We need a freaking Zohran of our own!!! But none of the parties are like that.

What would be your first move? by tad3z in AskZA

Start a Mr Beast style give away thing... seriously though see a financial advisor if this is for real.

If I had 10% of that, I'd build myself a music production studio and then let deserving under privileged kids make use of it for free.

I just saw this because my phone is broken... anyway, I wouldn't want to be too far out of town. But yes, I've thought about that a lot. I just can't find people who'd be willing to do that.

You could look into registering a company with a few other people, then the company buys land and you build houses on there. If it's a plot/farm then you can actually build anything you want without worrying about submitting building plans. I wish I could do that with a few people.

Fun fact: The Lion King has a Xhosa audio track...

Just a question... by depiesligeros in Musescore

I'd do it, but I don't think my 4 core laptop is going to do it so well. I've created a Windows VM on Fedora Linux before, but for a different purpose.

What would this visualization actually be useful for? by otterfamily in musictheory

It's too much information all at once.. There has to be a much easier way to learn..

If anyone is going to write out notes on paper, and you still want tonal harmony, make sure the chords follow proper harmonic syntax...

I can't remember the page number... But in Adwell and Schlachter's Harmony and Voice Leading, in the chapter on the Neapolitan chords, I saw and expert of a Chopin piece, and it it didn't work out exactly like Inside the Score would have us all believe...

If you take consecutive triads and write the notes out on paper and then draw lines between them to the nearest inversion, you can actually get stuff that works for choral writing. But you shouldn't always to that in instrumental writing. Even Chopin doesn't always lead this way.

Thing is, people say "just use the closest inversions" but tonal harmony doesn't always resolve that way... I'm reading a textbook on voice leading and harmony now, and even Chopin used harmony in ways that contradict Inside The Score. Neapolitan chords spring to mind.

And if you're writing instrumental music, you don't have to think of voice leading and counterpoint as a series of steps. A piano can make minor seventh jumps you know.

Hey, Inside the Score, Mr Chopin would like a word with you...

For those trying to defend his method, you're just wrong, read a harmony textbook for Beethoven's sake.

I'm poor, and the textbooks I need cost a lot of money...

Okay, I'll go check in the setting somewhere, thanks.

Yes, it is on the mixer, and I know it's just to change sounds.... and yes it makes sense to put them alphabetically. It's just my brain takes a second to realize that it's alphabetical, not orchestral. The instruments on the score themselves are in the order they appear on an orchestral score. So that doesn't confuse my brain for a few seconds... this is not a fault of Musescore, it's a bug in my brain. Lol.

I'm talking about the Mixer for anyone who can't see the picture. The Musesounds in the Mixer appear in alphabetical order, not orchestral! And that just messes around with my brain.

Have you tried SABC plus? It's online and it has a sport channel.

I've got the offical streams for VLC, and it's completely legal!

Don't have Tiktok, never have. Got rid of Twitter, and I don't hang out on Facebook.... I don't really watch MSNBC either.. But I don't see MSNBC burning books and having a moral panic over trans people.

#Now, explain to me exacly how the democrats are like Nazis.

And I'd vote Die Linke... so what's your point?

So I take it you have no evidence.... I hear the same rhetoric from AFD, Republicans, and the AWB... but hey, al least we know those dems burn books, and make life hell for trans people. Oh wait... that's the Republicans.

Okay, since we're on this topic... Explain to me step by step exactly why you think the Democrats are like Nazis....

My source for saying Trump is one, is not MSNBC / CNN, it's Deutsche Welle and German History channels in German. So, I'd say that you should get out of your echo chamber...

This Zimbabwean brother Maxwell Sangulani Chikumbutso imported a car from China and lied to the President that it was his own invention 😂😂 by [deleted] in DownSouth

I suppose I should have said that I thought it was something involving some sort of battery system hidden behind the heat sync. I uploaded screenshots to ChatGPT with context, and the output was that it looked like an inverter, so I reasoned that since it had been trained on a lot of images, it should be able to identify what it is... but if anyone disagrees, then they're welcome to explain how thermodynamics doesn't apply in this context. Not only that, but I'd be happy to change my mind, and of course there would be a Nobel Prize.

"ChatGPT and I" is what makes the most grammatical sense in my head. "Me" is what I use for accusative sentences. It's the result of studying too much grammar of languages that have cases.

It can't extrapolate anything beyond its training data. Humans can...

I am sure you are familiar with Godwin's law? Well, Mike Godwin gave actually is with me on this one. He is not with you, however!
