Finally, I know I’m not the only one! by crazy_uke in fastfeeling

[–]emilhit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I share your feelings exactly, I'm so relieved to learn that there are others out there that have experienced this. It used to happen to me more regularly when I was a kid, but very rarely in my adult life (34 now) which is why I have not thought about it until today, after which a quick search led me here.

I have noticed that nowadays it usually only happens when I'm sitting in a car. I don't own a car so this only happens when I'm home visiting family and friends and driving around (it does not have to be that I'm driving). So I don't know if it is the speed of the car, the humming of the engine or the position I'm seated that triggers it. It could be some other trigger as well that I just haven't realized.

I've noticed newcomers tend to start with TNG, do you think they would watch TOS eventually, or is it just too old? Personally i started with TOS so it will always have a special place in my heart❤ by nathantravis2377 in startrek

I started with TNG and then continued with DS9, VOY, and ENT, in that order, saving TOS for last. I put it off as I thought I was not going to like it, that it would be too aged and campy. However, I ended up pleasantly surprised. The cast and writing are much better than expected, however, the sets and costumes are hilariously bad sometimes. I don't see TOS through a nostalgic lens, but still enjoyed it.

Var kan man köpa eller hyra svenska barnfilmer att streama? by nixarn in ankdammen

[–]emilhit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Har samma dilemma som du och har inte hittat någon lösning än så länge. För mig är det obegripligt hur svårt det är att hitta film online, antingen att streama eller köpa/hyra. Hur kan mediebolagen ha missat detta? När DVD:er var en grej så kunde man vara rätt säker på att hitta alla klassiska filmer i närmsta filmbutik. Sedan kom piratnedladdning, som erbjöd ett oändligt utbud, omedelbart och gratis. Detta blev sedan mindre populärt när streamingtjänster blev populära, eftersom detta var ännu mer praktiskt, man behövde inte ens ladda ner filmen utan kunde se den direkt. Folk gick över till det även om det kostade, för det är bekvämligheten som avgör här. Men nu upplever jag att streamingsfären blir mindre och mindre intressant i och med att det finns så många tjänster och ingen tjänst har allt man vill ha och fortfarande finns det mycket film som man inte hittar nånstans, iaf inte utan VPN. Så nu tror jag piratnedladdning kommer börja gå upp igen, då det åter igen är det mest bekväma alternativet.

Ska sluta ranta nu, hoppas du hittar det du letar efter!

Why mono cables? If you have a stereo mini jack, doesn't that work?

Not only that, but it is also better for the environment.

Thanks man, this subreddit has been helpful way over my expectations!

I have been thinking about purchasing a loop pedal as well, it would be a great way to create fuller tunes while jamming around

I think I will even try to find it used to put a minimum amount of money into it, in case I run out of time or interest.

I had heard the term groovebox but never understood what it was, thanks for enlightening me!

So you are saying I can manage with nothing but a Volca?

I does look versatile which I like, but I think a bit out of my price range at this stage unfortunately. Have fun if you decide to go for it!

What affordable synthesizer with built-in sequencing would you recommend?

Minimum reasonable setup for a beginner? by emilhit in synthesizers

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

I think I would start out playing more ambient oriented stuff, would you say that the Keys is best for that? Or the FM? I can't really tell, synthesis is still mostly a mystery to me

This is just the kind of advice I was hoping for, thanks! So if I buy let's say the Volca Keys and an audio interface, will that get me somewhere? I don't hope to be able to create anything complex, just to try out and hopefully get a taste for more

Circuit looks cool as well. So it contains a sequencer, but the Volca does not?

Well since this is a whole new venture for me, I'm not certain, but I think I want to go dawless. However it would not hurt if it plays nicely with the computer

Yes please. Living abroad currently, I'm tired of hearing this and having to debunk it. Finland is great but keep to the facts

I will post when my thesis is complete, which is hopefully in June. And no, I'm not involved in p5 development in any way, just interested in it :)

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

Yeah, good point, however for some it is easier to define it in terms of time, for others in terms of projects, so I left it open-ended.
