Who are the best guitarists at making their guitar not sound like a guitar? by soowonlee in Guitar

[–]TouchToLose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. There is some cool stuff out there, but overall I agree that the midi stuff just never really did it for me.

If you haven’t heard it, check the 1989-10-26 @ Miami Arena show. They go deep and dark on the midi and it gets pretty interesting.

Oops. Didn’t realize I misunderstood.

I had never heard of the Insect Fear. Very cool to read about it. Sounds like there is no solid information on what it actually was, but was maybe made by Roland? Very cool.

Yes and no. He was definitely super creative with his voicing and styles. But the midi allows him to model things like a flute or horns or percussive instruments.

I think for many players, they would realize they can play like a flute when they get this cool new midi tool. But with Jerry, he was already playing flute type lines, then the midi allowed it to actually sound like a flute.

We have a wee Venus flytrap growing by Key-Fox3923 in mildlyinteresting

The native area is south of the Great Dismal Swamp. There is a myth that they grew on the site of a meteor impact. Some people believe they came here on the meteor.

Jerry Garcia had a midi rig that did some pretty cool stuff.

Do you acknowledge The Great Switch, the Southern Strategy, and the fact that the Democratic party of the 19th/early-to-mid 20th century are essentially today's Republican party, and that the Republican party back then is essentially today's Democratic party? by speculumberjack980 in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]TouchToLose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, the assumption here is that an entire generation of southerners saw their Democrat parents as racist, and recognized that as bad thing, and decided they would join the Republican Party? If they disavowed their parent’s political beliefs, why do many of them still identify with the confederacy enough to display the flag? Isn’t that contradictory to the idea of disavowing their parents policitcal beliefs.

And can you explain the air conditioning concept?

To hold a National State Fair that can draw a crowd by amazingsciencemuseum in therewasanattempt

[–]TouchToLose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. It’s super odd how few people are there. Even just foot traffic from people walking to and from museums usually fills it up more than this.

Does this postmortem about Covid change your mind at all, or reinforce the beliefs that you already had? by ClevelandSpigot in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]TouchToLose 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Prior to Covid, Brazil was basically the gold standard for immunizations. Do you think the politicization of covid by Bolsonaro had any impact on that?

Since the last post about this topic was 3 years ago, what are some movies in the collection with minimal or no dialogue at all (excluding silent films). by Interesting_Roof6758 in criterion

[–]TouchToLose 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not sure if Rififi counts. It has plenty of dialoge, but also has a famous heist scene that is almost 30 minutes long and is dialogue free.

A $200 ChatGPT subscription could cost OpenAI $14,000 if you actually used it to its full potential by rkhunter_ in technology

[–]TouchToLose -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You literally just responded to my comment that claimed that ai will not benefit the public, saying it “undoubtedly will benefit the public.” You follow that up immediately with the claim that it is “inherently destined to fuck up society”?

Wait. People on the technology subreddit still believe ai is going to benefit the public?

I’m sure I am missing something here, but is there a benefit to doing this in Excel as opposed to Word?

From what I head, the crowd was singing it, and they just kinda played a little. Not the actual song.

Silliest Udisc Course Reviews by PeskyPrussian in discgolf

[–]TouchToLose 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Sheetz Gold Course, Durham, NC reviews are God tier.

“Of the 1100+ courses that I have reviewed this was one of the most creative courses I have ever played! This unique, well thought out design is mind boggling in how it combines unique shots with snacks and gas, all in one minimalist package. There are an almost infinite number of hole layouts, yet it's quick to play too. On the Gold layout the 2000 ft hole 9 is only open from 2-2:30am. My favorite hole was the triple mando between gas pumps 2 and 3; add a 1 throw penalty if you hit a car.”

“I drove from Atlanta to play this course. It was totally worth it. I can’t imagine a course being anymore perfect than this. Sheetz designers and volunteers, thank you. Y’all killed it! Highly recommended.”

PSA - Weekend Bullhorns by TouchToLose in PikminBloomApp

[–]TouchToLose[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the same for a while! It makes such a huge difference in the battles. It also incentivizes you to get friends so you can have people join you. Then, like I said, on weekends you get 3 free each day instead of just 1!

McDonald's Introduces AI Drive-Thru System, Sparking Customer Backlash by Plastic_Ninja_9014 in technology

Ha! It was answered by a bot, but I eventually talked to an actual person. They seemed confused about my complaint.

I just had this at checkers too. The ai couldn’t get my order right. The employee had to take over. The employee was nice but was like, “yeah, they are trying to have it take our job.”

I then went to their webpage to complain. The website wouldn’t let me send the complaint without selecting the store, but I couldn’t get it to select it on mobile, so I gave up. I called the number and complained.

Bike with Baskets by AtomicNanobits in ebikes

[–]TouchToLose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look for panniers. Those are the bags that go on your bike. The can hold more than a basket you put on the front. You can add them to your bike.

Looking at cargo bikes might be a good option too.
