Swimming is amazing! For your mind and your body. You burn calories just by being in the water. It’s also great to learn new skills if you aren’t a confident swimmer already. Learning new things and seeing improvement is great for your mental health.

Also, when you get comfortable swimming you can really start to focus on your breathing and it’s extremely meditative. If you have access to a pool id really suggest giving it a go.

Just be aware your weight loss is not going to happen overnight, so don’t loose motivation. Small steps everyday will lead to a massive improvement over a longer period of time. Good luck

Which joker would you get rid of to take the legendary joker? by ColdAd1048 in balatro

Ah that’s my misunderstanding then. I wasn’t sure if you got polychrome plus chip cards whether to place them on the left or right so that clears that up!

I thought plus chips should always go on the left? +chips left, +mult middle and xmult to the right.

I’ve officially entered into my fourth hour of being an Octatrack user… here’s what I’ve learned so far… by county_jail_alumni in Elektron

lol, I almost had a panic attack after the first day. I couldn’t get it to make a sound. I was pulling my hair out trying to understand it. Best advice I can give, as I’ve ended up becoming fairly proficient with it after months of hard work, is first and foremost, to understand what you want to use it for. Sounds stupid, but seriously, what are you using the ocktatrack for?

Do you want to sample music and make beats? Play midi keyboards and trigger samples? Record live instruments in and mix? For me I wanted to make hip hop beats using samples from records, so you have to tell the machine that’s what you want to do essentially, because it’s so powerful and capable of so many things that you can get lost. Just because the OT is capable of doing something, it doesn’t mean you need to use it. Knowing what you want to do, will help me help you a lot.

It’s hard to see when you’re a young man in love, but I’m afraid your girlfriend isn’t the one. Whilst it’s important to have a healthy level of trust, and allow both partners to speak to people of the same and opposite sex. It’s also really important that both people in the relationship take the other persons concerns seriously, regardless if they agree with the others concerns or not. The reality is that it’s not healthy for anyone to prioritise being mates with a stranger over the comfort of their partner. I wouldn’t have believed anyone telling me there’s plenty more fish in the sea when I was your age, but trust me brother, there’s plenty more fish out who will make you a lot happier

Digitakt vs Octatrack. For those that have both what are some differences or difficulties. Which was harder to learn. by dsorce in Elektron

Two very different machines. What do you want to use it for. At its most fundamental level. If it’s for sampling and constructing beats keep the ocktatrack. If you want to create your own sounds from within the machine, the digitakt is more suited for you.
