🥸Music & Communism🥸
Molly Nilsson has a new track from another album! I also looked up some old anti-communist propaganda which she used as lyrics for one of her recent songs: 100 things you should know about communism in the USA.
There were terrible copies of this floating around, but someone found and uploaded a great copy of this old Sheep On Drugs track. Sometimes I can’t believe some of the crazy shit they played on tv on the 90s.
I have what I call a ‘Spotify gap’. This is the period of time that I stopped collecting music and instead used Spotify. I now have various albums or musicians I’ve discovered that I no longer have access to that I’m backfilling. Turns out Lorn has an album I missed with Dolor, picked that up and all of The Maze To Nowhere.

⚓Free as in Freehold⚓
Freehold is a great term to talk about owning your own software. But this doesn’t relate just to software. I recently had a pest control company install termite stations around my home. When I declined the yearly ‘inspection’ they told me that this was part of the ‘warranty’ and that if i declined they’d remove the stations. Apparently I did not own the termite stations that I had thought I had purchased. I had them remove the stations and I’m looking into installing a Trelona system myself. Freehold all the things!
🔗Free Of Possessions🔗
I have too much crap and want to get rid of it but have trouble parting with it. I then discovered MinimalismTube. So far its been a refreshing change to all the ‘stuff-oriented’ Youtube I consume. I will probably do the Minimalism Game next month.
🦬Free Software🦬
FFMpeg has released version 8.0 with the main big feature being Vulkan 1.3 based compute shaders.
This kind of stuff is cool until it breaks. And then get a framework laptop and install Linux. Or in the spirit of MinimalistTube, don’t buy anything at all!
