ChanServ changed the topic of ##yamahasynths to: Channel dedicated to questions and discussion of Yamaha FM Synthesizer internals and corresponding REing. Discussion of synthesis methods similar to the Yamaha line of chips, Sound Blasters + clones, PCM chips like RF5C68, and CD theory of operation are also on-topic.

<andlabs> okay I've narrowed the problem down to the flux engine, somehow
<andlabs> drives work fine with the working picoPSU
<andlabs> but the first time I run the rpm command to test everything it just reports "operation timed out"

<superctr__> apparently she believes in QAnon
<andlabs> japanese politics disappoints me
<andlabs> look up the term "Netouyo" mentioned in a reply in that post
<andlabs> it appears that they have already reached peak online social media polarization :/
<superctr__> those were the same people that shouted "white pig go home" a few years ago
<sorear> optimistic to call this the peak
<andlabs> can you get more polarized than "completely isolated from the rest of the world"
<andlabs> almost exact words
<andlabs> (wikipedia)
