A kid pirating a game is not a "lost sale". That kid doesn't have the money to buy the game anyway.
A kid with pirated games will however grow up to be into videogames, and buy a whole lot of them later in life.
That money is what the game industry runs on.

I'm watching Babylon 5 for the first time. I didn't really know what to expect, but I'm really into it!
I'm about halfway season 2 and I think I just hit the goofiest scene yet and I just have to share it with yall

Just musing on why rackmount synthesizers have become ever less popular over the years. I think in the 80s-00s, people had this new digital landscape. Everything can be programmed from one central pla...
@nprofile1q... I also think the pros who need to make things quickly & repeatably mostly moved on to using software synths.
Most studios I've seen lately have very minimal rack-mounted gear in general, be it instruments or effects.
The market just isn't really there for rack-mounted hardware synths I guess. The enthusiast wants a keyboard in front of them and the more practically-minded professional uses a plugin.

You know what I hate? Cutesie reviews of products that someone generated with an LLM.
There are real people who, for some reason, think that's a good idea. Knowing that those people are out there am...
@nprofile1q... my favourite ever amazon review said something like "idk what it's like, I didn't receive it yet - 3 out of 5 stars" 😅
I don't get all the hype, I've been a prompting engineer for 40 years!
Predicting the next step in programming: a specialized prompting language that takes away the ambiguity of genAI. With a handful of powerful commands you can assume full control over what your app does.
Iterating has never been easier. Instead of generating new code, you just make changes to what you've written.
Amazing! No more guessing why your app doesn't do what you want. You'll be so productive!

It's good to see a big gear tuber like Starsky Carr make a video about just enjoying music.
I avoid his videos these days unless there's something specific he's looking at that I'm interested in, be...
@nprofile1q... I'm in the middle of watching this, but just had to say: I love the way he pronounces "Earth" hahah

@nprofile1q... I'll watch the video first before I say much more about it, but yeah totally.
It would be so sad if people aren't doing what they love because they think they'll not "make it big" or whatever. Do it anyway! It's good for your mind, it's good for your soul. Not that I really believe souls are real, but you know what I mean hahah

As a person who has zero aspirations to "make it," I think about the questions he poses in this video quite often. I'm forever trying to explain to people why I'm not on streaming services, why I don'...
@nprofile1q... people are so obsessed with excellence and recognition etc, it's honestly a bit disturbing.
Like... people understand not everyone can have hits, right? It's simply mathematically impossible for every single artist to have a bazillion fans.
But so what? Life isn't a competition!

Got a text: "Hey, do you want some iMacs?" — obviously I said YES. 🙌
These 2017 iMac 18,1s are fast, gorgeous, and built to last. Apple dropped support, so now they're "useless" to most people ...
@nprofile1q... Those iMacs are such great computers still! It's wild Apple doesn't support them anymore. They even have USB-C and stuff, right?
