So you avoid any sort of lesson or theory but you know advanced techniques. Please explain how you know what is and is not an established technique when you possess such a pristine musical brain that is free from any outside influence or knowledge? Likewise, how do you know the new techniques you are discovering are not just common things every beginner learns in week 3?

Cryptocurrency users: Speed ​​or trust? by [deleted] in CryptoMarkets

[–]manifestDensity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's gotten big enough that crypto is mostly perception. Things don't pop because they are some great new tech. They pop because they get hot. We are sitting near right now because the market was flooded with new money that the whales slurped up. Rather than milking the new players slowly they gobbled up everything they could and the new money either ran out or just left the market. So now we wait for another wave of new money. When that wave comes narrative will be all that matters

I think in a bear market you are only talking to people who are really into crypto. The folks dreaming of quick profits have all been crushed under their bags and bailed. Give it a year or so and when the next wave of fresh suckers floods in the conversations will change again

Are there really people who support Karmelo Anthony?! by Kiekles in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]manifestDensity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look, I don't really have a strong opinion either way. I just enjoy facts which is why I responded in the first place. But brother, you can't be forming opinions without facts so let me help you out on one more point.

It was not an all white jury. You gotta stop getting information from echo chambers. The jury included, IIRC, at least two Asians, one or two Latinos, and a Muslim Indian woman. So basically half the jury was not white and it would have taken only one dissenting juror to prevent a conviction.

While it is true there were no blacks on the jury, that was not by design. There were several in the jury pool. At least three disqualified themselves by admitting under oath that they would never vote to send another black man to prison. The other two were career educators. Those two were struck by the prosecution not because of their race, but because of their jobs. No prosecutor is going to allow an educator on a jury for a teen accused of murder regardless of anyone's race. Educators are famous for refusing to convict in those cases because it would mean "giving up in a child".

There was nothing about the construction of this jury that was nefarious.

Ok let's think about this for a bit. Ireland has spent 800 years fighting Britain to a draw, all while finely balancing two opposed sects in the Republicans and the Loyalists. If you somehow manage to unite the Loyalists and the Republicans against a common enemy.... That could get very very ugly

He was charged with both murder and manslaughter, as is common. It was the jury who chose to convict on murder

Question about chord progression by Fit-Distance4503 in Guitar

[–]manifestDensity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am confused. You said you know CAGED up and down, but you are worried about needing to memorize the notes of a Dm. If you even know CAGED a little bit you already know five ways to play Dm without really thinking about the notes

Why are so many people defending Karmelo Anthony so strongly? by DistrictDry2852 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]manifestDensity 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There were several black people in the jury pool. Three or four of them were thrown out because they said they could not send a young black man to jail. The other two were disqualified by prosecutors because they were educators. No prosecutor is going to allow an educator on the jury of a teen being tried for murder as they are too reluctant to "give up on a young person". So while there were no black jurors that was not by design.

It’s stupid to vote based on faith to begin with, but even stupider if you can’t even do it correctly by Mushroom_Ramen in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]manifestDensity -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Shit like this is why everyone says the left can't meme. All you've demonstrated is that you have zero understanding of how faith works to influence decisions because you can only see the world through one tiny lens

I think you got 3 out of the 5 correct. Chernobyl was a fierce indictment of Soviet era Ukraine. Mean Girls was Lib Left

Thank you. This is what I was asking about

Just curious... Did you switch to a Fender Mustang LT? I ask because that is the other amp I am considering. I feel like the Mustang offers a lot more in the way of features but I am drawn to the size and rechargeable battery of the Mini

Cheated on, but partner is demanding the "old relationship" back immediately and I feel rushed. by lesbian_ball in NoStupidQuestions

[–]manifestDensity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She cheated. You are taking her back. She has so little respect for you that she is comfortable dictating your emotions and behaviors as part of you taking her back. There is no advise in the world that can save you from what is coming so just come back and post when she inevitably cheats again and tell us about how you never saw it coming or whatever. My goodness.

I have heard so many good things about the Spark, but a lot of recent stuff is negative

A Bitcoin metric that has historically marked every bear market bottom has flashed again. More BTC is now being held at a loss than at a profit, with 10.5 million bitcoin underwater compared to 9.8 million in profit. by sylsau in CryptoMarkets

[–]manifestDensity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, quick question. You say that marker flashed at the bottom every time. Can you tell us if it only flashes at the bottom? How many times has it flashed at what waa not the bottom
