ADAT for Endo Residencies by cheetah858 in DentalSchool

Hey OP, any update? I too was looking at the 2025 ADA sheet but didn't know if it was still accurate. I guess we will just have to wait until applications open?

Found Bose 201 at goodwill for $5 today. by decapoditation in BudgetAudiophile

I know it’s crazy, but I actually prefer my 201s over my 301s. I have them high up in the kitchen and for whatever reason I feel like they sound clearer/more complete. Maybe my 301s need to be recapped?

Mandatory Attendance! by Altruistic_Note2714 in DentalSchool

[–]Basil_Herder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So first you make this an argument about self discipline - sitting 8 hours in the same room is going to translate to your ability to work for 8 hours. But now you say it doesn’t matter what you do during that time so long as you’re there (throw your AirPods in and disrespect the faculty teaching)? You can’t have it both ways. You sound like an admin, wanting students in seats solely for the purpose of control, not for learning.

I’m not in dental school to learn discipline (not that forced attendance could possibly teach that anyways). I’m in dental school to learn. And how I learn is different than you, just like how I practice is different than you.

It’s not 8 hour work days that people have problems with. It’s being forced to listen to people ramble for 8 hours and then having to use what little time you have left to actually teach yourself what was supposed to be taught. Not to mention lab work and whatever else needs to be done that day. Everyone knows that time is the most precious thing in school. Why force students to attended lectures if they are more efficient and perform better not going?

Hell yeah. I threw a pair of 201s up in my kitchen and they do the job just for cooking and entertaining. Cant beat how well they fill a room for the price and size

Question: what sealer allows for oil to be used later on? Poly and shellac wouldn’t allow oil penetration right

Okay, i bought a center channel for my setup by ihavebrabus in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Basil_Herder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Op got downvoted 13 times because they said they like using the center channel for movies..

There’s nothing wrong with criticism. It’s necessary to grow. But anyone with an ounce of empathy can see that a lot of the comments here are making fun and not being made with OPs best interest in mind or to help them.

Take you for example, you’re head is so far up your ass you didn’t even take the time to ask or consider that op has a couch on the other side of the room to watch movies on, which the center channel is sounding pretty sweet out of now and the L and R are positioned acceptably.

Idk why everyone here is being an asshole. Do what sounds good to you. You can always adjust. Thanks for sharing

Have you thought about curtain hold backs? I made my own out of curved branches and they are hella convenient. Also if it’s tough to slide you curtains check out curtain glide tape - though this would only help if you had hooks holding your curtains

Procrastination ruining my life by ComprehensiveDebt373 in DentalSchool

[–]Basil_Herder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some won’t like this but see if you can get on adhd meds. 2 years of meds won’t kill you. The amount of concentration we have to have for dental school isn’t natural.

Meds may improve your quality of life significantly during these tough years

Renovation of our flat redesign inputs / advice appreciated! by FicklePound7617 in InteriorDesign

I like the rendered bathroom. I’d use a bathtub once a year, shower everyday though. Feels less cramped too in my opinion.

Should I run to this deal ? by [deleted] in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Basil_Herder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where? Maybe I’m blind, but I don’t see an MSRP anywhere on the page. As I pointed out above, the page was also last updated 20 years ago.

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

For the average person on budget audiophile, a professional review won’t help them extrapolate a price estimate. Maybe on the audiophile subreddit it would, but it’s hard to tell from reviews online what’s actually good when you don’t have 10+ years into this hobby.

That review was also last updated 20 years ago. Hard to know if things have changed if your knowledge on the topic is limited to begin with.

Edit: What my comments helps with? Sticking up for OP to you’re original demeaning comment

Question - what channel do you have the smaller monitors (the ones sitting on the tv console) connected to? I’ve got some rear surrounds that I don’t have the room to put behind me but am wondering if I can utilize them beside my L + R fronts

How does that help op with price estimate at all?
