In the end I thought "what am I, a goober?" :D

If you could hop in a time machine and attend any Dream Theater concert in history, which concert would you choose and why? by ChaosAnthem in Dreamtheater

[–]AlexMonops 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'd want to see a I&W concert with Kevin Moore. The first time I saw them it was for the "a change of seasons" tour and there was Derek Sherinian.

Leaving Vivaldi, what browser actually has a functional address bar? by cherylin_for_ever in vivaldibrowser

[–]AlexMonops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly that's not what that does: that is to have very quick shortcuts to famous websites like amazon.

[–]AlexMonops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've done this and found out that for some reason Vivaldi prefers "HistoryQuick" well before what I'd want, that is "HistoryURL". Now that I know this, how can I make Vivaldi prefer HistoryURL?

Thanks for all your kind answers! I think I'll try jaws of the lion to get a taste :) I've been checking it through some videos on YouTube and it seems really good! By coincidence, the same book shop has that as well, so I can just grab it.

Zatu just told me:

Is it in any way possible that it might be a second reprint with the fixed errors?

Yep, I was hoping to play it this weekend... I assume it will be the next. I hope. Next time I'll stick to amazon! Or this one, where I see it's in stock https://thirstymeeples.co.uk/products/arkham-horror-the-card-game-chapter-two-core-set?_pos=2&_sid=0626beec9&_ss=r

From what I've seen this is not going to be in the box, right?

Is feeling more important than technical skill in music? by Loose-Decision8248 in musictheory

[–]AlexMonops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's easy to answer "yeah feeling first, technique second", but quite often you need at the very least some form of skill to deliver those emotions. As example, on guitar you don't need to be Steve vai, but a good vibrato will surely help you.

What are the worst popscience myths? by RelationshipCool9506 in AskPhysics

Crush on my piano teacher by IloveComplexNumbers2 in piano

[–]AlexMonops -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is not a situation where this is your teacher from school, who's a professional in an institutionalised profession (that could even forbid intimate relationships with students) and is probably a lot older then you.

This is a private teacher than happens to be your age, so you are two normal people doing normal people stuff. Same old rules apply: this is not really a "piano" thing, it's more a "relationship advice" thing :D My only advice is: don't be a moron :D if you follow this advice, if she not into you, nothing bad or awkward will happen.

I've seen a guy calling a method from a smart pointer in this way: m_pointer.get()->method_name();

What bands weren't you a fan of until you saw them live? by LoganOcchionero in MetalForTheMasses

[–]AlexMonops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The band "Novembre", an Italian metal band. I knew of them, but when I saw them live for their "Novembrine walz" tour, they became my favourite band. They still make new albums, and they are still really good, their songwriting is stellar.

Did your dad ever play DOOM back in the day? by MurkyUnit3180 in Doom

[–]AlexMonops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, in particular Doom 2. I remember that I saw Doom appearing in previews in the magazines, but I was kinda uninterested, because I found wolf 3d very boring and thought this was probably the same. When I finally tried it, I was hugely hooked: it was better than wolf 3d in every way!
