  • Absolutely worth it. Had mine (MK3) for 5 years now. Besides having keys to play, I really like using the knobs to record automation, and the pitch stick to try out "bends". Those are also great for sound design in your favourite synth. I don't really use the drum pad (fun but impractical) or the other features, but they're there.

  • Close your eyes and think about the caboose

  • It can be hard to describe, thus my interest in what causes it. For myself I've somewhat narrowed it down to generally somber and emotionally-charged moments.

    The vocal/scream breakdown in the middle, though I think it's important how the whole song sets the stage for it:

    Deftones - Knife Party

    The whole thing, but especially the higher notes sung:

    Low - Laser Beam

    The guitar lead starting at 1:15 & 2:05 and how it synergizes with the bass line, especially on the third and fourth measure of its melody:

    Explosions in the Sky - Greet Death

    It can happen in songs with different moods though it's more rare, and I kind of think those moments still share some qualities in common with the examples above.

    Joyce Manor - Christmas Card

  • I'm not a huge open world fan. It's fine, but my preference would be more like multiple branching paths, some of which would be locked in a Metroidvania fashion, or just gatekept by strong enemies/bosses so you could still get through if you were stubborn enough. Something like DS1 interconnectivity, DS2 multiple branches, and DS3 Dancer blocking the late game, all put together.

  • With Metric and Stars? Holy shit what year is it?

  • I want to know about music that gives you the chills, and why you think it has that effect on you.

  • I come across these bedroom covers all the time when I'm looking for "(song name) acapella", even though a lot of the times they're not actually acapella versions. But sometimes they are. Love finding these and seeing another unknown person's passion for music.

  • What I said is fact. I'm just asking questions.

  • Hmm, what is this news source? I'm not familiar with The Spectator. Who owns that?

    Sir Paul Roderick Clucas Marshall is a British hedge fund manager, philanthropist, and media baron. He is the owner of UnHerd and The Spectator, and co-owner of GB News. According to the Sunday Times Rich List, he had an estimated net worth of £875 million in 2024, up from £630 million in 2020.

    Who is the writer of the article, Jane Stannus?:

    Oh, I see. A PP glazer and writer for Catholic publications. Not Canadian, btw. Ok then.

  • There's a thing called Birth Order theory and it may or may not be bullshit and subject to cognitive bias, but I will say that anecdotally it seems mostly accurate when I think of my group of friends growing up and their siblings. There are definitely some exceptions though, like my friend who is the younger brother, but is more responsible than his big bro, though we suspect the older brother suffers from some sort of undiagnosed mental illness and is unwilling to get checked out. Short answer in my opinion is yes, the older sibling tends to mature faster. I do think that the older sibling has some power over the younger ones by virtue of being older and more mentally developed while growing up. Whether they use that to nurture and protect, or abuse the younger sibling is more a matter of personality than birth order though.

    For your second question about feeling immature, I think it can happen to anyone at any time. Being put in a tough situation and feeling helpless about it can make a grown person feel like a child, despite being an otherwise mature adult. For me it happened less the more I became independent. But it still happens. For example, if car issues pop up I can get the feeling of "oh shit, I need an adult". I think personality is a big factor here too. As an only child my perception is that I feel less willing to ask for help than others, at least until I try to find a solution myself. Some friends who were younger siblings seemed to always be getting catered to, getting rides to places, etc. That might also be influenced by other factors like family's finances.

  • Around $200 CAD on groceries, and maybe $50 CAD on takeout (the local pizza place has a combo that feeds me for about 3 days). No more than $300.

  • Bees! / MORE BEES!

  • More fans and/or a portable A/C certainly seem to help. If there is air moving over you while you sweat it will evaporate faster and cool you down as intended, making you more comfortable. You can't really stop sweat altogether, only manage it.

  • Anyway, I just discovered that English has the same word for the crabs that walk on the ground and the ones that swim around. Those taste completely differently.

    Please describe the difference

  • Well that's weird. Everyone around me says I'm the best ever. The poll must be lying.
