Fucking external HD decides to act up last night - the data is still on it, but can't be read.

Fuck a bunch of dicks.

You can probably pop it out of the case and put it in a stationary computer.

It's not in a case, I just drop it into an external bay.

I actually fixed it last night. So fws in the end.

come to australia ..

Been thinking about this as well, that WHV thing... I'm feeling more and more like there's nothing for me right where I am... The thing is WHV really just means one year of good times and work, then a come back to what you've left only to see things have (of course) not changed and maybe are even worse.

or you weasel your way into the Australian system somehow by studying or something else that allows you to extend your time and eventually apply for permanent residence. that's if you wanna stay in Aus. but then delete will hate you

My skills are mostly site specific, aside from equipment operation. I am looking mostly for an interim position as being recalled back here is a very real possibility. What are you looking for people for?

This is my dream. At least the dlet hate thing. *skateboards on public webcam*

General labor + equipment operators (forklift, front end loader, etc).

 

What province are you in btw, for some reason you didn't register as a Canadian to me all these years.

Feeling almost bipolar when considering my next music project. Right now there's nothing better than Ae NA 2015 to get inspired by, but at the same time I keep thinking anything I make won't even come close to the skill level of their performance.

But if succumb to self-doubt and decide to throw in the towel altogether...shit.

Just make some noises you like, dogg. Worrying about quality is pure sand in the gears

Can you imagine if everyone quit making music because they heard how good AE is?

 

The music making process is cathartic for me. I need to get back into it.

True. Besides, comparing oneself to others is high school mentality.

 

Back to it, then.

hopefully you share some of what you make! I'm looking for new ideas myself. Good luck, have fun :)

maybe what you want is not their music skills but their fame

I am in BC on the Sunshine Coast. I already run different types of lift trucks, loaders, rock trucks.. I hope to get back to my mill and continue with my ticket but until then I am open to anything. I am still young so I have time to figure shit out.

I'm trying to use headphones but it feels uncomfortable as fuck with my glasses.

that's exactly what I use for commuting and stuff like that. BUT I like to produce music, and I don't want to wear out those (Sony XBA 3) with normal listening to exhausting mixing (plus earbuds are not that good for producing).

 

Yesterday I won some cheap headphones, with a freq.range of 18-20, which I believe is okay, and I thought I could make music with them... And yeah, they don't sound thaaaat bad but it feels like shit with my glasses... :(

Haha, well meme'd, my friend! In fact I tried, well not relying on my ears but just sticking my eyes to my laptop screen. Possible but hard to do.
