Still feeling incredibly grateful for all the love and support since my Grammy win. I truly wasn’t expecting the outpouring of messages here, and it means more than I can say. Thank you to everyone who took a moment to reach out, celebrate, and share in this with me — community like this is everything.

I’m still trying to process this… I just won my first ever Grammy 🏆

Winner for Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella for Super Mario Praise Break, arranged by Bryan Carter, Charlie Rosen, and myself with The 8-Bit Big Band. Deeply grateful to God, my collaborators, and everyone who’s supported this journey.

Hey #Drupal 8 #D8 #Composer friends, I'm having a weird composer issue:

Admin pages suddenly crash, seemingly out of the blue:

```
UnexpectedValueException: Invalid version string "main" in Composer\Semver\VersionParser->normalize()
```

It seems like Drupal is trying to see if there are core updates (>= 8.9.20), and then receives a "main" version identifier that composer can't deal with?

Possibly related to the new "main" branching scheme in D11 pushed 2 hours ago?

History, housing, harmonies: Tokyo-based artist Melos Han-Tani draws inspiration from the everyday for his games, music and writing. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/community/2025/09/12/our-lives/melos-han-tani-game-designer/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #community #ourlives #expats #videogames #gaming #composer #music

Today in Labor History August 12, 1936: The First International Brigades arrived in Spain to fight against Franco. Organized by the Communist International, between 40,000 and 60,000 men and women from around the world fought on the Republican side against the fascists. 10,000 of them died. Thousands more international activists joined anti-Stalinist forces, like the socialist POUM, or anarchist groups, like the FAI, CNT and the Durruti Column. Americans defied federal law to participate in the International Brigade, as members of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade. Famous Lincoln participants included Avant Garde composer Conlon Nancarrow, labor organizer Delmer Berg, scifi author Theodore Cogswell, novelist William Herrick. The Tom Mooney Company, named for San Francisco labor organizer, Tom Mooney, who was wrongly imprisoned for the WWI Preparedness Day bombing, was commanded by African American labor organizer Oliver Law, the first African-American to command an integrated American military unit. Many African-Americans joined the anti-franco forces. Langston Hughes, who was writing for the Baltimore Afro-American, said: "Give Franco a hood, and he would be a member of the Ku Klux Klan." There was also a George Washington Battlian, and a John Brown battery. Once the U.S. entered World War II, the FBI recommended that none of the veterans of the Spanish war against fascism be given any promotions within the U.S. military, to prevent the “rise of communists” in their ranks. The House UnAmerican Activities Committee (HUAC) blacklisted all American veterans of the Spanish war.

I need a new keyboard!

I moved and couldn't take my keyboard with me that I used to write music & practice every day. I need a new one at my new place, so from now until the end of August, my Bandcamp albums will be $2 as I try to cover some of the cost. Thank you!

The model I'm looking to get is basically the newer version of the one I have used for the past 12-ish years: a Yamaha YDP-145. They range €850-€1200 depending on the store & if it's on sale, so I'm hoping to get one on the lower end of that.

Other ways to help if buying music is not an option would be to share this thread or subscribe to my YouTube channel! I am getting close to monetization and I know it's not going to be a lot at first, but everything helps! Thanks so much!

I am thinking about leaving #soundcloud and moving to something else. Does anyone have recommendations for a #funkwhale instance? There isn’t a de facto default instance like with mastodon, right?

I'm asking because I'm running into multiple variations of this error when I try running `composer update` or `composer require any/package`:

found another/package[0.0.1] in the lock file but not in remote repositories

All the packages that show that error are in the "path" repository and also in the lock file, and I can't figure out how to resolve this error so that I can require additional (external) packages.

When specifying a "path" repository with a wildcard, does Composer do a recursive scan of the subdirectories for packages (i.e., composer.json files)?

I'm asking about when you have configuration like this:

{
"repositories": {
"modules": {
"type": "path",
"url": "modules/*"
}
}
}
