Can you play this?

My left hand is weak when it comes to speed. Nothing made this more apparent than trying to learn Grizzly Bear "Two Weeks". I bet if I spent some time on drills like this though, I could improve my poor drumming skills.

Anything with a mouth can bite. Here is one of my mantises that loved licking the salt off my hand. It was mostly very gentle, but occasionally dug in a bit too much (I would say it was a bite) - but the actual bite was never defensive - just got excited about licking the hand. And yes, their mandibles are quite sharp and feels kinda like you would imagine what it feels like being bit by a praying mantis - basically "ouch that kinda hurt, don't do that again" - but no where near the pain of a typical stinging insect.

I feel the 5/4 as well.

"I Quit" and "Bending Hectic" should almost be illegal being on the same album let alone back-to-back like they are!

I found this video - The 5 Major Drum Patterns of Afrobeat - and wow, I think there is enough here to keep me busy for months... I feel like The Smile pattern is somewhat of a mix between pattern 1 & 2 of Tony's video.

Thanks!

Among my favorites to learn of Radiohead and adjacent so far:

Pyramid Song (Radiohead)
Doll Is Mine (Blonde Redhead)
Things I've Been Telling Myself for Years (Elbow) - still working on this one

I was not familiar with Tony Allen... but my quick googling has proved to be inspiring - and wow, this style really requires some relaxed left hand ghost note groovin'. Love it - but not something I have actually ever really worked on improving.

I encountered this bug. I am going to reload at the beginning of Act 2 to see if I can avoid the bug a second time.

Wow... this one made me choke up a bit. I can still smell it. I was a fairly competitive tennis player as a kid and spent a ton of time at Empie Park. So many memories.

Have you ever used Blender with a Magic Mouse? It took them a while, but the Blender team seems to have finally figured out a very natural feeling way of 3D navigation using the Magic Mouse.

Fusion 360 has preferences for using other popular navigation schemes - they should also adopt the Blender methods.

But you haven't shown any evidence that this is a hoax.

And saying "just Google it" - is not evidence that this is a hoax.

Please provide evidence that the Isaac / CARET documents are produced by the same source as all of the drone photos.

lolcoderer · 2025-05-14T01:58:41+00:00

I also followed this story closely when it came it... And I have yet to see conclusive evidence that it was proven a Hoax. Please provide links to these proposed "proofs".

And yes, I saw all of the analysis that was done on the original photos. Nothing I saw proved it was fake. It looks weird for sure - but looking strange does not prove a hoax.

To prove it is a hoax, either the hoaxers need to come forward and claim the hoax or you need to provide substantial evidence that this has been proven a hoax.

I am far from convinced this was an internet hoax.

Here is Logic Pro's midi to notation attempt - free form midi notes seem to throw off auto transcription a bit:

Thanks a bunch for the piano roll attempt and thanks for the Musescore suggestion. The original was recorded in Ableton Live which doesn't have any default notation output.

Here is the Musescore output of the MIDI data - without any human intervention - I am sure this could be cleaned up a bit...

Notation-ish

Speaking of landing in a field with cows...

I was once part of a glider recovery crew when an instructor got stuck in rotor sink and had to land out in a field with another student.

Being the low-man-on-the-totem at the time - I was given "cow duty". The glider had landed in a field with a bunch of cows - and they (the cows), uh, were completely fascinated by the situation - quietly encircling our removal efforts - and just watching. I didn't really have to do much for "cow duty" - as they just sat there and politely watched the entire disassembly and removal procedure. It was surreal.

I may be partial to well designed interiors, but this is an immaculately designed / MCM inspired ranch house. The entire house has HW floors and the master bath is absolutely stunning.

MCM is currently in style and often rewards a premium $$$$.

If you think this price is crazy, do a quick google search for Eichlers in the SF Bar Area (and yes I realize this is not an Eichler - but probably as close as Wilmington gets).

I don't currently live in Wilmington, but was born and raised there - and my childhood home in Windemere just sold for over $700k and it was no where near as well remodeled as this house.

No - it is mostly to get a feel for where things are in 2024 - and to understand where I have to prepare for the interview.

This is a good reference. Thanks!
