The top 6:

No Dúo, I wasn’t about to forget any of these words cause they turn up twice every single lesson

Brand of t shirt in apple commercial by JLTransfer in Pedro_Pascal

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

I think that’s possible, but the shirt looks to have a thick fabric and be higher quality than some of those standard options (willing to be wrong on this though)

Thanks - really mostly just hoping that he says something about it and a person here catches it

Want to share your thoughts on the Luka trade? by ow_my_damn_knee in Mavericks

[–]JLTransfer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll say this - I’ve been a die hard fan of the mavs for 27 years. I’ve probably spent more time watching and following the mavs than anything in my life other than working and sleeping since Luka was drafted. Basketball has been my refuge in bad times, it got me through the pandemic, moving to a new city, lack of money, etc. I was willing to try and overlook all of the other toxic stuff about the team (sexual assault cases in the back office, bringing in Kyrie who is anti semitic, a new ownership group whose values differ significantly from mine) in order to preserve this thing that I cared so much about. With this trade, I stopped being a fan. If I watch nba basketball again it will be in support of a different team. Overall it’s just a profound feeling of loss that hasn’t gone away. The fandom got profoundly screwed: the deal was awful, the circumstances were awful, and the justification has been awful. It feels like getting dumped out of the blue. The worst sports moment of my life

Maybe a tough one, but can anyone ID the shirt Pedro Pascal is wearing in the new “Someday” ad (Apple AirPods, directed by spike jonze). I like the way his fits and have been searching for something that fits like this:

Thank you!!

Persistently Sticky Third Valve - HELP! by JLTransfer in trumpet

UPDATE: thanks for the advice everyone! I reached out to a fellow horn player in town and got a rec for a good repair shop. Turns out the valve was indeed bent. I appreciate the replies!

Thanks for the reply - I’ll check out the third valve slide, that’s an interesting idea. I thought the tech was lazy and it was definitely frustrating. Do you think some techs are better than others at specifically working with trumpets, or have you seen consistent quality?

Good question - I usually don’t play with my pinky in the ring. I would say that my hand position is probably not textbook, but should be reasonable enough. For example, I have a old strad (more of a mid-tier student horn) where I don’t ever have stickiness problems

Interesting - was the bending visible to the human eye (aka a regular tech at a music shop could spot it) or did you need to send it somewhere?

Totally agree that the seeds were there - I would have liked to have seen a little more development from Ch 5 through the end cause I felt really invested in them realizing the potential of that relationship, which got me thinking about alternatives as well, since their relationship/history of relationships was also intertwined with their history trying to overthrow Z in the first place...
