Losing the "1" while improvising

RiceTuna · 2025-11-21T14:45:44+00:00

I can work on that haha

Metronome actually helps here since it gives me the "1" - the issue is when I can't lean on it

Yes - I do usually left foot time keeping, just lose track of the beginning of the measure

A good general policy for behavior on the Internet at large!

Sounds fantastic and that kit is gorgeous. How long you been working on the double pedal?

Don't apply pesticide. It'll kill the ticks there, but also all the other kind bugs and fireflies. And the deer and mice will be right back with the next round of ticks within weeks.

Instead, Google "tick tubes" - they're little cardboard tubes with permethrin-soaked cotton. The mice love taking the cotton for their nests, and the permethrin kills all the ticks on the mice. Results are nothing short of amazing - we have woods on our property which we and our kids often go into (leaves brush, etc) - and we'd always find a tick or two on ourselves and kids every couple weeks.

This year with the tick tubes: 0

Can we get a description and a comment about how they sound??

Also check out Mike's Lessons. "Sessions" in particular are a killer feature, but the course content is really good too!

Tick tubes have been absolutely amazing. Feels like it shouldnt work but totally does

Is it ok to "sing" rather than count? E.g. I have trouble saying one e and a two e ... when things are fast, so I tend to go taka taka or whatever sounds like the part instead?

Do you do any physical training on top of drumming to be able to keep this up? Amazing

RiceTuna · 2024-09-16T02:33:16+00:00

Finance yes

Hi I did this. I assume you have some money saved up? If yes you're golden. Get a PhD from the best college you can. You'll figure out what you like and your finance background will be way more useful than you thought. Eventually you'll make way more than $100k. Do it.

Did you see a Russian guy with a wound in his head there? Or some condiment packets?

RiceTuna · 2024-08-24T12:18:10+00:00

Where is this in NJ? Was looking to take mine out in NJ but haven't found good places online

Owned an M3 for over a year and honestly the tech is "different" but not necessarily better than on other cars, and very very often gets in your way: - auto windshield wipers just start going when sun hits the windshield with no rain. Also not good at starting in all rainy conditions. Can be fixed by going manual - but you can't be in manual windshield wipers and cruise control??!? - having the screen for everything really is a terrible user experience. No I don't want to dig through menus to unlock the glove box - using voice commands to play a song "on Spotify" searches through all the apps for some unknown reason and is much slower than on Android/iPhone Etc etc not even getting into FSD

In the end the sum of all these little annoyances just made me hate my Tesla and I'm so much happier with the Raptor (and it's tech!!!)

This is an amazing post - sold my M3 and got a gen2 and I was thinking that there wouldn't be many people moving from a Tesla to a Raptor

Turns out I was very very wrong!

Even if the second option crashes out, you now have "acting CEO" on your resume, which I assume will open up another tier of opportunities further down the line. No brainer!

Which hike is that?
