I’m not the expert but it seems naive to think animal testing is the one and only way. It’s just an already established norm with some regions requiring it for eligibility of sale, that’s why it’s still as prevalent as it is

I think he ends up the MCP, he does in Kingdom Hearts at least

Bad Batch was better in my opinion

It does if it diverts attention away from other potential cures, not to mention making the animals’ sacrifices even more in vain

The fact that we are not the animals they test on so they can never guarantee it’ll react to humans the same way it does to the animals? That doesn’t follow logically?

This is one of the reasons why animal testing is not worth the torture the animals go through

I preferred path of neo personally. It just played better in my opinion and i found the extra bits fun padding for a game i wanted more of

Toy Story 2

Didn’t know you could buy used licenses, I’ll definitely have to look into them. Thanks again.

Ooo thanks for the zrhythm reco. They might be suitable for me because i liked my time with the bitwig trial, but I’m below even a hobby music maker and only like to mess around every now and then so paying the price they ask for is probably not financially responsible for me at the moment.

I’ve always struggled installing it on wine. But I’ve never been good at wine and other windows translation stuff outside of letting things like steam and heroic install and manage those things for me.

Bigwig Studio is made by some of the original Devs of Ableton i believe and from what I’ve messed around with it in a trial. It’s way better (stylish too). If I was less of an occasional dabbler in music production I’d absolutely pay for this. Linux is not a second class citizen to them which is great, any VSTs they release themselves always work on Linux natively too.

Theres also reaper, but I feel like the barrier to entry on that one can feel a bit daunting. It never feels just ready to go for a newcomer.

Theres also a bunch of different trackers that are Linux compatible some with VST support too, but that’s a very different way of making music from the traditional DAW.

I ultimately don’t think he’s a bad guy so I’m rooting for him to show us wrong.

I think he always just believed in his vision too much and didn’t realise that he and his team couldn’t end up delivering on it. And then he’d be so excited about what he’s working on that he just couldn’t not share it with others. I don’t think he ever intended to mislead.

I know there’s the milo thing but with that I feel like he still thought they could do it in the end but Microsoft just needed something right there and then to show. I think that issue ends up more squarely on whoever sold him on what the hardware could do and he had not yet fully hit those walls of limitations enough to realise they weren’t coming down at all. (I also think this goes for Sean Murray too when he did the talk show circuit that Sony put him on - although without the hardware stuff and more on whether or not they could deliver on time since they’ve shown what they wanted was actually possible with future updates)

If you are able to i think ensuring they’re installed on different drivers alleviates most issues

Hmm it seems the speculative market loves speculation rather than actual results…

Be careful, windows can fuck up some dual boot setups and make the Linux side worse

When you become addicted to something, taking that something will often bring you back to baseline due to the cravings you have when not doing that addictive something. At least that’s how I see it. It’s like when smokers say they feel less stressed when they smoke, but really they just feel normal when they smoke because the addiction stresses them out when they’re not smoking.

I agree with your statement by the way except for this is also politics

No, the rest are a combination of ones not been verified yet and ones been proven false.
