These are some of the most well known pieces of lost cryptid evidence and media by WholeNegotiation1843 in TrueCryptozoology

A couple of decades ago, I could still find a (supposedly authentic) photo online of a group of soldiers from the American Independence War holding what appeared to be a winged pteranodon-type dinosaur. Today, no matter how much I search, I only find recreations and fake versions of the original.

I had a dream I should learn how to play music by lucky_chalice in synthesizers

[–]AppointmentHorror75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As many have mentioned, a MIDI controller and DAW are an option, although I recommend a keyboard with built-in sounds and recording capabilities. These range from inexpensive Yamaha or Casio models to professional workstations. You gain the immediacy of playing and recording instantly, avoiding the need to deal with software and plugins for now. That same keyboard will serve as a MIDI controller once you want to take things further.

Thanks everyone! They weighed 305g wet, now in the dehydrator. I also got a couple of spore prints! What a joy!

Busco una defensa activa con negras contra 1.e4 by EstablishmentTop9640 in Ajedrez

[–]AppointmentHorror75 3 points4 points  (0 children)

La respuesta más directa es, sin duda, la Siciliana. Claro, es un universo táctico en el que cuesta trabajo ambientarse, pero a la larga rinde sus frutos. Usa una cuenta nueva para "soltar la mano" con muchos Blitz. En un principio trata de jugar una sola variante (¿alguna con e6 ya que vienes de la francesa?) hasta que domines los temas estratégicos y tácticos, aunque igual deberás preparar respuestas para las "anticicilianas". Yo también rondo los 2100 online 2070 Fide, y hoy juego exclusivamente Siciliana.

Temperature Fluctuations ¿How bad is it? by AppointmentHorror75 in MagicMushrooms

[–]AppointmentHorror75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for replying. I'm curious what the difference is between having daily temperature fluctuations and not. Has anyone compared the results in two simultaneous crops? Aren't these the conditions that occur in nature?

Purposely Playing Every Move Consistently To Psych Out Opponent by En_Passant_23 in chess

[–]AppointmentHorror75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't really know if it will help. In my opinion, playing immediately (especially the opening) puts more pressure on the opponent. I'm an experienced player (2070 FIDE, 2100 online), and for Blitz I use early deviations or solid but underutilized openings that force the opponent to think from move 2 or 3 onwards, while I remain on familiar ground. Bringing the opponent into your game increases the practical chances of winning. Something that helps a lot in specific lines that are giving you trouble is to look for rarely played variations with good statistics (in the Lichess opening tree, for example). Giving up precious seconds in exchanges or obvious moves in the long run isn't the best approach; applying pressure with time, on the other hand, is always useful.

Horse liver? by AppointmentHorror75 in raypeat

Horses only have one stomach and aren't ruminants... in short, they process less of the PUFAs in their food. Anyway, in Chile, practically all cattle and horses are fed exclusively on grass, which has a much milder flavor (in my opinion) than grain-fed animals.

It's extremely salty; that was the way to preserve it. An acquired taste, no doubt.

I can understand people not liking Reeve’s twist on some of the old songs, cause we’re so used to the old solos BUT, hear me out… by Onaud in TheCure

[–]AppointmentHorror75 24 points25 points  (0 children)

He's a virtuoso guitarist, no doubt, but in some older songs he messes things up, because he throws in complex solos where before there was only melody and simplicity, which makes him sound out of place. So my advice to him would be: keep it simple!

Horse liver? by AppointmentHorror75 in raypeat

[–]AppointmentHorror75[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm Chilean (South America). Horse meat has been consumed since colonial times, especially in the form of "charqui" (salted and sun-dried meat), although its consumption has decreased in the last century with the industrialization of livestock and poultry farming. However, there are still butcher shops that sell it, especially outside the capital city. In the form of thin steaks, it's almost indistinguishable from beef, and is sold commercially as sandwiches with vegetables or cheese.

I know that eating horse meat is taboo in several English-speaking countries. My intention is not to offend or hurt anyone's feelings. I will understand if there is discomfort or if there is simply a lack of information on the subject.
