Can you talk to me in the comments so I can act busy on the street? edit: rule

Well, I appreciate the effort anyway. I did it by hand too, here's my alphabet (lovingly named Elphabet) where I pasted letters one at a time lol:

Elphabet

    
- A: ....E 
- B: ...E. 
- C: ...EE 
- D: ..E.. 
- E: ..E.E 
- F: ..EE. 
- G: ..EEE 
- H: .E... 
- I: .E..E 
- J: .E.E. 
- K: .E.EE 
- L: .EE.. 
- M: .EE.E 
- N: .EEE. 
- O: .EEEE 
- P: E.... 
- Q: E...E 
- R: E..E. 
- S: E..EE 
- T: E.E..

Okay, challenge accepted. As characters such as spaces and general punctuation are allowed, I can encode letters using binary and you can decipher them. Codex: E is 1, . is zero. A space signifies one number has terminated, and another has begun. A hyphen will denote the ending of a word.

Message

E..EE E.... .E... .E..E .EEE. EE... - .EEEE ..EE. - ...E. .EE.. ....E ...EE .E.EE - E...E E.E.E ....E E..E. E.E.. EE.E. - .E.E. E.E.E ..E.. ..EEE ..E.E - .EE.E EE..E - E.EE. .EEEE E.EEE

Basically:

"Give me something to do."
"Sure, tell me about your day without using the letter e."

Alright, how about a fun task to blow an hour—avoiding any fifth glyphs. It's basic, but will stop you in your tracks for a bit if unfamiliar. Jot down about your your day, possibly an upcoming situation, and do it with good grammar, spanning a paragraph or so. Now you'll sit stuck on this, and look full of focus! My post is also following this proposition, so you know.

Cool cat photo, did you shoot it? If so, say hi soon!

📝 - Not a shock this ask still sits without you, it's fairly difficult! I'm glad you got additional asks during that, to allow you a bit of busy during your wait. Couldn't know what would occur, so my option was long—just in that situation it was all you had lol.

[PSA] A new mod appeared.

The current sidebar has virtually no rules, and the only other mod of the community basically hasn't been around for two years. It's safe to say this place needed a new moderator, and an active poster is certainly a good choice. Thanks for deciding to pick up the mantle!

Now that I've looked over the situation, I'd consider maybe codifying some simple rules, and including them in the sidebar and a pinned post. Currently the only thing the Furry sidebar says is "we're vaguely pro AI posting," which I don't think is the best position for a general art community, nor one I've ever seen community members be interested in using.

At this rate, you might even need more than one clown car to store them all!

Thanks for sharing your comic! Also, the clowns you've been making are quite neat, I saw some of your mastodon posts about them. I wouldn't be surprised if there was some down time or temporary degraded service, it happens to any server, but bark.lgbt seems to work fine when I checked just now. Well, I could see your profile anyway.

That's wonderful to hear! I think it being so hard to make a list is part of why it's a thing, so that different people can all positively talk about different projects that help them, and even just about developing free software in general. It's just nice to hear you're appreciated, and they absolutely are!

Proprietary DAWs? By that I have to imagine you mean FL Studio, I don't think anything really holds a candle to that, especially because I'd also have to include the myriad of propetary plugins too (even if you can technically use them with free software). I've used it to make a few simple jingles and whatnot for myself, and also to just jam on my MIDI keyboard, which is really all I need anyway. Zrythm is a bit more robust with plugin support, but the 1.0 release is certainly rough around the edges at the moment.

I do largely just install things, but I like to go to source pages, about pages, try and get a feel for the vibes, and ensure it is actually free software before I use it. It just set off a red flag and I wrote it off; maybe the software is great and there's nothing to worry about, I dunno.

Thank you!

Yes, that's correct, I have a flashed Pixel 8 Pro. As for LMMS, because it was freely available to download, along with Zrythm. When I looked at Ardour last, the message I got was they were a little antagonistic to building binaries from source from the display messages, it put me off. I don't mind paying for binaries, but the scary messages about not to do it, and that they actively don't keep the build pages up to date with what you might need? Eh.
