>>25098
Personally, I'm just glad it's over. This last year and decade was WAY too shitty for me. Too much bad stuff happened compared to the good

>>25099
things are looking up then you think?

>Next 10 years
Can't say honestly. This decade was the most important in my life because it is the decade I discovered imageboards, games such as Minecraft, finished up public education, got more /tech/nical, and a wide variety of other things. Those who don't have good memory or just don't bother remembering perceive time as moving too fast.
In the next 10 years we are going to see the rise of multiple phenomena. The prevalence of computer intelligence, biological-computer interfaces, some major political changes with boomers finally dying off, possible war between china and hong-kong (although wars today are better fought invisibly), and generally greater separation between people as technology continues to grow, also resulting in people existing online more frequently and said online existences being perceived as is they are real with possible "laws" alongside it.

We shall see.

>>25100
Maybe you're right. It's almost over so things are getting better

>>25101
>This decade was the most important in my life because it is the decade I discovered imageboards

Oh yeah me too. That was pretty good. Saw plenty of IBs come and go. Saved a bunch of content for 4chan that got deleted off my mediafire account FML. But also have Gigabytes worth of new content from after that incident. Also found a lot of good vidya and music. So that's nice

Hopefully nothing too crazy happens in the next decade. Was planning on maybe marrying around that time. I dunno

My goal for the 20s is to become a musician.

>>25107
what instrument(s)?

This decade was at least decent for a few years. 2014/2015 saw the decline of it already. At least we got 8chan out of it... and was there to witness its destruction.

Well year is almost over. Might as well keep posting stuff here to count the year down.

>>25107
Not trolling or anything, but I actually know former and actual pro musicians that have or had an actual music careers. Can give you some advice if you're still there

Welp no answer on this one
>>25114

>>25109
> At least we got 8chan out of it... and was there to witness its destruction.
yeah that sucks. We got other IBs out of it at least



I'll be here I guess. Counting down till new years ends

Have a song /b/

>>25108
I personally do guitars and I can program a drum machine well enough. I have some friends who do some other stuff.
>>25114
I don't really expect to make a living at it, but I started making music (that's a very generous term for what I make) when I was like 14 and I just really like doing it, so it's just a hobby I have. But any advice is more than welcome.

I'm going to attach a video file that has some stuff I want to use for artwork and a quick 30 sec sound clip of an unfinished song. I'm aiming for an atmospheric black metal sound.

Austistic uprising against the super AI. The majority of normal people will become manipulated by the super AI through social media and other connected devices. Autists will have a higher resistance to manipulation because of lower EQ.

Hi there anon
Still working on this btw
>>25173

Had to work today so I'll be posting everything tomorrow

Posts will be divided under:

Constructive feedback
Music and musicians in the current century
Starting out
Making a fanbase

The Illusive record deal

Anyway, have some more cool songs /b/

I chose these because they "run" well together

OP here. Here to answer this
>>25150

Constructive feedback

I play guitar too. It sounds like you were practicing with your guitar, made a good tune and thought man this sounds pretty good, I need to record this

Which is okay if you're starting out. Think of making songs as a composition/theater play when you get much better in the future.

It has a beginning/opening,continuation, bridge, ending.

Something along those lines. Here's some basic guides to music composition. Not all inclusive but good to start

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verse-chorus_form

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirty-two-bar_form

Also, judging from your musical choice, I'd wager to think that you're a Scandinavian anon or American anon That type of music is pretty popular there.



That's all for now. Will give you some resources for you to start making music when I get some time off tomorrow

>>25197
Thanks, Anon. I'll read into those links right away.
And you guessed right on both accounts, I was practicing when I recorded that and I am indeed from The USA

>>25200
You're welcome. Nice dubs btw

Anyway, back to posting

Music and musicians in the current century

It used to be really hard to be a musician close to a century ago. But it's relatively easy to start now. You have a lot of tools at your disposal. You can even make studio-quality music on your own if you want.

Starting out

There's plenty of resources you can try to start making some music. Best advice is just to practice a lot, follow song composing patterns, find good inspiration, and have fun. Also find some friends or people to share/play music with. That helps too

Here's a few music creating programs you can look into. There's plenty more, but here's a start:

Reason
https://www.reasonstudios.com/en/reason

Fruity Loops
https://www.image-line.com/flstudio/

Audacity(Freeware)
https://www.audacityteam.org/download/

Drum machines

https://www.musicradar.com/news/the-best-hardware-drum-machines-2018-our-pick-of-the-best-grooveboxes-for-beginners-and-pros
https://consordini.com/best-drum-machines/
https://www.kickstartyourdrumming.com/best-drum-machine/

I heard Akai and Korg machines were pretty nice. Was planning on buying an Akai MIDI later on

Setting up a store to sell music and merchandise, if you ever go that far:

Bandcamp
https://bandcamp.com/

Streaming your music:
https://artists.youtube.com/
https://artists.spotify.com/
https://vimeo.com/


Done for today. Will make the "Making a fanbase" post and record deal post later

>>25098
I want the internet to be replaced by something else. Never got to experience the first days, and never will, but would be nice to have something similar.

>>25213
Dunno what can replace it at this point. Maybe VR rooms?

Do also have some stories from the early days of the internet if you want to hear it

in 2012 i ascended... partially. The world is catching up to the real world the real memetica outside of the cookie cutter cult matrix we find ourselves in. The rotations of time hence 12.21.2012

The inner is now the outer. the elite is now the neet of nothing but defeatism ingrained into their stupid heads. "its the future" DAMN RIGHT ITS THE FUTURE. TIME TO ASCEND TO A GOLDEN AGE NOT A NEW WORLD ORDER. IT CAN NEVER BE A NEW WORLD ORDER IF ITS A FORCED AGENDA BASED ON PYRAMID ESQUE OLDEN RELICS OF WHAT THEY THOUGHT CONTROL WAS IN THE PAST. WANNA TALK ABOUT GENERATIONS THE GENERATIVE IS DEGENRATING THE DEGENERATE IS GENERATING INTO A GENERAL MAN AND GENERAL WOMAN. NO TRANS. ITS NOT A TRANSITION ITS REALITY ITS REMOVING THE VEIL OF FALSE CULTISM AUTHORITY HIJACKING OUR LEGITIMATE MEANS OF AUTHORITY LIKE THE GOVERNMENT ETC. CULTS ARE A LIABILITY TO THE COORPERATE GOVERNMENT CONTROL MATRIX.

>>25098
This Decade felt strange to me as someone who identifies more with the decade before. I guess the peak though for the culture I like was 2010 to 11, when all the edgy stupid shitposting was getting noticed but before it was Corporatize fully. I don't like all the centralization on social media. Remember when every fandom and tech niche would have it's own forum? Now everything is getting pushed to social media and fandoms often exist as a cyclops. Were Bronies the last large fandom that still set up and organized around their own sites? As sad as that is. A lot of my hangouts held out till 2016 or 17 when Discord swept in and killed those that hadn't been taken out by Facebook and reddit. I could stay all negative but I actually have found friends on the few scattered communities that remain and there is still some positive developments and some places that will never succumb do to being more esoteric in nature. I see the situation as still bad but not hopeless.

I guess happy new years.

The 20's are going to be interesting in that I feel like I'm actually *in* history.

Maybe it's partly because the 00's-10's don't have a simple term like "the twenties" (no one said the aughts or teens, for example) and also the fact that those decades made up my adolescence.

More importantly though I think that the past three decades have largely been a sort of 'interperiod'. We saw the neoliberal hegemony of Europe and the US, with the downfall of the USSR. The rise of China and the precariousness of the global financial institutions means to me that things are finally coming to a head.

We are falling back into history. We aren't going to remain peaceful and (relatively) prosperous indefinitely. Now is the time to strengthen ourselves so that we may remain in history and have something to pass onto our descendants (the fact that you have managed to find this means that you have at least somewhat of a leg up over the plebs just finding out about the internet).

Happy New Years, and Godspeed anons.

>>25362
>Remember when every fandom and tech niche would have it's own forum?

It's probably being done in order to monopolize on everything and get as much money out of them as possible. Niche markets mean big bucks if done correctly.

Example: First recent Star Wars film of of 2014-2016(?) was one of the most highest grossing films of all time. You tell investors that you can pull those numbers on their products and you can imagine what happens afterwards

>A lot of my hangouts held out till 2016 or 17 when Discord swept in and killed those that hadn't been taken out by Facebook and reddit. I could stay all negative but I actually have found friends on the few scattered communities that remain and there is still some positive developments and some places that will never succumb do to being more esoteric in nature

Best thing you could do. Just try not to make as much noise and hope your hobbies don't become too popular

>>25373
I hope so. Last two decades were such a bore, I barely remember anything interesting. Do remember things becoming lamer though

Bumping this thread back up. Hope some people are still interested in talking

>>25604
The next 10 years will be like nothing in history. The current state of the world and society does not provide enough contextual information to predict or fathom what the future has in store for everyone, for it will be completely alien in its nature and presentation.

My 2010s were pretty crazy. I spent a couple years as a NEET, then I moved cities worked for a few years. Then I travelled to a few countries and got a gf, and then I went back to university. My plan for the 2020s is to get a stable skilled job and start earning decent money. I want to live cheaply and save money either to retire or buy fun AI toys. I don't think we'll have any proper VR waifus this decade, as in an AI which you can actually get emotionally attached to or have a conversation with. But we might start seeing some primitive versions.

I'd like to see more advances in computer hardware and AI. I'd hope to see further development in quantum computing to the point where the first consumer-grade quantum computers begin to be released. I'd also hope to see development of good specialised AI, for example self-driving cars which can take you anywhere, or AI which can compose music or draw art. We started seeing the beginning of these things in the late 2010s, and the 2020s are our chance to make them useful and widespread. But I think we'd need to see much more powerful CPUs to do that.

Basic VR technology should also become commonplace in the 2020s, but there's a long way to go before we can make real virtual worlds that a person might want to live in. I think the coming decade will mostly be spent refining the existing approach to VR. It will take at least another big invention to make VR really good.

Geopolitically I'd expect to see China and Russia equalise the playing field with the USA. This won't necessarily be a good thing for us, but it will have to happen. There could be a lot of tensions and possibly a second Cold War as the USA loses its global influence. Climate change will get worse but it won't get bad enough to cause major problems.

>>25643
>>25643
Sounds like an interesting life anon. Good luck on your future endeavors

>I'd like to see more advances in computer hardware and AI.

I recommend this movie in picrel. It sort of expands on what you want.

Basically

>also explores the possibilities of human robot relationships

Interesting film IMO

OP here. Whelp the new decade is starting off just right

We have a massive global scale plague show up in less than a few months entering this year. Stock markets are down. Bitcoin is down. Economies down to the poop too

Shit's fucked. Have a meme song first:

Bump for /b/ chemo

Well things are getting even worse now. wtf

School closures, uncertain economic prospects, invasive gov measures, global pandemics. Just about everything is happening right now. And this is just in the half the first year in this decade alone

On second thought, maybe the 2010s weren't so bad after all

With everything that's been going on, how have you been holding up /b/? How are you surviving these crazy times?

If things are bad, hope they get better soon. Have a classic 90's song in the meantime

>On second thought, maybe the 2010s weren't so bad after all
What I've this year is that you should appreciate what you have, even tho you might feel sad right now, because a time will come when you realize just how good you had it. Things weren't good last decade, but it was certainly a lot better than things are now. Maybe next year will be even worse than now. Hope all my fellow Anons out there feel good.

What's next, a global world war? that would just be too much for me tbh. I just want to meme post here fam

>Hope all my fellow Anons out there feel good.

Yeah you too anon

>>28950
There are a few more things scheduled to come that are very promising, especially one of them...
You think the year has been chaotic and unpredictable now, but you have yet to see how truly insane it can become. The virus and political sphere will be dwarfed by what comes later.

>>28953

its just me & my father (who i love dearly) now, i feel like i'm dreaming
i'm even able to eat more food now too
my mother used to fill the fridge and shelves with disgusting food she refused to eat nor get rid of, so my father & i couldn't reasonably eat more than a meal a day except from the local diner that we were only "allowed" to go to for a short period of time
i'm finally over 100lb now

its the last episode of the series, s8e25 "sun shines, grass grows, mothers die"
it was pretty fucking out of character, it obviously got a lot of flak, but later grown a cult following that says it was ahead of its time

>speculation and prediction about the next years
Shit seems to be going down with north and south korea, and you know if war breaks out between them the U.S.A. and China will get pulled in. If Biden wins we could be seeing a step closer to anarcho-communism, a new speech of his has convinced me he's a socialist, and the dumb fuck wants to de-fund the police. No matter who gets voted in the Jew wins. I think we've seen just the tip of the iceberg with corona, just look at Jreg's video(s) on the pandemic.

Can we make a list of all the things that have happened lately? Or is there anything available online?

Everything's been going crazy. Even the US President got the cojones virus this year

It's almost 2021, and these fucking ladders won't manifest themselves, let me tell ya, kid.

Well, its been interesting so far. I can say that much.

Honestly it feels boring without any plans. I'm not anticipating anything in particular, and really nothing new or revolutionary has revealed itself. Feels like diminishing returns when I look at the 90s and even 2000s with the internet and technology.

Well, it's 2021 now. Have things changed for anyone since this thread was made?

them not getting those deals is actually a good thing. artists that used to be good when they did stuff to bandcamp or other similar sites became worse when they got a commercial contract which makes them do whatever the masses want to hear instead of what they used to when they were independent

That's the trade off to being commercial successful and famous. You have to make things that appeal to the masses.

Too bad the masses have awful taste

Moar conflict in the middle east
The virus continues to ravage society (Not medically, but mentally)
The world continues to foster madness...

>town where I work still has a mask mandate for town buildings

Things will get worse before they get better. I just hope people get tired enough of everything going on that they fight back and initiate a chain reaction of uprising.

99% of the 2000 daily U.S. covid deaths are unvaccinated. 20 vaccinated dead compared to 1,980 unvaccinated dead each day.

Calleb Wallace of Texas organized anti-mask protests and founded the "San Angelo Freedom Defenders" to hassle local businesses with
mask-required signs. He was, of course, unvaccinated. He caught COVID in July 2021 and died in a hospital after a month on a ventilator. He left behind a pregnant wife and three children.

At 2000 a day, there will be 2 million fewer of these idiots in November 2024. If someone doesn't want to get vaccinated, give 'em a big smile and a thumbs-up. Congratulate them on their valuing their own personal freedom over the well-being of their kids and others and encourage them to meet up with each other to shake hands and slap either on the back or swap loads of virus or whatever anti-vaxxers do at their get-togethers. Help them set up GoFundMes to rent large enclosed spaces for them to hold their rallies in.

It is only in the fantasy of nerds, Jewish scientists and the same physicians-killers, medicines are made from the corpses of animals, whose embryos die from pesticides!
In fact, viruses have always been called cadaveric poisons since the time of Paracelsus.
But already in our civilization this term for some reason was called vesicles / exosomes - which are packed garbage thrown out by the cell before the division procedure. And also cellular neurotransmitters for information exchange between cells!
That is, it is a lie, a substitution of concepts in order to make shit out of corpses and use taxpayers' money to drive it into their own blood, after which they will be chronically ill and endlessly consume medicines from pharmacies. Chutzpah!
No viruses exist except on colorful pictures drawn in a graphics editor!

be it proteins misaligned &/or sigle-celled organisms who defaulted to simple ways, their existence is not to be discredited

even without kikes, again, viruses are a natural phenomena

tbh neets where the best off from the pandemic. They were already used to staying indoors anyway. Most people lost their mind from being inside all day

Who did what exactly to you? Tell you to wear a mask and get vaccinated so you aren't in the 99% of unvaccinated bozos dying every day from one of the covid variants?

>>37175

If it makes you feel any better, most of the people involved in that will be dead one day.

And if you're religious, you also get to know that they'll be in hell forevah afterwards *srs

Wonder if the site spammers will keep hitting boards a decade from now?

>>37309
I doubt it is only this website is the only one getting hit anon. But, maybe somebody else can confirm it for us

Maybe. Most people have lives and obligations outside of imageboards so we must also consider this for each poster around here.

>>37309
> I wonder if this threads OP is still around?
Imma still here fam. Just trying to think of what to write next

>Strangely enough it only ever comes towards Endchan in my experience, and I'm saying this as a janitor on other similarly slow imageboards.

the spammers that go here also spam other boards. I've seen them and reported some of it to have their shit deleted. XDDDDDDDDD

It's pretty weird because old 8chan and even 4chan had similar spam that we see here. That's too coincidental for me tbh

>Doesn't really phase me too much but I wish some of the old people would come back.

tbh I think most people that posted in general died from corona during these last few years. It certainly feels like there's less people posting on the internet nowadays

>>37397

This tbh

A global pandemic fugged everything up and now people who survived are trying to rebuilt civilization again. It's a lil bit like the Black death, except everyone got affected from it. And we also have a frequent set of dataminers pestering imageboards all the time. It's a lot to take in tbh. We'll see what happens during these upcoming years fam. Have a lil song in the meantime

Certainly the loss of the US dollar as global reserve currency. Expect poverty and crime to increase over time. Also expect many local communities to go back to bartering and trade to recoup. Vaccine passports/social credit score will not be widely accepted except for some major cities and a few commie-run States.
Russia, India and China will establish some kind of alternative trade system without relying on the Western world. I expect some Eastern currencies to be digital but backed by physical commodities (govt manipulation will likely persist though).

I agree. Sadly control freaks who reside in power absolutely will not.

>>41344
No economic collapse anywhere yet at least

Doubt it. All the countries you mentioned are too corrupt

He's just a troll poster

LOL, BULLSHIT. Many Europeans are now going back to burning trash for heat this winter as they are forced to ration energy. German industry is now fucked too with manufacturing plants shuttering all over. You obviously do not pay attention.

>All the countries you mentioned are too corrupt

The US is too. Your point....!?

>>42786

Very true. There are also protests going on in the UK over energy prices. Complete media blackout. Governments in full denial mode, and coming soon here too. Only those who pay attention understand what is really happening and why.

>>25101
>greater separation between people as technology continues to grow, also resulting in people existing online more frequently and said online existences being perceived as is they are real with possible "laws" alongside it

Not happening yet. The internet is continuing to break apart and balkanize if anything. There are still people who won't register to social media sites because they require a phone number for authentication. If I recall correctly I was online more in the last 10 years than I have been the last couple years into the 2020s. It seems like there are less things to do online now days, not more.

>>25605
>The next 10 years will be like nothing in history. The current state of the world and society does not provide enough contextual information to predict or fathom what the future has in store for everyone

So far this is true. We'd never have imagined the European economy collapsing, a massive war between Russia and Ukraine which NATO is being pulled into, growing supply chain disruptions, rapid inflation, Saudi Arabia abandoning relations with the US and turning to the BRICS alliance, etc.

>>42779
>All the countries you mentioned are too corrupt
Corruption does not prevent governments from doing whatever they want to do, essentially that is the very precedent of corruption, doing whatever you want despite rules, regulations or laws that would otherwise prohibit illegal, unjust or immoral activity. Slandering a criminal for being a criminal does not stop the criminal.

Felt as though this year was quieter than the two previous ones. Can't say I'm satisfied with how things transpired in my own personal life, but it is what it is.

Artificial Intelligence has grown much more powerful in a remarkably short amount of time. ChatGPT and Stable Diffusion are very promising and will certainly see much more use in the future (Assuming SD can remain FOSS and ChatGPT publicly available...).
The motivations of the whole Covid theater are still not yet clear, but if some of the major online theories are to be believed there will be much higher volumes of health problems and death in the upcoming future.

Thank you anon. I drank a bunch of booze last night, still a bit "hungover" (not that I feel bad from it) and no I did not commit myself to any "new years resolution" even though I probably should sober up more. After all it's just another year of corruption, bullshit and misery around the world. I don't think that will come to an end anytime soon. But regardless.... Cheers! My New Years this year was not as fun as Christmas with family and relatives but I still did the same - ate good food and drank a whole lot. Might as well have fun and live it up while we still can, right?

>War in Ukraine still going on
>Recessions around some countries
>COVID is back

well shit. This year hasn't even properly started, and this is what we're getting

Nope, this was covered in /news/ already, most AI shit being rolled out is being heavily regulated, limited, monitored and censored to a certain extent. Such AI will produce nothing more than what the gatekeepers of that AI desire it to be used for, and what content is to be shared or prohibited.

i wish this site had option to sort catalog by creation date

well you got plenty of and https://happyhentai.to

>porn site

ehh, 4ch /b/'s had that for decades.

I'm seriously hopeing that by 2021 or 22 we'll have all this bullshit sorted and we can get back to calling each other fags for the giggles.

>>45494
It's already 2023 though

>>46073
what?

>>46073
I'm guessing the youth are no longer being taught to do simple math anymore, that includes remembering dates and timelines. Sad.

>>46083
Did you fall asleep for a couple years and just wake up from a coma? The year is 2023. 2021 and 2022 already passed us all by.

>>46084
>The year is 2023
OH FUCK, MY CASSEROLE! ITS BEEN IN THE OVEN SINCE 2020!

the plans i did have were all pushed away indefinitely by my greedy sociopathic uncle. the cycle continues being surrounded by trash people making it harder for me to care about anything

>>46087
You can always work on your plans later anon

>>46086
>OH FUCK, MY CASSEROLE! ITS BEEN IN THE OVEN SINCE 2020!
2024 is almost here so it'll be in the even for over 4 years by now

Oh shid, there's a war in the Middle East now. Shit is getting intense tbh

>>48476
It is far, far worse than you can even imagine if you pay any attention to what is really going on around the globe, including the geo-political and economic side of events unfolding. Buckle up. We are living history that will determine what future YOU are going to end up living in at this point. Signs are not pointing to a pretty picture anon.

I guess we better make the right decision here and now then. Lest out descendants curse us for all eternity once we all reach out graves

Happy new years you /b/astards. It has been almost 4 years since this thread was made and it's still up.

r8 my autism

>>49373
Wwonder how many people are still posting here though

>>49536
because it's interesting

There's always a few interesting threads going on hear, at least

There are 2 major wars going on right now. What does /b/ think is going to happen within both of them?

Bumping this thread up to chemo the board. What's up with the posts here lately? They're all weird.

>>51625
Some foreign spammer keeps bumping his America-hate threads 24/7. We just have to bump other decent threads back from time to time.

>>49982
I don't know how awful the world is going to get but I am going to do my best to stay out of the whole mess. All governments are corrupted, they don't protect the interest of us citizens anyway. If anything citizens are treated as cannon fodder during wars so I'll lay low if a hot war ever breaks out.

>>51646
They're bad we all know that already, but you are worse for spamming complaints about it here 24/7. We got your message long ago!

Still here through these many years.

I don't hold much hope for the world anymore. Things will probably continue to get worse, societies will become more balkanized as individuals give up and/or live in their own little bubbles. As the global economy continues to face greater risk of crisis and supply chain disturbances due to wars, governments will likely become more totalitarian and oppressive towards those who feel the pain and speak out the most. It's cruel but totally and utterly predictable.

done have to once again

>>52920
i am here hoping everything gets better once more, it probably wont during my lifetime but hope is all i have
