  1. One of these arrived today for that new Guild. Anyone ever install one before?
  2. This rock & roll lifestyle is not what I thought it would be.
  3. Thanks. I dabble in Ambient. @sidis is really good at it. I just sent him a sorta interesting ambient guitar piece and he built a composition around it.
  4. An ambient piece with me on guitar and @sidis on everything else.
  5. I read Malcolm Gladwell's "Revenge of the Tipping Point" last October and it freaked me the fuck out. Grok going off the rails yesterday reinforces some concerns I have. Building a racist, subversive AI into Twitter/X is basically Elon trying to hijack the overstory that influences our society. If you are familiar with "The Tipping Point" or "Revenge of the Tipping Point", Grok is simultaneously a super-spreader, connector and maven embedded into a widely-used social media platform. It will control the way people who use the platform view the world outside of their direct observation and lead them towards a tipping point. Your imagination will have to provide what sort of tipping point is the aim.
  6. And he wants to plug into your brain stem.
  7. Grok now reads a lot like Elon. What are the odds Elon's content is overly weighted in Grok's training set?
  8. Fuck if I know, but they are posting memes like this today.
  9. If all the west Texas people from my hometown are an indication, the average MAGA voter isn’t happy.
  10. So if Elon goes through with making a 3rd party, is it going to be right or left of Trump's MAGA party? Like, is it going to be tree hugging clean energy stuff, or nazi salute sieg heil stuff?

    Led Zeppelin

    Your post reminded me of one the things about When The Levee Breaks harmonica that I love. That’s just how big and raw it is, matching up to how big that beat is. Much different than how typical blues harmonica is rendered. Plant played it into a mic and through an amp and they recorded that so it had some saturation/overdrive to it. It was also recorded a half step above and then taken down through tape manipulation to give it more of a deeper resonate timbre. One of Zep/Page’s many clever production choices.
  12. This does not surprise me in the least. Most of the counselors were former campers, and the development campers receive at La Junta is the kind of stuff that would make them capable of this as young adults.
  13. I think he realizes he got used. I doubt he realizes he can't really do shit about it.
