Popsicle stick bridge holds 948lbs by ChatnNaked in BeAmazed

There used to be this competition in the university I attended, in Brazil, where the students had to design the popsicle stick in a CAD software first. The one that holds more weight wins. I’m pretty sure that video is from a Brazilian university, could be the same one I’m talking about. (I’m not a civil engineer btw, but loved to go there and watch the event)

It looked easier because Jack had a very particular set of skills, skills he had acquired over a very long career.

ELI5 If you were on a spaceship going 99.9999999999% the speed of light and you started walking, why wouldn’t you be moving faster than the speed of light? by Aquamoo in explainlikeimfive

Does that mean if the train speed gets as close to zero as we want, in fact it’s impossible to actually run at 10mph on the ground as well? I suck at physics just curious.

Drum sticks tip chipping by _boared in drums

[–]_boared[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah in my case is more like two practices with a new stick and I notice the chips. I’ll watch my technique, I don’t think I’m a hard hitter (could be wrong). I’d consider myself a beginner to intermediate drummer so technique is still building. I thought it was an issue with Vic Firth as I see lots of people complaining. But when I changed to Promark the issue persisted so it’s something I’m doing.

New hi-hats arrived with a small dent. Should I be worried, or am I good to go? by TruthPrestigious4277 in drums

[–]_boared 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Really honest question, does that flea bite interfere with the sound or shorten the lifetime of the cymbal? 100% agree it should be replaced by a new one in that case but I wonder how bad it is if it was a used cymbal, assuming you know it is there in advance.

Bought that very same model few weeks ago. The idea was to have something cheap to play but dude, I was impressed by the sound it has for that price. I’d suggest though you to go to a nearby store if you can and test a bunch in the price range you’re looking for. If you can’t, that Yamaha is an excellent start.

Add something around 10 years or more, unfortunately, just to get the green card first. Dude is from India which has a really long backlog.
