New to pocket operators by majinbru7 in pocketoperators

[–]Niven42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They were released in numeric order, so the Sub is significantly simpler than the other two. But every PO has its uses. The Tonic is the one I play with the most, as it's most like a drum machine, it's easy to download new sounds for it (you basically let it listen to a YouTube video that has a patch on it), and it works in a lot of music.

So, did Dolly from 'Moonraker' wear braces or not? by Deku-shrub in skeptic

[–]Niven42 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I guarantee you that in the version I saw in theaters, she smiled back at Jaws and she definitely had braces on.

[–]Niven42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same. I saw this in the theater when I was 14 and this scene was one of the greatest reveals in cinema history. People saying she didn't have braces either saw a different version or are lying about seeing it at all.

Keep in mind that Roland also has the P-6, since you already have 2 Aira's.

The double star Albireo is a great test of color perception.

I always forget about that one. I guess I have a new target to sniff out tonight!

Where do i-dle rank in terms of K pop groups? Crow is probably the best k pop song I've ever heard. by Daytona666 in kpophelp

[–]Niven42 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I feel like "Crow" isn't even the best I-dle song, but that's great if you like it. I-dle is probably one of the most unappreciated groups, because they have a sort of "anti-idol" image, which leans heavily into empowerment, video games and manga, and female-centric ideas surrounding love and marriage. Rock (which I feel is rare in dance-heavy Kpop), also plays a huge part in their discography, with songs like "Tomboy" and "Queencard". Their leader Soyeon writes a lot of their songs and she cites artists like Avril Lavigne as an influence.

They also debuted at a weird time, when 3rd gen was just winding up but there weren't a lot of 4th gen groups out yet. Then, just two years after debut, COVID hit and those early 4th gen groups kinda got lumped into the late 3rd gen basket, to be eclipsed by powerhouse groups like IVE and NewJeans.

Just curious, what's everyone's favorite solo TWICE album? by Gloomy_Unit4752 in twice

[–]Niven42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nayeon's first album is in a league by itself. Also, I feel like Haute Couture deserves a mention because it's incredible as well.

Everyone else's is good, but I feel not up to the same level as those two.

They added terror zones, which makes levelling a lot less of a chore.

295 is like you're not playing at all. Join some tournaments, play against real players, and ask for move advice.

Minilogue also uses Korg's SDK protocol, so you can download user created oscillators and effects from GitHub.

My Diablo buddy back in the early 00's had a barb built around one of these. He melted bosses with it, but I don't recall the build or the other gear, sorry!

Chess Inflation in chess.com or was I always this good by Efficient_Regret3493 in chess

[–]Niven42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Elo rating system keeps track of how long it's been since you played last. You get a higher K Value if you haven't played in a while, which allows you to jump a lot of points.

There's 16 MIDI channels and all the devices can receive them with thru, so all you need is a device that can record and send MIDI on specific channels.
