Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

For fun, I decided to see what How Soon Is Now sounds like as played back thru a chorus of detuned electrified banjos and a drowned-out mandolin

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Trying (and failing) to find the right attack / decay / sustain / release envelope for guitar strings but found the right one for the banjo/mandolin

Fluff Orpington (@flufforpington.bsky.social):

I've only got Garage Band, but would it be possible to find that banjo sound with it? I dabble in music during the winter months

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

Sadly, I don't think there's a way to export this FM synth from this app to garage band. It's a discontinued/withdrawn app that recreates what the plugin for the company's DAW does. I can tell you what I did to make this, tho

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

There's three envelopes, the filter envelope has a 3 ms attack, a 1.75 second decay, -28 db sustain, 90 ms release; the amplifier envelope has a 25ms attack, 750 ms decay, -24db sustain, 15 second release; the modulation envelope 61 ms delay, 200 ms attack, 3 s decay, 1 s release (1/?)

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

There's three analog synth sources, first is a symmetric square wave, second is a sawtooth three cents uptuned, third is a sawtooth 12 cents uptuned & sync'ed to the square. These go thru a 24-bit low-pass filter with about 80% drive, 50% envelope, resonance about 30%, 50% keyboard follow (2/?)

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

That signal is put thru a rectifier distortion 1/3rd imposed, then thru a comb filter, then thru some delay and chorus, settings on the comb, delay, and chorus are to taste.

(3/?)

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

On this one I also patched a low frequency oscillator to the square wave and another LFO to the unsynced sawtooth to slowly vary their pitches slightly, to warm / analog-up the sound. Subtle but nice, and I did that early in composition, before adding the comb, delay, & chorus, so it might get lost

Having said this:

Constitutional LaΓ―citΓ© would go a very long way towards curing the bad faith of government officials in the United States.

Alito is very much a theocratic military field officer. There should be more protections against this.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

It's not the kind of Title of Nobility that the Constitution proscribes. The Order is a Catholic religious order. The "Knighthoods" it bestows are exactly as noble a title and as aristocratic a peerage as the Knights of Columbus. It's not an actual title under an actual state or nation.

In 2020, I helped run /r/VoteBlue, and on Nov 3, led the subreddit's electoral integrity team.

There were three incidents of election misinfo / disinfo posted to /r/VoteBlue that day.

The most brazen involved postfacto editing of a post once it had become popular.

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

The atproto protocol prevents "ninja edits" and assures authentication of the contents of a post.

User account profiles and domain handles, however, can be retroactively changed; an automated watchdog looking for On The Fly changes to these metadatas would be prudent

Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

This is an attractive target, since bluesky uses

Joe Patrice (@joepatrice.bsky.social):

The Constitution makes ONE simple demand of officeholders. Like instructing Adam & Eve to lay off the fruit, the Framers said, "you may want a fancy European title but the nation's integrity demands you refuse." Alito just ignored the Constitution's command.

Illegal. It's another example showing that our nation and democracy are under attack. We should be under a national emergency. Undo influence, voter suppression, gross electioneering, hacks/scams galore, etc from internal and external threats is dangerous to say the least.

i don't think I've ever had an ego death but I've been pretty solidly in the absurdist camp for like eight or so years so i like to think that keeps me humble and grounded enough to be an aadequate substitute lmao

Yeah, I dunno that I've ever experienced ego death directly, but I spent like a decade+ as an egg being a disaffected nominal Catholic clinging to the shreds of my faith on the one hand, while reading Thomas Ligotti and Emil Cioran on the other and going "this makes a lot of sense" on the other…
