Maybe they accept payment in turkeys and hams, off they've already been bought?koalaboy wrote: Tue Dec 02, 2025 9:55 am I'm already broke, gosh darn it. Ah well... who needs food over Christmas, right ?
I started on Logic 5 with a PowerBook G4 550Mhz. I now have a MacBook Air M1 and it's ~165x faster! So, why is my music not proportionally better?

I am doing hobby farming and own 5 chickens. That's why I would accept a chicken as a payment under these condtitions:
- Chicken must be alive and healty.
- Chicken must be older than 6 weeks and not be older than 1,5 years.
- Chicken must be female. You can't pay with your cock.

Are there any 3rd party skins out there for this?

There used to be a Tone2 skin with one of the sound sets, but I don’t think it works anymore since the layout may have changed a bit, etc. I still have it from many years ago, but haven’t tried it with the latest version.
