I feel you! My best friend is a drummer, and so many operational problems could be avoided by having him play an electronic drum or or other non acoustic percussion.

But it's really not the same thing, so we have to accommodate.

Besides, there is more than one country in Iberia

Believe it or not...

As a regular orquestral concert goer (I would say I average a concert a week per year at least) reading your description of the tuning process gave me goosebumps.

It really is one of the best sounds on the world! The tension! The anticipation! And then seeing and hearing a well rehearsed group of people move from casual conversation mode into serious business mode in a few seconds. And from chaos comes order. And then the silence, only broken by the applause when the maestro and soloist(s) arrive.

One of life's biggest pleasures if I may say so.

Don't jest, just say more micro services than paying customers and you have my work life described.

My understanding from reading the article, is that the issue is not so much matching the deciphered lines, but the interpretation of that deciphering. So they want the scholarship agreement on what is actually written on the papyrus.

I imagine there are plenty of missing words being inserted, unreadable letters being guessed and so on.

So the way to do it for now, has to rely more on experience and intuition than a database search.

That would be extremely interesting, but the fact that you have an incline would change the ideal body type and tactics so much it would be a different sport at that point.

But I would love to see it for medium distances, just to see what crazy stuff would happen!

Not cheating, the reference (a tree carving IIRC) would be in the tree before the events of the first game of the series, so before guybrush would have met Elaine. It’s understandable that she would have lovers before guybrush, but the implication that one could have been the big bad LeChuck, makes guybrush fume, even if it’s just an initial.

4 thumbs down and a frown emoji are “too heated” and close the PR? What horrible way to handle things. Another one bites the dust…

I second this motion... I really want to apply this to stoner doom and really see if it's all about "bong" "wizard" "weed" "mammoths" or not!

Popcar2 , a note on your disclaimer that you are not affiliated with the Godot foundation. Is that usual in projects using an engine? Or is it because of your , IMHO, poor naming choice.

Think of this way, if the tagline of the project was “EstragonOS, a fake os made in godot”, would the disclaimer be so proeminent in the page?

I think you know you are playing with fire, to make the disclaimer a larger font. It’s not too late, consider a rename.

Not my thing personally, but would you consider making a kit version like other manufacturers? At least for the early adopters could be a nice route and lower the price somewhat.

Although you did not mention it I never expected a sub 1000€ price tag.

That would make it the most expensive piece of gear in my home studio, if you do not count the laptop.

As I said, it certainly seems to tick all the boxes, but hard to justify. I still hope that you can validate the concept and in a couple of years I can grab one for around 500€.

Once again, best of luck on a very interesting if very niche project!

Wow, this seems absolutely amazing for my use case.

Seems a perfect machine to just connect a nice synth with a multi fx pedal, and crank out a new song in a couple of hours! No distractions.

I guess I wont be able to justify the asking price you seem to be avoiding mentioning (which I can totally understand why, don't get me wrong), but I will surely follow the progress with great interest!

In any case, congrats and best of luck!

Which also one of the reasons I loathe the move from open BB forums to Facebook on the niche/ hobby communities.

That we are repeating the mistake with discord, is very unfortunate.
