Looks like the fear of the Linux desktop is here?!

Prism-Stream now shows channel note on/off activity, next/prev work, remove song works, and you can see some live coding because I was drawing channel activity one line too high lol
So yeah, it's now usable enough that I can use it as an auto-advancing and auto-repeating player while I'm playing Satisfactory :-P But until I add the file browser, I don't feel it's ready for release yet.
haven't posted fish content in a while but he's finally 2 months old and coming home with me, im super excited, look at my handsome #cats #kittens #cat https://redd.it/uotloz
unoptimized, no file browser yet, no visualizations yet, and it's rather basic... but here's what my Prism-Stream MIDI player is starting out as. This is 100% Common Lisp, too :D
It uses my CL-MeltySynth library for the synthesis engine. The TUI is ncurses-based, but using my own TUI library that abstracts a lot of stuff. I forget I have it most of the time...
"Who are you?"
"A deep and philosophical question. How does one know thyself, and by detailing my existence in text wouldn't I then be reducing it to words? Could simple works capture my very essence? Even if they could, does who I am not change in every breath? By the time I discovered and finished detailing my life and its purpose to you wouldn't that description already be outdated? Does attempting to describe myself change who I am?"
"Sir this is a Wendy's."
The next CL-MeltySynth (my SoundFont synthesizer for #commonlisp) update won't be as big as v2.0.0 was, but the midi123 example program will have a few improvements: songs don't immediately cut off when not looping, a time display, volume control, and it'll now come as an AppImage.
I've also started work on Prism-Stream (the full-featured fork of midi123), but man has it been a while since I've done ncurses programming in Lisp... Gotta refresh what I know ^_^
Anyway, draft NEWS file: https://chiselapp.com/user/MistressRemilia/repository/CL-MeltySynth/file?name=NEWS&ci=a713eee268d9d28be0ae54670bd12183d250b432755909b564d3a7f8804a3287
My daughter was redecorating her room, and wanted a large solar system poster.
So, I designed a set that reflects the "world-focused" view of the Solar System that I've used when presenting planetary science to kids -- emphasizing moons, planets, and dwarf planets as worlds in themselves.
I did a print run, and I still have some for sale in my shop. The individual posters are 19"x27".
