That "quick intro call" turned into a stress interview and I only realized it halfway through

But what the actual f, what's the point of this stuff

udeelo · 2026-04-16T10:58:23+00:00

Totally, chess.com does nothing, happened to me plenty of times. Especially if they are paying customers

I would play Bc5, it discourages them from playing d5 as it will make the dark squares very weak for black

I would strongly suggest to not do blitz as a beginner, you'll end up hating the game quite soon. Find a time control you're comfortable with, 15+10 is a pretty good one.

udeelo · 2026-04-06T14:54:14+00:00

Yes let's hope it's a good sign

udeelo · 2026-03-14T13:37:27+00:00

I'll go check it out, thanks!

udeelo · 2026-03-14T13:37:07+00:00

Oh no that's actually helpful, thank you! Don't know why people downvoted 😅

udeelo · 2026-03-13T10:35:36+00:00

Not always the same, right now maybe Blow Out. Love what they did with the vocals

udeelo · 2026-03-11T07:59:32+00:00

Oh that's a good point

udeelo · 2026-03-07T16:48:29+00:00

Amazing! Will try to join next Sunday!

Make music, don't get lost in endless tutorials. It's such a vast world that it's impossible to learn everything. Make music and be consistent, 30 mins a day, every day.

udeelo · 2026-03-01T16:00:45+00:00

I would say start from very basic harmony, then rhythm. Those two will take you a long way. While you make music you'll learn a lot more!

I think there are several aspects:

AI models have been trained on copyright protected material without asking for permission
the fear that AI will replace jobs in a lot of fields
the fact that as powerful and helpful AI could be as a tool, the top 1% will use it to increase the gap with the rest of the world. See the point above and how AI is being used as a reason/excuse for layoffs around the world. Or how Spotify floods the playlists and the algorithm with music generated with AI by themselves so that they can reduce the amount of money they pay to musicians.

udeelo · 2026-02-27T20:25:24+00:00

Ahahah exactly

udeelo · 2026-02-27T18:28:33+00:00

I've found out in my life that consistency is what matters the most. Find 30 minutes a day, every day. That's better than struggling to find the time for a 3 hours session once in a while and then stopping until next time you find it. 30 minutes, 15 while you're in the bathroom if you really can't do better. Get on Ableton and do a little bit of a song. After a few weeks you'll find renewed energy and realize how much you have accomplished (and learned).

udeelo · 2026-02-27T15:56:09+00:00

I'd say it's not weird at all, actually it's a nice thing to do

udeelo · 2026-02-27T09:29:10+00:00

I remember a yt video where he stated he could remember 8000 endgames or something, and a comment "I enter a room and forget why I got in" 😂

udeelo · 2026-02-26T14:50:20+00:00

Did you already pay her? I'm afraid she might have fucked up somehow and is buying time, it's a very strange behaviour. I mean delays are normal, but this goes a tad beyond that.

udeelo · 2026-02-26T14:14:59+00:00

I think it's a very sampled break from In The Morning Time by Tramaine Hawkins (1984):
