I am doing things in just about the most idiotic and inefficient way, break the circuit down into easy to emulate blocks then emulating how they interact by adding in stuff which mimics that interaction. Essentially I break down the circuit

You understand correctly. All of the amp modeling and virtual analog stuff is still fairly limited and they largely focus on getting the stereotypical sounds of the source, not the full range. Modeling things more fully is not difficult but

I think a big problem with things like Uber Eats and DoorDash is many of them do not give the option of leaving a note with the tip, if part of your order is missing and you give a poor tip because of that than the driver has no clue that i

The results are rather superficial, not impressed, having Speedboat by Adler in my prompt resulted in getting books about boats. Needs to at least be able to distinguish fiction from non-fiction if it is to be useful, The Wreck of the S.S.

I think most people are rather practical when it comes to numbers and adding two three digit numbers is generally not very practical. A cup of rice is simple and direct compared to 7800 grains of rice. How much water does it take to cook 78

In my experience people primarily use the term "MacGuffin" in reference to things they do not understand but see the significance of, they reduce theme to plot, they make the idea of a MacGuffin itself a MacGuffin. This irony seem

Monkies stealing booze is a fairly common issue all over the tropical world, just do a search for drunk monkies. Bali is known for its thieving monkies and they even exploit it for tourism, they have a park called Alcoholic Monkey Forest fi

My point is that it serves no practical purpose and that is why you and others have issues with it. You spend two weeks reading a book and you can not share that with others because most will not read it. You spend an hour watching TV or yo

Reading has always been a niche hobby and in the 80s/90s they were saying the same thing about TV. Reading is not exactly social and provides little in the way of tangible gains, most people are pragmatists. I have been an avid reader

I am always amazed at how election season news can make me hate "news" even more than I normally do. What does this matter? It doesn't matter, at least it shouldn't. Trump played the same stupid game that Clinton played

Snap, flatpack and the like are not really sorted out yet and possibly never will be. Best to avoid them and if you cant install from your distro's repo than compile it yourself. The issue with your friend and their M1 was probably bec

I have not used Macs in years but the one observation I would offer, a good amount of linux/OSS software seems to break when Apple updates the OS and it does not seem a good platform if you want to keep using such software. This observ

You strongly disagree that the X1 and X13 have the best laptop keyboards that I have used since my old T42? Or that the side bevels serve no purpose beyond aesthetics? I don't think you can make a case for either but feel free to try.
