WC 1M Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

My Linux User Group meeting was fun!

The topic was the OpenShot video editing app, which happens to be cross-platform (it's available for Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X). The presenter did a demonstration of OpenShot, which looks really easy to use.

I've always been interested in still photography, but I've never done anything with video. I might give OpenShot a try. When I get a working MXPE back, that would be a perfect opportunity, since I'll want to use the video camera just to ensure that it works.

BTW, I got an email from FedEx that a MXPE will arrive on Tuesday. Hopefully, it won't be a brick. The folks at the Linux Group meeting were flabbergasted when I told them how I got a refurbished brick last Friday.

It's not that the chords themselves are complex, they're not. They're just (as with most metal songs) standard power chords. It's that the actual songs are complex as a whole, with these simple power chords all over the place, all up and down the neck of the guitar.

It's like the difference between a classical piece, where you'd have one or two complicated, or complex (6 string) chords versus a metal song where you have 8-10 simple power chords (2-3 string chords) at all different locations on the neck, played very quickly.

With the former, you're focused on precise finger placement for these complex chords, where the latter, the power chords all have the same basic chord "shape" with the fingers. You're just moving your hand up and down the neck to different positions more rapidly. It's more like a workout! lol
Here's one for you, Ed, about Rush.

Morning folks. A rainy day in NYC...a wet funny farm isn't all that fun...

G4 Approved
 
Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Oh yeah have both :p it would be nice for people who like having it. Personally I don't need it since I rather press the Windows button and let the OS handle background apps.

The m8 had double tap to wake? o.O

It does. It is a tall phone with the power button at the top, so adding tap to wake made sense. I only used the power button to turn on and off the phone. I was a big time tap to wake + tap nav bar to sleep guy. Made the phone that much easier to use...

G4 Approved

Morning, we have sun and warm weather. Which is nice. The weekend is looking a bit confused though, as always. :P

So I decided to do a before and after photo of my kitchen. The before is what it looked like when we bought it.

So here you go.

The kitchen isn't 100% complete but you get the general idea.

Sun in the UK? Guess the clouds heard Trump was coming for a visit and fled to France...

We've had two days of pure blue skies and sun. Today was the first day with clouds but still warm.

Good to hear it. Today is dreary with the rain and I feel as dreary as it looks outside. More tired than anything else...

I'm very impressed at how compact this XL is. It feels more comfortable to use one handed than the G4...
 
Re: WC 150K Post Challenge - You Ready?!

Turning back to Windows? :P

May still be a dual user. It's not like I'm going to get rid of my Z3 tablet compact anyway, so...I could go the 99 route - a windows phone and an android tablet.
