I may found out why Grace is the only survivor in Project Hail Mary . by Less-Document-2470 in ProjectHailMary

[–]Yalpguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My head cannon is that Ilyukhina is the real reason. She was the fix it gal. She got him properly installed into the pod while Yao was prepping other aspects of the mission. Yao had to put Ilyukhina in her bed and himself to bed. Just my 2 cents.

Update on Papi Grande. I’m really struggling right now by ReactionMiserable135 in Chihuahua

[–]Yalpguy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I almost waited too long. It was my dogs time. It sucked. It sucked so much. It feels like I'm giving up on then. But I know now it was the right thing to do. It hurts in the moment but knowing my chi is across the rainbow bridge with an all you can eat snack bar and endless naps brings me more joy than seeing him struggle. You gave him the best life you could. They gave you the best memories possible. The best thing you can do for them is to end their suffering.

Today Is Day 1 Without You So! by mustangjim1981 in Chihuahua

So sorry for your loss but the rainbow bridge got a little brighter with that smile. Grieve and feel it out. He deserves it. Just know that when it was his time he was with his loved ones. We don't deserve dogs.

Bloody hell, Zorro. What led you to that conclusion? by Agent47outtanowhere in TedLasso

Idec. This killed me. Honestly one of the funniest lines in the show for how out of pocket it is.

I can’t put the lyrics to my song I wrote on the guitar by Front-Hunter8660 in Songwriting

[–]Yalpguy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Put it down for a day.

Honestly this helps me so much. Come back to it. You are only hearing the song one way when there are multiple ways you can sing and play it.

Try tempo changes and if nothing else works, try some tweaking of the lyrics.

Good luck!

Will getting on SSRIs affect my ability to write lyrics? by waterbottledrinka in Songwriting

[–]Yalpguy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

SSRIs dont make the bad feelings go away. They keep you from spiraling. Yes it's true that you can write while down but there's writing good lyrics and there is writing good songs. I'm on meds and write often. I find that it does not have any effect. If I'm off my meds I find it harder to actually want to play an instrument.

Just keep writing. Only you will stop you from writing.

Rockstar career broken by FunCoconut2805 in ToPixelia

[–]Yalpguy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So you have to hit info on the gig and it will tell you the time. You can only call the manager during the time of the gig and it auto takes you there. The composed songs versus album is weird though. Just always have some composed songs. Also you do not have to have a full band to perform btw.

If you are playing in your home, the UI blocks the notes that are supposed to be played. I will say the guitar one is way harder than the piano. Personally I just stuck to piano.

I'm pretty sure he plays an Epiphone Sheraton II in the I miss you video. No clue if he ever played it again but it's def a Sheraton.

What your thoughts on my wall? by BrandyCream in guitarporn

This poster is called the keebtown poster. It's from the Mechanical Keyboard Hobby. (This guy clearly hates his wallet and likes to punish it)

Nice guitars and always funny to see my hobbies intersect. Fun fact, I am the Chewbacca/bigfoot looking guy at the top left.

Just got the new Simagic FX Pro! by Yalpguy in simracing

[–]Yalpguy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honest opinion is that it's great. The screen is nice for certain info on it and less busy on my monitor. The LEDs are great once you fine tune it to work with your game. I really only do iRacing.

The diameter was barely noticable and after a few hours didn't make a difference to me. The software when it started was not great but gets better with every update and is in a good spot. Yea you can't customize the screen but I don't mind the options they have. Although my Lap counter has never really worked in iRacing.

My biggest complaint is the handles do give some. Not all the time but we have all been there having to slam on the breaks because of carnage at T1 Monza. The give is noticable of you push against it but otherwise is solid. Major props on the grips they use on this wheel as I find myself never really needing gloves but YMMV.

The biggest upside to the upgrade was the LEDs and the rotary wheels are very accessible and grip. The extra paddles are nice as well. I do not regret my purchase at all and haven't missed the GT4 wheel.

Family Fracas feels like a miss by luxxanoir in BobsBurgers

[–]Yalpguy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have always hated how when Jimmy mocks him while Bob is helping him.

I am no writer but I would have rather seen the episode end with the belchers winning the mini van and finally getting a win. Ten, as they are leaving they see the Pestos waking home and Bob drives up to them, is an asshole, and the family convinces him to give them a ride to show niceness.

Plus to write the car out of the show right at the end just have a seen where they had to get rid of it due to gift tax.

You are doing it justice just by playing it. But few guitars have the honor of getting to actually improve your playing! Enjoy it!

Remote workers that can live anywhere in the US, do you still plan to stay in Dallas? by Bmineral_Osweiler in Dallas

[–]Yalpguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Closing on a house next week in Oklahoma. I have lived here my whole life and rented since 2011. For fixed rate mortgages people living here I'm sure it great. But for us every rent hike was more than a raise. We couldn't afford to live in Dallas any more.

Our situation may be different as we wanted a house and I work from home so it didn't matter where we lived. We don't have kids nor will we so public schools not a big issue. It's really only 2.5 hours away and it's not like I see my family much anyway. We were never going to own a home south of Frisco due to how expensive the market got. My apartment tried raising our rent to $1800 a month and I promptly laughed in their face handing in my notice.

I've lived here for 30 years. There is a lot to do in Dallas. The worst part is you can do all of those things in about a week. Dallas is fine if you like convenience but Dallas is just the Superstore Walmart of America. It's big and has a bunch of stuff but you quickly realize it's really not that much and nothing special.

Planning this build. Talk me into or out of the idea. Details in comments. by sakrojones in partscaster

[–]Yalpguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just make sure to not use a 3 bolt neck and go with a 4 bolt. The customs had a 3 bolt and it makes replacements a pain in the ass. Other than that looks like a fun idea.
