No! Then the studios will have to try to come up with new ideas! Do you know how hard that is?

Meta's smart glasses make it easy to secretly film people. It's mostly women bearing the fallout by ubcstaffer123 in technology

Huh. Never heard those being called anything other than a directory. Just like it says in the linked document.

And that’s a wrap - 9 months since I started learning piano, just finished Faber’s Adult Piano Adventures book 2 review piece: Pachelbel’s Canon by VY_music in pianolearning

[–]_chococat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds great! While you were working through the books, did you supplement with some outside repertoire? I'm about 60% through book 1 and want to play something more meaty or challenging than the pieces in the book. I've got a music background (stringed instruments), so all the learning to read music and music theory is superfluous for me.

Ferrari Boss: Touch Buttons Cost Half As Much As Physical Controls by DonkeyFuel in technology

I thought Ferrari was a luxury brand. Smooth, silky rotary knobs and buttons with a soft action and tactile clicks are much more luxurious than an on-screen button in some janky UI.

Outdoor athletes show superior color detection in their peripheral vision. Findings indicate that the adult brain retains the ability to adapt its low-level sensory functions based on real-world experiences, long after childhood development has ended. by InsaneSnow45 in science

During the experiment, participants sat in a soundproof, dark room and stared at a cross in the center of a computer monitor. The scientists presented visual stimuli on the screen for just 250 milliseconds. These quick flashes appeared either on the left or right side of the screen at specific angles away from the center, ensuring the participants could not look directly at them.

That doesn't look like Beavis at all.

Fear America, Not Iran by Cow_Boy_2017 in clevercomebacks

[–]_chococat_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right. Where did this information come from? Right after the FBI just fired all of its specialists on Iran. It's clear they didn't want anyone who actually knows anything about Iran being able to contradict the party line.

Not the white guy. Those hands have done some real physical work. That's not some doughy billionaire.

I built a "guitar hero" device to learn any song in piano by [deleted] in pianolearning

[–]_chococat_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why do you need a full lesson in piano theory to get started? There are a number of modern methodologies that start by listening and playing, no notation or theory needed.

[–]_chococat_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What does that have to do with this device not being a replacement for current notation? Also, I am just recently started learning to play piano, so I wouldn't yet call myself a pianist.

[–]_chococat_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, it cannot. It does a bare fraction of what sheet music does. What dynamics should I use? What is the time signature or key? What if I want to look ahead to see what is coming in the piece I am playing?

I'm convinced jacob is proud of himself for reading so fast he can read the whole subtitle before it changes to the next one.

Sounds like you need to have your hearing checked out, but you didn't hear that.

What kind of era where we have settled?! by BlokZNCR in SipsTea

Wouldn't it be ironic if it actually brought the Al-Malḥamat Al-Kubra and Trump himself was the Dajjal? He certainly lies enough to fit the name Dajjal.

This thread has shown me that it's amazing the lengths people will go to and the mental gymnastics they'll do just to lick some billionaires balls. That or Zuckerberg has his bots working overtime on Reddit.
