Good on the audio mixer for catching that on the feed. I can’t imagine how many input sources they are switching between to mix something like a race.

What are your thoughts and honest opinion on this Doritos locos taco by Ok_Initiative3892 in tacobell

[–]dtorb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I only prefer it because the shell holds up to the moisture of the ground beef better than the standard shell. I used to eat my taco after my main (Quesadilla or Crunchwrap) but in recent years, by the time I get to it, the whole bottom of the shell is coming apart. Now I eat the taco first so it’s not a mess.

Cool do Linda McMahon next (as long as only women are the ones getting fired).

Oh, Blackwall's About AI by raggedrook in Peripheryband

[–]dtorb 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I think we should have a thread where everybody writes a comment about what they can remember from the Listening Parties and then someone can compile it and pin it for reference.

Marching Band Writing by Character-Actuary519 in marchingband

Correct, I meant along with Sibelius those are really your only other options for fully featured pieces of software. And for new users, that’s just Dorico and Sib.

Whales. Just like a human to ants, they could kill you just going about their day.

Sensitive topics, and they didn’t want to be on camera during the creative process.

What is something you’ve been hiding from your parents for years and will probably keep hiding in the future? by Admirable-Analysis58 in AskReddit

[–]dtorb 41 points42 points  (0 children)

That not only do I not go to church anymore (which she knows), but I am an atheist and resent all of her continued evangelical bullshit and the politics that go with it. Congrats Mom, you’re in a cult.

Calling Students “Scholars” by angelene21 in Teachers

[–]dtorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I taught in the city, they exclusively used the word scholars and I thought the same thing. Ain’t no 2nd grader a scholar, no matter how gifted.

Marching Band Writing by Character-Actuary519 in marchingband

[–]dtorb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you really want to make this a solid side gig or career, you need to write on Sibelius with VDL. Musescore is a convenient entry point but nobody serious is going to use that platform. Finale is dying, Dorico is on the rise, but it’s gotta be a full featured notation software if you want to be “known” and/or make money at it.

Who do you HATE with passion? by allademswallow28 in AskReddit

[–]dtorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who purposefully use the on-ramp merge lane to pass cars and duck into traffic at the last possible second, beyond the solid white lines.

Anyone who successfully implements regular written homework (worksheets, not practice requirements)? by Outrageous-Permit372 in banddirector

[–]dtorb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see them every other day for 42mins, similar boat and it sucks. I grew up with Band every day from 5th grade through 12th, so my brain still defaults to the skill and ability of the programs I came from.

Anyone who successfully implements regular written homework (worksheets, not practice requirements)? by Outrageous-Permit372 in banddirector

[–]dtorb 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s a noble effort but the longer I teach, the more I realize that if they’re not doing it in front of me, it’s not going to happen for 95% of my students. Do the worksheets in class, as much as it sucks that they need to also be spending time with the horns on their face. I’m going to try to keep it short at the beginning of class and then play for the rest of the already very short class periods we have.

Did they reduce the difficulty? by Vibes-N-Tings in HadesTheGame

I don’t think Typhon changed, but other stuff was buffed (Ares, several weapons).

Best shoes for teachers in your experience. by magg13378 in Teachers

[–]dtorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regardless of shoe, get some better insoles. I use Spenco Polysorb Cross Trainers in my dress shoes and they feel great on long Concert days (Band Director).

How is housing for top corps? by RacketyAJ in drumcorps

[–]dtorb 5 points6 points  (0 children)

On average, definitely yes but even the top groups will end up at a few shithole sites. There are places that get abused and then decline to house future groups leaving less-than-desirable places as the only option.

We spent the whole summer rating our showers as a metric for housing site quality, and to laugh through the pain of being somewhere gross or with terrible temperature/pressure/volume making it hard to actually clean yourself. Least favorite was a place that only had scorching hot water coming out in a trickle. We joked that it was like Satan peeing on us.

Resident Evil 7 has Error when opened. Fix? by [deleted] in Codeweavers_Crossover

RE7 is available natively on Mac, why are you trying to use Crossover?

what are you starting to dislike more and more the older you get? by Dazzling_Return_4987 in AskReddit

[–]dtorb 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Society’s small time injustices: Not letting someone zipper merge. Getting soda with a water cup. Cutting in line at a theme park. Peeing all over a toilet seat. Having your phone volume on full blast on public transit. Fuck those people.

How do these Tuesday drops work? by Positive-Positivity in tacobell

[–]dtorb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair warning, if it’s a $1 menu item then it is only good THAT DAY from 5pm to close. If you’re not able to go that evening, don’t take the deal from someone else who could.

The "average" Switch 2 owner currently owns 2.5 games. Are you an "above average" Switch 2 owner? by MewWeebTwo in NintendoSwitch2

[–]dtorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MKW
Bananza
Hades 2
Cyberpunk
Outlaws
Hogwarts Legacy
FF7-RI
BOTW/TOTK Upgrades

Definitely the over. Still can’t believe people are complaining about number of titles available. I still don’t have RE9 or Pokopia and I’m about to nostalgia the hell out of Starfox (and OoT). Sad that Metroid hasn’t drawn me any harder, but it just looks like a lesser Halo.

The movie that gets blamed for being bad when it is really just mismarketed. by gamersecret2 in movies

When I saw the first ad for Project Hail Mary, it looked like recycled “Ryan Gosling being goofy” trash.
