so when i was a kid i used to draw stick man comics and i called these, well, "stik man comix". i did these in elementary school, "rebooted" the series and did some in high school, and now i plan on "rebooting" it again and making it a web comic. at @stikmancomix.bsky.social

been thinking about this project for a while because i felt like i wanted to meld mid 2000s vibes with modern humor and sensibilities. i want to make the writing more mature than what i did as a kid without it losing the whimsy.

Decided to do a much more in depth rant about custom m-vave fm-1 firmwares as a appendix to my rant on vibecoding The idea of custom firmwares for the fm-1 is exciting but the fact most if not all the firmwares are vibecoded makes it much less exciting so im gonna blabber about it 🧵

is the only firmware i would confidently put on my synth It's really sad that vibecoding fm-1 firmwares is a major trend. I hope more custom firmwares release that don't use AI assistance or vibecoding in their development. The moment a non-ai firmware releases i am totally using that

Baud Girl The only reason I recommend this one is that it is such a massive enhancement to the fm-1 ui wise The creator has said that ai was used in its development, but it is the only one out of all the custom firmwares where there's actually some human thought and care put into it

The biggest issue is that the whole reverse engineering effort could also have been using AI as well, similar to most modern game decomps. Worst part is: a lot of people are fine with this. This is a bad look for both the fm-1 itself and the community behind it.

What is the fm-1? It is a 40-80 dollar mini fm that does 12 voice polyphony, multi effects, 6 operator FM synth that sounds almost as good as the DX7 and it even has wireless and wired MIDI support, a speaker, and batteries. It is a MASSIVE value for 80 bucks. Other similar synths cost way more!
