I’m a software developer who fell in love with teaching. Unfortunately many companies providing an education in writing code are scams, and I’m sad to say I’m working for one right now. I’ve been playing with the idea of having free “learn to code” streams, to give people the education without ripping them off.
I also am interested in getting into music production ( I have a year of piano lessons under my belt! humble beginnings lol), and I have an eccentric art style if there is a desire for visuals that don’t feel derivative and samey like most modern art efforts. Attached is my most recent art piece.
I’m not just interested in teaching, really I want to just find other people who also enjoy creating and sharing information. I don’t care about being rich or going viral. I just want a social ecosystem where “Wouldn’t it be cool if…” is likely to be followed up by “Yeah, we should try it”, or “No I already attempted that, but here is what I learned.”
Anyways I’m here to help how I can!
Do you plan on switching from piano to software? Or considered getting a midi controller? Repaer is a very popular open source tool for software music production
Piano is just a hobby really, I might start tinkering around with the Ableton free trial though, how does Reaper compare?
Not really, Logic, Abelton, Garageband is pretty good too honestly.
And I’m a Linux fan girl. I just try to be a realist about software. You can run full macOS VMs in linux pretty easily, sometimes I use them as controllers in my multiverse operating system. so like the nested hypervisor is what I call the controller. its nested hypervisor is where the app VMs are are ran.
But I’m thinking maybe at least a cheesy wine type setup is done where you load the whole VM launch the app and basically try to show you the output.
Itd be really nice to just use their free software on a platform they never intended it to be used on. I think VMs are getting good enough might be plausible to build a wrapper library to quickly make *.app software usable.
Just a thought from a tired person <3
Ah! I love linux too, unfortunately my setup couldn’t handle running games and photoshop through a VM so I switched to Windows LTSC. Have you ever played around with Qubes? Its worth toying around with and imaging you are some sort of ultra cyber criminal or something. I uh… used arch btw (I’m just doing this for the meme lol)
Hope you’ve been able to get good rest!
Yes, I have experimented a lot with QubesOS. I have spent time with the developers and made contributions to their project but utliamtely never liked using it. Multiverse OS isn’t perfect but its built around my needs
