Get a teacher, it really helps. My teacher has small group class, which IMO are the best bang for your bucks, 2-3 students make the class cheaper than one while letting you time to play. Then as intermediate you can have bob plays the chords and Alice the melody which is great.

With 2 weeks of self practices, don’t expect to play anything properly. It’s called being a beginner, it’s normal. At your level focus on switching open chords with a metronome (slow, like 40 bpm)

Easiest song I know would be come as you are by nirvana, usually the first new guitarists learn. Then here comes your man by pixies may be achievable(ospecially if you can play chords) then anything pop punk (the offspring) is super si le but may be fun r next year

But being high make them incredibly dangerous for other road users. If a normal car hits you, you break your leg, it sucks, but within a month you’d walk on crutches and within 6 month you’d be fine. A SUV hitting a pedestrian or a cyclist will break their pelvis or even their back which has a harder recovery and long lasting consequences.

These stuff should be banned

Interesting, I always thought the Schufa was a government service. But isn’t it way lighter than the US “rating” ?

pretty sure that having “credit agencies” keeping track of people credit history is a huge violation of GDPR and would be illegal in the EU. At least I never heard about that. The only similar things I know is the central bank keeping a listing of “unpaid credit” which make ban you from getting any new credit for a certain time. (And as it’s a public institution, you have the right to contest any writing there in court if it 's not justified, stuff like identity theft being a classic one)

CVs are supposed to be at least 2-3 pages

Where is it the case ? I always heard CV are expected to be kept short, and stay on one page unless you’re one of these senior experts with a crazy experience. A young graduate sending a 2-3 page CV sounds at minimum pretentious and would go direct to the garbage.

Now, it seems that “Not being able to find a job” is a great reason to pursue further education.

Something worth repeating is that transistors are a direct application of quantum mechanics. Quantum physics isn’t a metaphysical thing about half dead cats and working only on a few ultra cold atoms. If you want to explain how a piece of silicium can be conductive or insulating depending on it’s polarisation you need… Quantum physics.

A TV scenarist would have written that plot, we would have thought it’s not realistic, especially that part on the right wing, with that posh lady (Ms Pecresse, head of the Parisian region) rolling up her sleeve to kick traitor Ciotti out.

Is coralline supposed to be “kid friendly”? It’s one of the few books I wasn’t comfortable reading in alone in the dark, no way I let a kid read that

The minimum threshold is tricky. Sometimes due to alliance or political dynamic, a party/list struggle to reach 5%. But banning them from running again seems aggressive. An election even lost without any seat nor a public payment of the campaign fee, is a chance for a party to be heard and put back some issues in the debate. Look at the green who often do low score, but sometimes manage to win

Renters rights legislation with enough teeth to make present and perspective landlords, both corporate and individual, think twice before not taking care of a property as though they lived there? (

Isn’t it mostly an issue on the US side of the pond (and in other third worlds countries). I believe that most European countries have minimum standards regarding renter right, it’s not perfect (and reality is that changing a furnace takes weeks). But every time I read about US feel likes dystopia.

I am talking about having sunlight up to 22-23 in the evening, Unfortunately, I don’t live anymore in a place with many days above 40. (Which to be fair are great as a kid when you spend the afternoon chilling near the river, but sucks when you’re adult and stuck in an office)

Summer

• No need for rain-clothe, or warm clothe

• Outdoor activities are possible without damaging the gear due to the humidity, and if you like water even outdoor swim became possible

• Having sunlight up to 22 or even 23 is pretty great, you can have a late dinner outdoor, or get some beers in the parks with your friends. It’s also safer to come back home, especially if you ride a bicycle or are a woman.

• Many people are in holidays, so things are quieter

Plot twist, in most of these cities, it was already hard to reach 30 due to the traffic. However, a similar movement happens in rural area too with a speed limit at 30, a big speed-bump, and a speed camera to make sure you don’t go faster

What the fuck ? Quoi la baise ?

Looks like that at best France won’t have a majority, at worst we’ll have Ms Le Pen as a Prime minister (France is a semi presidential regime, and if the President doesn’t have the majority, most of the power shifts toward the prime minister, with a president only relevant for international policy)

In the East sea of China

I don’t want to sound like a tankie supporting winnie the poo, but I assume the Dutch would do the same if a Chinese frigate passes by the North Sea.

Dutch have the right to sail in international waters, and Chinese have the right to send a fighter to check them out

Forgot that simple trick to get maps :). But actually when I use rpg maps, it’s digital and printed and in general not bought (either found online or done)

Best season, weather is nice enough so Ican enjoy outdoor activities.

The last summer before the “brexit” I went to scotland, one of the classic hike there is going atop the Ben nevis mountain. Even though in summer it’s not a complicated hike, I still bought a paper map to not be yet another tourist lost in the mist, I have a limited trust in mobile phone map in outdoor activity, especially when the weather isn’t optimal.

Question was triggered as I stumbled open that map when sorting some stuff on my bookshelves.

Even though there is already a !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world and a !doesanybodyelse@lemm.ee This c/ is still quite small, and doesn’t get saturated with questions which belong elsewhere. Somehow splitting the content over 3 communities also get them way more empty than a big active one.

We’re still far from the magic reload button we have on that other website which every minutes would see tons of new post.

Is that already done? Remember the big protest against it 10years ago.

In the end how useless it is? And how much of a money pit it is/was
