Thanks, I appreciate it 😎

Thanks! It’s a combination I think. Some lines are just the fingers leading and the sense of rhythm telling me to start a run and then stop when I hit a chord tone on a strong beat. Some are deliberate arpeggios that are meant to extend the chords underneath (I’m bad at this imo, but I think it’s pretty important to practice). Some lines are just the mind following the melody where it leads, only subtly aware of the chord tones (practicing singing the melody you’re playing is wonderful for this). And some are just licks :)

Just a few seconds of goofing on guitar, trying to figure out how peertube (fediverse-enabled youtube basically) interacts with lemmy and mastodon.

You might also try @ing the group directly from pixelfed in the post, eg @creative@beehaw.org. Idk if that will work but you can try!

[–] halfflat 2 points 1 year ago

Weird, I’ve had pixelfed stuff automatically embed correctly before!

These are amazing renders. I’m so bad at go but I made an effort to play more a few weeks ago and it’s a ton of fun.

No prob! I'd actually recommend making an account on one of the kbin instances if you're curious at all about it. It works a little differently and has some unique design goals which gives you a bit of a preview of how the fediverse might move forward into the future and beyond the web 2.0 that we all know. Interesting things are ahead, it seems :).

Kbin.social is (at least since I last checked like 30 minutes ago) federating, they removed the cloudflare ddos protection that was making federation impossible a few days ago. If you take a look at the kbin’s all page you’ll see plenty of material federating from lemmy.world and us over here on beehaw. You should be able to just search for kbin magazines with the regular Lemmy search, but I’ve found that to be inconsistent.

Haha, I just had this problem, and weirdly the solution was to search for the owner of the kbin magazine, navigate to their post history and find the magazine/community that way. A bit clunky 😅.

Truly, there are few things better in this world than seafood + noodles + sauce

Fascinating. The origins of the method are a real rabbit hole too, I kinda miss the era where stuff like this would crop up on forums.

For Spanish I‘ve been on a hour-a-day schedule combining reading a novel on lingq, duolingo (which is a handy review tool if nothing else), and verb form flash cards. I do plenty of extra stuff outside of that, watching shows and podcasts in Spanish, but the 10 hour a day timeframe advocated by the original L-R sources is definitely intense.

Anyway, thanks for the write up! Some great sources here for sure.

Thanks! Yeah, it's a really provocative element of the tuning. I'm still wrapping my head around phrasing with the leaps that are right under the fingers.

[–] halfflat 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I had never heard of the L-R method before, it's kind of astonishing that it has worked for folks. I suppose LingQ/LWT combines some of these approaches together


it's hard to imagine doing 10 hours of LingQ reading though.

Not sure if rules against self promo prohibit vids of us noodling or not, but I've been working in "New Standard Tuning" (all fifths and then a high minor third) lately and it has been a fun experience...apart from having to memorize 4 note per string scales, there are some real finger twisters at the low end of the neck for sure. Anyone else tried this out?
