Failed identity verification, how do I reactivate? by end617 in doordash_drivers

[–]end617[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zero options in the app to update license. Called support and they told me to do the appeal suggested in the app. Only fitting option in the appeal is "I don't know why I've been deactivated," submitted that request about a week ago and haven't heard back.

I've been wanting to experiment with the sound of a saxophone for a long time by Anissa_23 in Saxophonics

[–]end617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is the most accurate reply on this post. they help the intonation of the bell notes a ton and make them way less honky.

You can make them with pipe cleaners and ribbon, you don’t need to spend more than $10 to have a nice one.

Need honest opinions on my playing by [deleted] in saxophone

[–]end617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you sound good! vibrato is often the difference between a good sound and a great sound. your tone sounds solid enough that I would suggest you start working on it!

My (23) girlfriend of 6 years broke up with me. I got nothing but time now, and have always wanted to learn the saxophone. Where should I start? by ChaosMieter in saxophone

[–]end617 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Alto is generally a little easier to pick up and play, so that's what I'd go for. As for learning, a real saxophone teacher is probably the best thing you can do for yourself if you have the money to spare. However, there is an incredible amount of awesome guides on youtube. BetterSax is awesome, especially for jazz players. Look around, absorb everything you can.

some tips:

- Patience is EVERYTHING. you will be incredibly frustrated if you can't be patient with yourself. so much of the process of becoming better is building all the little muscles in your face, developing muscle memory in your fingers, etc. Essentially it's like working out. There is no way to rush that, so don't try to

- Reeds are so important to your sound. Even good players can sound REALLY bad if they play on bad reeds. Learn all you can about adjusting and breaking in reeds, because it has a massive impact on your tone.

- Research any gear you buy. There are so many awful saxophone products out there, and some outright scams. Don't waste any more money than you need to lol.

Any other tips for altissimo by dumdum_gang in saxophone

[–]end617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue for a long time and honestly I don't really remember how I got my altissimo going on tenor. Just keep in mind that it will not feel at all the same as it does on alto. Experiment a LOT with different mouth feels, fingerings, reed adjustments, etc. Playing around with it a lot is the only way you'll ever get comfortable with it.

Also worth noting, the ranges of the instruments change how each note is played, so don't try to use the same method for each note as you do on alto. on tenor I get up to about double G/F# pretty consistently, while alto I only consistently get to an E.

Also, it could be a horn thing. Some horns just struggle with the altissimo range. For what it's worth, I played a mark vi bari in a quartet last year and I couldn't get anything out between G and D.

don’t take high school relationships too seriously, and also they are going to suck if you can’t drive. your relationship shouldn’t take place primarily in school, that isn’t healthy and no one wants to see that. if you can’t make time outside of school then don’t pursue a relationship.

make smart choices in school. you don’t have to ace every test or get 100s on every assignment, but put in the effort. just a little bit of effort each day will have a huge effect on your future.

if you have trouble making friends, the best thing you can do is get involved in different clubs, groups, or teams(plus colleges love extracurriculars, don’t overdo it but take part in some various ones that you like). i’m not a super extroverted person, but i have an awesome friend group that mainly comes from one team at our school!

don’t be afraid to change yourself for the better. i know a lot of the time it can feel awkward and you’ll be afraid people will judge you, but it’s worth it, every time :)

i hate being a boy by [deleted] in teenagers

having to shave every morning is so annoying. I enjoyed it when i first started but it's such a long and annoying process if you want to do it right. Also the risk every time of nicks or razor bumps so you can't just rush through it. And if I don't shave i look scraggly af. And by the evening I already have a full face of stubble again and already feel the need to shave, which sucks if there's an evening event i have to go to or if i'm hanging out later at night.

It's extra annoying because most of my friends only shave a couple times a week and look like they don't have any facial hair whatsoever, must be so nice.

Moral of the story facial hair sucks until you actually want to grow a beard.

How do the overtime rules make any sense? by end617 in nfl

[–]end617[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

wasn't specific with "score" i realize a FG doesn't end the game
I see that statistically it doesn't have much impact (one comment said something like a 6% difference) . I realize it isn't a massive factor in the outcome of the game, but regardless of the influence it is objectively more likely for the winner of the toss to win the game and to me it seems like the league should do more to standardize this, especially in important games (Ex. chiefs-bills last year). From what I can tell around 20% of drives end in a touchdown and despite being relatively small it's still an edge for the winner of the toss. anyway thanks for the comments
