I started playing diatomic harmonica, recently. I've been following some YouTube how-to videos, feels like a nice start. Now I'm looking for some easy blues harmonica sheet music ... I don't mind paying for something, although free is nice too ... but web searches are only displaying cheap online courses. Can anyone recommend a book or website?

I can read harmonica tab.

Santiago (Chile) (AFP) – Two Mexicans died and seven people went missing when a blizzard hit the Patagonian Torres del Paine nature reserve, Chile's most visited foreign tourist spot, authorities said Tuesday.

The visitors were caught off guard Monday while exploring the park famed for its granite peaks, glaciers and wildlife -- some about 2,800 kilometers (1,740 miles) south of Chile's capital Santiago.

"There are two deceased individuals and seven people whose whereabouts are unknown. Our work is now focused entirely on search and rescue efforts," Jose Antonio Ruiz, a regional government official, told reporters.

The nationalities of the missing individuals were unknown.

Soldiers and police have joined the search effort in the park designated a biosphere reserve by UNESCO in 1978.

In 2023, more than 360,000 tourists visited the reserve and its hiking trails, according to the latest available figures from the Conaf national forestry body.

The weather forecast for Torres del Paine these days is for sleet and strong winds, which diminishes visibility for hikers who may stray from the park's dedicated trails as a result, Juan Carlos Andrades of the Senapred emergency response unit told AFP.

In Oklahoma, the requirement usually is up to “algebra 2” - this is mostly domain and range, finding roots of polynomials, and logarithms.

IMHO, the world would be better if calculus was a required part of the high school curriculum. Like yeah, most people aren’t going to need the product rule in day to day life, but the fundamental ideas about rates of change seem like they’re something that everyone human deserves to be exposed to.

Original title (ES): Un Poeta (A Poet)

Oscar Restrepo’s obsession with poetry brought him no glory. Aging and erratic, he has succumbed to the cliché of the poet in the shadows. Meeting Yurlady, a teenage girl from humble roots, and helping her cultivate her talent brings some light to his days, but dragging her into the world of poets may not be the way

They can probably set up a printer faster, but look elsewhere for cryptography advice Gen Z can get off their digital high horses because their passwords are no more secure than their grandparents'.…

Guinea pigs are a common part of Peruvian diet.

So I was looking for this file and a guy found it and sent me a link. There were two download options, both full of ads. I managed to download from the second link, but what really baffled me was the first one: TeraBox.

First thing, I couldn't find any way to download the file. This crap actually wanted me to download a .exe to install their software so I could download the file from the internet, so obviously I said fuck it and tried the second link instead.

Then I told the guy who gave me the link that TeraBox was sketchy as fuck and I hoped he wasn’t actually using it, and went to search for more info about TeraBox. Apparently the program is full of ads, and wherever you click it tries to make you upgrade to premium and throws more ads at you. Its bandwidth is complete crap, but hey, it gives you 1TB of free cloud storage, yay!

TeraBox was created by Baidu using a subsidiary in Japan, later they changed the name and the name of the Japanese company as well to try not to look affiliated with Baidu.

Anyone here old enough to remember hao123, their browser hijacker that would fuck up you registry and shit just to reinstall itself through Windows Services after being uninstalled, already knows Baidu is pure cancer, and it’s hilarious if you check videos of people testing their antivirus - that manages to be more of a malware itself than McAfee. This Chinese-Google ethics make Google itself look like Mullvad, and they want you to download and install their .exe just so you can download files from the web lol

Yeah, that guy I mentioned was using TeraBox and thinking it was great, and apparently a whole lot of people do. 1TB free \o/ (although, looking at Reddit and Play Store - where it has 100m+ downloads - everyone complains files don't sync, they disappear, even after buying premium they still see ads and the speed is still crap, they don't reward whatever bonuses they promise, and support is nonexistent... so shit doesn't even work properly...)

I'm all for making tons of accounts to use Google Drive/Mega/Dropbox/etc to distribute files, even if they have crappy privacy practices, you don’t need to share any real information with them anyway: use a VPN and a secure browser to create your account with a disposable email and that’s it, whatever info they gathered doesn’t matter, let them host stuff for you at their expenses... but TeraBox? Ouch, that's insanity.
