    Are you okay with being the Empress of Heaperia?

    @Lumine
    How can I do that? I'm male.

    ...

    That was a really stupid joke.
  • Oh, whoops. Looks like Death actually did register a character.

    Empress, eh? Sure, why not.
  • It would, however, mean that you wouldn't be able to own a province.
  • i wish to come up with a song lyric for this signature, but no song lyrics are coming to mind

    hey

    hey kex

    can i have a character too? :3

  • THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    CA: Yeah, I remember AltaVista. I was actually using it back when DEC still hosted it, before Google even existed!
  • Sure.
    I actually thought that, like, the leader of your province would be a retired guard of my Barony, or something if that's okay with you.
  • i wish to come up with a song lyric for this signature, but no song lyrics are coming to mind

    Yes.

    yes that sounds hella cool.

  • I listened to Pinkerton by Weezer earlier.

    I'm not surprised people consider it their best album now, it was amazing.
  • Okay, so, how good do you think my story is so far?
  • I am finally capable of musicking semi-competently in FL Studio.

    It takes a lot longer than it ever did in Audacity, but that's alright. 

  • i wish to come up with a song lyric for this signature, but no song lyrics are coming to mind
    You can make music in Audacity?

    Okay, all caught up with new posts, time to haul myass to bed. Good night!

    I'm okay with this.

    ^ Good night, Lee. I need to head off soon myself...

    'Night, General.

    It shows promise. The whole mystery aspect has me hooked-- I'm already kinda itching to know more.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    Good night Lee.
  • You can make music in Audacity?



    In a very limited, very manualized capacity, yes.

    It's generally not recommended that you actually do, though.

  • I have officially used three DAWs: Reaper, GarageBand and ACID.

    Never used Audacity for music though.

    (Except for one time where I was trying to get Waffles finished and my sister so nicely kicked me off of our laptop while I was recording -- hence, I had to use my Acer netbook to get it done, and that is why Waffles is in mono).

    This song has the creepiest fucking music video.

    No i will not link to it this late at night. You'll thank me later, probably.

  • I wanna know what kind of person puts samples intended for FL Studio in .flac format which cannot be read by FL Studio.

    REAPER made me wanna cut myself. I'm never touching that thing again.

    I only used it once. Wasn't terrible, though I only really used it to sequence a few pre-made samples from an iOS app in that one shitty song.

    I'd use it again, not bad.

    I kind of want to use Logic (since it's GarageBand's big bro) but that would require me to own a Mac (and we still don't have mine out of the shop even though it's been like a MONTH).
  • I think I'm going to upload this snippet to soundcloud. It's only like a minute, but...meh.
  • i wish to come up with a song lyric for this signature, but no song lyrics are coming to mind
    "schlocky" is now my favorite adjective
  • I posted the whatsit in the music thread if any of you want to check it out.
  • i liked it.

    (understatement.)

    I should get working on Identified. Kinda thought the project wasn't going forward after I realized my last thing sucked but hey, I guess not.
  • Whatever "your last thing" is, it will generally suck in your own eyes.

    I liked D76, even if it was rather obviously unpolished. It was still good for a first attempt at music ever.

    Also you should spend more time revising your pieces if you want some of the small amount of helpful advice I could possibly give you. In my experience, more time spent on a piece = more quality the piece has when finished.

  • Yeah, I'm probably going to try to work a bit longer on Id. It'll be short even if I did make it an "album", plus this time I've got less of that mindset where I felt like I needed to get something out.

    D76... was kinda blah but there's some merit to it though; it's much more "me" than the really old stuff I did in GarageBand in 2008 (when my strategy was repeating Apple loops ad infinitum, lol12yrold) and I still legitimately love Anorak Ave.
  • Also I'm debating whether or not I should do this one as Tre Stuck or Trevor Whatever.

    I dunno, but either way it'll still be a thing by me. So yeah.
  • Hey Central, does you have Youtube vids? :3

  • Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
    Why does Lumine's Balrog avatar look strangely fitting for Imi?

    I think it's the expression on his face.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    Balrog?


  • I'm waiting in line at Elitch Gardens. They're playing Kingdom Hearts music for some reason.

    You're in Denver? Neat!
  • An American gunsmith has
    become the first person to construct and shoot a pistol partly made out
    of plastic, 3D-printed parts. The creator, user HaveBlue from the AR-15
    forum, has reportedly fired 200 rounds with his part-plastic pistol
    without any sign of wear and tear.HaveBlue’s custom creation
    is a .22-caliber pistol, formed from a 3D-printed AR-15 (M16) lower
    receiver, and a normal, commercial upper. In other words, the main body
    of the gun is plastic, while the chamber — where the bullets are
    actually struck — is solid metal.The lower receiver was created
    using a fairly old school Stratasys 3D printer, using a normal plastic
    resin. HaveBlue estimates that it cost around $30 of resin to create the
    lower receiver, but “Makerbots and the other low cost printers
    exploding onto the market would bring the cost down to perhaps $10.”
    Commercial, off-the-shelf assault rifle lower receivers are a lot more
    expensive. If you want to print your own AR-15 lower receiver, HaveBlue
    has uploaded the schematic to Thingiverse.HaveBlue tried to use the same lower receiver to make a full-blown .223 AR-15/M16 rifle, but it didn’t work. Funnily enough, he thinks the off-the-shelf parts are causing issues, rather than the 3D-printed part.While this pistol obviously
    wasn’t created from scratch using a 3D printer, the interesting thing is
    that the lower receiver — in a legal sense at least
    — is what actually constitutes a firearm. Without a lower receiver, the
    gun would not work; thus, the receiver is the actual legally-controlled
    part.In short, this means that people without gun licenses — or
    people who have had their licenses revoked — could print their own lower
    receiver and build a complete, off-the-books gun. What a chilling
    thought.
