@kuchaibee Hello. I feel like the skewed submit button is an inspiration for us all. Thank you.

Rechost if #melon is big.

@tenna meanwhile, my GPU (gigabyte rx7600xt) apparently doesn’t care about the vram temps by default, which meant that I had to make some custom fan curves with fancontrol (at least in windows, linux seems to handle things fine) or otherwise it’d get toasty

and sure enough, zero RPM was initially causing some issues with that lmao

wait can I actually at least post short 128 kbps mp3s here

I’ll TAKE IT

last night I was like “I gOTTa make Stepfile Music” and also “I wanna synthesize a decent organ to have on hand” so I googled and saw the scary in the screenshot but then I just traced over the lower harmonics of an ehhh-sounding SpectraVoice “organ” H.type and adjusted them to taste and it sounded good so I layered up some Groovy Tunage and was then like “y’know, this needs some THROAT” and I’m not really a throat user but I’ve been trying to figure something out in that regard so I continued trying to figure something out through this

it might be making me feel a weird impulse to actually continue working on a thing?????

@RebaRabbit tbh public vs unlisted mostly doesn’t matter in terms of spamming up people’s timelines over here, unlisted just removes the post from the local and federated timelines (and the latter is disabled everywhere around here) and from tag timelines (if you’re testing tag stuff, you probably do want the post to be visible there)

(GTS instances also don’t show unlisted posts from the web UI, and it is useful to know, but not rly relevant for timeline spam reduction)

@enfaeutchie assuming miles per hour (as bri'ish people are want to use) then 12,242 mph 'winds' are not only hypersonic, but they're fairly close to orbital speed in LEO. at this speed, wind would stop being wind and instead become a blast front as it encountered air around it and formed a shockwave

from a rough calculation based on wind speed, the dynamic pressure of such a 'wind' would be about 18 megapascals. this is likely enough to do some very bad things to the human body, since only 0.5 MPa is generally lethal. 18 MPa is also very close to the compressive strength of low-grade concrete, so brick and mortar construction probably wouldn't stand a snowflake's chance in hell, let alone wooden structures (this is purely on the wind speed alone, rhe overpressure from the rapidly propagating blast front would do even more damage)

hope this helps u prepare for a windy day coming to a soon-to-be-flat-area near you

@KaydeArcane I actually have not done a tunic rando yet, was def going to though

@ticky note to self: don’t do that

@tenna this is exactly why the “no metrics” stuff is so important around here imo - put everyone on a level playing field! the dick-measuring contest of Numbers on other sites makes you look as someone else’s numbers and go “oh they’re too famous for me. i can’t talk to them”, which like. no. fuck off with that shit! social media should encourage you to go talk to people you think are cool, that’s the Whole Got Damn Fuckin Point!!!!

@nora @spdx_wl @meow that’s hilarious LMAO

@spdx_wl neither do my linux notifications, which means now half of my screen was getting covered even without the image size issue LMAO

oh, good, akkoma-fe collapses the CW

about to test something, I apologize in advance for what might happen to some of your timelines

@gcugreyarea @zlchxo and one who just downloaded it, it’s been on my list for a while
