Anyone else not getting any sound?

Okay Bezos

i like how when you select one note and it shows you all the positions, it's just the same shape repeating.

How'd you know I've been working on learning the fretboard? This is great!

I see a piano here: https://muted.io/piano/

If you are concerned about privacy then yes, look into using these instead of the defaults

We need drop C!!! (:

Great one! Is there one like this for a piano?

Public libraries pay for books they purchase (generally a higher price than retail bookstores) and many governments also have public lending rights that pay royalties per individual borrow.

I never said anything about used books, but they're basically considered a given and not something that can/should be fought in the first place. Used book sales are always going to exist, and have existed since the first books did. Besides, the first buyer counts as a sale, and most used books go through only a handful of readers.

Again, LibGen is great if you're broke and looking for a specific book. Not hating on anyone in that situation. But if you can afford it, or if you're looking for something more general (e.g. "a mystery novel set in the 80's"), then buying new or going to the library/bookstore, respectively, is preferable from the POV of the author.

Used books still cheaper

You can download the torrent files, and host them yourself, if you like.

Provided you have about 120 tb of disk space, of course.

Libraries and used books don't bring them more money...

Should I, as an almost exclusively smartphone user, use any of these? (For Reddit [currently using RIF], YouTube, and regular browsing)? I don't post to YouTube, rarely post to Reddit, and never socially interact with Twitter, Instaface, etc.

Just for books? 😕

Bahahahah please talk to actual workers. This is hilarious.

1. Anyone that has worked in transportation industry knows you tend to carry a bottle for when you are stuck in traffic. This is industry practice, has been ever since long haul trucking became a thing. Everything you have in your home contributes to it. Including things you buy from small businesses. Why single out Amazon?

2. close to wearing diapers? Lmao. Please find another cause to get behind. Bless your heart, this isn’t real. Go talk to actually Amazon workers, there’s half a million of them. Go visit the Reddit page AmazonFC. You can find many threads comparing Amazon work vs other warehouse work and they are overwhelmingly in favor of Amazon.

You have a good heart and care for others, but are being taken on a ride by shotty click bait “journalism”.

Honestly 8/10 points are BS and show a deep level of ignorance. Journalism has gone to shit.

-Ordering from Amazon is BY FAR the most environmentally favorable way of engaging in consumer retail. Each truck on the road replaces 35+ cars. Amazon also has the most aggressive carbon neutral target out of any retailer.

-Treatment of workers getting worse? Tons of threads in the actual Amazon FC Reddit page comparing work at Amazon vs other warehouses. They are overwhelmingly positive. Yes, lots of posts asking for more $ (latest wave is asking for $30/hour for sort and pick). FYI Average starting pay is now $18.50/hour. How does Amazons compensation compare with similar work?

For real. I worked in small businesses growing up. We got paid in cash, no overtime, no insurance, no taxes. People don’t realize large public companies are infinitely more regulated and monitored then small businesses.

Also, ordering from Amazon is by far the most environmentally sustainable form of consumer retail. But…. We are not ready to have that conversation.

Congrats, you invented Google.
Search "local bookstores." Done and done.

They most likely order from Amazon lol

Just can’t beat the price, speed, selection and secure payments. Last thing you want is your credit data in the hands of multiple small businesses with who-knows-what level of security.

Why would Amazon spend money and time training someone so they can leave

Please also note that management KNOWS if a worker is not scanning packages, or spending too long in the bathroom, and will ping their mobile device until they get back on track. People have reported that a manager will physically visit you within 3 minutes if you’re delayed. They could see these bodies on their surveillance system for 20-30 minutes. And they saw these bodies AND DID NOT CALL FOR PARAMEDICS.

I also didn’t mention the warehouse workers threatened with termination if they didn’t work in the path of a TORNADO. Warehouse workers who are now dead because of said tornado (prompting an investigation by the House).

“Bit tough to believe” yeah sure. You dislike Amazon and haven’t heard of these deaths. That’s easy to believe

Booksprice does support HTTPS but it seems the cert is for a casino rating website… as if it needed to be any sketchier 😬

I tried once to make an order somewhere else and their shopping basket completely segfaulted. Tried a second time and they were not sending to my country. It's hard to help people who are actively fighting your help :-/

Jolly good show sir!

Been obsessing about modes for a while and working hard at ear training. This fills in a ton of gaps. Thank you for the tool and also taking the time to add contextual tips
