That is pretty cool. I always wanted to make a guitar from scratch, but that requires, you know, accuracy.

What the... was that a cutting board at some point? (;
Yes, sadly I'm probably better at photography than at playing the guitar (;
You've got me beat!
I always thought they'd be kind of fun, just because you know, LIGHTS.
Oh yeah! That's the one. I forgot what they were called!
Seriously? That's hilarious.
> I suppose you could play this, but you couldn't exactly play like Mark Knopfler.
Of that there is no doubt.
I don't think Mark Knopfler was selling the thing. It might've just been a "Hey look at this interesting new invention, and here's Mark Knopfler" kinda thing.
I remember seeing ads in Guitar Magazine and the like decades ago for guitars with LEDs in the fretboard that teach you how to play. I remember seeing an infomercial-type thing where they had Mark Knopfler play with one.
I find it fairly interesting how a lot of things labelled as the "first" to do something are really not.
Yes. Disable all 3rd party cookies, ask about the rest. "If you see this question and it's a website you KNOW, USE REGULARLY and need to be logged in to use, say YES. If it's a website you DON'T KNOW or TRUST, say NO. If you're NOT SURE, click "Allow for session".
I give them the tools. I will even give them notes. But I won't treat them like idiots without good cause!
It's a heck of a lot clunkier, so yeah, I'd prefer to be prompted every time. Especially since that's how I set it up for less technologically inclined people, and I can't really put them in charge of whitelisting stuff...
PLEASE let me have the options of deciding how long I want cookies saved for. Firefox has an "Ask me everytime" options for cookies - I want and need it. Chrome for some reason still doesn't have that (to the best of my knowledge - I check from time to time after updates).
Haven't been able to find any plugins that add that functionality, either.
I really want to switch to Chrome. It's so much zippier that Firefox. But not without my per-session cookie settings...
That's Catch-22. Catch-21 was a gameshow where people played blackjack.
You're on a plane. There's a decent chance you'll be in a country where they don't have juries.
