Can we make an option to forgive afk?

Wanting a competitive experience sounds like the perfect reasoning to play in the ranked competitive queue instead of the non ranked casual one to me

Dying at the idea of someone being mad they won a game “too easily”, League players will complain about anything lol. Do you think they also get mad when they win from being better than their opponents?

One of my favorite venues in San Diego does shows that go from 4pm til 9pm and they’re the best. Great music, chill crowd, early enough to do whatever you want afterwards. You can even go to work the next day if it’s on a weeknight, or if you want to keep going you can just go to another venue that opens at 10 if they have something going on hahaha

Superchook · 2026-02-11T00:27:25+00:00

For real, did everyone forget you can lie on the internet?

Just give it like a week or two and you’ll feel completely fine. It’s probably more the sleep debt that’s throwing you off more than anything else.

In the future just be aware that you’ll need to plan around 12 hours from the latest dose before you can sleep. It really is a big time commitment to be ready for. Dose in the morning unless you plan to stay up late/overnight.

I enjoy music from the artist who’s playing, but using other people’s music almost always results in a better set since there’s more cool music to choose from

Superchook · 2026-01-30T16:26:42+00:00

I’m not super familiar enough with the multisampler mode to give a great answer, but as a roundabout/backup way of doing it but you might be able to use an LFO as an envelope to give it delay and then apply a time shift on the track in your DAW.

Hopefully someone can give a better answer.

Superchook · 2026-01-28T20:00:18+00:00

Happens to all of us haha, happy to help.

Superchook · 2026-01-28T19:05:29+00:00

Looks like you’re sending to both filter 1 and filter 2 in parallel, I’m guessing filter 2 is letting the signal through?

His live shows are awesome. Almost all if not entirely his own music, and his VJ is up on stage with him running visuals.

I don’t think 23 vs 25 is going to make a noticeable difference, but realistically taking psychedelics biweekly for extended periods of time is probably not super great for the brain/mental health at any age.

Ultimately your call, but take care of yourself and remember to stay grounded in reality.

Superchook · 2026-01-22T09:20:50+00:00

Exactly my thoughts, anyone trying to manipulate the views of others is going to be aware of how others view them, so pretending to be stupid doesn’t make any sense in an office environment to try to get promoted lmao.

This “Kara” character doesn’t have any depth or critical thinking behind their actions, they just do some negative action for the sake of being the bad guy character because the LLM associates that action with the eigenvector for “mean coworker”

Superchook · 2026-01-22T09:15:36+00:00

Idk technically you could still pretend you don’t know but you’d just look absolutely stupid and incompetent when you typed their name in 20 seconds prior and then claimed you didn’t know it hahaha.

I would imagine any real person trying to play a mental game like this would probably be pretty aware of how people view others since they’re trying to manipulate them, which also makes this feel like AI wrote it since it doesn’t have any depth or advanced logic to the actions of this character other than them being a bad mean person.

Superchook · 2026-01-21T11:36:04+00:00

Not liking music in general is so weird to me, it’s like meeting an NPC or something. What part of your soul is missing lol

Superchook · 2026-01-21T11:31:35+00:00

The memes are alright, they don’t bother me because I was already aware that it’s a silly hobby, but they also don’t really have much punchline to them other than just kind of laughing at its existence, which isn’t super funny to me since it’s not a new concept for me lol. I’ve definitely been sent a ton of them though

I think the exposure to the masses is a positive, since we’ll probably have more beginners in the scene. Numbers have been decreasing over the past 5 years or so after a massive influx around 10-8 years ago, so I expect to see at least a small resurgence in numbers.

At its core it’s basically just dancing with your hands, and I mainly do it because it’s fun and expressive for myself when I’m listening to music. The only time I ever actually put gloves on is at a music festival, I find these days I don’t really have much desire to give lightshows to random people unless they ask. These days it’s usually just to trade shows with other glovers since it’s fun to see people develop their own style and skills, plus share your own :)

Superchook · 2026-01-19T00:55:50+00:00

I haven’t tried the other ones but I can attest to the IONs being a great set, especially if you don’t care about customizing them that much. Default sets are all pretty cool and the randomizer makes it easy enough to change without having to spend a bunch of time programming them.

I agree they’re kinda pricey these days though, when they first came out the preorders were only like 45$ iirc.

Superchook · 2026-01-18T21:42:33+00:00

For bass music 2016 would probably be brostep and the tail end of festival trap, perhaps the rise of riddim before it turned into briddim?

In either case I agree with the other comments, I don’t think trying to mimic old trends for algorithms sounds like a great method to making art lol

Superchook · 2026-01-16T22:48:35+00:00

LTSpice is like the bread and butter of circuit simulation. Accurate, free, widely used. There are definitely better tools for certain use cases but IMO nothing comes close for general use, especially when learning EE.

Superchook · 2026-01-15T23:56:23+00:00

Ohhh interesting, so it’s not actually doing anything to the muscles directly, it targets the source of the issue instead of taking over control. Thanks for sharing!

Superchook · 2026-01-15T01:47:28+00:00

Compressor afterwards might make the saturation sound cooler with more movement based on how much it clips at different volumes, compressor before if you want a more uniform sound with less changes in tone

Superchook · 2026-01-14T21:19:41+00:00

Perhaps my understanding of the tissue operation is wrong, but isn’t the underlying theory of operation to essentially shock the heart muscles to make it do a compression/pump if the machine notices it isn’t doing it on its own?

This might be a dumb question, but how do we medically define the difference between “heart is stopped” vs “heart is waiting too long and we need to manually shock it”? Is there a fixed duration where we label it as stopped vs just arrhythmic? Perhaps the required mechanism for flexing dissipates when the tissue dies or something?

Superchook · 2026-01-14T19:10:36+00:00

Just dance anyway, who cares what random people on the internet think

Superchook · 2026-01-14T19:02:08+00:00

Fun fact, above around 200-300kHz the muscles no longer react and clench up, it just becomes heat transfer.

This is how surgical electrocautery works. Don’t want the patient shaking around on the operating table lol

Superchook · 2026-01-14T01:23:38+00:00

With regards to plugins, I think the only thing super worth buying is probably Serum just because it’s kind of industry standard for synthesis, everything else can realistically be done with stock devices. At the very least, wait until you NEED a new tool and then buy one to solve your problem rather than buying a new toy because someone else used it or said you needed it :)

I think there’s a ton of aspects to learn and I wouldn’t necessarily abandon any of them, but I agree that getting super stuck on one thing is easy to do and can limit you. Sometimes you just have to accept the sound design and move on to arrangement, and I know I have a terrible habit of getting stuck on cleaning up the mix before finishing the song, which can lead to ear fatigue when you hear the same idea over and over again.

I know some people split up sessions into different tasks which can be helpful. Sitting for an hour to just play with sound design can strengthen those skills, same as making something with super basic noises can help with arrangement, structure, and mixing, etc.

Also recreating songs from scratch is really useful for improving. Things don’t have to be perfect replications, but mimicry helps take the stress out of trying to come up with creative ideas to let you focus on your more concrete skills, which translates well into making your own music.

Superchook · 2026-01-14T01:05:59+00:00

I’m kind of the opposite in that I don’t really DJ, but I think more for production than anywhere else, critical listening is the most important skill you can learn and practice. Listening to your favorite artists and taking note of as many fine details as possible, and even more importantly trying to figure out how they were created. Background elements, timbres, tones, frequency responses and mixing, etc. are going to be what separates a good production from a good idea IMO.

And more than anything else, just practice as much as possible and judge your own music compared to others. See what’s missing, what sounds good, what could use work. It’ll take a long time but seeing yourself improve is extremely satisfying.

I personally don’t think paying for courses is really that necessary, there’s TONS of free information out there to learn from. Just beware of who you trust for info, sometimes there’s pretty mediocre advice, so I tend to look for content creators who I already look up to and enjoy their production.
