99.9% of who I follow are music accounts and I engage almost only with music accounts.
Yet all I see on TL is stupid politics, fights, dumb posts, degradation, stupid quotes etc, and maybe 5% music stuff.
I block almost every single post on TL but it doesn’t help lol.

Started calling the middle of a loaf of bread “the king’s bread” and saying things like “a cheddar this fine demands the king’s bread!”
This is just one of the many ways I have scraped joy out of a cold and unaccountable universe.

My notifications are a sewer ever since this app got bought by that gremlin with the rockets.

Been on the internet since 1999 and it’s never been this bad. Google is useless, once findable information is deleted or buried. Wanton cruelty and sadism used to be contained to places like 4chan now it’s every social media site. Ubiquitous AI imagery is deeply unpleasant to see

I can't believe that I still have to say this, but learning more about music won't somehow stifle or ruin your creativity.
That's just not how this works at all.

Being a composer on Twitter is frustrating sometimes because I *want* to talk about things like disappointing game/film scores, but I know that the platform can’t handle gentle criticism and would just devolve into mindless hate.

MuseScore is the best game in town and I'd still say that if it suddenly cost the same as the competition.
6 Sep 2024
Best analogy I can think of for the continued hesitation from older composers to use MuseScore is that it’s like if McDonald’s suddenly started serving 4-course dinners for the same price as it used to charge for a McDouble

This was 100% AI bot scraping, this is becoming an unbelievably common occurrence. Not only are these companies stealing our work, which costs us, but they're driving up everyone's server bills as well. We're literally paying for them to take our work. This needs to be illegal.

I had to shut down rileyb3d.com because my AWS monthly budget was reached in like an hour. I don’t know who, but it’s not general/normal traffic.
I wish I was more knowledgeable at tracking and blocking this stuff. I’m looking for a secure way to get it back.

One way to guarantee something will never happen is to have Peter Molyneux say it will.
Peter Molyneux reckons AI will "be a real game changer" in the future of games, and it'll "allow anyone" to make an entire title with a single prompt
