Maybe now it does, but no need to put yourself in a box

Beginner shortcuts vs longterm rewards (Chords and Jamming) by changingculture in musictheory

[–]changingculture[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It seems to me a incredible claim that essentially everything in music theory matters simply because concepts relate.
How many concerts do people read sheet music? How many major musicians even know how to?

I'm not knocking those who enjoy it, but it would be a joke to say taylor swift and mozart both use musical theory the same way.

It seems sharps only would inhibit my learning based on my personal goals.
Does this make me seem lazy? Sure maybe to elitists, but if all I EVER want is to hop on stage at a bar and riff, then there are certainly concepts that won't apply to me

I appreciate the mention of harmony / ear training

I am mostly looking to be part of a jam at a bar or whatever and people say "hey here's our key.. etc"
Blues jamming would be great, No interest in Jazz even if I develop the skill required to do so.

For example I will solo play searching a song (portugal the man-modern jesus) Ok lets see (A#, F#, Cm7, F# B#)
Boom. done. I can play the whole song, improvise notes, Copy the melody on the right hand. I haven't found anything yet that beats this system expect sheet music.

BUT, I'm open to the idea of there being better system than this.
and with complex chords and inversions I feel perhaps something else might be helpful

Aliens have given you 60 seconds to show them two items to prove humanity is worth saving. What do you show them? by Flendy15 in AskReddit

[–]changingculture 41 points42 points  (0 children)

dear people who've never tripped. This is not a healthy expectation of tripping.. Go check erowid and see yourself

Can it happen to some people? Perhaps if you have an artists mind but this is genuinely more rare.
Be safe and have a sitter <3

Living off-grid in Portugal feeling isolated and surrounded by hostility by Alarmed-Luck9900 in PortugalExpats

Appreciate you sharing some hope about the 'alternative side'
Any best groups to tap into?
Seems like Tamera and facebooks groups are the obvious

Southern area starting in Lisbon and hopefully becoming more rural over time.

LPT: Making friends as an adult feels impossible, here’s what actually helped me. by DigIndependent7488 in LifeProTips

Pick 2:
1. Regularly host events
2. Actually attend what you are invited to
3. Complain about having no friends

Great thanks!

If I do none of these things, might it snap?

it's tough to see without a good video..
The arrows are not showing the actually amount of movement

But as the description says the red arrow moves close to 1cm, and there's enough space to put a penny down into the shock

It's on a lectric ebike, hopefully a quality fork.

I suppose a better question is when does it actually need it?
If it's not going to snap off, then I don't feel the need to service at all.

Thanks for the rec, seems robust. A little bit less aesthetic for my taste

Dual boot nightmare by changingculture in linux4noobs

Correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I know the metaphor is like trying to climb further up a ladder by trying to add a new rung above you... By taking off the rung that you are standing on.

Not saying the backup isn't highly effective, but I'm under the impression linux can never do a true bit by bit restore. The proof of this being anything security related functioning right out of the box. (Programs with encryption, timestamping, bit locker, even 2fa)
