  • You can install iodeOS on the FP 6 though

  • Someone with electric guitar knowledge mind explaining pickup placement to me?

    Jump

  • Placement changes the frequency response dramatically. Closer to the fretboard means deeper resonance, closer to the bridge means higher. What this means for guitar players is that you will have a more direct punchier sound near the bridge and a more mellow sound near the neck. How this applies to what players do with them depends entirely on the genre.

    More pickups means more options, but most of my guitars only have 2 pickups and I never use the middle one in the guitar that has 3.

  • Why are "love potions" always romantic in nature? Why hasn't anyone made a non-romantic variant?

  • What's a non-traditional candle scent you would like?

    Jump

  • Fog machine fluid. Love that smell. (I realise I could just get a fog machine, but it's funnier as a candle.)

  • Out of ten, how would you rate your ability to empathize with people with opposing viewpoints?

    Jump

  • This depends on whether the other person is willing to do the same. I have a few basic premises which I base my political opinions on, starting with "All humans are of equal value." If they come to different conclusions from first principles we can agree on, there is an interesting conversation to be had.If someone has an entirely different set of basic principles, I will have a hard time understanding them, but if they are willing to try to understand mine, I will listen to them as well. I will give no time to someone whose mind is already made up.EDIT: To more directly answer the question, I don't think talking to a hardcore, true believer-type nazi will go anywhere, but if someone who had a right-leaning viewpoint handed to them by their upbringing and surroundings is willing to listen, I would at least want to know how they got where they are so I know how to best make them understand my own point of view. Is this the same as empathising? I couldn't help myself but try to convince them of my point of view.

  • You must choose

    Jump

  • I have no idea who either of these people are, but purely based on the fact that one photo looks like a mugshot and the other is wearing a somewhat dope and flashy outfit, I'll pick the guy on the right.

  • Here we go again...

    Jump

  • We don't know enough to say it's bad yet, but it seems to not be what most Star Trek fans want out of a new show. People will go in expecting it to be bad, so it will have to be incredible just to be accepted. My hopes are not high, considering how Discovery ended.

    Is anyone NOT steaming their Music?

    Jump

  • I use spotify because it's the only one I know of that

    • has a student plan I qualify for
    • lets me download in Linux
    • allows playlists with over 2000 songs

    If deezer could geht their act together I'd switch to that, but they limit playlists to 2000 tracks. Buying every single song would be way more expensive than streaming, so I just can't afford to do anything else.

  • Behind the mind of Janeway

    Jump

  • Nah, what she should have done was to transporter clone Tuvix, so they can split one of the Tuvixes into Tuvok and Neelix while keeping one Tuvix. After that, throw Neelix out the airlock.

  • Looking to get a new phone with FOSS on it. What should I look into?

    Jump

  • I'm very happy with my FP 4 + Calyx OS, FP 5 seems like a fair generational improvement. I dont think any custom roms for FP 6 exist yet. If you're in the US, Fairphone might be harder to get. In that case a Pixel and Graphene is a very good choice.

    TLDR Fairphone if in EU, Pixel if in US
