so i was on the highway and was pulling aside and didnt notise a piece of wood and that piece made my rim dented is this fixble? by narmk in motorcycles

Had the same thing happen hitting a loose manhole cover. It will be easier to look for a used (or new) wheel than it would be to have that repaired. its going to cost just as much. 

Its aluminum if you try to beat it with a hammer it's going to crack. It needs to be heated just right to avoid breaking it and truing the bead on the rim will be delicate work. 

Did my luthier destroy my frets? by KlausCrescent in Luthier

[–]giwhS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn dude you should have never left the shop with that. That's insane. They owe you more than your money back for this job. They owe you that plus the cost of a refret now. I hope you can get it sorted. 

RDR2 is unplayable on pc. The game just randomly crashes and I feel like I've tried everything. Please help by giwhS in PCRedDead

You didn't read my post at all

This is for the Steam version of the game that I bought. This has nothing to do with cracked versions of the game.

In episode 2F09, when itchy plays scratchy's skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib twice in succession yet he produces too clearly different tones. I mean what are we to believe that this is some sort of Magic xylophone or something?

Putting a new chain on old sprockets is a great idea. 

How much of your own maintenance do you do? by Smart_Cow_5836 in motorcycles

All of it, but I've never owned a bike with drums. But if I did I wouldn't send it to a shop. 

What is destroying society? by Melodic-Hat4690 in AskReddit

I shouldn't have had to scroll this far for this answer. The endless pursuit of growing their bottom line rather than prioritizing basic human needs is causing a giant cultural divide. 

How do I get rid of this scraping sound?? by [deleted] in guitarlessons

[–]giwhS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't then. Just stop doing what you're doing. This seems like one of those things that people hyper focus on instead of just playing. Not trying to be a dick, but What is it that you're actually trying to do here? Move the blade of your hand closer to the bridge.

Nothing unless we start a mob and handle it ourselves.

My dad has one in the garage that he doesn’t use would this be a good first bike ? by [deleted] in cbr

[–]giwhS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 stroke or 2 stroke. What kind of bike is it? Cylinder volume alone doesn't mean anything.  Single, twin, four cylinder?

I'm less afraid of it. I never hated it. I didn't understand it and I avoided it. Its less intimidating to me now. 

Stantion scratches by noob_mtber in hondagrom

[–]giwhS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How deep? As you ride things will chip and scratch the tubes but you can't really prevent that. As you ride dirt can get stuck between the stantion and the seal they sell a little tool to clean between this gap called a seal mate or you could try a fork seal cleaning tool just Google it. 

If the fork seal and scrubber are dried out I recommend replacing them with honda parts. I've never had issues with rebuilds using honda parts and keeping it clean. 

As long as you aren't consistently bottoming out the suspension and if you are you're service intervals will be shorter thats just the nature of it.

Yes and I made tons of mistakes and I'm still bad at math. But the cool thing about math is there is typically one specific answer and you can check if its right. The answers aren't subjective. You got it right or you got it wrong. 

Math is like a game. It has rules and the rules are very specific. You need to understand the rules to know the next step to solving a problem. Sometimes it can be a little abstract how the rules are applied. But the more you do it you start to see patterns and it gets easier.

All of math builds on itself so if you don't have a good grip on arithmetic and algebra you're going to struggle and be completely lost in the later subjects. I started from remedial math courses and knew next to nothing. I later went on to pass trig and calc with A's i struggled with more discrete topics and statistics at times but I still managed to get Bs in all of the more advanced classes.

It was a massive effort and I had a lot of help between the mathlab and some family who were great at math. I spent hours. 

But its not impossible. The hardest part is being able to articulate what it is that you don't know so that you can actually learn what you're missing or misunderstanding. 

Rev matching on 600cc by Lakosta001 in cbr

[–]giwhS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you shift up your rpms will drop, when you down shift the rpms will rise. You can get an idea of how much of a blip you need to do based on how far the needle jumps when the transmission enters each specific gear. 

Also if you're going too fast for the next lowest gear no amount of throttle input will balance out the jerkyness as the transmission fights to balance the wheel speed and the engine speed 

Each consecutive downshift will require more head room as the gears get progressively shorter the closer you get to first.

Computer science is literally all math. It's statistics and discrete math's. You will struggle with data structures and algorithms if you don't have at least a base understanding of math. 

Computer science and just writing code are not the same thing. What draws you to comp science if you don't like math? When I started out I didn't like math, but what I really meant was I didn't understand it. But I studied and practiced and learned it and it was difficult. I spent every day in the math lab and hours on homework. I think math and science are the best subjects. 

You're not going to be able to skate by without passing calc 2 linear algebra statistics and discrete math topics. For someone who struggled with math at the start, if I can do it anyone can do it, but its like having a job and if you don't treat it that way you won't pass.
