Ableton lets you import .mid files which can be easily created from western notation using MuseScore. I use Ableton as my DAW and if I want to write something in staff notation I just write it in MuseScore (because it's got a good inte

MIDI data can easily be converted into western score notation and vice-versa. You can write a musical score in western notation using MuseScore, export it as a MIDI file, and then import that into Ableton and see it on the piano roll. It&#x

I couldn't handle Steam Link on WiFi. For anything beyond Stardew Valley and Rimworld the sudden quality drops and latency were too jarring. After setting up an additional gigabit switch for the bedroom and running some Cat5e it works

There's little reason to commit a whole Arduino board to a project when you can easily flash the Arduino bootloader onto an ATMega and embed one in your gadget. I think I own exactly two Arduinos: an UNO SMD edition that I use for flas

Glycerol is glycerin, glycerin is glycerol - it's mainly a matter of UK (glycerol) vs. US (glycerin) terminology.

Eliminating factory farmed meat from my diet is an aspirational thing for me; right now I don't have the available time or mental energy to commit to planning my diet to actually achieve that. Taking up deer hunting certainly helped me

I really want to switch for this reason, but I've naively come to rely on Chrome's saved passwords feature. What I really need is a tool to migrate my saved passwords from Google to Firefox or some other service.

The first CD that I ever bought back in 1991 came in a longbox, but I don't recall any of the CDs I got after that coming in them.

I really loved the Sansa Clip but the battery in it failed on me and I never did replace the thing. Sad to hear that they stopped making them because being reminded about it makes me want to pick up a new one.

I've been using the same Microsoft Optical USB mouse at work since 2008. It's so heavily used that the textured plastic has been polished completely smooth where my hand touches it. It's great and I hope it never fails. Also.

I build guitar amps and effects pedals as a hobby, and trying to monetize it sucked all the joy out of it so badly that I ended up leaving it completely for about 18 months. I've only just gotten back into it and I'm starting over

A black hole itself (the singularity) is 1 dimensional - a single infinitesimal point. The event horizon around it is roughly a sphere. The diagrams that you are talking about are a visual metaphor that represent 3D space as a 2D plane and

The idea that the elimination of the 3.5mm jack has anything to do with waterproofing is a complete misdirection, as evidenced by the list of waterproof Android phones with USB-C and 3.5mm jacks. Also, any modern phone with bluetooth is jus

The M27 upper is 100% compatible with a standard AR15 lower. The main advantage to the short stroke piston is that the gas tapped off the barrel that operates the system has less distance to travel before it hits the piston compared with th

A vehicle title and a vehicle registration are separate things, though. It's entirely imaginable that an LLC may be able to own a vehicle title while still not being able to register that vehicle.

I've found the top speed in every car I've owned. 145 in a 2.4L turbo Volvo 855 (limited), 130 in a 2.2L Toyota Camry (limited), and 105 in a 1.5L Mazda2 (wind resistance). At this rate my next car will max out around 90.

For me, killing animals for meat isn't a problem. It's the way that they're treated before they're killed that bugs me about factory farms. I shot a deer about 6 weeks back and butchered it myself, and I don't feel

My stereo is from 1979. For the last 30 years mainstream audio equipment has been in a race to the bottom on BOM cost and build quality. A well made stereo receiver from 1975-1985 will, when paired with the right speakers, greatly outperfor

What exactly do you mean by "render only as a single pixel"? With a low enough resolution sensor, the sun would render as a single pixel when observed from earth.

The US is a big place, and there's plenty of localities within it where that 3.7% figure might as well be in a foreign country.
