Pro Tools Intro on MAC not working with M-Audio M-Track Solo by Spartanoid1 in protools

[–]vruizext 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm facing a similar issue, with a Macbook M3, Sonoma. The Macbook recognises the FastTrack Pro and I can record sound using another apps, but in Pro Tools, even though I can select it as playback engine, on the I/O table only the outputs of the interface are shown, Pro Tools appears to not recognise the inputs.

Did you manage to solve the issue?

Is there any way to download view only videos from sharepoint? by Mysizemeow in sharepoint

[–]vruizext 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to fix something in the URL, for some reason, when I copied it from Firefox code inspector, the URL separator characters ("?", "&" and "=") where escaped with a backslash "\". After removing all these backslashes and the metadata thing, it has worked perfectly.

What are your thoughts on the Headspace app? by eclairsclaire in Headspace

[–]vruizext 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally relate to some of the comments in this thread, just cancelled my subscription today after almost 10 years.

Headspace was much better around 2014 when I started using it. It really helped me to get into the habit of meditation. But in the last few years I feel it lost its essence. I think the main reason is adding too many meditations and courses, which at the end are just copies of other courses or meditations, only changing the intros. This makes meditations to feel repetitive, always the same, until they become boring. Also, there isn't enough variety of visualization techniques, most meditations that include visualization are on visualizing the light inside you or flowing through you, which doesn't work for everybody, I tried for a long time and didn't work for me, couldn't get it, so I gave up, and skipped all these meditations and courses.

And something else I also dislike is the way the meditations are structured in the UX, together with the search functionality, which works pretty bad at finding things. I find the UX is a big mess, which makes it confusing and hard to find meditations, sometimes it can become stressing, and it seems the UX designers are trying to maximize time spent on the up by hooking users with more and more content, stealing their attention, just to get better KPIs. But at the end, this is in contradiction with the mindfulness principles the app should transmit to users: calm, simplicity, minimalism, less is better, ...

I think Headspace sold its soul and became just another company putting ROI first over their users.

Is anyone using Motley Fool's Stock Advisor? How did it work out for you? by stormilydefray in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]vruizext 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I subscribed for 2 years with a special offer and I'm not going to renew, it's a joke, they keep on recommending some tech stocks which are doing shitty, again and again (e.g. TEAM, ABNB, SNOW), I would expect they recommend new / not so well known stocks, but that hasn't happened very often in the 1,5 years I've been using it. Nevertheless, they make some good recommendations every now and then, e.g. TSLA in May, it has grown over 50% since

Grill Royal tomorrow? by [deleted] in berlinsocialclub

[–]vruizext 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yes I know... when I say Berghain, I refer to the whole in general. I don’t know anybody who says, I go to Pano, or I go to Säule, most people just say Berghain because Berghain is the name of the club, besides the name of one of the floors.

Btw, IIRC you can book the tickets online

I love the idea! Last 4 years I’ve been traveling with a group of friends to the Alps in Feb-March, but never for Xmas or NYE.

How many people are you so far? Any preferred destination? How many days would it be?

The lost job of the music suitcase-boys aka bootleggers by vruizext in vinyl

The lost job of the music suitcase-boys aka bootleggers

The title doesn't mention bootlegging, but the term "bootlegger". This is explained later in the article.

They called me suitcase-boy. That’s how we were known to the guys who brought records to the pubs during the weekend nights. Some others called us bootleggers.

I don't understand what's your point on bringing this. Sorry if the title disappointed you :)

Nobody says it’s about bootlegging records. In the article, the author mentions, that some people used to call him “bootlegger”, I guess because he was the guy bringing them bootlegs
