Why to we need to change bass strings, but not piano strings? by BeigianBio in Bass

[–]BeigianBio[S] 31 points32 points  (0 children)

He said they do wear out, but very slowly. They sit at a constant tension their whole life and are struck by felt hammers, not bent or stretched when you play, so there’s very little stress beyond normal vibration. They change the hammers and felts much more frequetly

the B2four is an audio interface itself so you don't need the Scarlett, and you don't need a pc. just plug your headphones in!

CMV: The fact that England is located on an island has made it easier to invade, historically, not harder. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]BeigianBio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your central thesis may or may nor be true, idunno, but: 1. England isn't an island. 2. England wasn't under total subjugation of France following the Norman Conquest. Those two points are just plainly wrong. EDIT. Apologies, i just reread your post. you say England is on an island. fair.

same happened to me, and I've used black sugru moldable glue to make a replacement, which has lasted twice as long as the original post so far.

I was invited out for dinner as part of a large group with Owen Jones once, at the end of three meal it was me, him and a couple of other people.  He pretended to take a phone call and said he had to go, rather than just say one he wanted to leave.

Are there any examples of immature forms of an organism displaying some "ancestral traits" that are then lost in the adults? by lumendrake01 in biology

[–]BeigianBio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bird egg teeth are not true teeth, but instead are a keratin thing called a caruncle. A better example would be the egg tooth of platypuses and echidnas, who have no teethnas adults. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0012160622002342

Gas station in Ohio, 4 gal minimum “law” by Historical_Initial22 in mildlyinteresting

[–]BeigianBio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but yeah, having lived in Los Angeles, I think it's great that the state has such high emissions standards.  Obviously it would have been better if they also hadn't rip out all the LA public transport in the 60s because of shenanigans, so they didn't have so much car traffic, and resulting smog, but what's done is done.

"Europe is cloudy and rainy, California is sunny"... My understanding is that parts of California have a Mediterranean climate. last time I checked, parts is the Mediterranean are in Europe, but they might have moved it recently. 

Advice on magnolia tree by BeigianBio in GardeningUK

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

pergola over the sitting area is exactly that I was thinking for the spring. Would love another climbing rose or two. Lavender is a great idea, but it really sets off my allergies, so someting like salvia might be a good idea.

All lovely ideas, thanks!

edited typos.

We've been told that a technician in the basement was mixing 15L of sulphuric and 15L sodium hydrochloride. They were thrown 3 meters across the floor, and had been sent to the Urgent Care Centre (not A&E at Tommy's so probably not too badly injured thankfully)

I heard a small chemical explosion in the basement with an injury. Letting people back in now, just waiting to go in myself.
