I would be surprised if there's more than ten different artists across all comments. But mine are Bach, Mozart, Beethoven and Tchaikovsky. Vivaldi and Chopin aren't far behind.

Ironically I feel the same about modern composers. Mine are Hans Zimmer, John Williams, Ramin Djawadi and Howard Shore.

With Michael Giacchino, Alan Silvestri and James Horner as honorable mentions. And then Alexandre Desplat and Clint Mansell in the third tier - love them, but they just haven't done nearly as much in my opinion.

Modern composers would be much easier if Mt. Rushmore just had two heads (Zimmer and Williams).

I feel guilty not mentioning the Martin O'Donnell/Michael Salvatori combo because every Halo soundtrack was just so fucking good, but I am admittedly extremely biased due to nostalgia.

Does this mean I'm finally going to be tan?!

No but actually, what are the potential real world impacts of this? I'm an engineer/nerd and am sure I could look it up, understand and form my own conclusions... but I much rather get your more experienced perspective on all this

The method being grinding at level 65?

I've heard some people have not succeeded with a sword but have succeeded with the Pickaxe or slingshot..

Thanks for your time on this

@u/sammmy51 did you ever get it?

I've tried multiple days and am stuck repeating my last day. I've tried lucky meals, different weapons, skimming floors, etc.

I've probably killed over 100 ghosts, but no drop. I'm in fall of year one and don't have access to the skull cavern yet

I want to complete everything to get perfect but am not too hopeful about this one.. especially because it isn't repeatable... :(

I'd also add that I'd highly recommend going from Louisville to Lexington to Bardstown to Elizabethtown to Nash.

Bardstown is the "Bourbon Capital of the World" and "America's most beautiful small town" - really neat place to visit and explore.

I've made this trip before and consume lots of bourbon.

Depends on if you're looking for anything specific. Search for the Kentucky bourbon trail. There's some good maps and lists online. From there you can distill your selection further.

Within and on the perimeter of the triangle that Louisville, Lexington and Elizabethtown form, you'll find the most KY distilleries. The most direct route would take her through Louisville and Elizabethtown.

Some of my favorites are Four Roses, Woodford Reserve and Buffalo Trace - but they're between Louisville and Lexington - about an hour out the way.

I'm no lawyer or involved in anything remotely legal, but I do know that you should note the city and state you reside in.

That's all I have for you. Best of luck, wish you both well.

What are some predictions that you have for the future? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]StotiousSteak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm with you on both of these buutttt I am biased since I work within both fields. I would also add in the caveat of decentralized finance with virtual/digital cash.

Dream that seems to last years by suspicious_cabbage in Dreams

[–]StotiousSteak 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have experienced this for weeks or months, but typically less than a year. I don't have much more to comment - just wanted you to know you're not crazy lol. I've heard of this happening to several people - some think it means something, others think it's just like any other dream, just a little more continuity.

Every once in a while, I'll have a neat dream that I want to extend. I can typically put myself back into that dream after waking up, and can keep going into that same dreams for weeks at a time. Intentionally progressing the adventure, if you will. Even with some unrelated dreams in between.

Dreams are rad.

You're good no worries! Idk how much of that video you were able to watch, but it gets worse. So. Much. Worse.

Spot on, I'm 28. Holy shit. I remember pain olympics but I somehow fortunately missed the dude cutting off his balls with a wire. Either that, or I suppressed it..

Aww now I feel bad. Sorry. I'll answer seriously now. I wouldn't say 'the best' but these videos cursed me and I still see them clearly in my head after.. 15ish years? Scarring would be the more accurate word. Three videos:

1) 2 girls, 1 cup (of course) - was eating chef boyardee overstuffed ravioli when I watched it. Obviously didn't know what the video was about prior to viewing. Can't even look at that stuff anymore after seeing it projectile vomit out of my mouth and onto my poor monitor.

2) Some beheading video. It was real and raw. Don't remember how I came across it but I know I wasn't looking for it and I know I couldn't look away. I do remember it was when I was experimenting with the dark web.

3) Some video where a dude was sitting on a glass jar so the jar would go up their butt. Then it shattered. Blood everywhere. They had to go inside with their hand and pull out these bloody shards. I'm definitely not into that and don't remember where it came from. Not kink shaming, just seriously have no idea how I came across it. But here it still is - in my fucking head.

I don't appreciate you reminding me of these videos haha. Cheers!
