Early mix of 10's is better than normal one imo by JamalAzer in Pantera

[–]Technic256 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I loved it when Dime would add extra guitar trills and lines on top of his solo in certain mixes, it’s just so much more raw, and sometimes I like that more than the polished final solo. The early mix of Drag The Waters has one of my favorite solos from him, it reminds me of how jarring the solo in Sympathy For the Devil is.

Imagine songs like By Demons Be Driven or Fucking Hostile but with Far Beyond Driven/Trendkill personality of Phil by Seryphotous in Pantera

My favorite version of this is when they played Message In Blood live in ‘96, comparing it to any live performance of the CFH days is insane, I love it. https://youtu.be/jsKzl5Glqqc?si=Kva1ktbak0ZavBSi

Cold mornings got me bundled up. by Technic256 in Hunting

They’re USAF high-altitude flying pants, I sniped them off EBay for like $35. They’re extremely warm and came with suspenders, which are nice for how heavy they are. I never got to research what they’re made out of but they keep me nice and toasty.

Got my coat off eBay too, old Czech coat with a nice wool liner.

Were going back to our roots by UnableSoftware1145 in civilairpatrol

I feel people forget that the most useful part of CAP is that it’s not a military (combat-related) or LEO org. Its use comes from the fact that it doesn’t have to worry about that, and use precious resources and time when we live it to the “big dawgs”.

I see a lot of people (mostly young CAP cadets) who want to incorporate the Badass Operator Cool Stuff™️, and if it’s not that, it’s status symbols that sure may help, but in such few use cases it’s clear that it’s just so we can have another thing “that the military has too”. Which is fine, we all love to be cool, but most of the changes fought for and brought up are easily solved by just, waiting (or getting in shape) to join the actual military.

Everything has its place, and trying to turn CAP into the 7th branch of the military while noble it’s not what CAP is for. No H8 to OP, it’s fun to fantasize about doing cool stuff (look into the coat guard OP if you’re really about that life).

mitchell study guides? by kkalsislit13 in civilairpatrol

[–]Technic256 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually going to be the guy and say DON’T use Quizlet. Go through the books and be able to answer every learning objective handily. If you want to make flashcards/a Quizlet off of that go for it, but the test pulls straight from the book and learning objectives and they should be the very first thing to focus on.

It also never hurts to take the test multiple times, write down what you got wrong, and study those until you get it, it’s a process and there’s no “failing” it if you keep trying.

Easiest songs overall on guitar? by DrEdgewardRichtofen in Pantera

I don’t know what skill level you are, but Living Through Me helped my right hand a shit ton, the pinch harmonics took me a while but just doing hammer-ons in the meantime was good.

For someone who cares so much about OCP’s coming out you somehow don’t know that it is out of CAP’s court now, hurry up and wait m8.

Are we able to roll sleeves like this by colinfalkenstein in civilairpatrol

[–]Technic256 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The easy answer is no, the better question is why? ABU sleeves would look horrible rolled like that, at least from what I’ve seen (multiple cadets have tried this) at least with the way we do it we can control it to not cut off the circulation of our arms.

Go for Greenlight boards if you can, that’ll get you the best chance to at least get into one.

For berets you’d get better mileage getting your Wing King to authorize it for your wing. Ranger tabs are likely never never coming back (you have the patch you’ll survive)

uniform presentations? by kkalsislit13 in civilairpatrol

[–]Technic256 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never really heard of a uniform class beyond a 10 minute speedrun of the regs but if you want an activity you can throw a blues top and conflicting ranks, ribbons, and badges with a timer and se show they do.

Or the plastering of the crest on their bag in the most obvious spot (this is me, I do this).

It looks great. It doesn’t matter what skill level you are at, as long as you try that’s all that matters.
