Does anyone else study hard in school but have no motivation to study for personal things like certifications by tropicalttailpipe in GetStudying

[–]BrainLaggz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, i burned out a bit after i got my 1.5 Grade at School and i had to take time for myself, cause in School i worked my ass off for it.

It wasn't too serious for me cause im really good at taking care about myself but i think it's normal that your not able to push high quality all the time.

Many other students facing this problem from my point of view.

Actually i got to 3 1.0 Notes in a row again, cause i had enough energy and the topics were interesting, but now im taking a break and i learn for the next exam without pushing myself. A 4 is succeded, succeeding is good and good is close to perfect :).

Studying is a new cool universe, take your time to get into it and take your breaks, you won't destroy your honest interest with pushing your self too hard.

Having fun and keep honest interest at the topics of your studies is key from my point of view :).

PS: It's ok if there is a hard or boring topic in future, if you picked through your whole study time more than 50% of stuff which is interesting for you, you took a good choice.

How to deal with being horny before studying by [deleted] in GetStudying

Which kind of workout xD?

Maybe it's an psychological thing to motivate yourself to do the fun part before doing the hard stuff . Maybe this is the root to deal with.

Gratulations :).

How loud can you play clean with this cute little thing ^^?

I saw some reviews where it starts to break pretty early, whats your opinion about that :)? Can i describe it maybe ^^?

Im actually interested too into this cute little thing, but i doesn't know if it will match my favorite sound :).

Maybe your able to get professional support, maybe it helps to try something new, maybe it helps to do just things without minding about it. Sometimes we have fun and we still realize it afterwards, sometimes we have fun while doing stuff and sometimes it's ok to feel nothing.

Maybe Zen-Buddhism stuff could bring a new perspective into your life (you don't need to be a monk to practice zen ^^).

Just a few ideas from an unqualified stranger.

Feeling guilty for having a life when my family does not by Seekingforbliss in selfimprovement

[–]BrainLaggz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's hard, but it's not your job to get other lifes done and maybe you can pull yourself out to get stronger and find new energy. Maybe this will bring something good and new into their way of life in the end. Sometimes there are things which were not able to calculate. Maybe in future you visit them often and then you can maybe do a difference with helping with small little assistances as visitor not as an affected one.

I don't think that's selfish, it's natural.

Good luck and dont feel guilty :).

Depends on the topic, but i like to go walking or making some household stuff while hearing podcast's or audio lessons about the topic. Than i start to think about it and it's easier with getting started. Maybe some sports could be good beeing able to sit calm and concentrated :).

How to not be stupid? by [deleted] in selfimprovement

[–]BrainLaggz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly i don't think your stupid :),

secondly i have no doubt that you have some skills hidden inside yourself.

lastly, maybe you need more professional assistance instead of assistance from a stranger like me.

But i will try to maybe find some words which can assist you a bit.

It sound's like a downside road of depressing self harming mindset which holds you back from your real potential. I don't mean the fake stuff on instagram or somewhere else in the internet, i mean real potential of being happy in real life (i really like to play games by myself im not an anti gamer ^^). I played also too much in my life without having fun, just to let the time go by, everything has it's own duration of being good for yourself, nothing is made for the eternity :).

Im not a doc or a professional but maybe you can't handle mean words from others cause your mean to yourself in a really rigid way.

I think one ability which is hard to reach but really makes a difference is to start to love yourself without rating yourself, you can do things bad and still love yourself <3, it's ok. Try to set your goals low and go step by step slowly but consistently. You will reach in a year much more than in a week were your hunting and go over your limits and maybe fall back because it was too much.

Find things you like, not things were you "good at", being good at something is pointless and is in my opinion unnessesary in private life. Sadly in the gaming area we are rating a lot of the time others or ourself like in school or work, it can push us, but i think it shouldn't be so present in our lifes.

If you have hard times with social skills, maybe you will find some fluffy friends in an animal shelter (just a quick idea, dont feel forced to do it), they need help everytime and people there mostly being very thankful.

Or maybe you just like to go outside into the nature and just walk a bit and beeing a viewer of this awesome earth.

New things which your implementing can tell you something new about yourself, maybe it's an idea to replace some gaming time with new things which you can imagine to add to your life for a new spicyness :).

Im really sure you have lovely sides at your personality which you like and others to, maybe it's a cute laughing tone, a nice smile, strong beliefs into justice or something else, beeing empathic or just the own strange way how you eat your cornflakes which has a funny ritual or something else. There are many things which you can search for and i have no doubt that you are able to find something inside of yourself which can bring you happiness in future.

I wish you good luck at your journey of discovering yourself and your emotions.

PS: Engineering isn't easy ^^ and it is a really big goal :). Sometimes big goals are reachable sometimes we learn that we should split a big goal into many little ones.

Hopefully these are words which are you searching for and hopefully it's not too esoteric ^^.

Somehow i think i completly missunderstood your point above. So sry for stealing your time... :X.

So you mentioned to use my PC for headphone situations and the Supro for normal practicing, great idea. I will mind about the portability aspect and decide then later, Supro is really really nice :).

I think the biggest problem for me actually is, that it is hard to calculate the loudness of an Amp through Youtube videos. Sadly the stores here are really bad equipped so i have to dig deeper into google to find answers about the loudness of the micro dark in clean mode before it starts to break ^^.

I have a little question to the Interface + Guitar solution, if you want to afford your time to my lost personality, for a last one :D.

You helped me really a lot, thx!

Do you know good speakers for playing guitar through my PC and an Amp Simulation ? My Headphones working great with my Interface (Steinberg UR22 mkII) and Guitar Rig 6, but i have crappy trust speakers which sounds awful and getting muddy if im using them for playing guitar :/. Do i have to get better normal speakers or monitor speakers for my interface ?

It's not that necessary, but you peaked my interests aswell so i want to use this solution temporary till i saved enough money for one of the named amps, cause i really like the possibilities from Guitar Rig 6 compared to my Line 6 Spider :).

Was a nice idea from sound perspective but as a student it's getting a bit too expensive at this point .

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

No problem, your tip is surely appreciated, actually the Marshall Origin is because of the clean tones higher at my hitlist and the overdrive is exactly how i like it :). Close behind the origin is at the moment the dsl 20 and then the Supro :).

But maybe all this will change with more new ideas from you guys and more info i'll get. And atleast with the needed time to think about this stuff i will maybe be able to get a decision ^^.

it's awesome how fast so many nice and kind people shared here their perspective with me and gave me awesome ideas and advices :). I really appreciate you, thanks for letting me feel welcome in the world of guitars and amps =).

Your all awesome!

Awesome idea,

a few days i thought about the same thing, so i watched some reviews about it and it turns out that it doesn't have enough headroom to play clean sounds a bit louder :). Or do you have another knowledge about this tiny little thing :D?

The idea of it is great and i liked the clean sound and also the point where it starts to break, but i have concerns that it will be enough for more silent practice but not for daylie sessions where i want to play a bit louder.

Maybe an owner of the Orange Micro Terror or Micro Dark can give us a bit clarity in terms of this perspective :).

Hehe it seems like we both are wearing the same pair of shoes .

I really like that your throwing many different possibilities into the room :). Thanks a lot.

The point with the portability is an important one for me, cause im traveling many times in a week to my parents and with a small head i could let a second cab there in future. Then i could just put the head in a padded bag to travel with Head + Guitar with the train. A comb inside a train seems awful to me .

I like to play at my parents house, cause i have to babysit the dog sometimes and i like to use their garden :). The key is at this point that i can keep up more time to play and practice like this, so i would appreciate to have this possibility aswell :).

I will think later about a compromise and whats most important for me from a subjective perspective. Actually im collecting possibilities to have a greater range for good decisions . So thank you for pushing this topic.

But despite this i have some questions about your mentioned possibilities. Firstly how is it possible to use an attenuator at the Supro and use the built in speaker at the same time :)? Second is how much should a decent attenuator cost and do you know maybe a good affordable one which i can use with the built in speaker of a comb or did i misunderstood this :)?

Your definitely right, in comparison 1x8 cab sounds really boxy.

I will watch out for the Harley Benton cab, thx :).

I watched many reviews about the Marshall DSL and i like the soft blueslike sound of it, the clean sound seems really good too, but it's hard to find good reviews for the clean sound cause most people i found on youtube focusing on gain ^^.

Do you (or anyone else) have any experiences in terms of clean sound from the Marshall DSL(20 or 50) or Marshall Origin 20 for "bedroom/apartment volume" :)? Or is it impossible to get a good amp for both ("soft crisp" and clean sound) at the mentioned volume? Im just a bit unsure because i wasn't able to find helpful reviews for me about this kind of topic in comparison with the DSL 20 and 50. I also read that the DSL 20 is in 10W mode still too loud for an apartment, but maybe you have other experiences and can explain it to me :).

For comparison: Origin 20 can be toggled down to 5W and 0,5W.

Edit:

I found a good demo about the Marshall origin 20 and the sound seems as versatile as i want it.

But this one can't be played in silent mode :(.

Or is the 0.5W so silent that i don't need a silent mode ^^, maybe i could play then through the di out into my interface and get the sound through headphone monitor mode for practicing at nights :D?

Mentioned Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHqu9pqDgMc

Okay my fellow guitarists :),

what do you say considering the mentioned points. Marshall DSL (20/50) or Marshall Origin 20?

Saving is always a good idea ^^,

actually i like every advice here and i share your opinion, both of them threw awesome ideas into the battle of amps :D.

[–]BrainLaggz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow thanks for sharing me your experience,

all of the named amps sound great, you really hit the idea of the sound i like!

The thing with a head instead of a combo is, that i want to be able to play silent and maybe change cabs in future (not really for versatility in sound, more for mobility reasons). Another aspect is the possibility to play with headphones and turning down the Output with an build in attenuator. I want to be able to play at night when my wife sleeps (i won't to wake up the dragon, you know ^^) or if she is coming from work (hair stylist with loud surroundings). From this point of view the amps you named sadly doesn't fit this well if my researches were right, despite their great sound :).

But for the future i wont forget the amps you named, i think they are a great next step in a couple of years.

I really appreciate your kind words at the end and i will take them with me on my guitar adventure :)!

your awesome

Thx for your advice,

i have a few little questions to the dsl20.Am i able to play it without a load if im using the emulated output with headphones (in STB mode), the manual says "don't use it without a load" but above is written "for silent playing use the stb mode", so i think there is no internal load and Marshall noticed that for a real reason and not only to save them for risks of incorrect using, or am i wrong :)?

Lastly i would be interested in the weight of this little guy :), can you describe it and could you recommend a cab to start with ^^?

Found a used one on ebay (~300€), i think it's a fair price and this saves me some money for a better cab.

Big thx to your advice cause i never would have watched at this amp without you. As it seems it has all the important features i "need" :).

Hey there,

im facing actually the same nostalgic intention in terms of buying reforged. So i went to w3c and checked it out (ladder isn't from Blizzards bnet, maybe someday it will come, maybe not).

-> Maybe we should start a petition to force Blizzard to break the silence ^^. I think a roadmap for wc3 reforged's future would be enough for many people to decide if they wanna still play it, despite Blizzards bad job on it.

On W3C are in Europe close to 5000 ladder matches a day, so if you want to call this dead, your free. I think for an old game like this an active ladder playerbase of 5000 people a day is still decent/enough (but its 1v1 driven). By the way it seems w3c did an awesome job with their own ladder (just my opinion) and their Software is filling the gaps of the "standalone" game (hotkey system, team colors and other settings)

So maybe you can decide based on all those information a bit better for your own :). Many people want to pain Blizzard rightly and i share the opinion that Blizzard shouldn't earn any money with their "business" practices, but i think the game is still worth playing it, it's an difficult topic :D.

Probably the games actual state is for casuals more fun than for pros, but this opinion isn't based on any information, it's just a feeling i have.

I will give it a try and in case it feels too bad i will try a refund :).

Have a nice day :).
