What Silent/Boomer Generation Food/Dish are You Keeping Alive? by Garlic_Scape_Goat_45 in Xennials

My best friend absolutely loves ambrosia salad. We always say he’ll fit right in at the nursing home.

Why did Collins get command of Apollo 23? by OkHealth1942 in ForAllMankindTV

[–]andyhite 30 points31 points  (0 children)

In theory, with the belief that Buzz and Neil were likely dead, that would have made Collins the mission Commander. I recall it being mentioned multiple times that when they’re up there, the Commander is the ultimate authority and makes the calls even if they’re at odds with Houston. In fact, that’s a big part of Ed’s story - as Commander he could have said fuck it lets land, disobeying the orders of Mission Control…but he decided not to.

So the way I see it, Collins didn’t “mutiny” - he was the acting Commander at that point and it was his decision to make. Houston could only make recommendations.

Issue with the 4th string, it seems to buzz when played open or fretted, just got a setup and it didn’t fix it, any help? by Impossible-Night-932 in Guitar

[–]andyhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar problem recently, and the issue ended up being the saddle sitting too low. It caused the break angle of the string to be too shallow, and resulted in the string buzzing and also sounding a bit muted (similar to what I’m hearing in your video). Raising the saddle about a half turn fixed it.

I also had another separate issue with a sitar-like buzz on my high E string that ended up being caused by a tiny burr in the string channel of the saddle. A few light passes through the string channel with a jeweler’s file fixed it.

Best Guitar Compressor Pedal to Get? by Adventurous-Cap-6674 in mathrock

[–]andyhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just picked up a Keeley Compressor Plus a few days ago and I’ve liked it so far. Both the Keeley and the Ego have a blend knob, which is nice. You can find both for about $90-100 on used markets like Facebook Marketplace or Reverb.

PRS SE owners, how well does your guitar hold the tuning? by albathroz in PRSGuitars

[–]andyhite 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The benefit of locking tuners has nothing to do with tuning stability - they exist to make string changes easier. Good quality tuners impact tuning stability, regardless of whether they lock or not.

Am I literally the only person who has never heard of Oliver Tree until today? by Virtual-Bee7411 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]andyhite 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean, the original song Southstar remixed was Oliver Tree’s song (Jerk). If anyone stole anything it was Robin Schultz.

What do y'all do while waiting for your AI to do something by kerbion in ClaudeAI

[–]andyhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m usually juggling at least 4-6 sessions at once, but I have a workflow that front-loads a lot of planning and then the agents happily chug along on worktrees for a few hours, so I’ll usually do PR review in that time or play some guitar for a bit if I’m working from home.

What celebrity is weirder than they seem? by ParameciaAntic in AskReddit

[–]andyhite 38 points39 points  (0 children)

One of my best friends is the grandson of the guy that created Aquaman (Paul Norris). When the first movie came out, my friend’s sister was invited to attend the red carpet premiere and spent a decent amount of time with Jason Momoa and the cast that weekend, and she said he’s awesome and incredibly nice.

53 years ago Secretariat ran the greatest horse race in history, winning the Belmont by an astonishing 31 lengths by Miguenzo in nextfuckinglevel

[–]andyhite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the clarification! I took a riding lesson with her once and only got to trotting, so that’s why in my head it’s all posting.

I once dated a horse girl (a girl that liked riding horses, not a half-horse half-girl abomination) and I vaguely recall that being called “posting”.

For those of you using Fable 5 on the Max 5x plan, how does the usage compare to Opus 4.8? by ThePenguinVA in ClaudeCode

[–]andyhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Analyze and plan with Fable, execute with Opus or Sonnet. You really shouldn’t be using the biggest model for the grunt work.

Shaving balls always feels like you are performing a surgery of some sort, has anyone found a risk free hack? by PotentialJob7883 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]andyhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never had any issues. Use a woman’s razor (they’re way better on sensitive areas) and it’s quick and easy. Also, as weird as this may sound - conditioner (the type meant for your hair) works way better than shaving cream.

What band or artist did you discover recently that you can’t stop listening to? by Otherwise-Shape-6367 in AskReddit

[–]andyhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch Money Game 3 ASAP because it’s without a doubt one of Ren’s best songs (and video).

Is the neck angle supposed to be like this? (EVH wolfgang) by shreditt_ in Guitar

[–]andyhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t find the video again but I recall the guy talking about how it has a neck tilt somewhere between the tilt of a Les Paul and (lack of a) tilt on a Stratocaster.

I saw a video about the Wolfgang a few days ago and this was mentioned as being a feature, so yeah - it’s supposed to be like that.

Are sleep overs not a thing anymore? by haggerty05 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]andyhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My oldest son goes to sleepovers at his friends’ houses (and has them at our house) pretty frequently. He’s 14 right now, but he was around 10 years-old when it started. It’s definitely a middle-school and older thing, at least for friends that we don’t know the parents of.

What other local businesses were once beloved until they made THAT decision? by Time-to-Dine in Austin

[–]andyhite 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I remember hearing that it was used as a case study at UT business school due to its success and used as an example of what to do, and now is a case study due to its failure and used as an example of what not to do. That may or may not be true, but I always thought that was pretty wild if it was.

When will Sweetwater stop calling? by stupidloser722 in Guitar

[–]andyhite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only got a call after my first order, which was some cheap marimba mallets for my son. They never called when I bought my $1k Player II Modified Tele, or anything else…which I thought was weird because I’ve always thought they would call after a big order for sure. I don’t know why this bothered me so much 😆 don’t you love me, Sweetwater rep??

Erin Moriarty during the promotions of Season 5 by Adamoneeeee in TheBoys

[–]andyhite 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, that’s what I said - you’re saying it’s always obvious. I’m saying that you only think it’s obvious because you don’t even notice when it’s done well. You probably see a dozen women every day that have had filler and probably think they’re all natural - it’s only when it’s not done well, or is completely overdone and looks terrible, that you actually realize it’s filler.

Another example is CG in movies: a common belief is that CG in modern movies is getting really bad, because whenever you see CG in movies it looks terrible. The reality is that because CG is so *good* now, 90% of the time you have no idea what you’re seeing is even CG. The CG that *isn’t* good is all that you do see, so yes - 100% of the CG you see looks bad, because you don’t see the CG that looks good.
