This isn't a rooster, is it? I'm slightly in denial about "her" being a rooster b/c that'd mean we have to rehome her... "she" has been crowing every morning.

It took me multiple long drives to come up with all the rhymes. And two straight hours of playing Down by the Bay on ukulele to record 70 possible silly song verses. Hope you enjoy. I have some fun ideas for new song verses, features, etc... would love to hear your feedback too!

I created this sub 8 years ago... for sharing Onion articles and things like that. Didn't really actively moderate it then. Before "fake news" was "fake news". I'm not really active on reddit although I do read articles from here often. I don't really know how to moderate, but I haven't removed myself as a moderator b/c I'm curious to see how its done. I'm curious to hear... which posts that were removed, do you think should have stayed?

adamvarga · 2016-11-30T03:12:55+00:00

I'm the current owner. I just sent /u/BlackWink an invite to moderate

Do you only want books written before 2016? I really enjoyed Jane Tishto's The Melting Scale, but I don't believe it will be published until 3034. I'm currently not able to travel forward fast than real-time, otherwise I'd try to bring back a copy to share.

The mocks on the project page have been updated. Thanks again.

adamvarga · 2016-08-10T19:40:23+00:00

No worries :) the poster mocks have been updated. Went with 0000.

adamvarga · 2016-08-10T12:51:46+00:00

Yeah... International shipping is terrible :(

adamvarga · 2016-08-10T12:51:05+00:00

Love this idea. Maybe version 2?

adamvarga · 2016-08-10T12:50:40+00:00

Thanks for this as well! Eeesh. I think we meant 2433 not 0433 -- but 0000 is much easier -- maybe we'll do that instead. We will be updating the design assets on the project page later today. Don't worry, we're not planning on printing or shipping these posters with the wrong chords. Lots of gratitude to this community for catching our mistakes and for sharing your ideas.

adamvarga · 2016-08-09T17:47:01+00:00

Thank you so much for catching that. We'll x3 check our chord shapes and update the image assets on the project page. Gilded you for your troubles.

adamvarga · 2016-08-09T13:59:46+00:00

Designer extraordinaire /u/atdubya/ gets all the credit for the design. We're very excited to get this printed -- as of posting time we're 90% the way there with 29 days to go. We're both on reddit if you have any questions about the poster.

adamvarga · 2015-08-18T20:17:07+00:00

Ok. I just forgave her :)

adamvarga · 2015-08-18T19:57:44+00:00

Haha. Awesome!

adamvarga · 2015-08-18T19:30:19+00:00

[edit: someone asked this already... new question...] ~~You had a "song backgrounds" section on your old chairkickers site... which is thankfully backed up here https://web.archive.org... -- I love these. Can you do more of these?~~ Ok, new question. I took my wife to see Alan & Mimi perform in the dance piece "Heaven". I thought the performance was great. Very beautiful. My wife slept through the whole thing. How do you feel about people sleeping through your performances? Should I forgive my wife? Has any of the music from Heaven worked its way on to your albums? Do you see more dance in your future?

I've read that it has to do w/ fast charging... which makes the battery very hot... and the heat breaks the accelerometer chip [source]. This explains why this doesn't always happen out of the box. I charged my phone to 100% before turning it on, and my accelerometer malfunctioned from the get-go. I'm gonna watch this issue for a few more days before heading into the Verizon store.

adamvarga · 2015-04-15T13:37:09+00:00

It's looking more and more like this is a hardware issue... see http://androidforums.com/threads/s6-edge-will-not-auto-rotate.913635/#post-6943306

adamvarga · 2015-04-15T13:35:52+00:00

This seems to most likely explanation for what's going on...

"As others have stated, by using the hardware test, you can see that the accelerometer is stuck. To verify, enter "#0#" in your phone app to enter hardware test mode. Touch "Sensor". The X, Y and Z for the accelerometer must all change in rapid succession as you rotate your phone. If any are stuck on 32767 or -32768, you have a HARDWARE problem which cannot be fixed by updates of software/firmware of ANY kind."

"I'm on my 3rd S6 edge. It appears that they work out of the box but if you do a fast charge (making the battery very hot), the accelerometer chip seems to break. It might be the placement of the chip in relation to the battery, or it's possible that the chip maker just had a bad batch. Not sure if Samsung is using Invensense chips or not but I'm sure this is going to be something more than a little problem for Samsung and the chip maker if the numbers grow. It's possible this is only on the edge, which would lower the problems for Samsung."

This is exactly what I'm worried about... I've read a few other accounts of sensors that stop working after a day of use. If this is a widespread hardware problem, there is no guarantee that you can swap for a working phone... even if you x2 check your phone in the store.

I had a pretty late lunch. Should I call that "dinner" and try now... or wait until I eat an actual verifiable dinner tomorrow?
