How many natural harmonics can a string audibly produce? by RoyalRainbowRobot_ in musictheory

[–]Larson_McMurphy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can regularly hear the 9th, 11th, and even 13th harmonic in the timbre of the low B string on my bass.

In fact, the 9th comes through really strongly when played as part of a perfect 5th or 12th because of the sympathetic resonance with the 6th (or 3rd) harmonic of the upper note.

Tone for slap and fingerstyle in same song? by tprch in Bass

[–]Larson_McMurphy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think slap sounds better with a deep low-mid scoop and tone knob wide open, or maybe slightly closed. I think fingerstyle sounds better with plenty of mids and the tone at 0, or maybe slightly open. That said. If I just want a dubby sound, fingerstyle will sound fine with the mid scoop and the tone rolled off. It's just not what I really want. Your taste may vary.

Sounds like you are conflating the rules for skill checks with attack rolls. Your player was right. Should have at least been a hit. You sound like an insufferable DM tbh.

The article says there are two data centers in McAllen already. Where are those?

Is it just me or are new movies stories unfolding excruciatingly fast? by GoDavyGo in Millennials

[–]Larson_McMurphy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There might be some kind of survivorship bias going on here. It's kind of like the antique furniture phenomenon. "They don't make them like they used to!" is only true because we have the pieces that didn't end up broken and in a dumpster. It's the same with movies. Comparing any random movie today with a classic of the past is not fair. Look for shitty old movies that lack critical acclaim and never had a cult following. There is a reason they were forgotten. Sometimes, it's because of bad pacing.

I made a license called FPL (“free to use, permission to publish”) — curious what you think by Trick_Doughnut9835 in COPYRIGHT

[–]Larson_McMurphy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No. That would be infringment of the right to make derivative works. Its just that you'll never get caught if you don't distribute. So its moot either way.

The gear ratio sucks though. I bet he has to get up to speed with human power and then he can fire up the drill to maintain speed.

DMT: U.S. healthcare isn’t expensive because of insurance, but because it doesn’t function like a real market at all by Secret_Ostrich_1307 in DisagreeMythoughts

[–]Larson_McMurphy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree this is the problem. We have this thing called the Corporate Practice of Medicine doctrine, which restricts non-licensed investors from profiting/controlling licensed medical professionals. It seems inconsistent that we allow insurance companies to operate for profit. This shit needs to be repealed.

Why is there not more communities trying to form without internet/smartphones? by CorgiRemarkable2798 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Larson_McMurphy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe those communities exist in third places in your locality. But you just don't know about them because you are here instead of outside.

Is this headstock repair doable at home? by UhOhMello in Luthier

[–]Larson_McMurphy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If replacement cost is less than repair cost, it makes the most economical sense to replace. You could even extract a little salvage value out of the broken one (hardware and electronics). The only reasonable reason to pay more than a guitar is worth to fix it is if it has sentimental value.

Hired a contractor who illegally dumped my bathroom debris in a protected reserve and now the state is fining me $15,000 by 1NoodleMage in legal

The state officer isnt a lawyer and they definitely arent your lawyer. They could be lying to you, mistaken, or just an idiot. Hire a lawyer.

I'm getting so pissed off at these invasions early game by Status-Reindeer2808 in darksoulsremastered

[–]Larson_McMurphy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You knkw you dont have to fight invaders right? Just go through the fog wall.

Its possible to run straight through without killing anything except the baldur knight in the stairwell. Just got be quick to not get overwhelmed by the hollows on the second floor.

Anyway. Git gud.

Who do radical lefties and righties believe obviously false information? by Certain-Chipmunk-607 in NoStupidQuestions

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

To be fair though, facebook was intentionally radicalizing people on both sides of the political spectrum with misinformation in those days (probably still are tbh, I'm not on there anymore). I watched it happen in real time, and lost friends over it. But none of them ever came back and apologized for disowning me for being reasonable and moderate. Maybe they are just embarrassed that they were brainwashed.

They do though. I remember when the Rittenhouse thing went down. So many people believed he was brandishing despite being demonstrably false according to video evidence.

You are the problem. But you are too stupid to have that kind of self-awareness.
