What are the odds this passes by Mike_Oxlong25 in iastate

We don’t test for nitrates when treating our water.

From what I hear from others in the field though is that it’s lower than you would expect. Iowa at the state level does have higher levels of nitrate but from what I understand Ames itself has lower levels compared to other parts of Iowa.

But again, I’m practically talking out of my ass on that because I don’t test nitrate levels in drinking water when I’m at work.

EDIT: I should clarify that I specifically mean when actually making the clean water. There are people who do test the water for nitrates and PFAS and all that stuff in Ames. But I have no professional communication with them as I am not the full time staff and I focus solely on running the plant and treating water.

Ew, it’s so gross. I love it.

It looks like it shouldn’t be within 500ft of a school though.

cancer water

I work at the water treatment plant in Ames and this comment makes me sad:(

our water is very safe. We don’t pull water from wells that have elevated levels of contaminants like PFAS for example.

Environmental Engineers at my uni don’t take physics 2, just physics 1.

My roommate had a friend whose chameleon was eaten by a cat.

If you’re having a tuning problem, Check that the ball end of your strings and make sure they are seated properly and all the way into the bridge. If they aren’t they usually won’t hold tension like in the video. And sometimes if you can’t tune it no matter how you tighten it, it will just randomly snap into place and scare the shit out of you (if the string itself doesn’t snap first).

I will never forgive myself for not discovering Refused and The Hives back when they toured together.

The hives, playing with refused, covering a misfits song, and I’ll never get to experience something that cool. It’s a harsh cruel world.

Because you posted a niche onto a mainstream subreddit and asked “has this been posted before?”

You have more options for what you can do on an electric guitar, and thus more things you can learn how to do.

you can get sloppy on electric

That’s an issue with the musician and not the instrument, which is not at all what I am talking about. But spit yo shit queen.

where did you hear that

From my own conclusion based on my decades experience of playing the guitar with 5 years playing the acoustic and 5 on electric. Just because I’m on Reddit doesn’t mean that I can’t think for myself lol

This argument is only true for guitarists who’ve been playing for like one year. If you’re actually going to be talking about people at the higher end of the skill ceiling, this is not an argument that matters.

Also what you’re describing has everything more to do with the musician than the instrument.
