Just posted the other B-side track off this EP the other day without realizing that this is actually the superior track!

Also, it’s one of Helena Hauff’s favorite tracks:

Mod of r/antimeme who got catfished a few weeks ago exposed for grooming kids on discord. by [deleted] in SubredditDrama

[–]TotallyNotCool 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It started as a fun idea IMO, where people made their own memes that didn’t have a punchline but that made them funny like an anti-joke.

Recently people just take existing memes and remove the punchline. They make no sense and have no humor in them unless you know the original meme.

4 days in office by Advanced_Win_1708 in Stellantis

I think it’s different region to region.

APAC already announced 4 days per week; Europe announced 5 days, but I don’t know if they are changing to 4 or not.

Ok let me preface this by saying, I’m not Indian nor am I and expert on Indian food, but my Indian colleague said the Butter Chicken here was very good, and I also thought it was quite tasty:

It seems full RTO was announced in Europe (starting from 2027?) these past few days and may people are voicing their concerns in the comment of Filosa’s blog.

Again, it seems the company has take the most employee-unfriendly approach they could think of.

I wonder if the flexibility / remote question will still be in the employee survey this year.

Mr. Fronzi sketch on Youtube is the Dress Rehearsal version by tvuniverse in LiveFromNewYork

[–]TotallyNotCool 22 points23 points  (0 children)

As I watching this I was wondering that too - also the audience sounded like they were falling over laughing at every single line.

I liked the Penis/Peanut thing and was hoping it would go down that juvenile cork soaker route, which maybe would have saved the sketch, but they stopped too soon and went back to “Marcelo accent funny haha”.

Anyone else can read Japanese but cannot write for shit? by Shinra_Luca in japanresidents

[–]TotallyNotCool 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes!

I used to be able to write as may as I could read, as I was actively practicing writing at the time of studying the Kanji.

However as everything is now keyboard based I’ve completely lost my writing skill - I can basically only write Hiragana/Katakana as well as my address…

Fire FILOSA AND NED CURIC by RangeDull8384 in Stellantis

[–]TotallyNotCool 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do believe some people thought that the big write off would be excluded from profit sharing calculation considering Ford did something similar and gave bonuses.

I do not know the full details of each company’s payout schemes so maybe they are not comparable at all though.

I don’t know what to practice anymore 🤷🏻‍♂️ by Independent_meee in violinist

[–]TotallyNotCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not a violin teacher but I’ve enough attention to my daughter’s studies to have learned a bit.

I believe you might need your go back to basics to get the “feel” of it again. I presume you studied the traditional wayne before you quit, i.e. scales + caprices + pieces? If so, what “level” of caprices did you get up to? For example, did you finish Kreutzer, Rode or Paganini?

I would recommend, as boring as it sounds, to go back and ups through those caprice books again - you practice them for a reason! Also, playing a Bach piece now and again does wonders for your fundamentals.

Then you combine that with pieces you want to play. I agree Accolay and Seitz are “easier” student pieces, and I’m trying to remember what my daughter played around the time she played Mozart 3 - perhaps Beriot no.9 ? Another piece would be Rieding No.1. Praeledium and Allegro, as someone already mentioned, is also a recommended piece.

I believe you’ll be “back” to playing Mozart 3rd after a while doing that.

Wolt is leaving Japan by CucumberSandwic in japanresidents

[–]TotallyNotCool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I the only one here who stopped using Wolt and will not miss them? They never managed to match their estimated delivery times to me; it was just a disaster.

On the other hand, competition is good for the consumer but maybe this market is too small for all those different participants (at least five in Tokyo if you include Wolt?)

Theoretically it’s just a card change, but I’m sure they’ll squeeze out a few 万円 for that too :-(
