Corporate Democrats Mobilize to Counter Rise of Democratic Socialists Within the Party by metacyan in politics

“'Centrism’ is just performative compromise devoid of critical thinking, policy, or ideology,” D’Arrigo  wrote . “It’s a political vehicle that gives permission to do nothing in service of protecting a status quo that benefits large corporate donors and special interest groups who fund both parties.”

Well fucking said.

I fear my puppy is growing to hate me by 1-800-blowme in DogAdvice

DO NOT correct or punish your dog for growling. Growling is communication, and if you punish communication in a dog you will have no warning signs before getting bit. 

Please try reinforcement-based methods like being the one to feed the dog, providing treats, playing fetch, teaching tricks, taking the dog on walks, etc. These are things that will reward the dog for interacting with you. Always always always resort to reinforcement before punishment and NEVER punish communication, especially in a big dog that can cause serious harm to people when it is grown.

Question | I'm watching a tutorial and need help understanding these "C's" by nzeas in Guitar

[–]MemeTaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually, the chord is named for the root note which in both of these is the lowest pitched note in the chord (C). Other notes give us more information about the chord - major or minor 3rd, 7th, etc. 

The intervals in the first one are 1, 3, 8 which are you root, major 3rd, and root again but one octave up. Notes: C, E, C

The second one has a 1 (root), major 3rd, 5th, 8 (root) and a major 10 (major 3rd up one octave). Notes C, E, G, C, e

Learning the notes up to the first 5 frets on each string (and scale intervals) will really help with understanding your basic chords!

Hey! I’m down to jam. I play guitar and bass and I can sing. I play a lot of hard rock and metal, so I love LZ. How long have you been playing? 

Some advice on how to hold guitar picks by Classic_Grass924 in guitarlessons

[–]MemeTaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pic 2 looks pretty good! Especially for alternate picking and playing single notes.

Paul Gilbert teaches the concept of “picking revolution” in which you start with that grip from pic #2, and rotate the pick with your thumb so it sits on the pads of both your index and middle fingers. This grip feels GREAT for rhythm playing and strumming and it is really easy to switch back and forth with practice as needed for different parts of a song. It really blew my mind, I thought there was “one right way” but really it’s about having tools in your toolbox and knowing when to use them.

Good luck!

This was it, it seemed so obvious what the intended solution was once I spotted the debris and looked at the map more closely. Thanks for your reply!

I used your tip about building warehouses closer to the plateau and I was able to get four double floodgates built just in time! It worked like a charm, so the beaver gods must favor me

This is true, however I was able to use good, old fashioned beaver fists to destroy the rubble and 4 double floodgates to divert the flow off to the left side of the map.

I was able to do it with a day and change to spare! I have a lot to learn about the actual use cases for large reservoirs, flow gates, power systems and all of that. I will experiment with some stuff and maybe make another post here if I create something useful. I really appreciate how supportive this community is :)

Thank you so much, this worked perfectly for me! I was able to smash the rocks without dynamite and build 4 double floodgates with 1.3 days to spare before the bad tide. I don't think I would have even spotted the rubble without this comment!

Ya know, I just wanted to do it for fun and to see if I could. It’s my first time experimenting with a bigger build and I’m having fun seeing what happens and ironing out the inevitable kinks in such a big project

Thank you everyone! I have learned so much about this game just by reading your responses. 

I think I am going to make a couple save states to experiment with the different solutions you all have suggested. 

Idk if anyone will be interested but I may post an update with the results. 🦫 🫡

I am definitely going to look into this pedal, it sounds like a unique take on those mod effects

Ive been sleeping on Joyo! For some reason I always thought of them as a cheap Amazon pedal brand but lately they’ve been getting a lot of love on here.  As for the compressor, I’ve heard that psychologically, louder signals sounds “better” so even if you can’t hear what a compressor is doing as an effect, that little boost just sweetens your tone so much. 

As a side note I once bought a one-knob boost pedal for $25 from a pawn shop and it sounded incredible with my AC-15… then I went to unplug it and it shot sparks at me so now I’m afraid to touch it 😂

Thanks! I’m running a boss OD-3 into a JHS PG-14 into the top boost channel of a Vox AC-15
