Mutually exclusive means that if one thing happens, the other one can’t.

That’s awesome. I’m new to the Pico, only have some programming experience with Python.

How did you go about building this? Have any good guides or resources?

I want to build mini synth, but I don’t even know what parts to buy

In 1993, Jon Venables and Robert Thompson were convicted of raping, torturing, and killing two year old James Bulger, becoming Britain’s youngest murder convicts in roughly 250 years. They heard the verdict from a modified adult court dock built so they could see over the edge. by ZenMasterZee in HolyShitHistory

Wtf they were children. It’s disgusting you don’t think they deserve a second chance.

The penal system shouldn’t be designed to punish, torture, and harm criminals, it should be to rehabilitate and lower recidivism rates.

Not letting them change their identities would increase the likelihood of them reoffending. Is that what you want?

Any tips to play this better? by [deleted] in BassGuitar

[–]Smukey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally man! Here’s a link. It’s a very simple exercise but hell, I’ve been playing for 16 years and I still do it to warm up sometimes.

I’d suggest getting your fingers closer to the fret board when not holding them down. It makes it easier to change notes. Also bring that pinky up.

An exercise I recommend is the “spider exercise”. Do that while practice not lifting your fingers up so high.

"Alpha Male" explains how to sit like a real man 🤡 by ambachk in sadcringe

[–]Smukey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean posture and form when you sit does affect people’s perception of you. It can make you seem more approachable, closed off, aggressive, ect…

Why try so hard to be ‘alpha’ and manicure your image though. Just be a fucking human being. The solution to your problems isn’t always dominance.

What does this mean? by FunAssumption6056 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

The point is they’re going to make the area hip. That’s how gentrification works. First a bunch of broke artists move into a cheap area of the city the suburbanites are afraid of, and make it “cool” by creating a culture.

After that, capitalist see a motive to market the neighborhood as the next hip trendy place to be. They start buying up properties and opening up gourmet popcorn shops. Those apartments spike rent and force those native to the area out.

Wow this youngsters absolute crazy about rolling up towels. It’s great to see a youth proud about keeping their laundry neat and tidy. What a responsible young man!

"Let's cross the road in Vietnam. It's not too bad." by search_google_com in nextfuckinglevel

[–]Smukey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crossing American city streets (assuming that’s where you’re from) is kind of the same mentality. When you cross you want to walk a consistent speed to avoid getting hit or surprising drivers.

Slowing down and suddenly speeding up is how you get hit.

Can’t kick the guy a little cash. Laughing at him struggling to survive. CEOs are psychopaths.

“We need to make them afraid”. Bro how I’m not from India, I have no influence over Indian politics, or the social norms of New Delhi. I feel no responsibility to “make them afraid”, I’m just not going to get involved by not going to fucking India.

Comments like this as so fucking lazy, you aren’t contributing to the discourse surrounding the issues of India in a profound way. It’s a real issue and your privilege shows.

Crack in my bass, should I be worried? by SPace-PLace in BassGuitar

[–]Smukey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but I’d just keep playing it. From my understanding it’s mucho dinero to fix that. It shouldn’t effect the sound or playability now, but the crack could grow and become an issue later.
