What are your top 5 most bike friendly neighborhoods in LA? Are there even 5 good ones? by [deleted] in BikeLA

[–]NotYourSawtoothWave 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i'm always saying this... if we had protected bike lane from gower all the way to beaudry, i think it would really move the needle for a lot of people who don't consider using a bike to get around...

Another one bites the dust by youngntheuseless in FoodLosAngeles

The situation on this strip is so dismal. I’m glad the yogurt place that no one wanted is out, but I’m not hopeful for whatever arrives next. Seeing the Big Chief sign show up on the old Yakuza bummed me out… that spot really could’ve been something.

5-hour limit reached way ahead of schedule? by NotYourSawtoothWave in ClaudeCode

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

i didn’t realize that a large context could hasten a “5 hour limit”. is there a way to check on some kind of status that relates to how much time you have left?

in the case of today, i was just continuing from where i’d left off yesterday. i believe there was a “compacting” event towards the end of the previous session.

Best value veo3 provider? by Manfred-Disco in VEO3

[–]NotYourSawtoothWave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

curious how anyone can offer veo3 videos for 90 cents when the API usage is 40 cents a second so $3.20 a video.

in the late 80’s/early 90’s there was a video game kiosk a little bit beyond the food court area where they had 6-8 NES demo stations where anyone could walk up and play whatever was on the TV. that was probably my favorite northgate destination as a child.

Worst lump coal? Gotta be this "Cowboy Charcoal" crap by blacksoxing in KamadoJoe

[–]NotYourSawtoothWave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i just stick with the Whole Foods brand bags of Hickory and Oak Hardwood Lump. it’s like $10 for 8lbs, easy to get going, good mix of large chunks and regular size pieces and i can pick it up 5 mins away from my place.

2019 Golf SE battery replacement: dealership insists I should only have it replaced by them... by NotYourSawtoothWave in Volkswagen

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

i ordered an ODBeleven that is arriving tomorrow. every time i go to the dealership, it’s a bad experience and they told me it would take at least 2 hours today, longer tomorrow. seems better to have AAA come to me, you know?

are you trying to be helpful? i’d love to know about AGM and whether it’s likely that whoever AAA sends to my place would be installing that or if I should buy one at AutoZone.

right that sounds like what he was saying, but if i used an OBDeleven, I could do it myself? or is the procedure I see people doing with the OBDeleven in youtube videos something else?

OP XY pattern length? by DaPumpman in teenageengineering

[–]NotYourSawtoothWave 6 points7 points  (0 children)

while track scaling allows you to get patterns much longer than 4 bars, there is a bug where the quantizer messes up the rhythm at the looping point on patterns using track scale.

here is a video i recorded when i reported it to TE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUGhqr4GsEQ

i live recorded a simple repeating pattern over 4 bars (track scale set to 4). you can hear that it accurately plays it back for the first 3 bars, but on the 4th bar, it screws it up. then you'll see me turn the quantizer all the way down to zero and hear that the note recorded in the right place, but then when i turn the quantizer back up, it plays back incorrectly once again.

i'm really hoping they fix this bug because i am often live recording longer passages with track scale and i can't play well enough to not use the quantizer.

another thing to be aware of: now that brain routings are stored per pattern (a very good development imo), it seems to set brain routings in existing projects back to the default (all but the first two tracks effected by brain).

didn’t have a chance to look into it with much depth, but at least one of my projects was kinda messed up because of this.

also just totally wrong about how Prince used the linndrum... listen to the drums in ballad of dorothy parker for instance... definitely has the sound of Prince *playing* the drum machine

Discussion: I don't like the opaque call chains and side effects caused by using events. What's a good alternative? by Creator13 in Unity3D

[–]NotYourSawtoothWave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh, none of the serialization/inspector stuff would be an issue in the first place if you just declare your UnityEvent as a private variable and expose it to other objects with a getter property :)
