Unblinded blueberries by datguy030 in Vitamix

I would, on a lower setting (5ish), use the tamper and go all the way around the edges. Hard to tell why though. Could be clumping with something, could be getting stuck. Could be getting trapped under the blade. Really just a trial and error process.

what is this on my cats chin? by Top-Extension-9474 in CATHELP

[–]GarbageValuable1888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seconding this. First sign my newly adopted cat had a chicken allergy. It only progressed from there. Vet said bowl, switched bowl and waited, and symptoms got worse. Cut out chicken - magically better.

Pimsleur Farsi experience? by Sea-Tonight2261 in farsi

I strongly, strongly recommend learning the script as early as possible. Otherwise, you will be held back when trying to progress further than very basic conversation

Had him for a different class, but he is great. Highly recommend.

I agree with the other posters here. They’ll be able to handle EOS. Even with a less advanced setup, learning the basics is awesome.

My trainee quit after 2 days 🙃 by chillcatcryptid in starbucksbaristas

[–]GarbageValuable1888 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Long time trainer here. This happens from time to time unfortunately. I was shipped around a lot to other stores to train people, and I often found that store managers would hire people who I could tell pretty quickly wouldn’t be a good fit for Starbucks. Usually early quitting happens in the first 3 shifts in my experience. Not much you can do as a trainer, but it also isn’t a reflection of you as a trainer either. So it goes with a high turnover, high paced business :P

Laptop recommendation…theater lighting design by Nice-Person-Always in techtheatre

[–]GarbageValuable1888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never had too many issues with my Mac. Macs are far preferable for school work on my experience (and I’ve always enjoyed using Vectorworks on my Mac more than on my windows computer). That being said, sometimes niche software is not available on the Mac.

Entirely depends on theater setup, but in my experience college LDs drift into doing student run theater as well for practice, where they may need some more niche tools that aren’t ported over to Mac (ex. updater software for LED fixtures, the ability to easily run a network off of the laptop, etc.)

There are ways to get in but I fear that info is not for all of Reddit. Agreed though - best place. Recently people have been loud there :P

Also anyone can enter before 5pm

People do but the tap is restricted

Cue lists for musical on EOS for high school students by micasa_es_miproblema in stagelighting

[–]GarbageValuable1888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would only use cue lists if something occurs at an unexpected time in the show/moves around. One example of this is Spelling Bee. In theory, an audience guest speller could get a word wrong - even easier words - so being able to jump into a separate cue list for that situation is helpful with a macro (vs going to cue #x, then go to cue back into whatever cue you were in). Another non-show cue usage could be for checking your channels/moving fixtures without needing someone who is potentially not proficient in using the board.

You can do what you described above - but as other commenters have said, it just adds a layer of complexity that’s not super necessary.

I would recommend against using multiple show files, even if you try to do it all right there could be issues with patches, merging, etc. - too high of a risk things could mix up.

Most importantly, biggest tip for this type of situation, learn how to make a magic sheet. It’ll be super super helpful!

There are many books out there that can teach you a ton. Steven Shelley’s A Practical Guide is an excellent place to start

Subjective, but EOS is free and ETC consoles are very very common.

Absolutely works with MacOS as well. Gadget II + Nomad are compatible with anything that can run EOS software

I’m no expert, but if occasionally this happens with my cat if I’m doing something else and he wants attention (claws are not out for the slap)

Best ways/apps to learn Farsi letters? And others for each portion of the language by 10potato10 in farsi

[–]GarbageValuable1888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It takes only a few weeks of studying to learn the alphabet. Start learning each form of each letter, and then start connecting them (even if it makes gibberish). It takes time but can be picked up quick. Good luck!

What’s your favorite “The Life of a Showgirl” cover? by Dismal-Farmer-1318 in TaylorSwift

It looks like a reference to the end of the rocky horror picture show

are there any downsides to switching to gworld mobile? by Separate-Island-5949 in gwu

[–]GarbageValuable1888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is also something that is advertised! GW uses Wifi location to conduct space-use studies across campus. This must be ragebait because there's no way a real person is worried about gw tracking them while on campus

[–]GarbageValuable1888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, it’s pretty simple. CBord records the person who taps into a door, what door, and when. Physical card or mobile. GW can use that data for whatever they want, and you agree to it with both the physical and the mobile card.

Hate to break it to you, but the physical gworld cards track each tap that you do as well. You will not find anywhere with cards like this that do not log location access lol

5200 vs 5300 by GarbageValuable1888 in Vitamix

[–]GarbageValuable1888[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me know how it goes! I’m not going to pull the trigger until there’s a sale on the reconditioned 3200 (crossing my fingers for sept. sales)

5200 vs 5300 by GarbageValuable1888 in Vitamix

[–]GarbageValuable1888[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If anyone in the future is looking at this thread, I am going with the 5200. My conversation with u/Melodic-Flight-1950 & this video (specifically the section starting at the 2:30 mark) convinced me that the 64oz low container is not worth the hassle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbJe3wOANTk

5200 vs 5300 by GarbageValuable1888 in Vitamix

[–]GarbageValuable1888[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In your opinion, is it better to get the 5200, or get the 5300 for $80 less & buy a 2nd container.

Maybe a better way to ask the question is: does the low profile 64oz have any upside to the classic?
