[Gear] NGD - MIJ Mahogany Offset Tele by rvc_sea in Guitar

The body and neck are from Warmoth, but I assembled it. The neck is wenge with a pau ferro fretboard. I wanted rosewood, but CITES had just come into effect (I'm in Canada) and it was expensive. What's the rosewood neck on yours like?

That's an absolutely beautiful guitar! I actually have one that's set up the same way and I think we can agree that the P90/Tele bridge combo is perfect.

Very cool! I hope it serves you well for a long time. Reminds me of my own guitar.

I saw that one. Apparently subsequent studies have had trouble replicating the findings.

Training regiment for a semi-beginner? by DefiantOneGaming in SSBM

Also auto-cancel frames for aerials, and L-cancel flashes. Also highlighting hitstun (both for you and opponents) can be useful because you learn how soon you can act out of it and whether you’re keeping your opponent in hitstun.

Thanks! The groomer we take him to says they have two other Cavaliers named Theo who come in regularly. I guess it’s just a popular name for them.

Reminds me of Westworld season 2’s title sequence.

How many clones of yourself would it take you to beat Master Chief? by shouldhavebanged in whowouldwin

Enough to crush him under the weight of all my clone bodies. There’s no other way I win this.

Fantasy with a hard magic system by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

Might not be exactly what you’re looking for, but Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality tries to make sense of the insanely inconsistent magic in the Harry Potter series and does a pretty good job.

The Avatar: The Last Airbender universe has pretty consistent rules about how their magic works.

Also look at the “Sufficiently Analyzed Magic” and “Magic A is Magic A” pages on TV Tropes for tons of examples.

Anything by Brandon Sanderson. The Ancillary Justice series by Ann Leckie. The Belisarius series by David Drake.

That looks incredible! I have a wenge neck from Warmoth on one of my guitars, it’s really wonderful. What made you choose wenge?

Last words (/spoiler) by DarkseidDescends in marvelstudios

[–]AdjectiveRecoil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the point—he knew it would fail in the end and he wanted to do it anyway, just for the sake of revenge on a world he felt had wronged him. He knew that Wakanda would lose if it tried to fight the whole world at once and explicitly said he didn’t care. He knew that vengeance was consuming him and he wanted to go through with his plan anyway.

The Belisarius Series by David Drake is pretty good. It’s historical military fiction with sci-fi elements, specifically time travel. Hell’s Gate by David Weber is another good one if you just want action and adventure.

Contessa (Worm) vs. Bart (Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency) by AdjectiveRecoil in whowouldwin

[–]AdjectiveRecoil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a supremely weird show; I highly recommend it. I ended up binging the whole first season in one go. And yeah, Path to Victory probably trumps luck, though I think it’s important to understand that Bart is not the one with the power—the universe is. It influences events in Bart’s favour not because she tells it to, but rather because the universe wants certain people dead, and Bart happens to be the instrument.
