True the settings in the app look a lot cleaner then in the standard control panel.

Like experience, the new app phones home a lot too. I blocked most of it with a pihole though but I probably going to uninstall again, just tried it this morning. Normally I extract the display drivers from the Nvidia installer by opening the exe file with 7zip. It is just an archive, no need for NVCleanstall.

I loved my Amiga 500, I liked the gaming part, but mostly made music on it all day every day.

Fantastic machine that had a 4 channel audio Paula chip and with the right software called OctaMED, turned into an 8 channel music studio. I could sample, mix, hook up external MIDI hardware. It was the heart of my mini home studio back in the day.

Word!

I had the Techno Sound Turbo.

Friend said his IBM pc could do music...bleep bleep from the motherboard speakers, lmao. Everything changed with the 16bit Soundblasters though. My first was an AWE32, it was like a betrayal to Paula.

It was Atari ST or Amiga for music back then. The Atari didn't have the sampling capabilities of the A500 until the Atari Falcon, but Atari had Cubase, and if you had a shitload of money for outboard gear, Atari was the way to go because it was compatible with most studio's at the time just as Protools today.

Before I had an Amiga 500 my fosterdad had a C64 with Steinberg Pro 16 and a MIDEX interface, a Fostex 8-track tape machine and outboard gear back in the 80s where I learned how to produce music. He had a DX-7, drumtraks and six-trak from sequential along effect pedals and what not.

Still making music on the Amiga seemed less complicated, more spontanious, my own thing so to say and a fraction of the money.

I wish I have the energy and enthusiasm for equipment and music I had back then...I have the Akai S-1100 samplers I could not afford and stuff now, they are all in storage, minimal setup now.

Yeah I am rambling on, please forgive me.

Although I agree with most you say on them being fascist asshats, there is not the slightest evidence Edison had anything to do with the killing of Topsy.

The killing was done by her handlers as they wanted to get rid of her, they could not handle her anymore after an incident with her original handler. The film of the killing was released by Edison films yes, but Topsy was killed a decade after the war of the currents, and Edison wasn't even in charge anymore of the company after the merger with General Electric.

He wasn't present during the electrocution of Topsy, did not have any electric business anymore, and again there is no evidence whatsoever that he was involved.

But Yeah, fuck 'm all, except for Topsy, may she rest in peace.

I learned about the killing of Topsy because I am very interested in the life of Tesla and his inventions. I dislike Edison because imo he did Tesla wrong, but I learned quickly that the most dispicable thing attributed to him is very likely not true.

And one stll has to spend 10 euro's on the creation credits to get a 7 euro dlc. But at least when you buy 2 times 500 credits you have paid 1 eurocent less then the 1000 credits pack. Yeah...

Survival, fountain of youth. I am mostly enjoying it. It reminds me a bit of the Long Dark, wildlife, hunting, fishing, nature and best of all no zombies.

Oh, thanks for reminding me there is a second game out. I enjoyed the first one as well.
