    The Official Guitar Thread

    looks like that can't do alternate time signatures? one of my issues is my songs tend to have a lot of time signature changes. makes creating drum tracks for them a pain in the ass. when i used to do it ages ago i used FruityLoops (yes before the FL Studio name change, i guess it was a long...

    you'd get some good mindfuck moments from Holden if he found out that the entire thing was predetermined, he has no free will, he was "humanity's hero" because the protomolecule or some even greater force wanted him to be.

    lots of little things had me thinking it as i watched this latest season. can't remember all of them exactly right now, but the train of thought started because i was trying to wonder if all these mentions of Holden;s multi-parent genetics being relatively unique is a sort of Chekov's gun...

    i'm just a show watcher, not a book reader, but i keep thinking there's going to be some big reveal that the protomolecule somehow orchestrated the whole thing from the start, down to picking Holden to be the "hero" from birth

    any of you guys that record make your own drum tracks for your songs? what do you guys think is the best solution for adding drum tracks to guitar demos? both paid and free i suppose. maybe i should just get a drum kit and a metronome.

    the hard lock with Lattice was just too unfun of a way to lose, i guess? i thought it was fun in a weirdly flavorful way but apparently too many in the community thought it was just cheap.

    ah cool, yeah USB-C makes sense as a solution, thanks man. figured the solution was something fairly simple, but i was having a hard time phrasing a google search to get an answer.

    is Windows 10 advanced enough that a laptop with one HDMI output and a splitter can effectively have three unique screens worth of desktop workspace? or is technology still "dumb" enough that the splitter can at best just duplicate a display?

    You think this Ars post is potentially going to derail science and cause some drastic loss of funds to science in general, that's your counterargument now? You are devolving into being so much more retarded than you initially called me out to be lol

    So I'm right overall that public opinion matters, but I'm wrong that this individual blog post matters. Is there some number of blog posts I could present to say that public opinion has reached an appropriate saturation level to reach the image as a whole that we agree upon? How many articles...

    Scientists might not be affected by pop sci, but there are countless examples since the fucking Renaissance where public interest in a scientific subject helped push scientific advancements. Perhaps because, tho scientists aren't affected by pop sci, the people that FUND science are? Idk. But...

    Pop sci trickles down from actual science, and as a lay man with limited funds I don't have access to the scientific journals where I could go to read about this stuff first hand.

    I just meant that I was happy to see it on Ars. Yeah, it's just Ars, but the more places that give it credence the quicker we'll solve it and maybe get new science... I'll just quote the last paragraph of the article, because they were better able to state what I was just about to try to say:
