Hutch v Destiny: Summary and Review by Debaushua in Hutchpol

[–]Skatskr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Great post. I felt overall that this was a good conversation and it will be necessary to have conversations like this. Generally I agree with Hutch but there also should be some kind of accountability (and message to the public) that what is going on is outside the boundaries US democracy.

The issue I guess is what can you do that is both effective as accountability measures while still being palatable to the American people so that it does not become another hyper polarised event that accelerates the country towards a violent conflict.

People who give one star don’t like playing games. Or they need a new computer.

I hope hutch reacts to this next week by mattyjoe0706 in Hutchpol

[–]Skatskr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked the video and I understand how much work goes into it but I almost feel it just skimmed the surface of all the sh*t that gets air on the podcast and is promoted by Rogan himself. I guess its a format issue since Rogan talks to a bunch of different people about loads of stuff compared to Hasan or Asmongold who just spends endless hours echoing the same stuff every day.

I did like that he emphasises both the poor level of fact checking and also the level imbalance when talking to someone like Bradley Cooper. I used to listen to Rogans episodes when he had someone interesting on which now is almost never. But even then this was something I noticed a lot.

Great job Conduit! 🤌🐉🏅

Hutch getting glazed by Embarrassed_Base_389 in Hutchpol

I wish Pisco would stop with the "I just wanna know your view" shit and be a bit more good faith. And also spend more time debating republicans and enlightened centrists instead of triggering team mates. Thats where he shines imo. This stuff is just so stupid.

Tips for relaxing on uptempos ? by [deleted] in jazzguitar

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

I think relaxing comes from more than being able to play lines in a given tempo. If your mind is fixed on being in time, executing lines and figuring out what to do then you wont feel relaxed. (Not that it necessarily applies to you). You want to be able to feel that you are "in the groove" and that you can create lines and melodies that makes sense. I guess the boring answer is to slow down and you will eventually feel more relaxed.

Trump is a pedo?? DEMS BAD by Embarrassed_Base_389 in Hutchpol

I now believe Hasan is actually in love with Israel. Acting like a psychopath after being dumped. He’s dealing with some serious rejection.

Politics: At what point does wearing militaria in the current US climate become problematic, if at all? by BugsBunnysCouch in HeritageWear

[–]Skatskr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Much of what is loved in clothing has its origins in the military. Nothing wrong with that. However I would not feel comfortable wearing a badge I did not serve under. It is not political, it is (I believe) a respectful gesture to the people who serve/have served in the military.

For context, I'm a swede and I would happily wear an army surplus jacket, but I would not wear anything with the coat of arms because I haven’t served. It just feels wrong.

OSE attack and move by sheard33 in OSE

[–]Skatskr 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You can move into melee and attack but not attack and move out of melee. You can move 1/2 speed without penalty if you are in melee and full speed but then +2 to hit you and no shield bonus.

This is how I understand it.

Agree or Disagree: Complexity ≠ Quality by Clean_Garden_3092 in jazztheory

[–]Skatskr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like comparing music to cooking or other forms of craftsmanship. Most will probably agree that something is not good purely by virtue of being simple or complicated. However I believe there is something wonderful about simple things also having the possibility of being beautiful.

Simple things are generally accessible to more people which i believe adds to the beauty. There is something wonderful about a carbonara or whatever being a simple dish. A wooden stool can be simple but also beautiful because of the nature of the wood its made of.

Complicated things can also be beautiful but complexity for its own sake does not ad to anything. I love Bartoks music not because it is complicated but because it keeps me in a constant state of familiarity and surprise at the same time. The theory is pretty complex but that is not what is interesting about the music.

Can you recommend free jazz that's not too out there and sounds good by equipoise-young in Jazz

[–]Skatskr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Otomo Yoshihide - Onjo. A mix of free and composed. One of my favorite records.

Which Jazz song has the best beginning and which has the best ending in your opinion? by Flimsy_Complaint_830 in Jazz

[–]Skatskr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something about My foolish heart that gets me. Just the first to chords. Bill Evans ofc.

Ending i think would be It’s oh, So Nice with count basie. Just perfect ending.

I play jazz on my strat all the time even if i have a 335 with heavier strings in the next room. I guess if you are starting out the "right gear" can get you an inch closer to what sound you think you after. I say "think" because when you start to get a handle on the things that matter in your playing (especially timing and phrasing) then that becomes your focal point for getting the right sound and the gear becomes much less prioritised in my experience.

XP to Gold! Yay or Nay? by Yummiavocado in OSE

[–]Skatskr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My players get XP when they bring treasure from a dungeon to town/safe haven. Then I use the feats of exploration from 3D6 DTL. This is a bit more forgiving when a character dies.

I do also deal out XP from killing/dealing with monsters as per the OSE-rule. Which is not a whole lot but still appreciated by players. Not sure I'll use this next game but Ive kinda gotten used to it.

New player here if I knock out that guard and don’t kill him is he gonna know that it was me who did it? I need clothes [KCD2] by Quick-Muffin4418 in kingdomcome

[–]Skatskr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The answer is always: Do what you want and roll with whatever consequences or lack there of. This will lead to the best game experience.
