Has anyone ever bought the knockoff Lego sets from aliexpress? I don't mean the generic stuff but rather the listings that straight up copy a set, like this T1 camper van which is a copy of a discontinued Creator set. I'm tempted to get it because it's a tenth of the price for a used one of this set on ebay and I was wondering about the quality. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005731929015.html

ableton seems to be the only software to fully take advantage of the entire control surface, but the lights are all controlled over the MIDI protocol so in theory more software could be specially-tailored for this

got a new midi controller so of course the first thing i do isn't use it for any musical reason but rather write a python script to control the rgb lights in it

the fediverse and cliques intent on pushing queer people (especially trans women) off it have been giving me ptsd since 2017 with gaslighting tactics and yeah i lick my wounds about it because sometimes i do want someone to pat me on the head and tell me i'm ok isn't that the whole point of being constantly told it's ok to ask for help because it doesn't seem to do anything
