    Not from personal experience, but it seems that it's an all around decent synth/sequencer/sampler that makes a good musical scratchpad. People like it, and if I had a g to spare, I…

    Personally the association with Teenage Engineering makes me more concerned that this will not be as exciting as it sounds. TE's Op-1 is a fine piece of kit, but their recent offer…

    You should be careful with this, you'll wear a hole in your instruction set.

    Money is a coercive agent in any situation, and coerced sex acts are rape.

    Pornography is more than hyperstimulation: the messages in pornography are hateful towards women and minorities. Coupling those messages with the reward of orgasm is going much fur…

    I realize that not everyone accepts that pornography is inherently harmful as a medium, and thought to avoid that discussion (which has been going on for longer than we've been ali…

    I'll go further than imply, and outright state that pornography is inherently and irredeemably bad. Enough has been written and said about it, so I'll leave that to you to sort out…

    I don't think that this 'fake humanitarianism' is limited to the valley: this happens everywhere, and it really is terrible. Your gleeful materialism is pretty offensive too though…

    If someone's going to assert that socialism is bad, as an accepted fact, I really can't take them seriously. He also immediately calls his opponents children, and says that they wa…
