Remember how I said I was going to write up how I fixed the Akumajo Dracula MIDIs for old MT-32? Well, as I was writing up the technical details I discovered I was *completely wrong* and none of this worked the way I thought it had. Join me for a weird and surprising MIDI deep dive. https://www.mistys-internet.website/blog/blog/2026/08/25/how-i-fixed-an-mt-32-midi-soundtrack-for-the-hardware-i-use/

@misty I joined and I now know about "Bubblegum Octopus" and MT-32 MIDIs. Thank you for your time.
@vramvoolenaar Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoyed the music.
@misty very serious question: how are you running octopress in 2026 still? The last time I tried to get it working I got stuck in a hellscape of ruby dependencies that don't work. So https://warewolf.github.io/ continues to be a site that is largely dead :(
@xabean It requires Ruby pre-3.0; I'm running it on 2.7.3. With that Ruby version, it works just fine with its specified set of dependencies.
I am planning on tackling a jekyll upgrade at some point though.
