need building. I know it’s not difficult to git clone and build but it’s not really a beginner friendly process and not ideal to have to remember to check for updates (and not ideal to not have them packaged for updates if there are binaries provided by the devs). I was considering using 10 years ago or so and this was one of the main reasons I decided against it in the end (along with other audio tools not having packages), it’s a shame it hasn’t really moved forward in this respect because it looked really nice otherwise.
Those Tukan plugins are not VSTs, they are reaper specific plugins.
I have no idea about Bottles but most people use yabridge these days which is really easy to use and works very well.
Yes. LV2 and VST3
AV Linux is pretty damn good.
I would say Arch because the AUR is amazing and Arch all around is so good but you’ll need to be making a lot of decisions during install that you know nothing about. If you want to learn then I think it’s the best overall.
Last time I looked there were not enough plugins available for it to be good for a beginner wanting to use it for audio.
It’s pretty common to bond over dislikes. Besides, disliking something isn’t negative, and there’s nothing wrong with being negative even if it were.
Your assessment of probability is speculation and I didn’t suggest you meant “always”.
