    The French isn't my concern. It's the barrage of utter nonsense from some that I can't understand. I've given up even trying to guess
     
  7. That's as maybe, but you have over five hundred more posts here than me yet three hundred and seventy odd fewer likes from readers.

    You are a waste of space Gyro. You clutter this forum with idiocy and inanity and dress it up as something important.

    hey, no reason to turn this into another os war, as we all know how tired that is. Yeah, I use a mac, have for 30+ years doing this. They haven't been expensive for me, as hell, i still got my 2009 4,1(flashed to 5,1) cheese grater working that I bought for ~2k back then, and its keeping up just fine. That's value to me. I don't begrudge anyone using another os, whether it be windows or linux or whatever... whatever gets the job done.

    I was happy to see Cashmere's work appear. I am not happy that as @SAiNT and others have said, well, if those installs are editing hosts files etc, that is malware and Tone2 type shit. Not cool. I respect Cashmere's ability without question, and was respectful and thankful myself. I don't know why it all went thermonuclear, and I don't know why she won't respond to SAiNT, as in my experience, he is a completely reasonable person and just wants to keep things simple and running smoothly without drama and serve the community he hosts.

    I do believe in honoring releasers requests in terms of if they ask things to be exclusive or not shared elsewhere and whatnot, as I know this is all grey, but we can show a little respect for each other in the spirit of "try before buy" and all help each other out. I DO tend to buy the software I try out at the sister site that I use, as an artist myself, I do believe in supporting the developers and paying them for their hard work if I am going to use their hard work and products. That said, the sister site has saved me thousands of dollars in saving me from myself in buying crap product. I am very thankful for that.

    I think we can all agree to try and enter the new year without drama, hopefully this cashmere stuff can be resolved, (and this puts an end to the rumors of cashmere being an alt of our beloved Copylefter, as we all know he never ever ever would do this kinda thing...)..

    best to all.

    I'm new here, I think what @Gyro Gearloose does and and fights for is very important for this community to stay as healthy as possible. Ok maybe overreact at times but again freaked out by idiots which is totally understandable, in my opinion it should never be banned.

    my 2¢

    I wouldn't say insulting a big cross section of the audio community is ever 'healthy'.
    Having a discussion 100% agree. But these are rarely discussions, they end up merely arguments and slagging matches.

    Post a reply and read the response, that's the way. Not 15 replies to yourself.

    Anyone remember the time R2R added entries to your hosts file when installing their releases to block a site they didn't like? It didn't seem to offend anyone then... ;)

    Mind you, Cashmere should probably go into marketing - she's generated more discussion and use of her name with a handful of posts than I think I've ever seen. Maybe it's just a clever self-promotion thing... :lol:

    It did. But was transparently and non automatic.

    They warned the user about it, that's the main issue. You had to run, voluntarly a dedicated tool to edit the host, nothing happened behind your back. Other thing is they blacklisted sites that included the R2R name in the name of the site, and not only sold their releases, but also had "releases" with viruses. So, not just a matter of bruised ego because of the stolen name, but the need to protect the user.

    Not that it kept some from going on those site anyway, hoping to get the latest cracked cubase update or whatever. Going there after being warned was just being stupid, and anyone can be that.

    And actually a lot of people were mad about it. Because the releases didn't work without the right entries in the host. Windows users seem to be more touchy about privacy violation. Matter of - good - habbit ?

    The only precedent to Cashmere I know is the a..hole Markus from Tone2. He's the only rival to cashmere. Great crowd.

    ... or even better is building a dual boot hackintosh, so you screw Microsoft and Apple! Aa a result you have the best of both worlds: excellent PC hardware with an excellent operating system for a few bucks. :wink:

    Well it's a matter of taste really. Can't stand MacOS. Hackintosh or not.
    I'm not saying it's a horrible OS, not stable, not working or whatever. It just doesn't click with me, seems clumsy.
