Seems extremely likely. I'd guess that or that religion was initially founded because people couldn't explain why things were happening. Or it could just have come from the purely philosophical argument of what happens before/after death.

Religion and I are incompatible, as I refuse to follow any rules that say I can't abuse my body. I'm open to the idea that there could be a god... but if so, they likely aren't the loving variety.

This situation is super fucked, and I feel horrible for her. Maybe some of the men doing it truly believed it was a fetish / consensual though, it's incredibly hard to say without seeing the messages. Either way they definitely should have checked in with the wife, and not have trusted the husband (who was the only conscious person they interacted with).

community.spotify.com
I have used Spotify for years, in spite of the fact that they pay artists terribly - the reason for this was that out of all the streaming services, they had the largest and most complete weekly playlist of new releases. Having a new release playlist like this is quite important for DJs (or people who curate popular playlists... or people who just like music). I searched online and found that people have made posts on reddit stating that their new release playlists have also been severely limited. After going to the Spotify forums, I came upon the bullshit I have linked, in which a Spotify employee tells everyone complaining that the playlist has always been limited to 30 tracks, and if anyone received more it was a temporary glitch (despite people providing evidence of having 200 tracks for 5+ years), or was caused by external factors (??? lol). Personally I hate it when companies do things like this. I am not sure whether they are trying to get their power users to quit, or if they truly believe that they can get away with lying so blatantly. I have decided that I will no longer be supporting them. Figured I would share in case anyone needs to make a decision regarding which service to go with.

Ahoy mateys, I've recently been trying to set up a win10 machine for seeding, but have been having weird network issues shortly after I lock the screen and stop interacting with it. My internet connection goes down entirely for this PC, but not the whole network. Restarting fixes the issue. I have already ensured power saving is off for my network card - does anyone have any other suggestions that I could try? Thank you!
I already had a cyberghost sub, but decided to try to switch to something better for seeding. I have tested ProtonVPN and PIA, but ended up refunding PIA as the port forwarding didn't work once. ProtonVPN has worked maybe 5% of the time, and will likely be refunded as well. Is there such a thing as a VPN that can consistently forward ports? I'm considering trying AirVPN next, but am hoping someone could confirm whether it works or not first. I'm also open to any other recommendations. Thank you!
The new dashboard UI has by far the worst UX I have seen in a gaming product - they removed the ability to customize anything, instead opting to turn the whole home page into an extension of the store. You can no longer have it only show things you own, nevermind things you're interested in. With this in mind, is there any way to load a different dashboard onto the system using dev mode? I'm seriously considering selling my Xbox and buying a ps5 at this point... I am also morally content pirating every game Microsoft makes from now until I die.
It came as an update, and I installed it without thinking. I did see the size before launching thankfully and uninstalled - how screwed am I?
I've seen a few other terminal emulators floating around different app stores - has anyone tried these, and found that they were actually better than Termux? Would love to check out any recommendations!

## Ableton User Group Resource Thread - Part 4 - Production Resources ### Sample Players / Plugin Hosts Recommended free sample players and plugin hosts. Some of these are needed to play the sample libraries listed below. - [Decent Samples - Decent Sampler](https://www.decentsamples.com/product/decent-sampler-plugin) - Plugin to play Decent Samples libraries. - [Native Instruments - Komplete Start](https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/bundles/komplete-start) - Bundle of free plugins. Contains Kontakt Player and Reaktor Player, which are needed to play some free libraries and instruments.

Bundle contents can be installed individually. - [Plogue - Sforzando](https://www.plogue.com/products/sforzando) - Free player to play SFZ and SoundFont libraries. ### Sample Libraries Most of the samples you need can likely be recorded yourself, or are already available in Live. Maintaining a large sample library can take a lot of work, so I would recommend only downloading samples you know you will use. I would also recommend organizing your samples into folders by type (e.g. kicks, snares, hats, etc.). When using samples that aren't included in Live, using the 'Collect All and Save' feature is generally a good idea so you don't misplace project files. You should always check the license of any sample library you use in your productions. Some of the libraries listed below may not be licensed for commercial use. If you are unsure, contact the creator of the library. - [99 Sounds](http://99sounds.org) - [Caelum Audio](https://www.caelumaudio.com/CaelumAudio/?Page=FreeSamples) - [Cymatics](https://cymatics.fm/pages/free-download-vault) - [Decent Samples](https://www.decentsamples.com/?orderby=price) - [Free Sound](https://freesound.org/search) - [kb6 Drum Samples](https://samples.kb6.de/downloads.php) - [LANDR](https://samples.landr.com) - [Music Radar](https://www.musicradar.com/news/tech/free-music-samples-royalty-free-loops-hits-and-multis-to-download) - [Producer Loops](https://www.producerloops.com/download-products-by-type/index1.html?&sort=price&sort_direction=0&ppp=32) - [Sample Focus](https://samplefocus.com) - [Sample Swap](http://sampleswap.org) - [Samples From Mars](https://samplesfrommars.com/collections/free) - [Sounds Resource](https://www.sounds-resource.com) - [Pianobook](https://www.pianobook.co.uk/packs) - Decent Samples format (see Decent Sampler above). - [Virtual Playing Orchestra](http://virtualplaying.com/virtual-playing-orchestra) - SFZ format format (see Sforzando above). - [Versil Studios Freeware](https://vis.versilstudios.com/products.html#freeware) - SFZ format format (see Sforzando above). ### Plugin / Live Device Sources You don't need to buy plugins to make good music - the stock plugins in Live are more than enough. If you get into plugins, you might develop a problem, spend tons of money, and spend all your time managing files. But if you want to get plugins, here are some places to look. Note - M4L devices require Live Suite. - [Audio Plugins For Free](https://www.audiopluginsforfree.com) - Site that hosts free plugins. - [Fabrizio Poce](http://fabriziopoce.com/download.html) - Developer of Ableton Live devices. - [iZotope](https://www.izotope.com/en/products/free-audio-plug-ins.html) - Developer of audio plugins, highly regarded for mastering and audio cleanup.

### Ableton User Group Resource Thread - Part 1 - Introduction This is a collection of resources for Ableton Live / Push / what have you. Based on learning resource threads on Reddit - but in the spirit of Lemmy, focused on free resources. (Yes, I realize Ableton Live isn't free, but the resources can be! 🙂) There will be a section of recommended paid resources at the end should you want to spend money. When I started this list, I was planning on more or less doing a copy / paste from the Reddit version - however, I ended up doing a bit of a rework... it took longer than I'd care to admit. Please let me know if you'd like to recommend any updates - maybe I missed something, or maybe I've accidentally included someone who has done something terrible (or is just a bad teacher). There is an edit button, so I'm open to suggestions. Hopefully this is helpful to someone! *Note: this collection of resource threads will be converted to a single post once the character limit is increased.*
I generally use the following: - uBlock Origin - SponsorBlock - Honey - Wayback Machine - Netflix Watch List Manager - Shadertoy plugin - RES.... What does Lemmy use?
