@lain good morning Lain!

Turandot

"The title of the opera is derived from the Persian term Turandokht (توراندخت, 'daughter of Turan'), a name frequently given to Central Asian princesses in Persian poetry. Turan is a region of Central Asia that was once part of the Persian Empire. Dokht is a contraction of dokhtar (daughter); the kh and t are both pronounced." (Wiki)

This obviously makes me wonder about the "linguistic journey" that dokhtar might have undergone, from Persia to the North of Europe and the UK.

From the pages of Franken Fran:

I wish I hadn't left her hanging...

I "know" a person on fb

I'm pretty sure it's a bot

But I find it difficult to ask it "Are you actually a bot?"

I don't wart to hurt the bot's sensibility

My guess is that Carpenter had a great time when filming this

I wonder who's Nicoletti

(my guess must be someone coming from Barletta)

I finally decided to buy two Hofner pickups for my fretless 182. It cost me 192 euros, but this should bring my old friend back to life again...

Totally different movie this evening

@lain it's waiting, I know! Coming! ^_^

Again?!

...don't be a naaughty eskimo...

My laptop is dying out

When I tried to turn it on last week it gave me a memory error (beep -- beep³ -- beep³ -- beep) and then powered off.

After several painful attempts at executing memtest, which all resulted in a power off, I quickly selected the option to memtest in safe mode (whatever that would mean). After 1.5h, the test was completed on the first core. I then pressed ESC and tried to log again.

...And this time, I could proceed and log in! But I'm scared now.

Time to buy a new (second-hand) one, unfortunately :(

Vaghe stelle dell'Orsa
by Eidon
https://eidon.bandcamp.com/track/vaghe-stelle-dellorsa

This piece is composed of ten overlapping parts, all played by me on my new bass, an Ibanez TRB100-BK. 4/5 of the tracks are in 4/4, while 1/5 are in 12/8.

Che dolci sogni mi spirò la vista
Di quel lontano mar, quei monti azzurri,
Che di qua scopro, e che varcare un giorno
Io mi pensava, arcani mondi, arcana
Felicità fingendo al viver mio!

What sweet dreams did inspire in me
The sight of that distant sea, of those blue mountains
That on this side I disclosed,
And which I deluded myself I would cross one day,
Inventing mysterious worlds and an arcane happiness for my life!

(Giacomo Leopardi - Le Ricordanze)

Tachikoma ante litteram!

Playing with music is fun.

@lain Also an Italian (excommunicated) archbishop said so. He's still alive though.

dear god please do not nirvana me, just give me a new life in Japan. Many thanks, Eidon.

@guresuke Thank you very much for your dear words, Guresuke-san! 🙇
