I've been addicted to donk bass for years, I keep a playlist of deep house tracks with a tonne of donk bass just to keep myself settled.

I know that it's an entirely synthetic sound but I am 100% convinced I can make that sound in analog with my bass guitar. I've tried a bunch of techniques but I couldn't get close so I know I have to do this with a pedal.

The thing is that I can't find the damn pedal. I don't know what you'd even call such a pedal. So I came here to ask if someone has any idea as to how I can play donk bass in analog.

Edit: I tried including a link to an example of the sound I want but I guess I'm not allowed too because it got removed as I was posting. You can try looking on SoundCloud for "DEMO 2014 - MY EVERYTHING - DEEPHOUSE" by TIEN TIEN

Over the last year I've been trying to understand why GPG isn't popular. Based on the features I think it's a pretty valid thing. This article changed my mind.

Turns out GPG is too old ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I like signing my commits, it feels good to know that my identity is actually attached to my code. So I put in some work to reconfigure git to use a different signing tool, I didn't think it would be such a big deal, turns out git fully intergrates GPG. I'm confused. Why does git need to be hardcoded to use GPG specifically?

What rule says we can't have git configs like:

[sigining]
  defaultMethod=minisign

[signing.minisign]
  always=true
  signCommand=minisign -S -s {secret-key-file} -x {sig-file-name} -m {target-file}
  verifyCommand=minisign -V -P {public-key-file} -m {target-file}

Where the verifyCommand exits 0 if the signature is good and 1 if not.

I'm open to hearing cons. These are some I can think of:

• User's have to configure git with each signing and verifying program
• Upstream security conserns from signing programs
• Signing programs changing their interfaces

I got this article in a reply to a different conversation, and for the most part I agree with it. Gpg is old and we have better ways. I like signing my commits, I like feeling that these commits are actually and provably mine. But I'm not married to GPG like I used to be, I'd like a better way. The problem is that git used gpg for signing. I learned about this new thing called minisign and I wanna use it with git. So how do we switch? And if we can't switch, then how do we fix GPG?

I just watched a TikTok about how people used to plug in things to their light sockets when electricity was first becoming popular. And they kept calling the plug a light socket, what rule says it's not a plug that screws in? And why shouldn't plugs screw in? We have material science to make plugs and cables hard enough that if you kick the wire it still doesn't come out. Electrical connections should be more secure. That's all I'm saying.

Chat GPT was highly disappointing. It wasn't even funny enough for 9gag.

Bing's AI is way more unhinged

So I asked it to generate an unhinged meme for rule 196.
