Call me catty Any pronouns
ive found this actually just exhausts me to the point that I don’t end up learning anything and just become a tad upset. i respond far better to brute repetition with minimal other busy work, like pre-made flash cards or studying with someone else. I also like rereading articles/study materials until I can imperfectly recite them comfortably :)
i know this wasn’t necessarily an invitation to anecdotes but i just wanted to make it known that this is NOT universal
i dont know if this is what they intended to say, but ive found that when I exclusively practice with sheet music then look away, I’ll completely blank. my brain relies on the constant reminder of what comes next. this might be okay if you plan on playing in an orchestra where you’ll always have your sheet music or chart available (which even then… what happens if theres an issue with a page turn? or the ipad doesn’t work?). it DOES NOT work whatsoever if you plan on playing music in any other setting where you won’t be able to stare at your music. its as if recalling the music and thinking deeply about it and its structure is an entirely unique sense you develop, and ive found that its mutually exclusive with keeping your eyes on the page.
also, keeping your eyes on the page makes it much harder to improvise, if thats your goal. when youre playing something and it deviates from what’s on the page it can be very very disorienting. i might add to this comment as I dwell on it, this is something i care a lot about
i play keys, vocals, upright bass, bass guitar, viola, and guitar for context. played in the context of organized orchestras to bedroom bands to solo performances
It was enabled and for some reason grayed out so I couldn’t disable it. Looked up several solutions and nothing worked so I just updated my bios. That ended up working.
I clicked on the KDE version because it said that would be closer to a classic “desktop” environment, and yes the Nvidia version
I followed every instruction on that page once it happened and still nothing. Even after a full reinstall. I’m worried it might be some bigger, harder-to-fix problem like something with my sound card. See my edit for a better update
I’m on an MSI Thin GF63. I don’t hear MSI laptops get mentioned often when it comes to Linux compatibility so I have no idea if this means I’m simply fucked or if all of my problems will purely be software issues. I’m installing Bazzite right now because I’ve heard it mentioned several times here.
I’ll give this a shot right now and update the post if the issue persists across operating systems.
after inc. was made by the developers of plague inc. and is a personal favorite of mine
on top of what the others are saying… i don’t necessarily think shes unattractive
I mean I havent seen her enough to give a full opinion but I really dont look at her and find her anywhere near repulsive like you seem to
shitty
Alright, absolute noob here, I’m not particularly interested in computer science or an OS I have to obsessively research. First, how is gaming on Linux nowadays? I play a lot of games, most of which are not triple-A, so I wonder how accessible this is. Second, what distributions are accessible and still customizable? I have all kinds of peripherals I’d like to be able to use, speaker systems, midi controllers, etc.
its not day ruining, but as i said in my original comment the stress definitely adds up
oopsie daisies thats a config issue on my part ty
people like me who can be bothered by it
you not being upset by it doesnt necessarily mean there arent people who are upset by references to suicide or portrayals of sharp objects in this context
its not quite necessary or expected on lemmy as far as i can see but its definitely appreciated when i have to see one less triggering post, cause the stress does add up
though i will point out that its pretty useless when the image isnt spoilered or hidden within the body cause who reads the title first and THEN decides if they want to see the post
agreed, when people are FIRST learning to read sheet music it can be helpful to keep your eyes on the page and learn to associate certain notes on the page with certain finger/hand positions. yes, I regret my reliance on sheet music earlier because now my ear is waaayy behind. i kind of see it like understanding a piece of writing. if someone asks you what the article is about and you have to reference the article directly to answer it then I wouldn’t consider that to be truly understanding the article. same with music, if you get asked to play something and you have to read straight off the page then I don’t think you “know” the music. you just know how to play it. for some, thats all they need.
if someone is really just looking to be given music and made to play it according to the page then learning to read and play will be all they need. if they want to reach that next level though, like writing music, improvising, playing in a band, playing without your music, being a more dynamic performer, etc. they should learn to know the music.
i appreciate you pointing out the thing about mastery. i dont know that its that I’m “more experienced” though. i think we just have different goals and different instructors. my instructors were always people who were in their 20s who had experience in rock and jazz. i suppose I’m just highlighting the limitations between classical training and being trained with rock and jazz in mind. my goal (and I’d assume the goals of most of your students, if I’m right to assume theyre on the younger end) has always been to be an independent jack of all trades who is capable of writing, performing with other people in an informal environment, and improvising. i think the style of learning ive been describing can be more conducive to that. i would ALSO ALSO argue that it is more difficult and “risky” to teach in that way. you need a deep, practiced understanding of music theory, of your instrument, of the students life and willingness to learn, etc. its far more resource intensive.
ive been writing about this far too long lol I’m gonna cut it off here. i appreciate your perspective, ive admittedly never had a career of teaching people about music, but I have definitely explained things casually to friends and other musicians. i think it would help me to pick up that experience by tutoring on the side at some point.
