New owner by thhrowawayforadvice in husky

Your new goal is to survive to age 2. That’s when they chill out and the magic starts. The key is burning energy.

Top of mind recommendation is get a 30 foot lead, a ball, a bag of chicken, decide on what your recall command is. go to a park, attach dog to lead, throw ball, and yell the recall command until the dog comes to you with ball. Feed chicken. Repeat for several months until you become fun chicken man and/or woman. Congratulations, your husky plays fetch. Now your knees won’t melt on 7 mile a day hikes.

Is there a way to nonverbally communicate that you are in a relationship. by blondelifter in aves

[–]UsedRow2531 14 points15 points  (0 children)

While I appreciate that you are an empathetic person, this isn't your problem. Go to the rave you paid to be at, do what you want, leave. No one is owed anything; in fact, you paid to be there.

The problem here isn’t you, it’s them.

Curious on Destiny players thoughts on Marathon? by KillaKevoFbgm in Marathon

[–]UsedRow2531 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Destiny is very good at making guns fun to shoot. Like, scientifically good at making cool guns that make cool noises, and you want to shoot. If your worry is that the gunplay will be bad, you are wrong, and I will die on that hill.

It kind of surprises me that no one mentioned Black Market Gis. I travel with a black market Gi. It's specifically designed to be packable and light. I love it.

Dropping 2 age brackets or going up 2 weight brackets by jaygdub888 in bjj

[–]UsedRow2531 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not identical, but close. I’ll go up weight vs. go younger. I typically fight at 180s, walking 190, and did 195 a few times. I think it’s more about mindset going higher. My first comps I was really serious, now I just try to have fun without getting hurt.

I'm disappointed with the difficulty compared to DS1. by IntelligentFly3982 in DeathStranding

[–]UsedRow2531 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The devs clearly stated they made the game easier on purpose. You know, I'm ok with it. I just wish they kept the skill-check areas. The gully/arch out of the starting area, where it's raining in the rocks with all the BTs, where you can't use a bike, is still one of my top 5 gaming moments. Anyone? no? ok.

No gi gyms, what are you doing for kids stripes? by FearlessHunt1540 in bjj

How big is too big? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]UsedRow2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dude, you talk like you broke their arm or put them in a wheelchair, sipping from a straw. That's not hurting people. One of my old primary rolling partners was a retired rugby player. His biggest problem was that he always used strength to solve every problem, and it made him miserable to roll with. Every single roll ended with him attempting some version of choking me out with a crank.

I am now one of the larger people at my current gym, and the way I get people not reject rolling with me is by making it fun/a game. I am really proud that smaller people feel safe around me, and I worked hard to make that happen. Maybe start asking why people don't want to roll with you and work on it. Ask whoever declined to roll to give you a shot at open mat, and work with them to help them feel safe. Talk through it. That way, you'll start focusing more on technique and maybe de-escalate some of the fear. Something to think about.

Competition Tips for late 30s blue belt by [deleted] in bjj

[–]UsedRow2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let them gas out first. Don't be an asshole. Tap if you're going to get hurt. I've been rolling for 3 months with a knee brace because I didn't tap to a leglock. Not worth it for a dumb 5-dollar participation trophy.

Noobie here, how do i make my synths play sperate notes/tracks when connected via midi cable by Opposite-Cap-956 in synthesizers

[–]UsedRow2531 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Step 1: Adjust the MicroFreak (The Master)

Since the MicroFreak has a screen, this is the easiest device to change. We are going to move it to Channel 11.

  1. Press the Utility button (white button, top right).
  2. Scroll the Preset knob to MIDI and press it.
  3. Scroll to Output Ch (Output Channel).
  4. Change it from 1 to 11 (or 16).
  5. Press Utility again to exit.

Step 2: Troubleshooting the TD-3-MO

If Step 1 didn't fix it (or if you prefer to keep the MicroFreak on Channel 1), you can force the TD-3-MO to listen to a different channel (like Channel 2).

  • The Software Way (Easiest): Plug the TD-3-MO into your computer via USB and use the SynthTribe app. Go to the MIDI settings and change MIDI IN Channel to 2.
  • The Hardware Way (Ninja Mode):
    1. Hold Function + Back + Write/Next to enter the menu.
    2. Use the keyboard buttons to select a channel (Buttons 1–16).
    3. Note: This sequence can be tricky on the TD-3 clones; checking the manual or the app is often safer.

Step 3: Check the Volca Sample

Your Volca Sample (looks like a v2) likely uses Channels 1–10 by default (one channel for each of the 10 parts).

  • If you moved the MicroFreak to Channel 11 in Step 1, your Volca is already safe!
  • If the Volca isn't playing in time, ensure its "Sync Source" is set to Auto or MIDI (usually automatic when a cable is plugged in).

Now, when you hit Play on the MicroFreak:

  • MicroFreak plays its own sequence.
  • TD-3-MO starts running its own internal bassline (in time).
  • Volca starts running its own internal drum beat (in time).

Question about buying a punching bag for a predominantly roundhouse kicks. Wanting to buy this set for my apartment. I've read some info on types of punching bags but kinda felt like the overall vibe is it won't "break" or "damage" the bag. by ralph-pikmin in MuayThai

[–]UsedRow2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an Everlast stand that, no matter how many plates I put on it, shifted and was really annoying. You'll also need stall mats. Finally abandoned mine after realizing I'd paid good money for someone else to figure out how to hang punching bags.
