Audio marketing bullshit: sample rate higher than 44100 and bit depth higher than 16

“44100 Hz, 16-bit” is the highest quality a human being can hear, which is basically good ’ol CD-quality. Continue reading

Maybe [doing X] really is the answer to it.

There is no answer. We just struggle along.

Those who stretches old video games into widescreen.

There should be a public execution for each one of those streamers/youtubers.

Considering that the rooster actually makes a desperate, hoarse sound like “H-H-HghdtrrrrOOOOOOOOOOUUuuh-OOOOOOOOUUUUUuuh”, the very invention of “cock-a-doodle-doo” instead of some “trou-trou” already says a lot about the mandatory optimism built into social structures.

Not to mention the sheep, which is basically a demon.

I’m perfectly crafted to not be able to live.

Dancing is basically the sublimation of a male and a female fucking. There’s no point in it. Just fuck each other already.

Are we in Hell already?

If one thinks about the (obviously made up) religious scenarios, or any other kind of hellish stories invented by humans, it’s obvious that most real lives don’t even come close to that. Continue reading

I remember a middle school teacher telling us that the worst thing that you could say to someone is that he/she is useless (and therefore advising us to never say that). And I think that’s true.

But it’s funny because at the same time there’s nothing more true that you could say to literally anyone.

[1:52] for me, I don’t know, looks like I’m the only one thinking this
but the saturation
and the numbers of things
they drive me insane
the fact that we’re 8 billion, that there’s so much music you wouldn’t get through it in 7 lifetimes, etc.
I don’t know, I think about it every day
yeah, that’s why I’m sick lol
but I do think about it every day
like, nihilism resides in the numbers, you don’t even need to do philosophy

At the end of the day, 99% of the activity is data hoarding, 1% is making use. Music years ago, other things later. Because then, when you use it, you’ll be fed up with it. Of course people like to work, because otherwise their brains explode; it’s the same mechanism. Endless search for mechanical and repetitive distractions. Tergiversations around the core of desperation.

And this is… when things are going well.

And then they say to the hoarder: «You don’t need to accumulate everything. This thing X, you don’t need to hoard it, resist it.» But if there is no need for me to save X, it means that there is no need for me to save Y, it means that there is no need for me to save anything, by simple syllogism.

And indeed, that is correct. But it only confirms the nihilism and the absolute meaninglessness of everything.

Tenet (2020) – Rant

Allowing two objects (or persons) to have a different arrow of time and to cohexist in the same consistent timeline is impossible even just theoretically. It’s not sci-fi and not even magic, it’s simply something that doesn’t work. Continue reading

Days go by without restraint.

One day is the time it takes to get bored of your new shiny toy.

So you then go back to either your life as a slave or your basic organic distractions.

Windows 11 tray bar links – And Microsoft keeps getting worse

People don’t know how to use computers, so among other things, they put links on the desktop. So you have a desktop full of icons, in some cases reaching half of the screen, zero organization, you almost don’t see the background, and most importantly, you have to minimize all windows to be able to use those links.

Sex, drugs, food.

Being able to get pleasure from anything else requires an incredible and amazing nervous system and a decent amount of self-illusion.

The loner

The loner is the one who withdraws his presence so as not to distress or bother others, to let them live their illusion, because truth brings nothing but pain. The lover who steps aside to let the other live, the Oblomov who doesn’t even try to make things work because he knows they can’t. How absurd it would be for time to fall in love with a girl, or for death to write her a love poem. Continue reading

Two diametrically opposed things, pushed to their extremes, end up looking very much alike.

An obese person who eats until he explodes and an anorexic who fasts until he implodes, both die.

Bright light that blinds you to nothing is the same as absolute darkness.

Who would’ve thought, that after nihilism, there was a further involuntary step to take. In nullism, everything is different, and even more ridiculous when seen from the outside.

Virtual reality

Virtual reality and augmented reality have always been so much behind in the technological development. Today we are still so far behind that it’s downright ridiculous, albeit understandable: shit is hard to build. Continue reading

“Rational depression” is the worst kind, because it simply acknowledges the truth of the cesspit that is one’s existence. The other kind, yes, reaches deeper abysses, but one holds on to the knowledge that it’s like a passing wind. Lucidity, instead, makes the soul suffer with truth.

Of all the foolish human chirping, the worst happens during meals, where the noise rises and nothingness becomes fertile. After hours of vile horror, everyone goes home knowing absolutely nothing more than before: on the contrary, with renewed idiocy.

The historical weight of bullshit

I’ve been asking myself what really differentiates a random conspiracy theory, ufologists, and religions. Because to a reasoning mind, the presence of religion in today’s world seems incomprehensible, and since the function of all three is ultimately the same – offering consolation and distraction to the ignorant masses – one struggles to understand why religion still holds such an important place, seemingly more than conspiracies or UFOs.

The pope

It’s 2023, and newspapers are still talking about Berlusconi, and about the pope too. Okay, let’s not even get into politics, that’s a matter of mafia. But they’re still talking about the POPE (complete with vestments) of the CATHOLIC CHURCH. Continue reading

Laško is the answer to existence.

No one is living da life.

Acceptance is the hardest thing. Because everyone around you is trying to change you.

I feel incredible release. From the things of life, from meds, from all the bullshit.

Back then you’d say, “humans,” as if they were something distant. And sure, we are too, unfortunately, and fully aware of it, we stayed apart, because not even between us can that self-delusion arise, the one needed for the deception of meaning to occur. And so, like prime numbers, like in that book, our ways took part. Mine isn’t really a “way”, it’s waiting for death with as little collateral damage as possible, which never actually happens – not even that, and so come the alchemies in the blood and the desperate wails.

The concept of the “potential” is probably the most stupid lie that is told by people since ever.

If you are able to do something, your brain will lead you to do that, or at least something relating to that (not everyone can become an astronaut, for example, but you will work in related engineering stuff). If your brain won’t, then you won’t.

Pop!_OS

For the situations where one is forced to use modern crappy software and/or if you want a ready-to-go solution, this is the new big outstanding thing. Isn’t that an obvious thing to do?: a working WM that out of the box has tiling, and you can switch tiling on and off. So you don’t need to program a configuration file which is more a source code than anything else, just to open some goddamn windows… Continue reading

(On the romanticization of suffering)

Discerning gullible people, with judgment

Installing macOS Sierra 10.12 in VirtualBox 6.1 to use audio-related platform-dependent software

A lot of audio creation and manipulation software exists only for Mac, because of an historic reason where musicians always went around with Mac notebooks to play stuff (or maybe I’m making up stuff, I don’t know). Luckily, nowadays most of the good shit is for Windows too (luckily between quotes, I mean, Linux would be the ideal goal), see e.g. FL Studio. But if you ever need a Mac install for some small obscure software, here is my quick howto. Continue reading

How do you name a child? It’s impossible.

If I haven’t already chosen it from the beginning, I could spend days to set for a title for one of my ambient tracks; and I listen to the piece a thousand times to see what it evokes for me. At some point, I have to decide, and I manage to do it because in the end it’s not such an important thing.

But how do you name your children?

It’s actually simple: just live with those lightness and naivety which are exactly those which make you conceive them.

These faces… Everyone is a nuisance.

Oh god. I’ve woke up in my shoes.

Those who do drugs, it’s just because they forget that you can stretch your limbs.

Life is a scam. And now we’ve fallen for it. Not our fault, I mean, “fallen for it” in the sense that we happened to come into the world, but the result is the same.

Once you fall for the scam, what can you do? There aren’t, like, possible choices, those are subsets. The only thing we can do is what everyone is doing, that is to toss and turn in the shit we’ve fallen into. Which then takes the form of various activities, but it’s always about tossing and turning, plunged in shit.

There are not many more truthful thoughts than this. You’re a prisoner of your brain and your chemicals, even before being a prisoner of the society. And you only care about this when it’s a problem, of course, otherwise who cares, you just ride the wave.

The web

I want a simpler network, newborn, with few people living there. I want it monochromatic. I want that only a few are able to browse it. I want for it to hide something that only a few chosen ones can and want to find. Internet is boring instead. There’s everything and so there is no curiosity. Even though there’s everything, there is nothing really metaphysical. Years ago I was dreaming of drifting with my body inside the cables. Continue reading

Music is Art. Art is solace. But true Art must embrace the emptiness of everything, the bitterness of existence itself. The music must be as close as possible to Death, the ultimate salvation. Otherwise, it will just be entertainment, raw fun, ephemeral diversion.

The human output

We have created so much material, so many movies, so many books. We have covered the Earth with works of hope, sadness, love. Today they mostly make garbage; the sirs of the past wrote about man’s pain; now men enjoys themselves in the middle of the manure and those texts are seen more like work rather than pleasure.

Afterwards, everything around you is as if it didn’t exist and never existed, it has less value than a turd. Continue reading

It would be quite interesting to inhale rainbows.

We humans actually like to die. Because it is the only thing that gives meaning to our life, and that puts an end to that painful feeling of perceiving our existence (as well as – but that’s obvious – to physical and psychological suffering). But at the same time, death reminds us of emptiness and nonsense. And so, this strange paradox is created, and between the two paths, most choose to distract themselves.

Dawn

I noticed that it is not possible to go back. I could not step down from the throne nor undo what hitherto slipped before my eyes and was now as written in stone. I attached the utmost importance to the truth, and unconsciously found myself writing a cruel pact with it. The sensations tasted different. The features of reality were clear and cold. Corroded by a gray light, the walls showed the wrinkles of time. It is not raining. But the sun still hides behind the bare buildings. That sun that hides its true essence with all that light. So much light for so much darkness. Continue reading

Involution

The famous geologist said, on television, that our heads are too big, and it is difficult for us to get out of the pussy; the ribcage protects only a few organs; the veins in the legs struggle to hold up the whole body; the back, for it to keep the erect position, it needs to arch, and therefore back pain, etc.; vision also has several problems, etc. In short, we are shit. We are not as wonderful of a machine as they say, we have a thousand flaws. And therefore we are not the result of a divine plan, blah blah. Obvious stuff, it was a speech against religions, but I was more interested in the fact that evolution is still ongoing and we are currently far from perfect; his words: «we adapted as best as we could». Here you are. Difficult evolutionary natural adaptation. Interesting parallelism with social adaptation, which is ultimately strongly linked to it. And someone makes fun making memes that show how, in a certain sense, we are now living an involution. Very in tune with the cyberpunk world, which sees the end of man coinciding with the maximum technological development. Continue reading

There’s a thirst for ignorance, because for millennia there has been a thirst for knowledge. Humanity has got to know so much, too much. And as it now notices that it’s worse off than before, the desire has reversed itself, and so there is a thirst for ignorance. But this has not led to a productive step backwards, because by now the damage has already been done and it has already changed the game: it has led to a heavy, aggressive and self-destructive ignorance, not the simple smug knowledge of the old years.
