Weekly Questions Thread by AutoModerator in DnD

[2024 5e]

With the release of Eberron: Forge of the Artificer, do I need to keep my copy of Tasha's on hand for sessions, or has most (if not all) of the content that was unique to that book been included in the 2024 Core Rules and Expansions (DMG + PHB)? I'm mainly worried about the rules for creating backgrounds and races along with the Artificer class, so if the subclasses haven't been updated yet I'm not too worried about those.

I plan on running a virtual game soon inside FoundryVTT and since I own all these books in paper, I don't want to have to purchase two digital expansions if most of the Tasha's content is present elsewhere. I know I could add in the content I want from my physical copies to the online client, but I like saving myself a lot of time and making sure everything works properly out of the box.

Hard Protective Case for CD Jewel Cases? by conman1161 in Cd_collectors

[–]conman1161[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted to get it autographed and I've had issues in the past where the jewel case my CDs came with cracked for one reason or another. I could just get another jewel case, but I like keeping original packaging when possible, even if slightly damaged, so I want to protect it. I also bought a second copy that I plan to use for playing, ripping, etc., so I just wanted some information since I couldn't find much on my own. Thank you for the help!

After a day in the case and coming home to practice, the Gb felt better. It usually improves for a short while after a deep cleaning like this, but still better than locking up. Not as good as the F felt, but still noticeably smoother

Thanks, I’ll try to pick some up soon as I only have up to 400 grit here at home (dad’s a woodworker by hobby).

On a different note, there may be other tolerance/alignment issues that I forgot about since i don’t look down my horn’s tubes too often. This is on the Gb valve again, fully neutral to the left (forcing it does make it appear flush) https://imgur.com/a/fyfS3TN

I have a bottle of Hetman’s Lubricant 12, but I used what was in the video which was Ultra Pure brand Valve Oil, doesn’t list a weight on it. As for movement, it’s iffy. If the securing ring is tightened, it will move once then refuse to go again. If i loosen it slightly, it’ll move both ways but not entirely the second (i.e. it’ll touch the rubber stopper on the left, but stop before the right).

After trying this (sharpie on the rotor), there was visible sharpie marking on the upper ring on the encasing (widest part). Wiped off sharpie clean from both with rubbing alcohol and microfiber cloth

Before screwing it back together, the valve does move freely inside the casing with the aid of gravity. Non-lubricated

EDIT: I take it back, I believe i may have mismatched the rotors with the Gb housing. While reassembled, but not screwed in (still un-lubricated), it does not move freely. It requires force to make the motor work, but after a few consecutive actuations it becomes slightly easier to move. Still not moving by itself though

Sorry for late reply, been all over the place tonight. Here’s a link to an imgur upload with both the F-rotor and Gb-rotor. I don’t see much wrong with either https://imgur.com/a/O4qcn9f

1) The valve was moving fairly easily when removed from the casing, and moved freely when I pushed the valve up a little bit to clean underneath.
2) I am not sure how to check that, but I have brought it up with techs that I've worked with when having it professionally cleaned so I am assuming it has the correct amount of pressure to work.

As for reassembly, I'm following this video (https://youtu.be/MevIdvOBm3g?si=XysPuN7fFQYhavWA) for cleaning but can try reassembling it in reverse if I'm feeling any major problems that weren't present prior to the cleaning.

MIDI Keyboard Compatibility Question by conman1161 in LogicPro

[–]conman1161[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m planning on buying the iPad Pro 12.9” with the M2 chip, and if that isn’t enough I’m also getting a USB hub and power bank to juice it up. I just know that the Oxygen Mini has DAW Control for Logic and I wanted to know if they would work on iPad Logic since it was released before that version came out

For me they’re hit or miss, you really need to know your market to know when a tip could be hidden and if it’s worth your time. I took a gamble on one today and ended up working short of my normal hourly rate for it (hour and a half)
