I´m not sure whether you´re a bot or not, insisting on spreading negativity on your every comment. And there are many. To any humans reading this: Please don´t let moron bots like this stop you from believing in the goodness of humanity.

    Doing good things and then talking about them is one way of making the world better. Better even than just doing good things. I´d much rather have bots/spammers post stuff like this than the endless fear and hate they usually post.

    There is not, at least in german. But german offers us the possibility of making one. I´ll use the Zangendeutsch for douche, "Dusche", then "Verdacht" for the suspicion, "Bestätigung" for its revelation as true and "Moment" which is german for, well, moment. Put in some suffixes (-en and -s) for grammatical reasons et voila: Duschenverdachtsbestätigungsmoment, a brand new german word meaning "the moment of the confirmation of the suspicion of the douche".

    The trick is to do the absolute minimal amount, but to do it daily. Then, if you feel like it on any particular day, do more. If you don´t, thats okay.

    In case of workout that would be "Do exactly one pushup or similar exercise".

    It´s applicable to basically anything you want to get into a habit of doing. "One minute of concentrated practice on your instrument.", "Two verses of poetry.", "Ride the bike for 100 meters.", "One line of code.", "Memorize one variant of a chess opening.", the list goes on.

    Just don´t begin too many things at once. The above are only menat as examples.

    totally depends on what your ultimate goal is.

    independent from that, i recommend the highly customizable exercises at musictheory.net - knowing how stuff works is good, practicing it until you recognize it instantly in sheet music and/or on the keyboard is a whole other beast.

    Ich bin gerade bei Keimtag vier von meinem ersten Balkongrow - und meinem ersten Grow überhaupt. Ich habe zwei Balkons. Einer kriegt morgens Sonne, der andere nachmittags. Soll ich die Pflanzen lieber mittags und abends (oder morgens vor Sonnenaufgang) rübertragen oder besser an einem Ort lassen?

     

    Um die Frage etwas konkreter zu machen: Es gibt zwei Fortbildungen, die mich beide Interessieren und die beide am gleichen WE liegen. Die eine ist erheblich teurer, aber auch inhaltlich attraktiver. Wenn ich das Geld nächstes Jahr sowieso in vollem Umfang zurückbekomme, ist die Entscheidung quasi gefallen. Wenn nicht, muss ich nochmal arg überlegen. Weiss da jemand was? Das Internet erweist sich hier als wenig ergiebig.

     

    Someone did an IKEA logo on the canvas. In a nod to toki pona, I´d like to move the A to the right, so it says IKE A instead. That would mean "How ugly!" in toki pona. I hope this doesn´t go against community rules. If so, please remove the post.

    Anyway, the logo is here: https://canvas.fediverse.events/#x=218&y=457&zoom=25

     

    I have a little programming experience but am completely new to shell scripting.

    I have several hundred mp3s which I want to split using mp3splt with the command

    mp3splt -A XXX.txt XXX.mp3
    

    I have run this command by hand in the past but now have a project where doing it by hand would be impractical due to the number of files. In my imagination it should be easy to write a script that searches a folder for all the mp3s that have a txt file of the same name and runs the above command on them.

    My question just is this: Is there any obvious reason this would not work? If you (meaning: a person with experience in shell scripting) don´t see any such reason, I´d work my way through this tutorial to work out the rest. If, on the other hand, you say it is impossible, I can just stop and do it by hand.

    Thanks in advance!

    In case you are interested in my use case: I play irish music, which is based on short melodies played by heart. I want to learn these melodies using anki with audio files. For that, I need to have audio files with just one specific tune each.

     

    Hey, I´m a music teacher from Germany. As part of each lesson I show my students musical (and music-like) traditions from all ages and places, and let them guess where and when this music was created. A while ago I´ve shown them a haka of the All Blacks, first audio only so they could guess, then with the video. Since then, a group of 11 year olds is constantly asking me if we could perform a haka in the group. I myself would not be opposed to doing so, but I would want to do it with the necessary respect. So I thought I´d come here to ask: Would you find it disrespectful if a group of german children and their teacher performed a haka? If the responses here are positive, I´d follow this Wikihow for the actual performance. Thanks in advance for any responses.
