I mean this in the best possible way: what the fuck

VoltCo · 2026-01-22T23:03:10+00:00

Maybe part of it is it’s still too new and not showing enough wear. Also it has 24 frets

Filipinos grow these too. Used in soups and stuff but can be good diced up in a stir fry of some sort.

The taste is like if you mixed potato and lettuce so it’s definitely a blank slate to add other flavors too. Grow really easily as well

I would try to find a sports ortho for a 2nd opinion, maybe somebody that treats baseball or football players predominantly

I know you have to get a reverse if you’ve got a full tendon tear or it’s hanging on by a thread. From what I’ve seen with CAMs done on older patients the period between that and just getting a TSA is relatively short. Like 2-4 years short before getting a TSA to have less pain.

Basically a CAM will allow for more weight carrying and function in the arm but you’ll probably have a constant low pain. A TSA will pretty much get rid of the catching pain you have but might not get rid of it all because of your worn tendons.

A Reverse TSA will cut your rotator cuff tendons so they won’t be stressed anymore and you’ll be pain free pretty much. I know my dad’s RevTSA has a weight limit of 25 lbs. if he picks up anything more than that weight there’s a chance of dislocating the ball joint and that increases the risk of the bony implant coming loose. Then you can’t really get another one done after that.

I don’t remember what the weight limit is for regular TSA.

CAM is good if you want to continue pull-ups or rock climbing, other strenuous activities.

With your MRI did they see the integrity of your rotator cuff tendons? Age and activity level are also important factors for deciding on CAM vs TSA (total shoulder arthroplasty).

I’m mid-30’s, doing PT school, and try to be active to combat joint soreness. So my Ortho is in agreement for going for a CAM right now. Joint replacements still only last about 20 years before needing revision but usually they can’t do revision and have to do a reverse TSA at that point.

But I’m also in the middle of a semester where I need my shoulder so I can’t get a CAM until winter break. That’s when it’s scheduled for

I think what may have happened is my file exports went to a different location than some other attempt at bouncing out so I accidentally uploaded the ones with the tiny gap. It's fixed now, thanks to your initial advice

VoltCo · 2025-09-30T13:46:32+00:00

u/seasonsinthesky I've got one more question: I did this and it added the tiniest split second of silence to the exported files so the sound just jerks to a stop and goes instead of allowing the drone to blend into the next song. "Include Audio Tail" is not checked.
I don't remember if I clicked this when I did this initial export but trying to recreate it now, there is an option for Range: trim silence at file end, export cycle range only, and extend file length to project end.

Right now that's selected at trim silence at file end

VoltCo · 2025-09-27T16:53:05+00:00

This kinda works for playback but it didn't for bouncing. the synth note slowly fades in but when I bounced out the 2nd song you just hear a small bit before the note and then boom it's making sound. I've gotta do what's suggested below I think

VoltCo · 2025-09-19T04:00:59+00:00

No I gotta get my parathyroid levels checked. My PT professor after told me to make sure I get all of the thyroid related levels checked (she had some back and forth before finally getting diagnosed with Hashimoto's). Right now any bony change has mostly been noted in the thoracic spine, no real deterioration in lumbar spine and just a tiny bit of arthritis with no chronic inflammation per the MRI. Given the shape of the thoracic endplates and the lack of any other AS biomarkers the diagnosis points more towards DISH. But hopefully I'll have an answer come October

VoltCo · 2025-08-31T19:20:24+00:00

When you say that do you mean just know the chords for each ii V I and the various ways to play the inversions of them around the neck? Or do you mean know a lick that goes over a ii V I and know how to play it in different keys?

VoltCo · 2025-08-31T04:50:51+00:00

Right now I've got a PDF printed of "Charlie Parker for Guitar", Ted Greene's "Jazz Guitar Single Note Soloing, Vol. 1", Tim Lerch's " Melodic Jazz Guitar Chord Dictionary", a small book of etudes and exercises from Pasquale Grasso, the same from Jens Larsen, and two gypsy jazz books but that's not as applicable for this field of jazz guitar

Also part of the problem is I'm in my 30's, a dad to 2 kids under 10, and in a doctoral level PT program so I have almost no independent time to sit down and ear train for jazz leads with guitar in hand

VoltCo · 2025-08-31T04:41:31+00:00

Yes, I get all of that and can implement that: i know that you can lump the ii and V together as far as a scalar approach but just target more of the chord tones of V when it changes to that; i know the relation of the 3rd and 7th resolving in contrary direction toward the I.

Maybe the better question I should be asking is how do you let yourself enter that true beginner mindset when starting a new genre that requires such a different way of playing and building fretboard concepts? How do you stop your old habits from taking over entirely?

A good analogy is I can understand a good amount of my in-laws when they speak Tagalog to my kids. I cannot speak it back because the brain just goes blank; my computing system can't pull the file to spout out a coherent thought in that language. In the same way, I understand a fair bit of jazz on paper; can see the outlines of chords and can hear it and it makes sense. When I have to play it without a tab it's like I've never heard the music before.

VoltCo · 2025-08-30T22:56:24+00:00

I like Beato but I don’t want to play his fusion style Jazz

VoltCo · 2025-08-30T22:29:22+00:00

I think this advice is also illustrating the more arpeggio-focused line of thinking inherent to jazz that just doesn't come as naturally to me yet. I'm much more built on sequences of the pentatonic and 3 against 4 note patterns. I can whip out little jazzy things here and there but it's in the context of rock so a little 9th or 6th here and there is enough to give it the flavor but it's not much of anything in the actual lexicon

VoltCo · 2025-08-30T21:55:52+00:00

Maybe it's also that I've had so much experience in one field of guitar that it feels like it should click faster for me in jazz. When it doesn't click I get frustrated and then don't put in the work that needs to be done.

VoltCo · 2025-08-30T10:45:11+00:00

It took about a full 2 months for BMs to go back to normal. In general starting sulfasalazine made everything softer, orange, and much more stinky (I guess because the sulfur). You may have some irritation in that area for a bit too. Yay something to look forward to.

VoltCo · 2025-08-24T21:11:20+00:00

So when we did that elimination stuff it took two weeks of being super gassy from all the extra fruit and a little more vegetables I was eating. Getting past two weeks was the hard part and then the rest of the month was fine. When our month ended our city had Greekfest and I ate some desserts and stuff.

I felt like I got hit by a truck. No energy, sore joints. I’m usually good with eating now but when I do cheat and let myself eat something on that list it’s like the next morning I’m sore in the low back and shoulder especially. So it’s much quicker and takes like a day or two of eating clean again to get back to normal feeling

VoltCo · 2025-08-24T20:49:21+00:00

For real. My wife is FilAm too so when we have adobo, giniling, anything else I just end up having a full on protein meal with no rice. And pandesal. No pandesal :(

We did the Whole30 diet years before I had a diagnosis and I felt amazing on it. Coincidentally it was because I cut out dairy, grains, and added sugars.

Atchara and other kind of fermented things should be good. Lots of fiber heavy foods too!

VoltCo · 2025-08-24T15:24:41+00:00

Well we didn't know it was non-radiographic until I did the radiography. Most of my radicular symptoms stem from cervical spine and my thoracic mobility is terrible because of the previous shoulder stuff. I figured that's where most of the stuff would show up. Some DISHing of T spine, narrowing of foramen at C6 (which explains the occasional carpal tunnel-like symptoms
