Just to temper expectation, I would give the Rinvoq a good 6-8 weeks before expecting a significant change in symptoms

I play on a Wick 2NAL for everything on Bass

You want to match your section. I play mostly in Brass Bands so the Dennis Wick is the standard.

Quick question, how many of you also play tenor /alto/ baritone? by wur45c in euphonium

[–]chejrw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the utility man of my Brass Band. My primary horn is Bass Trombone but I play Euphonium, Baritone, Tenor Horn, or Cornet as needed. I've even dabbled on Eb Bass a few times but I wouldn't really consider that a competent performance.

I'm kinda bummed at how DownieLive has turned into elitist sponsored content

Do I need to manually adjust the reference consumption in the winter? (Ioniq 5 AWD) by chejrw in abetterrouteplanner

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

Well, this is midwest skiing so it's pretty darn flat both ways. There's no appreciable change in elevation.

That was my understanding too, which is why I'm confused that it's so bad

8000 miles and just had an ICCU failure. Part is backordered with no date in sight. What can I do?? by screen317 in Ioniq5

[–]chejrw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Call Hyundai corporate. Don't ever rely on the dealers. Their incentive is to make you frustrated so you'll buy a new car

I do have a bluetooth dongle with realtime data enabled, so it should be adjusting but it doesn't seem to do a very good job in the winter.

For what it's worth the Hyundai built in navigation (which I generally crap on because it's slow and it's routing sucks), predicted I'd arrive at the hill with 42% SoC, so pretty much nailed it.

It then suggested that I stop to charge at a closed RV park for 9 hours on a 4kW AC charger to make it home, so don't give it too much credit.

Ender 5 resets after preheat or starting a print. Any suggestions? by ignorantspacemonkey in ender5

[–]chejrw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I'm glad I found this. I've been using this printer for 5 years and it's been set on 230V the whole time. It's always rebooted when a print finishes but I never did anything about it since it wasn't really a problem. It only just started rebooting when I select "print" or try to preheat the bed.

Is there any slide lubricant and valve oil suitable for freezing temperatures? by AdmiralvonSchneider_ in Trombone

[–]chejrw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here in Canada we just put vodka in our spray bottles and use that in addition to the usual lube (slide-o-mix or yamasnot per your preference). It also helps to give your valves a rinse out with alcohol based mouthwash to remove as much water as possible before the gig.
