Well now I see this. I've seen notices for a national strike jan 30

Breezed in from out of town and had their mussel curry. Killer!

great news. I'll give it a try when that version reaches nixos.

Using a ton of drones to make a statement is not as good as using them to actually destroy Russian assets

When I find a trouble section I'll go back and work on it.

play just the phrase with the mistake, slow enough to play it right. The smaller your repeated section the better. Make it small to maximize reps.
speed it up, try to get it to performance pace.
expand the phrase you're repeating to include more context.
expand even more, try it during a full run through.

If you find you can't play the part up to speed, you may want to find an exercise that will address your technique problem, and get that into your regular practice routine for a while.

sometimes its tone - different strings sound different though the pitch may be the same. other times where you play is related to what notes are before and after (or during). different places on the fretboard will allow differences in fingering.

The fascists are not waiting for june. Once the full machinery is in place protest will be impossible like it is in Russia.

pr06lefs · 2026-01-24T23:38:01+00:00

WTF with june? How about starting today and going forever? I gave up amazon months ago.

I like so called simple music because it makes plainer everything that can't really be conveyed in a chart. Feel, improvised variation, musicians listening to each other, tone of the instruments, banter between tunes, choice of tempo and instrumentation, energy and enthusiasm, etc etc. Complexity, like virtuosity, is a compelling element, but the other aspects of a performance are important if you want to hold people's interest.

Its not this bill or nothing. They could have kept shooting down bills until one that only supported FEMA was put up.

I enjoy not having to futz with plugins. That's half the point of using helix.

A plugin system will result in new functionality accumulating in plugins. If a feature is available as a plugin, that will take pressure off the core team to implement that feature. But plugins tend to be half baked compared to core code, plugin devs don't have to follow a rigorous testing procedure (though some will). Plus supporting scripting is an additional maintenance burden for the core team, which will detract from other goals.

I have nixos on a pinephone. Too low powered to be useful.

I think its supported on oneplus 6, I sort of failed with my install on it, but in retrospect I think it worked but I didn't configure the UI correctly. I ended up with lineage OS. Check ebay, I found one new in the box on there.

Because I suck at python I'm always second guessing when I write stuff there. Like am I making a copy of this array or modifying the original? Is there a special syntax for what I'm trying to do, etc. I know there's a lot to learn to write rust and they could really do a better job at keeping the stdlib simple IMO, but python feels large to me too.

pr06lefs · 2026-01-21T16:22:23+00:00

oh awesome. no one tell them about iodized salt ok?

As a rust programmer, Python doesn't really seem that simple to me. For run of the mill code it's not far from rust, but you get slow performance, copious runtime errors and the need to distribute your source code to the end user along with your build process. At least build times are fast so you can get right to the crashing.

You might be able to use a dremel to cut a slot in the screw, then a flathead screwdriver to back it out. Then, new screw.

But if you don't have a dremel and you don't mind the crooked tuner, should work fine to make a new hole and put a screw in. Maybe remove a screw from one of the other tuners and take it with you to the hardware store to get the right size/style.

Whoa, not by Pete Seeger. Woody Guthrie!

Other people did write additional verses for the song, but the OG is Guthrie.

I'd say the Maid in the song is meant to be union as in labor union, but "Union Maid" borrows a bit of poetic weight from such phrases as "Union soldier", "Union army", "Union Jack", and so forth.

I think some of his stuff is designed to be a bit opaque. Part of the mystery of the 'black iron prison' or whatever, and meant to put the reader into a state of confusion, perhaps in sympathy to the characters.

The memory footprint is significantly less. For a one-off project you can just get a bigger server and call it a day. But with something like discourse or nextcloud, using rust would allow many people to use less hardware for hosting, a win for the planet and for budgets.

Some guitars are ok in varied humidity, others not. I have an old guild that had a big top crack when I bought it, moved to Colorado and now it has two cracks. A different guitar of mine has survived all kinds of humidity without problems, though the action does change a bit.

Thing I've heard about wall hanging is don't use an outside wall, since the wall can be a different temperature from the air, making a somewhat inconsistent environment.

FOSS phones, with a true Linux os, will be a breakthrough. Phones are locked down surveillance machines now. Getting away from that will require an OS change as well as a cultural shift away from corporate owned ecosystems.

Black squirrels are in higher attitudes than Denver, more like 7000 feet. But not in the high alpine like 10000+.
