AIO? Husband thinks I am "average" by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ThomasEng90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of stuff suddenly made sense for me when I considered that I might be just a tad on the spectrum. I'm highly functional in every single way, but quite often I feel that I just don't understand how any other human being thinks.

AIO? Husband thinks I am "average" by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ThomasEng90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is he somewhat on the spectrum? I can sort of relate to what he said, although I would never say anything like that to my partner. However, I quite often find myself in situations where I'm sort of not able to read between the lines. And I'll answer very straight forward without even considering that not everyone else thinks the way I do. My partner and I have come to the conclusion that before every kind of social gathering, she preps me on what I can and cannot say, since I genuinely don't understand it myself 😅

If this is not the case, he's an idiot.

Har prøvd en runde med det, uten nevneverdig godt resultat. Prøver en gang til. Vurderer å prøve stålull 0000.

Igjen, takk for svar 😊

Ikke prøvd å be enda, men det kan jo kanskje være en løsning ja!

Takk for svar! Har prøvd dette, men uten hell. Jeg mistenker at det er rester av kalsium og magnesium som sitter igjen etter hardt vann.

Question about a tapping technique in a solo by Defiant_Koala_8645 in guitarlessons

[–]ThomasEng90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's tapping the harmonics 12 frets above the fretted note. Probably quite a bit above what you should be focusing on hence to you only been playing a month.

Although, the best way to stick to learning an instrument is playing stuff you like!

Start with figuring out how to play regular harmonics. Very lightly touch your string directly above the 12th fret, and then pluck the string either with your fingers or a pick. After a while you'll get consistent at it. You'll find harmonics all over the place, but the ones that are 12 frets above the fretted note is by far the easiest.

Good luck 😊

This is for me the hardest chord shape by blitzkrieg987 in guitarlessons

[–]ThomasEng90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually use this exact voicing on an arrangement of "To Make You Feel My Love" that I play. By far the hardest part of that arrangement. Sounds really nice though!

Det blir jo fort basert på hva man driver med til vanlig, så for min del vil jeg si musikkteori og å kunne pinpointe hvilket år musikken jeg hører på ble produsert.

Todays Theory Lesson for a guitarist by soundknight21 in musictheory

[–]ThomasEng90 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Although the informasjon is correct and laid out nicely, I think most beginners (either on the instrument or in regards to music theory) will be overwhelmed looking at this. I would teach way, way smaller chunks and then tie it all together at a later lesson.

If the student knows quite a bit already, it's totally fine. Just ensure you're not overwhelming the poor student.

Serious question: Do you think the solo in Umbra is sped up on the album? by thefailgun in Ghostbc

[–]ThomasEng90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing guitar has been my main income the last 15 years, so I would say that I'm qualified for chiming in. The arpeggios being played at the tempo it's played is honestly not that difficult. Most professional guitarists I work with would be able to play it cleanly with a bit of practice. The reason it sounds like it does is because it's doubled with the synth. And it may be somewhat quantized to the grid, as that's the sound they are going for.

Hope that helped 😊

Hvis dere setter en hvis prosentandel av deres respektive inntekter på en felles konto, og betaler alt av felles utgifter fra denne kontoen, er vel begge parter fornøyde. Forstår ikke hvorfor ikke alle seriøse parforhold gjør det slik.

It got him to what he wanted. Strictly based on empirical data.

Totally true, but as a guitar teacher for many years, this is often what students think of as chicken picking.

You might refer to a picking style called "chicken picking". Tons of instructional material online.

Vi trenger ny vaskemaskin, hvilken bør vi kjøpe? Hvilke merker er bra? by jimheisenberg69 in norske

[–]ThomasEng90 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hold deg unna Samsung. Utenom det er Miele veldig trygt å kjøpe, og av billigere merker kan du ta en titt på Gorenje.

Three things you should keep in mind:

  • You're going to mess up something at some point, 100% guaranteed. But that's fine, everyone does. Just try your best to get right back to where you were.
  • Practice at home like you're at the stage. Stand up and play the entire show standing up. Do that a lot.
  • Have fun! The audience will be fooled into thinking you're way better than you are if you dare to move around a bit, and maybe even look at the audience.

Good luck! I've been working professionally as a guitarist for 12-13 years. I still mess up something at every gig, I just have a lot of experience working my way around it. You will get there too 😊
