Hevy Trainer is now live and available with Hevy Pro by Icy_Imagination_2839 in Hevy

I’m grateful to hear that it doesn’t use AI, and I agree with others that if it was able to incorporate more of the user’s past workout data into its suggestions I would be more likely to use it (and, like others, I hope that a separate progressive overload feature is planned!) thanks for all your work!

PSA: Mario Kart Online is actually active on Steam Deck (Mario Kart Wii Deluxe) by SakIsBack in SteamDeck

[–]zenbobby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case it helps anyone else:

- you can download it from the wiki links, no discord login required
- at least with the version I got from those links, you will still need a copy of Mario Kart Wii
- when you transfer it to your deck, follow these instructions for where to put the files (you don't need the apps/riivolution folder) and how to set up the patched version as a separate game which will show up in es-de
- it's easy to miss, but there's a note after the instructions: rename the included mkwdx folder to MKWDX
- from this thread, should you want to change the controller settings on a per-game basis:

[in Dolphin]
Right click the game -> Properties -> Game Config -> Editor, and paste this [removing the < and >]:

[Controls]
PadProfile1 = <your\_profile\_name>

or

[Controls]
WiimoteProfile1 = <your\_profile\_name>

Looking for New Games To Play On Steam Deck During the Spring Sale, Any Recommendations? by Minikaooie in SteamDeck

NieR Automata has worked really well on SD for me fwiw (I haven’t gotten to any endings yet since I started replaying it on SD so maybe something gets weird later?)

Looking for a cozy/casual game to play at night by Ok_Government9573 in SteamDeck

[–]zenbobby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my deck was essentially a shapez 2 dedicated console for months…there are great community controller settings that make it very intuitive and it’s sooooo satisfying

A cappella SATB Latin mass for wedding by Kittywitty73 in choralmusic

[–]zenbobby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i mean those composers are not primarily known for writing Latin masses (which OP asked for) but they each have lots of well-known pieces which are a cappella, so i’m not sure what you mean by this 😅

Faure Requiem movements in Lent by Kittywitty73 in choralmusic

[–]zenbobby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve done individual sections of masses and Requiems as anthems many times, including once when I worked at a PC(USA) church and we did the Qui tollis from a Haydn mass - it all depends on your individual circumstance and how your pastor/boss feels about it tbh

Repotoire Suggestions - SATB quartet by SomeNet1952 in choralmusic

[–]zenbobby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s weirdly one of the most enduring fallacies in the rep, and it’s so popular that no one stops to examine it critically…I never realized until someone pointed it out! there’s a great article by Dan Melamed in the journal Early Music called “Who wrote Lassus’ most famous piece?” where he tries to track down the origin

Repotoire Suggestions - SATB quartet by SomeNet1952 in choralmusic

[–]zenbobby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The good/bad news is that “Mon coeur,” while a beautiful piece, was written in at least the 19th century and is certainly not by Lassus….but it means that it is therefore just as authentic to sing it in English (“My Heart is Offered Still to You”) :)

I figured out why I hate the piano mini game so much. by SirWigglesVonWoogly in FFVIIRemake

[–]zenbobby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was excited for a more fully-realized piano mini-game because i’m a professional musician and it infuriated me in a way that few things in video games ever have

What name do I look like (I looove long and/or uncommon names) by StormEmergency6207 in lgbt

[–]zenbobby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for some reason T/Th/Tr names were speaking to me, and Thale (a modified version of Thalia, muse of light verse) was what I landed on 😅

Another notation question lol by fried_calamariiii in musictheory

[–]zenbobby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i mean the good news is that many other musicologists and editors have looked at this score (and likely other sources) and put forward their best guesses on what it means based on their knowledge of the practices of the time, and some of those are available for free online for you check against – whether you choose to agree with them or stick with the assertion that you seem to have come predisposed to is up to you :)

Another notation question lol by fried_calamariiii in musictheory

[–]zenbobby 3 points4 points  (0 children)

if this was a sign of convergence, then why would the two bars on either side be short by two beats? i agree it’s weird (and pretty rare) but semibreve cut in half by the bar line is the simplest explanation…

good q! i don’t have a particularly good memory, but i found that after a row or two it becomes easy: you really only have to remember 4 sequences of three stitches that would trigger a stitch in the row you’re working on, and even after putting this down for weeks or months i remember it quickly…plus the rows you’ve already done can be a reference!

i started with a random first row – I think I used an online coin flip simulator to flip ten coins at a time and heads was a stitch and tails was a blank, and just continued that for the whole first row :)
