One more song recorded! It sounds so good.
I just made a six minute industrial dance song? Yes.

Sad that Linux/Proton has these issues but not sad that I don't have to deal with Windows 11, lol. Hopefully it gets sorted out in a proton update.

Conn.RAR @connrar.bsky.social · 8h

Okie. Good to know. I'll give it a try. I was trying out another idler - Bit Buddy - on my own because a cartoon pug frantically typing along with me is adorably hilarious. I had issues with transparency as well. I figured it was a proton thing.

Conn.RAR @connrar.bsky.social · 8h

I did look at your game just now. I may try it out in my free time this weekend. Hopefully it's got some good compatibility with Steam's proton.

Nope. Not at the moment. I got about a dozen I will be trying out.

Heads up to those going to a No Kings protest - I'm pretty sure the government is going to use this as an opportunity to invoke the Insurrection Act and have a bunch of ICE agents among the protesters so:
-keep your wits about you
-be aware of your surroundings
-look out for each other

LOL! Referring to my Mercury Marauder

Conn.RAR @connrar.bsky.social · 1d

Two things are clear:
1) I need to watch Vanishing Point
2) I want to make a music video with my Marauder

Lead Into Gold has "Chicks, Speed, Futurism". What if I had "Dudes, Speed, Brutalism"? LOL

Conn.RAR @connrar.bsky.social · 1d

Of course. I wouldn't expect anything else.

Conn.RAR @connrar.bsky.social · 1d

It's very hit or miss but there are some songs on here that give big OVA vibes so I had to pass it on because I know you would also appreciate that.

Conn.RAR @connrar.bsky.social · 1d

@alphachromeyayo.com I feel like this album might be up your alley a bit

It's the anniversary of this album. Never listened to Information Society outside of their big hit. This album has its moments. This track to me has anime OVA vibes. Like this would play in a scene that was in a bar at night.
