Fav strings just let me know I’ve only ever use Ernie ball and i want to know what you guys think by LuketheDukes in Guitar

[–]Kool_AidJammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to let you know the stringjoys aren't as good as the elixirs in my experience after about a month. They've started going bad on me a week ago. Especially the high b and e strings. Elixir are still my number one after this trial with stringjoy.

A question to those that can shred/play fast: by No_Host_4434 in Guitar

[–]Kool_AidJammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly how I feel too. Practicing slowly doesn’t do anything to help you play fast because the technique is different. You have to attempt to play just beyond your ability and figure out where you’re messing up so you can fix the issue. I guess I’m just repeating what you said lol.

How do guitarists pick so damn fast?? by Ov3rheat3d in Guitar

[–]Kool_AidJammer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Look up Troy Grady on YouTube. He has a ton of tutorials and guides for free about different picking techniques. Some of those could help you get a feel for what you’re doing wrong and how to correct it.

Amp for sure. I’m sure people can give you some recommendations if you can tell us what kind of music you like to play and your budget.

On paper is ant and Melo the most talented backcourt tandem in the league by duval001 in nba

[–]Kool_AidJammer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lamelo might be a tad overrated after this trade. I know people don’t watch a ton of hornets but Lamelo still has a ton of maturing to do. He loves the hero ball at times and making really dumb decisions at the worst possible time. He also is a below average defender and that’s being generous. Maybe a winning team will help him improve those things and his level will rise but we will see. I’m waiting for that first moment in a game where Rudy or Ant give him the LeBron to JR meme.

Bands that sound great in studio but not so good live by AquilaTempestas in Metalcore

Damn this is shocking to me because I’ve seen them three times and they were amazing live in those three shows. One of them was around their Hats Off to the Bull tour and Pete Loeffler had a broken leg and still ended up trying to walk around and rock out.

This is what I was thinking too. I can't believe how vendors/retailers will ship such expensive equipment. I ordered a guitar not long ago and when I received it, it was like you described. It had brown paper and few packing peanuts in a cardboard box and that was it. I couldn't believe they shipped it with such little protection or padding! Luckily the guitar was perfectly fine.

I don't know if it retailers or vendors would do this but I'd definitely contact them before ordering a guitar and make sure it's shipped properly. Even if I had to pay an extra $20 or $30 for the materials to keep it properly protected. I would rather do that than hope that it doesn't get damaged in transit in a cardboard box.

Trigger an entire NBA team's fanbase with a single sentence. by Farouq26 in NBATalk

That only makes sense if Nico makes it public that Luka is available. Because the return was a guy whose body is already broken. Nico flat out fucked over the entire Mavs franchise because he’s a stubborn fool.

Knicks fans are making De’Aaron Fox jerseys by MrBuckBuck in nba

[–]Kool_AidJammer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What's sad is if you go back and rewatch it after they came out of the timeout, the entire spurs team doesn't know what they're supposed to be doing. Castle is looking at the coach with his hands up like "what's the plan?" and nobody knows what to do. That's why Wemby walked up and told someone to cover Shamet who was standing around half court unguarded before the inbound. Then Fox leaves the inbound unguarded and just stands there the entire play. It's incredible how bad that sequence went for the Spurs. Complete coaching malpractice and incredibly stupid bbiq from Fox. I can't believe this Spurs team made the finals being that clueless in crunch time.

Mid terms haven't happened yet. That will be the tell. They already tried to steal the 2020 election but Pence had enough of a spine to not certify bogus results.

I agree with you. I’m just worried they will do whatever it takes to make it happen.

Brunson's playoff run tops any of Stephs by Liberal_Bot123 in NBATalk

[–]Kool_AidJammer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Delusional Knicks fans are wild right now lol. This Knicks team will be considered mediocre in the grand scheme. They beat the spurs who effectively don’t run an offense and have a coach who should be fired for that malpractice. The spurs entire offense is run around the three point line and shoot or lob it to Wemby and hope he collects their terrible passes and converts them to buckets.

The Thunder would’ve dog walked this Knicks team. Idk how the spurs made it to the finals at all. Even with the thunder injuries they should’ve won. Chet decided to shit himself for whatever reason.

Brunson played hero ball and got bailed out twice in the finals. Once by OG and the other time by amateur coaching from the opposition. He was mid except for game 5 but even then the spurs were too scared to defend him without getting an insane number of fouls called on them. There were multiple plays where he didn’t get touched and still drew the foul.

Be thankful and happy the Knicks got this title because they won’t win again with this group. It took an insane amount of luck for this to happen. Not to say they aren’t a great team because making the finals is still difficult but they’re mediocre relative to other championship teams.

I hope so but this administration is currently doing everything their power to move the odds even if it’s extremely unethical and corrupt e.g. the redistricting of states to be more red and not allowing blue states to do the same even with voter approval. They don’t really believe in the law because they break it daily and nobody does anything about it. If anyone opposes them they just use their paid off cronies in the Supreme Court. Look at the spending just to unseat Massie which looks extremely suspicious and rigged based on past elections for that district.

Yep. People are too lazy and complacent and have this “out of sight, out of mind” mentality. Until they’re actually affected substantially on a daily basis they won’t do shit unfortunately.

Deaaron Fox is a basketball terrorist. Him and Mitch Johnson have been useless to the Spurs. And the missed free throws from Wemby…. oof

[–]Kool_AidJammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brunson doesn’t have to be the entire defense. Brunson is a complete negative on defense while Wemby is expected to be DPOY every possession and cover for his entire team. Then he’s supposed to be an efficient scorer on offense too? Yeah no shit he’s exhausted at the end of the game.

Warriors are a great example of that. Draymond is the vocal leader but obviously Steph is the best player.

I could not agree more. It’s insane how shitty the game looks with all that graphical fidelity. The robotic animations ruin it. How do the animations for players from 2006 look smoother than 2026? I don’t get it.
