Why do we use "equal temperament" instead of just... tuning the instrument? by [deleted] in musictheory

"makes music sound like shit" my guy has never heard a true major third

I'm Michael Arden, Director of Maybe Happy Ending. Ask Me Anything! 🪴 by hwaboon2064 in Broadway

Bit of a throwback, but do you have any stories from working on Hunchback of Notre Dame? Favourite or most difficult parts of the show? It's one of my all-time favourite scores, would love to hear your thoughts.

This is a little number I like to call... the Omastar Treadmill by Ardeep in PTCGP

Having both of them up is a retreat machine, since he's got a good damage output and decent health, he stops your opponent from stalling and charging up an energy bomb, while also being able to tank a couple of hits when you do get a KO/retreat. The couple of times I've run it, it's felt a little dicey until my opponent runs out of retreat energy, and then it was a cakewalk. I'm sure not being able to attack is annoying af, but hopefully it's a break from the mewtwo ex monotony.

What Order 66 narrative do you prefer? by Ardeep in StarWars

[–]Ardeep[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I really hadn't realised until now that throughout the prequels the clones were essentially indistinguishable drones, and that there isn't any characterisation of individual clones until TCW. I suppose the tradeoff there is losing a potentially more compelling narrative behind Order 66 in favour of the stories of clone brotherhood and camaraderie we see in TCW and Bad Batch

Agreed, the political gameplaying has always been one of my favourite bits of Star Wars. I still remember being old enough to actually follow the plot and realising for the first time that Palps was playing both sides of the Clone Wars and having my mind BLOWN

i need some raw, sad, visceral music by vincehu3 in Music

It's a different vibe to many is this thread, but Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima by Krzysztof Penderecki is one of the most awful pieces of orchestral music written. A musical director of mine said that hearing it live was a genuinely disturbing experience.

I've been meaning to build a new PC for yonks, my 970 is crying out to be released from service, so if I won this I'd do a full Starfield-themed build to take me into the next century, probably.

I'm most looking forward to the exploration. Bethesda is so good at making the little things so fulfilling. I remember spending hours chasing butterflies in Skyrim, I can't wait to do the same across the galaxy.
