I just lose all respect for their intellect. They might still be shrewd, but they aren't likely smart unless it's a ruse.

Okular is the best I've found

But copyright being muzzled so humans can reach their full potential is right out

I have a Helix LT. Works great. If I was buying something right now, I'd get a Quad Cortex.

If you're looking for free stuff, I'd try out the open source AI-based amp sim. I played around with it and it sounds fantastic.

Some people are driven primarily by ambition, it's not unheard of for a newbie to bite off much much more than they can chew. Depends on their humility

The first one was great, the third one was good. The 6th one was funny-bad and the final one was OK.

I wasn't trying to call you out specifically, just that there are people who hate on tabs in general. If anything I'm agreeing with your rant against snobbery too

Being skilled at a game has little bearing on your intelligence beyond maybe "above average". Intelligence is often best reflected in learning speed.

This is an interesting bit of snobbery too.

I've been a musician for over 25 years. I can read sheet music, tabs, chord charts (including Jazz), and learn most stuff by ear. I still use tabs to learn new songs because it gives an idea of the fingerings, even if it's just a starting point. Tabs are a specific arrangement of a given piece that at least one person found to be playable. It cuts out unnecessary time considering "how" to play something.

If you gave me sheet music, I would come up with an arrangement and annotate it with tabs to specify.

It's important to develop your ear, don't get me wrong, but tabs are a useful tool even for professionals. They're not just for beginners.

Yep, but a 54KWh, 400V platform fast-charge-capable plug-in hybrid is still noteworthy

 
 

It's based on episode 4 of Mobile Suit Gundam. I'm making a concept album that covers the key events of the show/movie trilogy. Volume I, covering the first third, is complete.
