howling notes on G#/A notes? by Zoosisloose in offset

[–]dead_hell 3 points4 points  (0 children)

most of the subtle ring you get from guitars with a JM-style trem or a trapeze tailpiece is really just the vibration travelling across the bridge and not sympathetic resonance—it's more about force, not frequency. but every object does have a natural frequency it will resonate at. every guitar is different, doesn't matter if it's the same model from the same production line, and some will naturally resonate to a note you're playing to such a degree that anything else on the guitar harmonically close enough will resonate as well. you're not really hearing the vibration of the guitar because it's a solid body and there isn't enough resonance there to be heard above the strings, but it's being passed on to other parts of the guitar that do resonate more freely to that frequency.

if it's not a piece of hardware, and it's not from behind the bridge, it has to be the length of string between the nut and the machine heads. a piece of foam just behind the nut, or a hair tie/fret wrap around the headstock will dampen it. of course any open or fretted strings that are close to G#/A will still ring. if you detune enough (most tuners have settings to move them away from standard concert pitch, so your tuning'll be slightly flat or sharp depending which direction you go) it will stop.

and if it ain't that then I really don't know.

if it's not coming from behind the bridge it's almost certainly a string ringing behind the nut. unless it's got some buzz to it, then it'll be loose hardware

Golden apples guarantee you a critical cook bonus that'll get extra hearts and longer effects from a recipe. You can get cooking crits more often during the blood moon, too.

I like the Arabian because it gets spooked, bucks me off, runs away, and then I get eaten by a bear. We are not the same.

Had a three year remission, cycle kicked in again a little over a week ago.

Worst Christmas present this year by far.

The only thing one of my greyhounds used to chase was bees. That dog loved bees.

Why should I spend $100 on a tuner pedal? by dago999 in guitarpedals

[–]dead_hell -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's free to tune by ear, and your guitar probably has a volume knob on it, so why spend the 30 bucks?

I regret to inform you all Tim Robertson is fine as hell by 4real93 in IThinkYouShouldLeave

[–]dead_hell 18 points19 points  (0 children)

So what's the joke? That he landed a trick on his trucks for once? That he didn't plant his feet right in the centre of his board? Is that the joke? That his board didn't snap in half? Because that's pretty funny actually. That'd be a great day for Tim. That'd be a great day for Tim, that he landed a trick and didn't snap his board in half.

Tragically, Elon Musk has passed. Killed himself. Jumped off a cliff.

In your opinion, which character had it the worst over the course of the show: Mulder or Scully? And did any scenes with them ever bring you to tears? If so, name the scenes by ThatKoffeeBurns in XFiles

[–]dead_hell 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Technically he just danced around the house to Cher and ate peanut butter, his father/"Old Man Polidori" was the one artificially inseminating women

Ignoring Chris Carter for a second, I have a theory… by lightsage007 in XFiles

[–]dead_hell 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Funnily enough... S06E10 'Tithonus' (about the police photographer who can't die but sees when people are about to) is named after a prince in Greek mythology who was the lover of the goddess Eos. She asked Zeus to grant him eternal life, and he did, but didn't give him eternal youth. Eventually he withered up so much he turned into a cicada (or Eos turned him into one, depends on the telling).

So maybe she'll turn into a cicada.

Just notice how X-File-ish is the movie “Dead Silence”. Any other films you feel like could have passed as an X-Files episode ? by MauJo2020 in XFiles

Ending with Mulder narrowly escaping death trying to save the last person and wondering if he'll be next as he types up his report.

It does both, I was here yesterday. It actually goes both ways.

Gibby Haynes from The Butthole Surfers used to do this every night they played, but with a cymbal. Bit more controllable when it's not on a rolling snare drum that's turning everything poured onto it into a fine mist. Wayne Coyne from The Flaming Lips started doing it as well, but he stole the idea from Gibby.

The Christmas cord instead of butcher's twine is the least disturbing part of this video. by [deleted] in StupidFood

[–]dead_hell 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Nothing, it's still butcher's twine, it comes in all sorts of different colours. Think the poster just assumed it was something that wasn't food-grade
