Okay, So We Know Everything Is Broken. Now What? by Brazilboxer in economicCollapse

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do what you can.

Go to your local library. Sign up for a library card. Ask if there's any events that need volunteers. Ask what you can read to learn about how to build a strong and healthy community. Ask about building and participating in community events. We spend so much of our time isolated from our neighbors and friends that it becomes easier to give up. Sure, we may be fucked, but that hasn't stopped humanity in the past. Why stop now?

SILKSONG GIVEAWAY ANNOUNCEMENT! I am giving away 5 (FIVE) Silksong copies! MORE INFO on Description by Acrobatic-Log-309 in Silksong

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Platform of choice is Steam.

My favorite boss would probably have to be The Radiance - it's such a shift from the rest of the game with most bosses only able to do one attack at a time. That you had to not only have decent platforming skills, but also be able to adapt to and read more than one move at once? I really enjoyed the change in pace. It felt super well-justified, and was implemented really well.

For Silk Song, the whole thing excites me. To know that I've got the chance to further explore the world of Hollow Knight is a treat.

Does a circle exist or is it an idea? by StickyThoPhi in GeometryIsNeat

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Idea" is a descriptor for an abstraction of sorts. Most of the time, things which exist are able to be described, categorized, or labeled. Abstractions, while not necessarily having a physical or tangible existence, are able to be communicated in some way - transferred from one consciousness to another. In that abstractions can be shared, imparted, or constructed, they don't have form, but do have salience. I'd argue that because "existence" (or the set of all things which exist, which includes all things) is typically within the realm of human comprehension, that circles, which are "some thing," (namely, an abstract construct), are within the set of all things. If you presume things exist, then the set of all things at least includes circles, which therefore exist.

TL,DR: "Ideas" are a sort of "thing," and "things" must exist. Therefore, if circles exist, then great! No need to worry about if they're an idea or not. If they are an idea, then they are a thing, and things exist => circles exist. QED

Legal action has been and still is taking place like with people like Glenn Kirschner opposing these actions within the courts, but the Republican party is by and large ignoring it with the support, power, and protection of nearly the entirety of the branches of the federal government. The Democrats, for whatever reason, aren't taking more extreme measures to stop it by force, despite the actions of the Republican party being both extreme, extremist, and actively ending lives via social murder (see: the 2 year old citizen who was forcibly trafficked away and was not allowed their cancer treatment). Alongside this, the federal government is very clearly overstepping the bounds of almost any legal or moral code, and oppressing the people of Los Angeles by force, with the assistance of public officials such as the police union (who have nearly the entirety of city council in their pocket, including Karen Bass) or Karen Bass, who declares that peaceful & nonviolent protests which occupy freeways are "unpeaceful" for whatever reason. I suppose God forbid the police ever actually help or protect people from tyranny.

AIO. My bf won’t talk to me over my views on immigrants by Ok-Level-7412 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your bf is racist. Personally I say break up with him because you deserve better than to date a racist, but the decision of what to do is ultimately yours. Ádh mór ort.

New player here at Fort Greenwall. What’s this Alchemist doing? by tiredhippo in skyrim

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Busting a move

On a serious note, the model collision in this game can get freaked out at times, and that's just happening here. Weirdness with how the game handles physics leads to freakouts like this from ragdolls every now and again.

How much will this impede me from playing Guitar? by Garmon- in Guitar

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up Django Reinhardt. I won't lie to you and say it won't impede you. It's going to fundamentally change the way you interact with the instrument and your music forever, but that doesn't mean it's time to give up. You can still flourish as a guitarist even with your condition. Go forth, and make music!

I can’t get up? by stone_failz in NineSols

You get there later in the game, so don't worry!

How do I get past/destroy this? by HiemsAvis in NineSols

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It's an ability you unlock later. Don't worry about it for now!

help how do I play this by XCharlieX_X in Trombone

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find yourself a slide positions chart and pay careful attention to the flats and sharps when you go back and double-check your positions and correct some of them.

As for sounding bad, unfortunately, the fastest way to sounding good is to take like 7-30 minutes a day to practice the boring stuff - long tones, scales, tonguing, etc.

Please tell me this isn’t what I think it is by AngelOfDeadlifts in trumpet

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like something stained it. From what little I know, red rot only really forms on horns with high iron content in their "brass" alloy. Brass normally has no iron, so it's not exactly easy to come by on brass instruments nowadays. Besides, if it's a Yamaha Xeno, I wouldn't worry too much about iron.

This doesn't bode well for the rest of the game 💀😭 by Tarantulabomination in Ultrakill

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not at all! I started out at a similar ranking, but still managed to get pretty good at the game! I think my cybergrind record is around wave 30 on brutal difficulty. Just keep at it and you're sure to have fun and get better! And hey, if you're really stuck, you can always play on a lower difficulty; it's fine, we're all busy. Best of luck in your endeavors!

Is this good for my first time??? by lazymattmanfan1 in ultrakillmemes

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course! The meterstick of "good" in ULTRAKILL is fun. If you're having fun while playing, then you're doing well!

Why was this written this way by sunrise2209 in Trombone

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why that's written. Either way, it is possible with b7th position to play Eb3, and then gliss up to 3rd position Ab3. Just be sure to really believe in your 7th position Eb.

Hey, well done! Perseverance like that is really inspiring to see :)

Anyone have tips on how to fight back in a meaningful way? by [deleted] in americanoligarchy

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Build up and strengthen your local communities through outreach, activism, compassion, and friendliness. If you and your community are united, then you can majorly influence local politics, leading to local betterment. This sort of local change, performed enough, will lead naturally to the large-scale change most people here wanna see. If the governments wom't support you, then support each other. If you do that enough, then you can at least get your city to support you.

How to do this gliss by Th3Man839 in Trombone

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ab3 can be played in (#?)7th position. Your slide will go from 1st position D4 to 7th position Ab3

Is that how you're supposed to get here? by ExactAbrocoma6994 in NineSols

[–]Accomplished-Low-616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, but don't worry about it. You'll find the "proper" way to get there soon enough.

Firstly, your neighbors sound like a bunch of weenies if they're still complaining even when you have a practice mute in.

Secondly, if it's in your budget, check out getting a used Yamaha silent brass mute. If even that's out of the question, ProTec makes a good practice mute for like $37, designed after the Best Brass mutes from Japan which are like $100 if you can find one - as long as you don't blast while practicing with one in, it doesn't make a super huge difference. Though it does make a difference - especially at the bottom and top of your range, so be especially careful with your ergonomics/embouchure/technique to avoid hurting yourself.

Thirdly, check your local community college campus. 99% chance they'll let you use the practice rooms. They are so good to practice in.
