once it started being more profitable to sell Cloud Services instead of little boxes with electronics in them, that's where it went wrong imo. they only put things in boxes for guitar players and hipsters now, and they're all just raspberry pi's or android tablets or something

‪i don't want a Cloud Subscription i want a metal box with extremely powerful dedicated silicon in it that can do whatever an equivalent box in 1999 could do, but like 100 times more of it. and with a cute little backlit monochrome LCD, cool buttons and a MIDI port‬

‪i gotta found a startup called Middle-aged Engineering that makes a €1000 box that has a literal terabyte of samples in ROM and like 16384-note polyphony. VCs please address your cheques to hikari_no_yume enterprises påhittsbolag, 123 ickexisterande gata, malmö sweden‬

#Germany just passed a new law, called #SBGG, that grants #trans, #inter and #nonbinary people the right to change their official name and gender without much bureaucracy. It takes in effect at Nov 1.

What they need to do is request it as some office, wait 3 months, then request again and it's official.

#SelfID

This will replace an old law that in the past forced trans people to divorce or even undergo operation in some cases, just so they can change name + gender marker. This was ruled unenforcable a few years ago. And to this day, trans people have/had to get the approval of bureaucrats who claim to be psychological experts (they often aren't) in a long, demeaning and expensive (thausands of euros) procedure, where they ask EXTREMELY intrusive personal questions.

On Nov 1, it will be nuked forever.
