Watch Animated Sheet Music for Miles Davis’ “So What,” Coltrane’s “Giant Steps,” and Charlie Parker’s “Confirmation”

Watch Animated Sheet Music for Miles Davis’ “So What,” Coltrane’s "Giant Steps," and Charlie Parker’s “Confirmation”

Miles Davis’ Kind of Blue changed jazz. It changed music, period. So I take it very seriously. But when I see the animated sheet music of the first cut, “So What,” I can’t help but think of Charles Schulz’s Peanuts cartoons, and their Vince Guaraldi …

Taliban is officially recognised now. That's what.

It's the fact. Communists did this in Russia, China, Vietnam, Korea, etc. Jews did this in Israel. Yankees did this in America. If you take over a country and manage to hold onto your reign, eventually others will recognise your rule.

Recognised by whom, similar outcasts? If you are not recognised by developed economies, you get no foreign investments and you're doomed to remain a shithole country.
* China might recognise you for its own gain, but in the end they will fuck you over and in time own your country.

Communists did this in Russia


No, man, they didn't. Ever heard of this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_…
This is what I'm talking about — without universal legitimacy all you get is a civil war, by the end of it they could suppress most of the resistance, but even that didn't grant them international recognition, it took going through WW2 as an ally to have that.
That is exactly what I'm talking about — without popular support you have to subdue everyone with violence and in case with a big enough country even a foreign invading force is incapable of this, a bunch of fanatics can do nothing of the sort.

eventually others will recognise your rule


Yeah, precisely! If you're lucky enough to remain in power for decades 😏

No heroes stormed the Capitol on January 6th.

This one owns up to his criminality...and he deserves praise for it...

“This was a horrible thing that happened, and I deserve to go to prison, and so does Donald Trump. He still deserves to go to prison for having caused that. I think maybe one day he will,” Riddle said.

Dr. cleared me to do 97% of normal activities, nothing that will jar my neck is allowed as the bones are still fusing.

Celebrated by getting a 5 egg omelette with bacon, sausage, ham, peppers, onions, potatoes, and cheese, with a side of watermelon. I'm now stuffed and probably won't eat for the rest of the day, glad that I got my 20 minute bike ride in.
After 45 yrs, and being out of shape a 20 minute ride is something. Slowly getting used to bike riding again.

I'm 3 months post surgery and spent the first 6 weeks in a neck brace limited to lifting 8lbs, then the brace came off and I was allowed 15lbs, and after today weight restrictions have been removed (within reason). I can now replace the 10lb resistance bands with 30+ and get back to working out, and setting up my massage table so that I can stretch and not have to deal with getting up off the floor.

“Sorry, we can’t afford jury trials.”

You can afford warplanes carrying tactical nuclear weapons. You can afford a King. You can afford a Cold War SLBM system. You can afford a subsidised bar for members of Parliament.

Once you get rid of those, come back to me on how you can’t afford to allow people their right to a jury trial.

In my warmup for #OldComputerChallenge 25, I dusted off ol' pal #RaspberryPi model B and burned #NetBSD 10 on an SD card to set it up.

It all went well (slow, but hey) but one thing that I still can't get around (that I didn't experience so much last time I tried it) is the console. Control chars get printed instead of arrow and home/end keys, no colors, etc. Hate to say it, but all in all, it feels backwards compared to a modern, full-fledged console environment of #FreeBSD or Linux. And it's starting to wear me out.

But I have a feeling that this is somehow my fault for not configuring the console properly or using the right output or something. I never had to deal with this before, so anybody knows how I can configure this so I can have a modern env in NetBSD?

Anyone know if there's any way to turn this off permanently in mastodon options or something?

I don't want a counter for notifications. It bothers me and it's a pain in the arse to get rid of constantly. I can't find a way to get rid of it - it should be on a setting, in my opinion.

I see the Notifications tab on my view all the time, so I can see my notifications I don't need a counter. But number goes up and I have to click a button to reset it 😖

(using the browser btw)

#mastodon

It's Mastodon! It says 'Home, Trending, Live feeds and then Notifications' except notifications has a little blue icon next to it that reads '40+'. Unnecessary bother.

“You cannot be a leftist while also not seeing working class people, regardless of their vote, as propagandized to vote against their self interests. Foundational to leftism is that we've all been programmed to see ourselves not as the worker but as temporarily disenfranchised billionaires.

Okay, after much googling (and years of no answers whenever I brought it up to dermatologists) I am diagnosing myself with Solar Urticaria. Unlike the commoner Polymorphous Light Eruption (PLE), SU can be triggered by non-UV wavelengths (including through clothing, like yesterday when I was wearing sun-protective UPF pants, per image) and appears minutes, not hours, after exposure. Also my skin eruptions look just like the pictures.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_ur…

Apparently management includes my favorite antihistamine for sleeping, good ol' Benadryl! I've been avoiding it due to fear of senility, but one makes trade-offs in life, and since I suffer both sun allergy and chronic insomnia, I'm gonna take it every night for a while. Yay! A little further "research" indicates elevated histamine levels can cause insomnia. Elevated histamine is associated with autoimmune disease, which I have up the wazoo. Benadryl, here I come!!!
