That's okay, I don't mind! I've enjoyed talking with you. 3nodding If you ever use discord you could add me sometime if you want, a lot easier to respond on phone with it. >w>; luin.exe

Yeah going for a cyberpunk look kinda. xp

Midi sequencers started out in the early 80s, it's changed a lot over the years definitely a lot easier to work with nowdays! I was kind of lucky when I started out, a neighbor friend's dad was really into computers and bought midi software and equipment was pretty awesome. whee He had Cakewalk and Steinberg Cubase.

Never used BandLab but Reaper is pretty good, I use an older brand called MixCraft. I haven't tried AI stuff yet, it looks interesting though. I'd just be worried about it sampling someone famous and getting sued though. sweatdrop
Nice! What kind of guitar do you have? My favorite instrument currently is a Roland AX-Edge keytar paired up with a SonicCell module.

For sure, Mega Man games music really inspired me and made me want to learn how to make music like it.

I was never very good at Chess. xp Go is a lot more complex and based on territory influence, for whatever reason I'm way better at it. Yeah way too many cheaters online that use AI to play for them now, pretty lame.

I dunno if I could teach boxing, I wasn't bad at it but not like I was a division champ or anything like that. It was fun though, just my body was giving out on me as I entered my late 20s. Had a lot of fractured bones. sweatdrop

Kendo is fun! Most places in the US don't care what age you are at martial arts studios. Yeah I don't care for gyms, rather work out at home. Too much drama at public gyms lately.
Virtual classes for martial arts.. that sounds pretty stupid. xd Maybe if we ever get real VR like Sword Art Online it could be a thing.

That's cool, I'd like to hear your music and see your drawings someday! Oh no, I hate water too. I'm good at swimming but older kids nearly drowned me several times when I was little.
So kind of PTSD about it. xd
I get my workout from working in general now, I mostly detail cars and it will wear you out doing it alone. @w@ Doing mechanical work is rough too, lifting heavy stuff all the time.

I'm not sure how long but lawyers are pretty aggressive when it comes to copyright over here. Big artists too.

That's awesome! I've never heard of classes like that. I always thought graffiti style looked cool. whee

Fairly sure I'm slightly allergic to it yeah. crying Sucks, I do like it.

I might start racing someday when I can afford to, just have to be prepared for blown engine. >w>;

It is this one

Not an amazing car but it's really good at cornering. 3nodding

Nothing particularly wrong with 30s, just felt like I have a harder time connecting with people as I've gotten older. Maybe it's just the world and people changing in general.

Yeah a lot more freedom for sure, I've always had a hard time sleeping in general. I have pretty severe insomnia. gonk

Hahah, I try! Yeah I started learning midi stuff when I was in middle school, was about 13 years old. After playing Nintendo when I was little I always wondered how they produced the music, so started learning about chiptunes and midi. whee
Chess is awesome, I used to play a lot when I was younger. I was way better at Go/Weiqi/Baduk though, I became rank 1 DAN at one point.
You do martial arts as well? I miss doing Kendo but local dojo shut down. crying Also was a licensed amateur boxer from 17-25 years of age. I'm too old now tho, everything hurts. xd

Right?! I think they are not as savage with copyright stuff there as USA.

I've never done murals but I've always wanted to learn graffiti style painting, looks really fun!

Some pizza places do that yeah. 3nodding
I actually like the taste of pineapple but for some reason causes sores in my mouth, not sure if slightly allergic or what. confused

Yup completed them so no longer taking classes. We've been thinking about building a hobby race car though, got a Toyota MR2 Spyder that we may tune up for racing.

Yeah my 20s were best years of my life so far I think. xp Life is pretty good now too.

Adulting is hard too! lol I still feel like a big kid a lot of times though.

Yeah I love it here though, the Smoky Mountains are beautiful. It's a good place to live I think. Lots of places to go fishing and hiking! It does snow here too, we had over 12 inches of snow for about 3 weeks in the winter. Can go snowboarding in the mountain nearby!

Nope not a grinch. xd

I'm not so sure, seemed more like she enjoyed having an emotional punching bag than pity. Revealed her true colors though, makes me wary to re-enter dating. sweatdrop

Vevrie Report | 06/03/2024 4:32 pm

Thanks!
Not really sure honestly, guess small record labels in Japan just let go of copyrights after they cease to exist.

Yup, I've done large canvas paintings, oil pastel stuff, little bit of everything. 3nodding
Good!

Yeah just pepperoni, a lot cheaper that way. xd I like most toppings though, just not pineapple. >w>;
Was pretty fun, we helped a friend with his car too all four of us worked on it together.

It was pretty rough, I enjoyed it though.

In school I was kind of an outcast I guess, never really fit in. Made me not want to even try to socialize back then. Thanks, it took a while. Honestly until I was in my early 20s I was pretty antisocial. xp

I get ya, yeah it does seem like the majority at times. Just those people are the loudest so they stand out the most I guess.

It does kind of, the air gets thicker so harder to breathe. I live around the Appalachian temperate/cloud rainforest.

Oh no, hope it didn't ruin everything. sweatdrop Hahah gonna see if you can fry an egg now? blaugh

Christmas is about the only one yeah.

By crazy I mean.. Okay, I'll tell you about the last person I dated which was back in winter. I went on a few dates with her, she seemed nice enough but she kept complaining about her ex boyfriend about how terrible he was and stuff. I just kind of ignored it didn't really say anything, never met the guy I have no idea what he's like, figured she will get over it in time.
Well.. One day she invites me over to her place. So I go over, a guy answers the door and tells me to come on in that she was gone to the store to buy something.
So we sit and talk while I wait for her to get back, come to find out this guy is her ex and is living with her.
The poor guy looked miserable, he lost his job and she broke up with him but was still letting him live there. Anyhow I wished him luck and told him I was gonna head out before she got back.
I went home, she called me asking why I didn't wait for her, told her I was no longer interested in dating her. She started screaming at me, cussing me out, I hung up and blocked her number. lol xd

True enough, gonna try a synthwave album first. Think it has a bit of a bigger audience than chiptune stuff. 3nodding
I used to do sample work, Future Funk genre stuff. Mainly use stuff that is no longer copyrighted, 70s and 80s Citypop music from Japan.

Yup, producing visual arts and music is something I'll never give up on, even if I don't make money at it. xP

Pizza is my favorite food so heck yeah, automatically a good time. blaugh Video games are a plus. We played 4 way co-op in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge, it was super fun!

Yup sports driving lessons, teach you how racers drive and stuff. Some offroad courses too, rally, superspeedway. It was kinda expensive but worth it.

Yea drunk people suck!

Thanks! Yup will do art and music til I die! whee

For sure, I was a wreck when I was younger. Had a very hard time socializing.

Pretty much like that here too, but there's good and bad everywhere no matter where you go I've found. I've lived all over the country and all the same. @w@

It's been storming nonstop for like.. two weeks. xD Finally stopped today.

Eh, I wasn't working here at the time. I was working at a retail store. Here I definitely can take a day off for my bday.
World is nice depending on the day. >w>; And the people you have to deal with on said day. lol
Yeah I don't really celebrate many holidays honestly.

I know, maybe someday but if not oh well. I'm just kind of tired of the dating game. A lot of women kinda really crazy nowdays. xd And yeah you're right, hard to find an honest person with good ideals.

Anyhow, good hearing from you again! I hope you're doing well.

Vevrie Report | 05/28/2024 1:02 am

Hahah, no worries!

Really? Thanks! I was experimenting with blending metal with chiptune along with some 90s Roland synth soundbanks to sound like PSX era games. whee
Dunno if I could gain an audience with stuff like it, but it's really fun to make.

Vevrie Report | 05/25/2024 1:23 am

Yeah we get storm alerts and stuff, sometimes they don't predict them though. @w@

Yup! Though it's a lot easier in rear-wheel drive manuals I find. Just takes driver skill, sports driving classes teach it. 3nodding

I'm still deciding on a genre to stick with music-wise, thinking synthwave though. https://soundcloud.com/luin_exe/geistwerks

Agreed, drinking just to get drunk is gross and lame. =w= Drunk people annoy me.
Same, I feel so out of place at parties. sweatdrop
Not really, my friends usually just gather and play video games and eat pizza. xD

Art and music have kinda been my thing since I was a kid, started drawing/painting at age 3 and started reading/composing music in middle school.
Haven't stopped since! It's more my passion than my hobby I guess, even if I'm never successful at it I'll never give up on it. 3nodding

It can be rough for sure. Somehow I've managed to get good at dealing with people despite how awkward I feel at times. xP
Romance on the other hand I've kind of given up on. lol

Hope you can find out what is wrong and get better. heart

I live around mountains so there's trees and lakes, but it's so humid. xwx

Hahahah break cake.. I like that. 4laugh

Something bad always happens to me on my bday. gonk Last birthday I was really really sick and had to work regardless. crying
Ah well, I've always just seen it as another stupid day in the same stupid world. xd I always try to make friends happy on their bday though.

Vevrie Report | 05/21/2024 2:37 pm

I'm used to it, most places I've lived have had pretty severe weather in one form or another. sweatdrop

Any car can drift so long as the driver can drive well enough to make the wheels turn faster than the traction can keep up, without landing into a wall or over a cliff. >w>;

Yeah some people can be a bit unreasonable unfortunately, not our fault they don't know how to drive stick. xd

I'm doing great! Been working on music in my spare time, gonna try to make enough for an album to post on youtube and places.
Yeah I'm definitely not a party kinda person, I kinda hate crowds.. I mean, I can handle being in an environment like that but I really don't enjoy it, alcohol either unless it's just one with a meal very rarely.

I get ya, yeah some people are pretty easy to trigger or offend nowdays or just unfriendly in general. gonk Seems like it's getting harder and harder to make friends and keep them the older I get. Pretty hard not to become somewhat distant or jaded in some way.
Glad you feel okay talking with me though! I try to be as easygoing as possible so no worries on overthinking. xp

Oh geez, I'm so sorry. sad I hope they can diagnose it for you, that sounds kind of scary. Hope you find relief soon. heart

I don't blame you, I thought about going fishing today but too hot! burning_eyes As long as you have an enjoyable day that's all that matters. 3nodding Something always goes horribly wrong on my birthday, it is cursed. rofl

Vevrie Report | 05/20/2024 4:49 pm

It was fun, but definitely not the best. BMW E36 is my favorite, it's not super fast but it handles extremely well and is super fun to drive. 3nodding

For reals, it was a mess. emotion_puke Can't really take them apart without destroying them that I know of, that one fell apart so we could look inside and show the owner.

Yeah we get that a lot sadly, people buy manual transmission cars from us and don't know how to clutch properly end up trying to call us after they destroy it.
It's definitely becoming that way for car parts, too many cheap parts falling to pieces.

Yeah I'm okay! Few trees got knocked down but other than that not too bad.

Oh!!! Sorry I misunderstood. rofl It's been storming pretty often here.

That's okay! Just thought I would offer, I know how bad depression/anxiety/lonliness can be if you have nobody to talk with. Suffered it a lot in the past. sweatdrop

I hope you have a fun and happy birthday! heart

It's pretty wild! It has a supercharged V8 so builds power hella fast. eek No turbo lag.

Oh yeah we just experienced the craziest thing ever a few days ago, guy from a dealership brought a BMW E60 and wanted us to change the fuel injectors, he bought some already and told us to put them in. Sooo we install them, car doesn't crank. Fuel lines start spraying gas everywhere. We take those injectors back out, one falls apart and inside.. NOTHING, I mean no innards, not even drilled. Bootleg fake injectors basically Mc Donalds toys made to look like injectors, had the BMW stamps and everything. xD

I hope you stayed safe! We've had a lot of bad storms here too recently. Insane how many tornados have been hitting the midwest lately. Hope you get to feeling better, I dunno if I could help but if you ever just want someone to talk with you can chat me up anytime!

Vevrie Report | 05/07/2024 5:18 pm

For reals! Naw, it's a client's car unfortunately. xp We just got a Jaguar XKR at auction that I'll get to drive tho. >w>
Thankfully, unfortunately a water pump we bought from Advance disintegrated after a customer got home with their car. =w=;
They're reimbursing us for the service and part but.. It's getting to the point that we may have to order all parts from dealerships. Sucks, it's a lot more expensive so we have to raise prices but bad parts from parts stores is getting kinda crazy.

Hope you're doing well! heart
