I remember laughing at business-aspiring folks rocking bluetooth earpieces back in the day, and now everyone walks around with at least one airpod attached to their skull.
Edit: forgot a "to"
OneDrive decided to kick on after an overnight update and uploaded some projects and vst plugins to the cloud. Apparently, the files weren't accessible except via the cloud, so I lost a few hours re-downloading my folders before I could do anything. I don't know if I've ever been more furious over technology that I theoretically owned.
I got a PC in order to eventually go back to Linux, where at least I know that when something goes wrong, it's generally my own fault and somewhat easy to troubleshoot. Unfortunately, the plugins I've been using only have Windows and Mac versions. If I had done a bit more research, I probably would have just gone with an apple device.
Sure, but why's the coke mirror on the floor??

I started on a small instance that fortunately gave a heads up when they decided to shut down. When I moved to a second, small instance where I ported all my community subscriptions, it shut down with no warning. It's a shame, because both instances were topically-focused and small enough to avoid defederation drama.
I love the idea of decentralized infrastructure, but now I'm on .world because I just don't have the time or willpower to move every few months, and I definitely don't have the wherewithal to run my own instance.
