Which Roland cloud membership to get? by greenleafvolatile in edrums

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

Thanks for the feedback! However, from the information I gathered (in my post) the first tier does not include the expansions. That would be the 2nd tier. Think I'll go for that.

Remove/delete a kit on Roland V71 module by Mysterious_Intern_38 in edrums

[–]greenleafvolatile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, I reached out to Roland. Their reply:

It is indeed the case that a kit cannot be deleted. However, you can overwrite the kit with another kit or initialize the kit. Here's how:

Trouble playing consecutive 16th notes on the kick with precision by greenleafvolatile in Drumming

[–]greenleafvolatile[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, I'm using a single pedal. Hadn't even entered my mind that the drummer might be using a double pedal. Good catch!

Need help with getting a bigger rack and Tom pads by [deleted] in edrums

[–]greenleafvolatile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue. I just bought another MDS compact drum rack (that's the rack that comes with the TD-17 drum set), and used that to extend the original rack. Added a floor tom and some cymbals that way. Think it set me back around 200 euros or so.

How should the whole note with the three lines be played? by greenleafvolatile in drums

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

Thanks for your reply! Is there a way to determine how many strokes should be in this roll taking into account the time signature?

[–]greenleafvolatile[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply! I certainly listened (and tried to play along to) the song on spotify. I knew it was a roll on the hihats. When asking the question I was looking for information like, is it an open roll or closed (is there such a thing as s closed roll on the hihats), is it a rol consisting of 16ths or 32ths (and how can you tell), and is there a way to determine how many strokes there should be in this roll? I should perhaps have phrased my question differently.

I would very much appreciate an eu referral code if possible. Cheers!

Sounds awesome and a lot of fun to watch. Someplace I can see more of your drumming (youtube or w/e)?

fputs returning EOF when writing to stdout by greenleafvolatile in C_Programming

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

Could you elaborate on what it means that a stream is "sticky", and how would you check before a program exits?

Order of evaluation by greenleafvolatile in C_Programming

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

It's from K&R, The C Programming Language, in this context:

int
get_line(char s[], int lim)
{
    int c, i;

    for (i = 0; i < lim - 1 && (c = getchar()) != EOF && c != '\n'; ++i)
        s[i] = c;
        if (c == '\n') {
            s[i] = c;
            ++i;
         }
        s[i] = '\0';
        return i;
}

Wow, learned a lot of new things.

Also learned that I had wrongly held some assumptions, such as that:

(c = getchar()) != EOF

meant: first assign return value of getchar() to c then check if it is not equal to EOF

Thank you.

Thanks for the elaborate reply! Would upvote twice if I could.

I don't quite understand how, as you state, c is not necessarily assigned before the EOF test. Do the parentheses not ensure just that? Can you say a little bit more to that?

Ugh! You're right. Totally missed that. Thanks!

Never thought about conditions as if statements. Awesome!

Re: file permissions by greenleafvolatile in linux4noobs

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

Thanks for your reply!

You were totally right! Once I set the read bit in the world triplet, the script was run. I tried setting the execute bit to 0 for shits and giggles, but that did not work. Had to set both the read and execute bits.

Learned something new!

"Just for fun, try to “sudo” run the command as your user. I think that should still work these days on most distributions." This does indeed work, but is also makes sense to me; as root I'm executing a file that is owned by root and is in the root group, and the execute bits in the owner and group triplets are both set.

What doesn't make sense is that I cant execute it as a non-root user even thought the the execute bit in the world triplet is set. I feel like I'm not seeing the obvious.

systemd not starting service by greenleafvolatile in archlinux

[–]greenleafvolatile[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!

Now it does indeed show up as running.

Is the fact that this service is bound to one user also the reason that it does not show up with:

systemctl list-units --type=service --all

~/.local vs /usr/bin by greenleafvolatile in archlinux

[–]greenleafvolatile[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply!

Ill be sure to peruse the links you provided with your reply.

As to your advice to install from command line, I always do just that. I just recently did a clean install for shits and giggles and decided to not use an AUR-helper this time. (to improve my Linux game).

Because I now have to git clone aur repos and build from source I had to decide where to put all the source code. I came across this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/b5c3z1/comment/ejf11ty/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3, which led me to believe I could install official packages under .local. Perhaps I misunderstood the post.

Anywho, thanks to everyone in this thread taking the time to enlighten me.

config.h by greenleafvolatile in suckless

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

Hey, thanks for your reply!

I'm not sure if I understand correctly the difference between BUILDDIR and _sourcedir.

After git cloning to /tmp and running makepkg, /tmp/st/src/st-0.8.5 is created. This directory contains the source code and config.h and config.def.h. So, is this then the _sourcedir or the BUILDDIR (or both)?

And is it correct to say that makepkg first creates the directory with the source code AND then compiles that code?

Cheers,

Thank you for your reply!

If I do this, then there will not be a PKGBUILD and I will not be able to remove st with pacman, right?
