New report: “BART’s focus on fare evasion recovers minimal revenue, may be addressing an overstated problem, and is not effective at curbing incidents that make riders feel uneasy in the system” oaklandside.org/2025/05/16/cra…
Fare checks “took a toll. Several ‘reported that the stress of their encounters with [BART PD] negatively affected their mental health, reporting increased stress, anxiety, depression’”
Real costs to this showboating we all know is really to appease suburban legislators who don’t ride BART.
Nonetheless, the securitization of the stations will of course continue apace, because for American bureaucrats, every problem (or non-problem) is a nail which needs hitting by a hammer
I recently installed Linux Mint Cinnamon on a laptop, and I'm having a two-sided issue. Web searches have yielded no solution. I'm also very new to Linux.
Problem 1: When alt-tabbing out of a fullscreen application (at this moment, Helldivers 2), the application will minimize, but I cannot restore it. It will appear for roughly half a second, and then re-minimize. I can hear the game still running in the background.
I have tried alt-tab, super+number, and right-click>restore. None seem to work. I have tried disabling thumbnails for windows, no fix. Disabling effects, no fix.
Problem 2: As a workaround for problem 1, I tried borderless fullscreen. It works, but there is a white, 1 px border around the screen. I have tried changing themes, no fix. Same thing with disabling effects. I do like the Mint-Y theme, but there's no longer an option to change window borders, from what I've researched. Again, trying a different theme didn't seem to get rid of the white border.
I just get a quick black flicker and it goes back to minimized. I also tried changing the win argument to :SELECT: from the documentation you linked, but it still doesn't pull up the window and keep it there.
The command does work for other windows, for clarification.
An extra detail: I'm using 2 monitors. When playing with borderless window and moving the mouse rapidly, I've had my mouse escape the focused window a few times and start clicking stuff on my desktop.

Otto Kuusinen: As long as the working class wages only an economic struggle, the bourgeoisie does not see in that any great danger for itself; but when the working class organises politically, i.e., creates a political party which expresses its will as a class, the bourgeoisie begins seriously to fear for its rule. That is why reaction deals its main blows against the political party of the working class. At the same time, trying to undermine the party from within, capitalist propaganda endeavours to persuade the workers that they can do without their own party. One of the manifestations of bourgeois influence on the working class is the anarchist and anarcho-syndicalist denial of the leading role of a political party.

If you've got a server running node Javascript you may want to skip Linux kernel 6.14.6. I've installed it on about 25 machines and it's been stable on all but two, and two which have been unstable also happen to be the only two running node applications. I do not know exactly what is wrong with the kernel because the failure mode is one where it locks up hard, does not reboot, does not response to magic-sys-request, thus there is no way to get a kernel dump to see what it was doing when it dies.

I'm no longer a Hydrasynth owner. It's a great synth and I'm sure I'll miss it to some degree, but it just never inspired me the way the opsix or Pigments does, and since I have both of those and they cover nearly identical territory, I decided to sell it a few months ago.
Well, didn't end up selling it (everyone is broke rn!), but I did end up trading it -- so now I have a Roland TR-8s instead.
I used to have a TR-6s until I traded it (for some Eurorack modules), so I'm familiar with the 8s (same engine, but the 8 has individual outs, more/better controls, and more voices). I was very reluctant to trade the 6s back then because I thought it was a great drum machine but part of my logic justifying it was I could always get a TR-8s to replace it since I know the engine was good and could use the extra features.
one of my friends has been rolling on the tr-8s and they always do good work with it. i suck at composing on a drum machine, but i can attest that the controls on it are great. a lot of ground covered with that box there.
@benda The 6s was my main drum machine on Psychedelic Ghost Stories (altho that album used 3 or 4 different drum machines, plus samples and MPC drum synths), and having more voices and control, plus better I/O, in a larger/easier to play interface is very tempting. I tried to trade it (and other stuff) for a Syntakt and intended to keep that, so who knows. If I can sell off both my other digital drum machines (Model: Cycles and Volca Drum) maybe I can justify keeping the Tr8s as my digital.
@benda Pretty certain I will be keeping my DrumBrute Impact (which is the only drum machine on Mechanics of Mysticism, altho there are some sampled drums as well) as my analog machine. (I was going to consider selling it if Syntakt's analog section was a suitable replacement).

I also have a Siamese female named Tulip, but what is interesting about Lucas is that he has observed me building / repairing computers and thus knows I use wire ties, so when his food gets low he goes around finding wire ties and sets them in or next to his dish in payment for his food.

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company xAI announced on Thursday that it has updated its Grok chatbot following widespread criticism over unauthorized responses referencing a so-called "white genocide" in South Africa.
So it turns out that ChatGPT can't generate sheet music from audio. I assume it could given that it can generate LilyPond files. So I have to use some specialized tool to generate MIDI files for instrument conversion.
The AI tools are all proprietary and are subscription-based. My only other option is some online MP3 to MIDI converter.
It shouldn't be too hard because all I need is to record a short fanfare for my game. I already have a kazoo ordered which I will use to record it and then convert the thing to MIDI so it can be played with better instruments.
So it looks like the plan to record a fanfare with a kazoo and convert it to midi to play with better instruments didn't work out.
Most online audio to MIDI converters suck and the ones that don't are proprietary and expensive. They add extra notes to the outputted MIDI files and no matter what instrument you use to play the file, it sounds terrible.
Not to mention that playing the kazoo is actually a skill in of itself. I thought it was the easiest instrument, but it took me a while to realize that you are actually supposed to hum into it and not blow in it.
But it turns out that there is a decent FOSS desktop program known as NeuralNote. It it's 100x better than those subpar web apps because it doesn't output any artifact notes.
And here is the result, recomposed as a full orchestra. This is based off of a victory screech my siblings and I would make when we accomplished something or received something good.
@beardalaxy Yeah, I'm not using it. I need to come up with something better but my head always associates certain situations with copyrighted songs that it's hard for me to come up with something original.

It's all connected. 😉
"President Trump on Saturday morning went off on the growing Biden autopen scandal after disturbing audio of Robert Hur’s interview with the former president was released.
The President said the autopen scandal was a “major part” of the real crime” that the 2020 presidential election was “rigged and stolen.”
Trump also slammed “Dirty cop” James Comey for spying on his 2016 campaign.
“Whoever had control of the “AUTOPEN” is looking to be a bigger and bigger scandal by the moment. It is a major part of the real crime, THAT THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 2020 WAS RIGGED AND STOLEN! Millions and millions of people knew that, but the Radical Left Democrats waged a campaign of inoculation and innocence like none that had ever been waged before. THIS IS WHY THE UNSELECT COMMITTEE OF POLITICAL THUGS, WHO WERE GIVEN A FULL AND COMPLETE PARDON BY THE PERSON WHO WIELDED THE NOW ILLEGALLY USED AUTOPEN, DELETED AND DESTROYED ALL EVIDENCE AND INFORMATION FROM THEIR CORRUPT AND VICIOUS WITCH HUNT AGAINST ME, AND MANY OTHER PEOPLE, WHOSE LIVES WERE COMPLETELY SHATTERED AND DESTROYED BY THIS HISTORICALLY CRIMINAL EVENT. Remember, it all began with DIRTY COP James Comey, Obama, a hapless and cognitively impaired Sleepy Joe Biden, and my now very famous ACCUSATION that,“THEY SPIED ON MY CAMPAIGN!” Whoever had control of the Autopen is just the beginning. The biggest crime of all is that THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION WAS RIGGED! I (MAGA!) WON THE ELECTION BY MILLIONS OF VOTES, AND EVERYONE KNOWS IT. GOD BLESS AMERICA, FOR THE FIGHT HAS JUST BEGUN!!!” Trump said on Saturday morning in a Truth Social post."

@Lady MountainJay I have two cats, we adopted a new rescue dog, a Doberman, and one of the reasons we adopted this particular Doberman is we needed a dog that would be okay with the cats and the foster said that her cat slept on the dog. We previously had another Doberman with these cats, so they were used to dogs and this breed specifically. The relationship the old cats had was our grey tomcat loved to get the dog to chase him around the house where the Siamese cat didn't like this sort of play. Our new dog caught on right away and knows when the grey cat is in the mood to be chased and they play good together. Occasionally the dog tries to goad the Siamese into a chase, but she just lifts a paw and displays her claws and then the dog gives up.
@Lady MountainJay Yea, when my previous cat Monster (a real sweetheart huge grey tabby) died, shortly thereafter I went to PAWS intending to get another kitten (I had adopted Monster when he was already 12 years old, and undoubtedly he may have lived much longer but he was infected with feline leukemia and that took his life several months later), this time I wanted a kitten, as much as there was a sense of gratitude for being given the opportunity to give an old sick cat a good home I just didn't want to go through that grief right away so looked for a kitten. PAWS had no young cats at that point but suggested I check back in March or April when they typically have kittens so did so. They had a cute Siamese and a grey Tomcat about 7 months old, I hadn't intended to get two cats but they had been together nearly since birth so I took them both, now I've had them close to eight years and glad I did take them both as their interactions provide quite a lot of entertainment and with two cats, if one is in an aloof mood the odds are good the other won't be.

Real costs to this showboating we all know is really to appease suburban legislators who don’t ride BART.

in reply to scott f • • •IMHO dystopian transport is neither welcoming nor cost effective.
Useful insights from Yale report:
"Fare enforcement is not actually leading to significant new revenue and it’s not making riders feel that much safer"
"$9.5 million saved is significantly less than the $27.2 million the ramped-up enforcement costs BART in personnel and related fees."
"After $90 million [investment] of hardened gates that didn’t really deal with the main issue of public safety."
