Someone is doing a cool PRF thing in my home state. This is great.

I can't always follow FM bishopdante but that's on me, I appreciate his participation here. This forum would be a more boring place without them.
Someday I hope to toast this weirdo at this compound, and the rest of you as well.
At the risk of wildly veering this thread OT, I agree that the overwhelming maleness of this forum is at best a bummer. Thank you for speaking up as it's a matter that deserves to be addressed.Chud Fusk wrote: Thu Jan 06, 2022 4:28 am You're attributing so much power to someone you could just put on Ignore, and then resenting that person for the power you're giving them.
I'd be more concerned about the quality of threads and discourse such as the irredeemably sexist "Foxcore" thread. I've spoken to cis and transgender women about the forum before it went down, and there is still the sense of hostility toward them in this place. Never heard anyone say they don't feel comfortable because there's a guy with wild ideas about audio technology.

BD was dishing out advice that could have got someone killed. I'd have been quite happy to scroll on and ignore otherwise.Chud Fusk wrote: Thu Jan 06, 2022 4:28 am You're attributing so much power to someone you could just put on Ignore, and then resenting that person for the power you're giving them.
Ignoring is a big part of internet life.
Re: Bought some land / Building the Compound (in Wisconsin)Yeah, haha. I'll try, but unless it's clutch I'll be driving to Milwaukee / Chicago for hangs with the new film I want to start on nears uploadable stuff.

Also...my folks had a place in Central Wisconsin, sold just this last year, and slow internet there was a fact of life. Acceptable enough for normal internet use, but not at all recommended for uploading hi-res movie trailers to Vimeo.
All of this might change though, probably sooner than later.
