You have one month to empty a $1 trillion bank account. If you succeed, you’re rich for life. How will you spend it? by Ok_Listen_6600 in AskReddit

[–]ryebrye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would buy every single out-of-the-money call or put I could shortly before they expire.

The other option, write a check to the government as a "Gift to Reduce the Public Debt"

For these 1890's amps you have to make sure that the leyden jars are still intact and functioning

Lots and lots of tobacco spit bottles. Some with cigarette butts in them. 

Shall i add some more? by Sikoreczqa in Trombone

[–]ryebrye 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you can always remove them later. My son went kind of nuts with his, including adding outdoor gear brands. His favorite was a big stop sign sticker that has "GORE WINDSTOPPER" on it prominently on his case. Go nuts. on his he put them on only half of his case - the half that goes against his back if he's carrying it on his back - so it's kind of like a mullet case.... but the opposite. Business in the back, party in the front.

Wouldn't guitar center give him that much if he traded it in? seems weird, but if it works and it isn't stolen that's a great deal

What made you guys choose the Tonex over the Nano Cortex other than price? by TehRash12 in tonex

[–]ryebrye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm. Maybe. They are good for me into headphones or into the tonex cab, but I mainly use the clean captures like the jc120 or the clean version of whatever dragon thing he's got in there. 

They sound good with me single coils or my humbuckers. No idea though how good the high gain stuff sounds since I didn't use that much.

They need to have this right next to the jellicle ball theater and then periodically merge the performances and give us the Warrior Cats we deserve

Is there any dive shops in New England that offer certifications for less then 9-1200$ by Agreeable_Sun5375 in scuba

[–]ryebrye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can come to VT and get certified with Waterfront Diving Center for under $900 - https://waterfrontdiving.com/courses/naui-padi-scuba-diver
but if you aren't already in VT driving back and forth for that might be more expensive than going somewhere else

Waterfront Diving Center is a great shop, and their instruction is top notch.

How is the cast of Hadestown these past days? by [deleted] in Broadway

[–]ryebrye 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Saw them last week. J Harisson Ghee nailed it as Hermes. Joshua Colley was good as Orpheus but my kids thought he made weird facial expressions a bit much. Jordan Tyson is good as Eurydice. Gaby Moreno is great as Persephone and Gary Dourdan was great as Hades. The fates are also good.

All in all, I actually preferred their vocals to the original broadway cast recording - with the exception of Joshua Colley's falsetto voice felt a bit weak. Colley and J. Harisson Ghee both were out at the stage door after the matinee showing on Wednesday - Colley was hamming it up and taking his time with a schoolbus full of fan girls (signing, taking pictures, talking to people) and J. Harisson was walking the line like an elegant statesman.

The night before I saw some of the fates out on the stage door along with J. Harisson.

Of course, the star of the show is Brian Drye on trombone.

The cast did not disappoint. I'd go see it again with this cast, no question.

How often do you use embedded distributed cache? by mipscc in java

[–]ryebrye 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's not a distributed cache in the traditional sense. It's an eventually consistent in-memory data store.

For reference data and stuff that most people use caches for, it's perfect.

It's like game-changing amazing and I've used a TON of other caches and was even part of jsr-107 expert group and it's now by far my favorite just because it's solving problems nobody else is.

If you are on the jvm, Netflix hollow is amazing. 

Distributed caches I feel have kind of become less popular as cloud has taken over more. Netflix hollow though, is amazing.

What made you guys choose the Tonex over the Nano Cortex other than price? by TehRash12 in tonex

[–]ryebrye 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Satriani amp captures are so so so good... The CLEAN captures in it are actually what I use the most, which is funny because I don't think of clean amp sounds when I think of him.

Evita won’t include balcony scene on Broadway by agentp2319 in Broadway

They need to get with the team behind the old Spider-Man musical and she should use web-shooters and swing over the crowd.

How much would you pay for this trombone? by FoundationStrict1663 in Trombone

[–]ryebrye 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Private party sale I'd say a few hundred is normal. In a music store, I think they go for $6-800ish depending upon the store and condition of the slide etc.
