ah ok

shy bobcat
#

@whole rapids Trust you you not, your opinion to say? Have you fear before horror films? Run you away as soon you in the dark a sound hear? When you all three questions with "yes" answered have, are you probably a coward

#

100 percent näitiv english translation

whole rapids
#

#

oh actually

#

I have something good for you

shy bobcat
#

what 😄

#

wow pferd left me hanging 😦

pine ginkgo
#

i have sentences

whole rapids

@shy bobcat look what Volkswagen sent me mmlol

shy bobcat
pine ginkgo
#

lol

whole rapids
#

"by feed"

#

pls

pine ginkgo
#

is that for an interview?

whole rapids
#

"stage" for "Haltestelle"???

#

yeah

shy bobcat
#

oh i didn't even look at the english version

#

i just saw one of the words was cut off in the german version 👀

#

or at least looked like it

whole rapids
#

yeah it is

#

it's just bad mmlol

shy bobcat
#

"arriving the stairs"

#

brilliant

#

so i wait there until the staircase shows up?

whole rapids
#

my gf and I made that joke too

#

good laughs

#

I wonder if I should correct it for them

fallow lance
#

Would "fäth" be pronounced similar to how "faith" is said in English?

pine ginkgo
#

nope

fallow lance
#

Dang, thought not but Google translate did it pretty close. Also know that can be terrible though.

shy bobcat
#

it'd sound like "fett"

#

also it's not a word

hot cloak
#

isnt the e pronounced long?

pine ginkgo
#

i think fat is a good approximation

#

for the pronunciation

fallow lance
#

I know it's not a word yeah, someone asked me if I could replace the "ae'" in my name with "ä" but I was thought not

pine ginkgo
#

if it's not supposed to be pronounced like in german

#

you shouldn't care about that

shy bobcat
#

there's no good way to really represent the english word "faith"'s pronunciation in german spelling

#

that "ay" sound doesn't exist in german

#

neither teh "th"

fallow lance
#

Funny to think my nick would be pronounced "fat" in German hahahah

gusty linden

#

gimme some tips in learning german

raw prawn
#

um.... practice a lot

#

and use what you learn by having german conversations

opal sequoia
#

Practice is pretty helpful.

#

Especially practicing in lots of different ways.

#

As many ways as you possibly can.

raw prawn
#

always try to push yourself slightly past your skill level

#

e.g. if you're A2, push towards B1. This way you learn new things that you can use. If you push too far, you'll be making more mistakes and a greater variety of them, leading to lots of new content that you won't be consistently practicing

minor plank
#

hmmm ok

raw prawn
#

like, if you try to use lots of Konjunktiv I, you might make mistakes more frequently AND it's not immediately useful for your skill level. it would be better to practice things closer to your level so you'll actually get there in the immediate future instead of jumping around

#

but at the same time, don't be afraid to learn by making mistakes

minor plank
#

okay

raven hull
#

What arc said ^😊

raw prawn
#

:P

raven hull
#

So how do I learn French 😂

raw prawn
#

um... the same thing :P

raven hull
#

Right ~

#

I don't know my French level, maybe I should participate in one of those tests

pine ginkgo
#

unless it's an official test, they are not really worth it

#

and if you can't estimate your level, it probably also doesn't matter

raven hull
#

Nvm then I'll just start from semi scratch again xD

pine ginkgo
#

that's better

raw prawn
#

lol

pine ginkgo
#

look at all the grammar stuff and see what you remember

#

can you still form all the important tenses?

#

can you actually form a coherent and correct sentence?

raven hull
#

I remember almost everything once I see it but I can't use it lmao

#

Non

raw prawn
#

Maybe do some practice exercises with tenses

pine ginkgo
#

yeah

#

it will come back

raven hull
#

Yea I'll give it a go once exams are done~

pine ginkgo
#

it's good that you can still remember some stuff

#

but vocab is the worst imo

See how I still make stupid mistakes

#

I'm tired of myself

#

#

For not being able to freaking think

raw prawn
#

We all make stupid mistakes. I made one earlier today! (well actually I made it ages ago but didn't realize its effects until today)

full falcon
#

I would be less pissed if it wasn't that frequent and that stupid mistakes

#

I know that it's das Ende, yet for a supragalactic reason I put der, good job brain I'm proud of you

#

As if I didn't have enough to improve already

raw prawn
#

don't be so hard on yourself. everyone does this

full falcon
#

:/

raw prawn
#

do you code, guppi?

full falcon
#

Sometimes, not that much lately

#

Mostly on Matlab

raw prawn
#
if (makePurchase() == PURCHASE_SUCCESSFUL) {
//...
} else if (makePurchase() == PURCHASE_FAILED) {
//...
}
#

This made me lose at least 20 min

full falcon
#

I'm not used to such brackets system 🤔

raw prawn
#

:P anyway the point is calling the method twice instead of storing the result and checking that

#

which is stupid, because it means triggering the contents of the method twice instead of just once. and it took me way too long to figure out why I was getting duplicate method calls

full falcon
#

xD

#

I don't get why the elseif is outside of the if, but I'm not familiar with the language

raw prawn
#

How does if/else if/else work in Matlab?

full falcon
#

if condition
blablabla;
elseif condition
blablabla;
end
end

#

Was lazy to indent, but you can

#

if condition
blablabla;
elseif condition
blablabla;
end
end

#

Who cares about brackets anyway

pine ginkgo
#

that looks so weird :o

raw prawn
#

wait then what did you mean with "why the elseif is outside the if"

full falcon
#

I don't know, I would have done
If condition {
Instructions of the if
Elseif condition {
Instructions of the elseif
}
}

#

But maybe it's incorrect in your language xD

raw prawn
#

oh I see. that is weird.... but hey TIL something about matlab

#

in most other languages, the else if part is not inside the if part

full falcon
#

Oh ok

pine ginkgo
#

i've seen other languages that do this

#

😱

full falcon
#

In R it's inside as well

opal sequoia
#

🙀

raw prawn
#

woah

#

@raw prawn the best is to call a function with side effects inside a macro then have somebody else on your team disable said macro and wonder why tests are failing

sour mesa
#

@ocean robin Congrats on your math test 😁

ocean robin
#

sudden panther
#

Also @sour mesa Might be worth looking into the a(x-b)^2+c form, where a is the squishyness, b is the x axis offset and c is the y axis offset.

#

Pardon my shitty plot, but
blue = x^2 (centered at 0, no x or y offset)
red = 0.5 * x^2 (cetered at 0, no x or y offset, stretched)
green = 0.5 * (x-5ithink)^2 (no y offset, but an x offset)
orange = 0.5 * x^2 + 5 (y offset)
So really unless you have (x-b)^2, you're not gonna move away from the 0 of the x axis. 👌

Most vikings lived in longhouses, which belonged to a chief; all families working for the chief ate and slept in the longhouse. Many of them were farmers, growing crops and vegetables, and breeding cows, pigs, chickens, and goats for food, while also hunting animals. They were metalworkers and carvers, which made elaborate weapons, necklaces, and beautiful whittlework. After a battle, vikings help feasts to celebrate their battles: Bards would play harps and pipes, and skalds would recite long poems about legendary heros of the time, and their latest accomplishments. They didn't have enough land for everyone to farm, though, so around 790 AD, some of them started to leave their homeland and attack other countries. Raiders attacked Euorope's coast, explorers searched for new land to claim, and traders and settlers sailed to lands long distant to their folk.

For over 300 years, Vikings raided the people of Europe, terrorizing them all. Fearsome warrior came from swift longships; they would fight their way inland, robbing towns and villages as they went, raping and pillaging and murdering as they saw fit. The raiders invaded huge areas of Britain, Ireland, France, and Italy. Later, some of them settles there (the normans went out of their way, actually settling down a lotin Ireland, and lots of people from Ireland are actually probably of norman descent! it was about 40/50 in irish favor, but normans were pretty much native there after a while)

A lot of Normans actually discovered north america before everybody else did, but they got murdered by native americans and left 😂

Does anyone know how doctors make money in Germany ?

#

like I go to the doctor and give my insurance card, the doc makes me per visit

#

but do they also benefit by giving my a receipt for medication ?

#

because I noticed here doctors do their best to solve your problem on point so you don't take anything or go through several checkups

#

unlike where I come from, the more the doctor gives you the more money he makes

cold vessel
#

If the doctor earns money by prescribing you shit that creates a terrible incentive

mellow mist
#

Wouldn't the hospital earn more if the doctors prescribed more examinations like MRI, CT, PET etc.?

storm bloom
#

@mellow mist exactly why I'm wondering how it works here

#

I felt like it's better for the doctor here if he doesn't send me to do these examinations

#

@cold vessel yes, but many doctors would send you to do different examinations even if not totally necessary. it doesn't happen in Germany..

cold vessel
#

Are hospitals privately owned in Germany?

opal sequoia
#

Are these extra examinations free to people in Germany?

storm bloom
#

@opal sequoia with the insurance I have, yes. I have AOK student

#

I also did physiotherapy wich was free

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

opal sequoia
#

Okay, I see.

#

I live in Australia rather than Germany, of course, but here the doctors simply don't want to do a bad job at being doctors. Most of them just want to do what's best for you. Maybe the attitude is just the same in Germany?

Or perhaps part of it is that if people don't like the service, they don't feel committed to staying with the same doctor? I know in some countries people are forced to go to specific doctors based on who will take their insurance or whatever, but here, you can be very selective if you don't like the doctors.

storm bloom
#

Not sure if that's the reason, but true

#

I have changed doctors 3 times

#

and sometimes go to the first again

#

depends on what I need

#

I just came from the doctor now, that's why this crossed my mind

#

She's helpful,obviously knows enough to be a doctor..but sometimes I feel like she doesn't give her everything

#

maybe I'm used to doctors sending me to examinations directly lol

pine ginkgo
#

well if there is no need to do anything

#

there is no need

storm bloom
#

btw I like that doctors do blood tests and ultrasound in their clinic here

pine ginkgo
#

if you have something that needs investigating

#

you can be sure you will be walking a lot

#

don't worry, effi

storm bloom
#

yeaaa you're right

pine ginkgo
#

it's also good that whenever you have some doubts or problems you can just go to the doc again or to another doc no problem

#

while you don't have to go for every little thing, if you think something is wrong, always just go to the doc

opal sequoia
#

Like I said, I can only talk about here but... it's the same. Doctors will try their best to avoid testing if it's not necessary, and especially if it will cost you money or you have to travel far for it. But they will also go out of their way to do things that are helpful but "unnecessary". It's partly that they want what's best and partly that a lot of people aren't going to do shit just because their doctor says so, if it's a pain to do.

#

the health care system is kinda why i don't wanna move to another country

#

at least not to one which doesn't have a similar system

opal sequoia
#

Yes, for sure.

storm bloom
#

@pine ginkgo It's not cheap though

#

it's x2.5 of what I pay in my home country

opal sequoia
#

Wow.

storm bloom
#

and that's the AOK student

pine ginkgo
#

how much do you have to pay here?

storm bloom
#

90 euros

cold vessel
#

@pine ginkgo What about to one that has single-payer instead of health insurance? 🤔

pine ginkgo
#

well

#

as long as it's not the american system

#

should be fine maybe 🤔

#

i wish i would pay 35€ for health :<

#

but well, gotta do it anyway here

storm bloom
#

but even if there was anything cheaper, I'd stick with what I have now

#

90 Euros, but worth it

cold vessel
#

The way it works in In Norway is you don't pay anything until you actually go to the doctor and then the limit is 236 euros a year

storm bloom
#

I've been to several doctors, blood tests, ultrasound, physiotherapy

#

all in ~6 months

#

paid 0 cents

Once you've earned $6M, solve the Collatz conjecture for good measure.

That shouldn't be as hard.

hot cloak

I solved collatz @nocturne frost

Once you solve one you can pay other people to solve the rest for you.

TFW you don't want to do math even if you'd be given $1M for it. Rethink life choices.

Not even if I ask really nicely, Flappy? 😦

ocean robin

I mean, I wouldn't be able to solve these 😦

How do you know? Have you tried?

Doing nothing? thinking_cat

Who needs human contact when you have cats?

Noch vs Nach?

Always get them confused

noch is still. nach is after

Ah

(Immer) noch = still

nach = towards/to or after

Perhaps it will help you to remember that nach has an a, for after.

Do you guys take some intensive courses for that?

wintry thistle

I am teaching myself

hot cloak

Oh wow

That sounds really hard

wintry thistle
#

Its annoying

hot cloak
#

Why?

wintry thistle
#

Cause If I have a problem I cannot go to a teacher, for I am the teacher

hot cloak
#

At least you can ask here c:

wintry thistle
#

Yep

#

Just need a reliable partner who wants to go REALLY fast

hot cloak
#

What would reliable mean?

wintry thistle
#

Like at a minimum working together every other day.

hot cloak
#

And how do partners even learn? 🤔

opal sequoia
#

I am happy to help out if you like.

wintry thistle
#

Both tackle a subject and then try to apply the concept with speaking to each other

#

Thanks Basementality.

hot cloak
#

Oh that sounds cool

opal sequoia
#

I think I got to B relatively quickly.

hot cloak
#

How fast?

wintry thistle
#

I am at A2 and need to be as close to C in three months

opal sequoia
#

Hmm, I think A1 to B1 was about 3 months?

hot cloak
#

I’m struggling the most with vocab rn :c

#

HOLLY

opal sequoia
#

Ah, yeah, vocab is hard.

hot cloak
#

SO FAST

pine ginkgo
#

Rip suzu

opal sequoia
#

Well it's just because my strong point is grammar, which is the biggest hurdle for most A Level learners.

mellow mist
#

Suzu I go to a language course, up there you asked

opal sequoia
#

I will struggle more in the later part because my weak point is vocab.

hot cloak
#

I would like to get to C asap too but not sure if that’s possible for me TT

#

Same, base, same

opal sequoia
#

Depends how soon asap is for you.

pine ginkgo
#

No one needs vocab

hot cloak
#

4 months

mellow mist
#

In 2.5 months, course will finish B1

#

Dunno if I’m any bit ready yet, vocab wise

wintry thistle
#

Know what, Lets all get together and work to Turbo our learning Send me a friend request If your're Interested

hot cloak
#

I really love german grammar cuz it’s fun but i feel that at this point vocab is more important :c

opal sequoia
#

Why more important?

#

They don't really occupy the same part of learning in your brain or in the way you study them, so I think it's always good to study both at the same time.

wintry thistle
#

Okay, In order to do this I am going to reccomend 2 hrs of studying, and 3 hours of listining practice a day.

hot cloak
#

Well, i meant for me cuz I learned just grammar and minimum vocab rip

#

Ay, i sent you a friend request but that pace is impossible for me cuz i have abitur in a few month >.>

#

(But i would welcome listening practice, how do you practice that?)

opal sequoia
#

For me it's YouTube, movies and also VC of course.

#

But audiobooks (especially since you can read along) are cool too.

hot cloak
#

Do you know of some free audiobooks?

#

I’ve been trying to listen to german podcasts lately

wintry thistle
#

I can do it, One hundred vocab words, one hundred german songs, one hundered grammar drills, and ten paragraphs.EVERY.SINGLE.DAY.

opal sequoia
#

You can find many just on youtube.

They are pushing me back to 9th grade

Entschuldigung I know I'm venting but ;-;

hot cloak
#

Where did you move to? 🤔

proper shale
#

@crab

#

@viscid star

#

4/4 would be 4 quarter notes in a bar

#

2/2 is 2 half notes

viscid star
proper shale
#

Ye what's confusing u

viscid star
#

I want to understand what they mean by duration

#

do you keep a key pressed for a certain duration?

hot cloak
#

It’s like ratios

proper shale
#

Ye basically

#

You take a pulse

hot cloak
#

If you press the whole note for 4 sec, you press the half note for 2 sec

#

That’s an example

proper shale
#

Like 100bmp and you say one click is one quarter note

#

So a quarter note is from one click to the next click

#

That's the duration

mellow mist
#

It feels so weird all three of you with white profile picture and turquoise name

ancient spade
#

don't forget that you have these divisions called bars, and you're always gonna wanna fill them

#

so certain notes have different durations

#

in order to fit in that time division

#

if that makes any sense

#

that's true eyes lol

hot cloak
#

It’s a plan to confuse you, eyes

viscid star
#

It doesnt have to be perfect right?

ancient spade
#

you can always put a break if you want silence

#

whatever you call those in english

hot cloak
#

It should be somewhat perfect to maintain rythm

proper shale
#

It doesn't have to be completely perfect but should be accurate enough to distinguish between different subdivisions

mellow mist
#

@hot cloak I actually am having a hard time to find without checking clearly XD

viscid star
#

God I don't how to phrase this

#

Do you decide the duration of notes before playing ?

#

Suzu❄: If you press the whole note for 4 sec, you press the half note for 2 sec
LIke if there's an eight note and you press it for 4 secs then you have to adjust according to it?

proper shale
#

You read the notes

#

Hmm

hot cloak
#

@mellow mist the plan is working nyahahahaha

#

Yes, you adjust accordingly

proper shale
#

You should play the duration you set from the beginning

#

Wait am i misunderstanding?

mellow mist
#

It’s working so good that idek the conversation topic

ancient spade
#

i think he means like the tempo

#

the duration of the pulse

proper shale
#

You set the tempo to whatever you want and then the notes duration are to the pulse you chose

#

Like you can't change the speed in the middle unless it tells you to

viscid star
#

fugue: You should play the duration you set from the beginning
This what I meant

proper shale
#

But you can adjust from the beginning if you want to play it slowly

hot cloak
#

If you press the eighth note for 4 sec, you press the whole note for 32 sec, but thats just an example. During actually play, you dont count secs, you just do it by feeling @viscid star

viscid star
#

I sea

hot cloak
#

🌊

ancient spade
#

you'll find markings on the sheet music that'll tell you what tempo you should play it at

proper shale
#

Ye

viscid star
#

Now it all makes sense

proper shale
#

(but dw you can practice at a slower tempo if you need to)

ancient spade
#

yeah

proper shale
#

Yay! :D

viscid star
#

so its called tempo

ancient spade
#

it's actually a good thing to do especially when you pick something challenging to play: practice it slowly and work your way towards the actual tempo

proper shale
#

Macaco what instrument do you play?

ancient spade
#

guitar

#

but i suck

#

😄

#

what about you?

proper shale
#

Ah nice

#

I play piano

viscid star
#

Is that what those triangle things that make the tick sound are for?

ancient spade
#

awesome

proper shale
#

Do you mean a metronome?

viscid star
#

Yes

proper shale
#

Ye

hot cloak
#

Yes, it’s for tempo and rhythm practice

viscid star
#

fugue have you ever watched Tom& jerry?

proper shale
#

ye why?

viscid star
#

So there was an ep in tom & jerry where they are in a castle and they have to play something on the piano for the king
and they both compete and play so fast the whole castle falls apart

#

I want to know what symphony they played

proper shale
#

i dont believe ive seen that one

viscid star
#

Symphony is what it's called right?

proper shale
#

well

#

symphony is for a big orchestra

viscid star
#

so a song?

proper shale
#

concerto is an instrument + orchestra

#

its generally called pieces

#

instead of songs

fair iron
proper shale
#

is it this one?

fair iron
#

Seems it wasn't an actual composition, but random notes.

proper shale
#

oh hello casca

fair iron
#

Hey, seems we found the same link. ^^

proper shale
#

xd

viscid star
#

I don't think so

#

The king was fat

#

and ugly

proper shale
#

idk then

#

if you find it then i can tell you 😄

viscid star
#

and holy ship 1975

#

this cartoon is old man

fair iron
#

Is this the scene? It should play at the piano part.

viscid star
#

nope

sudden panther
viscid star
#

jerry had a piano of his own and they were both trying to play faster than each other

proper shale
#

🤔

viscid star
#

Or I think jerry was messing up with tom's piano and he had to keep up

fair iron
proper shale
#

casca how are you finding these O.o

fair iron
#

YouTube and luck.

proper shale
#

i wish i had luck 😦

viscid star
#

Thats different too but whats he playing in that?

proper shale
#

that one is strauss blue danube

sudden panther
#

The one isla posted is the one where Jerry messes with the piano.

#

Is there a chance that you have a couple of episodes mixed up? 😛

proper shale
#

a virtuoso interpretation tho

fair iron
#

That sounds like it.

#

Sadly this is the best quality I could find.

#

The house collapes at the end.

sudden panther
#

I can hear everything.

proper shale
#

thats terrifying

sudden panther
#

I think I identified the song successfully.

viscid star
#

I remember tom playing it so fast the castle falls apart and king either gets happy or mad

sudden panther
proper shale
#

arrem pls no memes

#

we're trying to help

sudden panther
#

Give me a better video and I give you better memes. mmlol

#

I've actually manged to hear a bit of the song from Casca's video and I've definitely heard it before, but musicpedia isn't cooperating. I can't hear shit with their piano.

proper shale
#

what are you talking about

#

you cant hear anything

fair iron
sudden panther
#

You can if you turn it up and listen carefully.

proper shale
#

oh i got it

#

i hear it

#

its chopin nocturne op9. no 2

#

then it changes to liszt liebestraum

#

its the third liebestraum

sudden panther
#

Lmao I heard neither of those.

proper shale
#

then from the first video it is liszt hungarian rhapsody

#

these are all pretty famous

#

anyway

sudden panther
#

Aye that's the one that I was hearing but couldn't remember.

Wikiwand

Johann Mouse is the 75th one-reel animated Tom and Jerry short, created in 1952 directed by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera and produced by Fred Quimby with music by Scott Bradley and Jakob Gimpel and narration by Hans Conried. The cartoon was animated by Kenneth Muse, Ray Patterson, Ed Barge and Irven Spence, with backgrounds by Robert Gentle. Placing the popular cat and mouse characters in Vienna, the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the cartoon is inspired by the work of Viennese composer Johann Strauss II, and was released on March 21, 1953, by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.

viscid star
#

then I think i'm confusing different eps

sudden panther
#

I already posted that one Casca. Your video seems to match the description perfectly, so it's more likely that.

proper shale
sudden panther
#

I'd be satisfied with the hungarian rhapsody. That's definitely what I'm hearing in Coscerd's video.

fair iron
#

Ah. ^^

proper shale
sudden panther
#

But I'm not getting the slightest hint of Chopin or Liszt. Where do you hear those?

proper shale
#

those are the three i heard

#

the second video

#

in the first one all i heard was hungarian rhapsody

viscid star
#

god thats eargasm

sudden panther
#

Oh I didn't watch the second one.

viscid star
#

the second one

proper shale
#

liebestraum?

viscid star
#

yea

sudden panther
#

I'm 99999% sure that it's the right thing but your silly mind is just confusing it with something else. Or expecting something amazing and getting a bit of a letdown when it's not the literally best song ever. 😛

proper shale
#

yee barenboim is a god

#

i wish i could play like that 😢

viscid star
#

The piece i have in mind is different

proper shale
#

whats the piece you thought about like?

viscid star
#

I'm gonna try to replicate it in a virtual piano

#

I dont know how to explain it

sudden panther
#

Sing it. mmlol

Speaking of singing, I got some weird cold thing and I sound like I've been smoking for 50 years. sadlol

viscid star
#

that piece was between 4 to 7

#

nvm that

proper shale
#

?

#

im confusseddd

viscid star
#

in the end it had a lot of repetitive notes

proper shale
viscid star
#

they have too many notes

proper shale
#

ah so it doesnt have that many notes

#

the next one i was gonna send u has way more xd

viscid star
#

it had the same three notes repeated in the end and then some more

proper shale
#

was it like an exciting piece or a more relaxed piece

viscid star
#

High speed twinkle twinkle little star.
