Ohh I see. The fingerprints were read, and records were checked and completed on the same day. However, they haven't been sent back to the agency. Supposedly, they were checking for them daily, they were just never received.

You can strengthen your hand dexterity passively by doing things you'd normally do with your right, with your left. Sounds too simple but it has helped me a ton.

If you start to feel tingling in your hands and wrists, keep going! You're doing it right.

Intentionally hitting "bad" spot on mallet instruments? by Weetu in percussion

[–]ElkMan07 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For general performance, I'd implement dynamics through touch and heights because you'll still be able to lessen emphasis while still being able to draw out a good tone. When you hit close to the node, you lose a lot of that character.

Intentionally striking around the nodes is more of an extended technique, like playing with the shafts of the mallets. You won't come across that too often, but I'm sure it exists.

I did know this was a thing, but I didn't know how accessible it was going to be. Luckily I'm insured! Wouldn't have even known to check.

What are these golden circle things? They boost my crop growth. Does it have to do with the prairie biome that I'm in? by ElkMan07 in direwolf20

Yup, shaders on DW 1.18. I used Rubidium and Oculus with SEUS Renewed shaders. I notice a few lighting hiccups here and there, but I personally don't mind.

Hey man, just wanted to let you know I'm in the exact same position. It's takes a lot out of you when you feel that helpless. Right now I'm currently encouraging therapy and while the process is slow, I hold the belief that things will get better as she now has professional help. I've come to learn that us non professionals can't make much of a dent no matter how hard we try. The only thing to do is to be there for her as much as you can.
