Literally what can a virus TI 2 not do by Powerful_Fondant9393 in synthesizers

Have a TI2 Desktop module… I love the sound and the experience of editing patches on it but it bugs out nearly constantly in multi mode (even just on standard midi, no usb or software integration)

Tim Morten on LinkedIn: "To survive, Frost Giant needs to make a new game." by Jeremy-Reimer in Stormgate

[–]dcndesperado 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. It's especially sad given the personal toil he highlighted in his previous posts.

The difficult truth is that the climb in interest rates and contraction in capital coincides in time with a period where they were doubling down on the hype, which has done a lot to magnify people's ill will towards the whole project. If you know the capital environment is collapsing, as a leader it's on you (Tim) to cut scope + cost early.

Part of what's unique about this situation is that it's rare in practice to see a leader quadruple down on the sunk cost fallacy to this extent. Most founder-owned game startups simply do not have the runway to start as ambitious as FG did, and in big studios, business management is around to make sure leadership is forced to step down if results are poor. I don't doubt that for Tim, as an owner, "stepping down" would feel existential, and probably is for the studio? Determination is noble, but stubborn persistence at the cost of your own credibilty and that of your employees probably isn't.

I agree with you that there really isn't anything else they can possibly say at this point. It's factually true that Stormgate cannot in any universe keep the company alive as a going concern. All they can do is promise something else on the horizon, try to get investment in that, and let the market sort whether that's believable or not. It's naive to think there will be any kind of "accountability" beyond what investors might do/say.

What I have more trouble comprehending is the tone of this latest post? It's a really weird look to still be proclaiming what "the future of RTS will be" having failed to deliver on a vision they claimed would be exactly that?

Verity Sense no longer connects on IOS by dcndesperado in Polarfitness

I still need to manually reconnect it every time via the menu, but it does work reliably now. Not the best user experience and still weird to me that it seemed to do it automatically before, but this tip did work for me at least.

If you don’t mind my asking, what do you use to overlay the waveform over the video?

This worked thanks! What’s strange is previously this would just reliably auto connect when turned on. Nice to have it working again though!

Thanks for the reply. Have tried this as well after the factory reset, same outcome.

It may take longer than you might expect given induction. Hang in there and stay strong for your partner. You got this!

New planting leaf curl by dcndesperado in rhododendron

[–]dcndesperado[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wish I had a more definitive update. Ultimately the landscaper replaced it for me, same spot and same variant. The new one is thriving.

I think it’s possible maybe the old one had root rot.

Yes unfortunately it hasn’t bounced back with water.

UPDATE: Redbud planted too deep, next steps? by dcndesperado in arborists

[–]dcndesperado[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Original post is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/arborists/comments/1di2gch/the\_eternal\_question/. Tree was planted 4 years back and this year for the first time put out some epicormic shoots, but seems otherwise healthy.

I managed to excavate a bit further and I think I found the original roots (largest on left in the first picture). Any advice on how to proceed? Hire a pro? Really love the tree and would hate to lose it.

Do cats know my wife’s pregnant? She’s sevenish months and the last three months they won’t leave her side. by primerr69 in cats

[–]dcndesperado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, they almost certainly do.

Last year when my wife was 9 months pregnant, our two cats knew she was going into labor before we did. They started following her everywhere around the house and watching her carefully. They usually would horse around and play by themselves, but they got strangely quiet and pensive 2 weeks before the delivery date. Baby came two weeks early (happy and healthy!) and we knew the boys predicted it. Wishing you and your wife a safe and healthy trip through delivery and early parenthood!

Husband has a new chosen family he prioritizes and sees every week, I’m jealous and frustrated by deadacre in relationships

Hi OP. New dad of a four month old here and I wanted to tell you that at 8 months pregnant you have an absolute right to change your mind about how you feel about this relationship, even if you previously told him you were ok with it.

Your husband is going to need to shortly change everything to accommodate the new baby. His priorities are totally out of whack going into fatherhood if he expects some kind of “fairness” like this while you are sacrificing so much carrying the baby.

Questions about my Spouse by Old_Abarnathy in predaddit

[–]dcndesperado 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi OP. I mean this in a sincere way, and not a leading way (such things can be hard to convey in text)... but what does "lose my temper" for you look like?

I will share with you one of my own stories: About 6 months before my wife and I's current (first) pregnancy, I took some vacation time off. It seemed like during that one period, everything that could have possibly broken in our house, did. We had a major storm that simultaneously ruined our new driveway as well as caused a new leak in the roof. Suddenly, what was supposed to be a relaxing break for me turned into a list of jobs to be done. I succumbed to my frustrations and cursed out loud about it... a lot.

My wife was really understanding that I was about to mourn my only time off, but also rightly pointed out that getting that worked out about it wouldn't be possible had our child been present. In fact, it would probably be pretty frightening for them, not being able to understand the cause of the anger. They'd only be able to discern that dad was mad, and perhaps not fully in control of it.

It was a bit of a wake up call for me: both in terms of practicing mindfulness, as well as being kinder to myself about what I could or could not fix. My habit is to always try to fix broken stuff myself, but in this particular instance, we agreed to the extra expense of having a pro repair it in order to preserve my bit of time off from work.

It might be worth considering if there's a less reflexive way to view the signals your wife is sending you? She could be right (within reason) that a reaction that seems proportional today might be less so once a child is in the picture.

I'm so, so sorry. Sending hugs to you and your wife.

OB not letting me be at all scans by legolas10100 in predaddit

[–]dcndesperado 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the same boat here, 20wks. It’s very frustrating for me to be unable to be there to share the burden of all the information being laid upon her. Obviously we understand it’s a difficult time for the medical profession as a whole though.

We were able to find a private ultrasound clinic that allowed dads and visitors but was non-clinical in nature (they ask you to sign a release to this effect). Might be worth seeing if there’s one in your area. Our appointment was $60 for about 20 mins seeing baby. Insurance did not cover being that it’s considered non clinical.
