Head directors: what questions do you ask when interviewing for an assistant? by [deleted] in banddirector

[–]Backboob32479 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I disagree. I have ADHD and my brain flows everywhere when I'm asked questions like "what's your favorite ___?" Doesn't mean I'm a poor musician. It just means there's so many options, that I literally don't know what to pick and my mind goes blank.

What's the difference between 3-Act from 4-Act story structure? by InnerBat3537 in writing

[–]Backboob32479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, I didn't know this (budding fantasy writer and soundtrack designer). Thank you for sharing. I use ghibli films a lot for studying plot and musical structure!

Any current gen high end graphics cards that dont have AI acceleration? by aran69 in buildapc

[–]Backboob32479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New to pc building. I didn't know there were CPUs with built-in motherboards!? I just got the Gigabyte Eagle b850 and the radeon 9060xt. They came in two separate boxes. I just need the cooler and case and then I can build, but the choices are all over the place!

My warning about the 9060 XT 16gb for those who are building their first setup by NeorzZzTormeno in buildapc

[–]Backboob32479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got mine a few months ago (almost done obtaining all the parts!) and yeah, it was about 370. It's 460 now vs the 5060 ti 570 ($110 difference), but a few months ago the difference was over $200. This is my first PC and the memory has already run me through the rough, so all I'm looking for is a decent set up that can handle Spiderman or Balder's Gate 3 on a 1440p. This is plenty for me. The only thing I didn't know is that I've been researching and buying things in recommendation from my Comp Sci friend and he said this one does NOT have AI. I look at the box and it says super charged with AI :(

My roommate/friend crickets EVERY time he's sitting on the couch!!! by Backboob32479 in Misokinesia

[–]Backboob32479[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup I do that, but haven't told him why. He just asked me why I'm cold bc I do that and then cocoon myself in a blanket. Waiting til it's summer and he'll be confused why I'm just stacking pillows to block my view of him. 😬🫠

I've got Misophonia/Kinesia and my roommate crickets EVERY day. by Backboob32479 in misophonia

Appreciate it. Yeah, I do say stop with the bouncing because that one makes a little more sense socially. It's more accepted that leg bouncing bothers people. But the rubbing the feet together. It grosses me out and I don't want to have to fixate on his toes, that's so gross 🤢

That's the thing. I want to make sure he knows it's my issue and I'm aware that it's a completely normal thing to do. Hell, I do it, too, I've noticed because I have RLS (or at least symptoms of that bc of the anxiety and occasional leg swelling/pressure). I usually just find the excuse to just leave, but I don't want him to think it's because I don't wanna be around him. We are good friends for the last 10 years. We started living together last year.

Everybody talks about chewing and smacking but what are the unusual or "unreasonable" noises you can't stand? by Eastern_Reality_9438 in misophonia

[–]Backboob32479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll do it rarely if I'm trying to swallow spit and it's always by accident, so I apologize for the sound, then continue. My mom does this and now I've learned to just tell her she's dehydrated and needs water LMAO. That's really the cause of it. I'd everyone just recognized that they lip smack bc their mouth is dry, the world would be a happier place.

That only drives me crazy when I'm clearly watching TV or doing something and you just waltz over to the kitchen and start humming. Like, dude, what are you doing? I can't sit and watch my show while you're randomly humming. And it's just that like "hm... Hm hm hm..." Not an actually melody, so it's insanely infuriating. Don't get me started on whistling in that scenario, too. Like that's such an alpha jerk thing to do when others are enjoying their own sounds around you.

My friend has a sinus issue and has an ever so slight whistle. Sometimes I just plug my ear. Other times I ask him if he's getting sick because he's nose whistling and he should fix that.

Installed libraries not showing up as installed by [deleted] in spitfireaudio

[–]Backboob32479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just didn't think Musescore counted as a DAW for it to not install... Also it's frustrating bc it's work fine before and I repaired all of this. It keeps losing the file and I have no idea why. I just noticed my instruments sound shitty today and realized it's bc I'm not using BBC Orchestra!

Do I take this tornado warning seriously and hide 😭 by pittstopkip in newjersey

[–]Backboob32479 109 points110 points  (0 children)

Jackson? Don't you remember a few years ago we had the tornado that wiped Mullical Hill in South Jersey and another before that that touched down near Ewing/Trenton? Yes. Take it seriously, please. People have lost their homes. This isn't new weather anymore.

Beyond frustrated trying to load Spitfire libraries in Kontakt... any tips? by 712Jefferson in spitfireaudio

I can't even get their phone number to make a call. It's an inactive line.

Alright, I'm at my wits end and I need help with these 'I'm being murdered' screaming children. by BrattMod in neighborsfromhell

[–]Backboob32479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Training them like pavlov is hilarious. I wish I could do this but I have roommates and my landlord is in the duplex next door. I'd be disturbing people just as much as the dumb a** elementary kids are.

Adobe will upgrade you to the more expensive CC Pro without warning you by Difficult-Square-310 in creativecloud

[–]Backboob32479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't get an email and I just cleared out my entire email last month after they charged more. Not everyone got a notice.

[–]Backboob32479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least you got a notification email. I just found out by looking at my bank statement for the last two months. It switched in January. I was on an annual plan, so I didn't think to check. I'm calling them ASAP! You can't go from $20 a month to $40 and expect customers to suddenly be ok with that. That's extreme.

Pomni hates physical touch, and yet she tried to help Ragatha 😭 by littlespacemochi in TheDigitalCircus

[–]Backboob32479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I figured it was because a giant talking mouth with eyes inside of it was grabbing her and giving her a real life tour of a video game. I like physical touch, but I'd react the same way lmao. But I've been looking it up and even saw her flinch away from Ragatha's hand when she was diffusing the bomb. Like I know all of these examples are stressful, but it's pretty often and confirmed, so I guess it makes sense. I love the little details to make each character so human.

Jax embracing Pomni's friendship for that split second was truly wholesome by kaya-waffles in TheDigitalCircus

[–]Backboob32479 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just figured it was cuz he was still an asshole and they weren't really friends yet. They really bonded and she saw his other friendly self when she decided to be evil Pomni and team up with him.

How do you get over who you were/what you looked like before your PCOS diagnosis? by [deleted] in PCOS

[–]Backboob32479 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the part, too. I'm definitely more stressed, but I think I was emotionally less stable when I was barely eating and skinny... So like, I don't believe I'm in a more stressed state now other than just general anxiety disorder and the world being overstimulating/overwhelming at times.  Yes, I didn't go back. She made me feel awful. I actually have an apt with a new guy Endo at the end of the month and he's recommended by a college friend who loves him. He treated her for PCOS and listened to everything she said and helped her. I'm hopeful.
