Why is anyone considering staying on X?

Most of the music production companies are terrible to customers. Between mailing lists, info harvesting, and iLok I can see why the pirate scene for VSTs and samples is thriving.

The closest thing I know of is an API-only solution with no front-end: https://github.com/h2non/imaginary#supported-image-operations

Not really. I have unavoidable financial obligations coming soon that I will need this payrate for. I actually love the work I do, too, but I have a distaste for the employer, so it’s a weird feeling. I get to play with Linux and containerization and Python, which I love, and I’m generally self-managed, so the only thing wrong with the job is that, at the end of the day, my work feels wasted where I’m doing it. On the other hand, I use the skills I gain at work outside of work on OSS stuff, so it’s an OK tradeoff.

I do. I’m riding out the clock. I’ve already put the time in and am grandfathered into better retirement/severance benefits than I could get anywhere else. I hate it, but I have a family to feed.
