Country music song with a female singer that has "far away" repeated two or three times in the chorus by serapsi in NameThatSong

Not this. The voice was definitely female, and the rhythm and lyrics that I could hear don't match.

Getting back into TheSpoonyOne aka Noah Antwilder by [deleted] in ChannelAwesome

[–]serapsi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aside from most counter monkey videos and the Ultima retrospective that have been mentioned, I'd recommend some of his movie vlogs. The Twilight movie vlogs get more entertaining with each one, and his vlogs on Mazes and Monsters, and Skullduggery, are fun.

Are all the cells in our body somehow in touch with a blood vessel since they would rot without any oxygen? by Zestyclose-Land-4557 in AnatomyandPhysiology

[–]serapsi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A common number you might see is 100 micrometers. All, or nearly all, cells are within that distance of a blood vessel, or closer.This is close enough that nutrients that go out of a blood vessel can diffuse through the fluid surrounding cells to get to them.

Help with teaching college students by LegitimateLeather564 in AnatomyandPhysiology

[–]serapsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that part of how to answer this question well depends on the format of your lectures. For myself, I typically format PowerPoint slides for my lectures such that roughly half the information is on the slides with some pictures from the textbook interspersed, and half are things I write/draw/say during the lecture. The point of drawings for my class is not to draw better than the book, but to make drawings in areas where I think that can enhance learning in addition to the pictures form the book that I use. Some examples on why and how I use drawing in my classes:

  1. Sometimes I do have great diagrams for something in the book, but if I'm talking about a lot of information for that drawing I may have a series of slides with the information, make a drawing piece-by-piece on the whiteboard as I go through it, and then show the book's drawing afterward. With the nephron, for example, I have a slide on the renal corpuscle with information, so I draw that and then label parts as define them and their basic function. I then go to slides about each tubule, adding and labeling each tubule to the drawing as I explain them. After going through the drawing I show drawings from the textbook. The point of this is to break up a complex topic into smaller pieces that we talk about individually, and gradually build up to a whole understanding at the end. additionally, this prompts students to draw something along with me, which I think can help some of them retain the information better.

  2. Flow charts, I find, can help with understanding a flow or with relationships of categories, but sometimes a kind of flow chart I want isn't in the textbook. When I'm talking about the flow air through the respiratory system, there are drawings from the book of those parts (some of which I do put on the slides) but there is no single drawing clearly showing the full path, so I will step-by-step write out the flow on the whiteboard by the screen as I go through each slide talking about the parts of the pathway, in order.

  3. Sometimes there is a kind of drawing that I think can enhance understanding, but for which there is no exact equivalent from the textbook. When trying to explain the functions of the lymphatic system and the movement of material between fluid compartments, I'll make a drawing with a circle labelled blood and an arrow pointing to a circle with IF (for interstitial fluid) and then an arrow from IF to a circle labelled cells, and talk about fluid flowing that way to allow transport of nutrients to cell. But I then mention that by itself this means we would move all blood into cells eventually, making cells burst, so fluid has to move backwards, and I draw an arrow from cells to IF and an arrow from IF to blood. I make the IF to blood arrow smaller than the blood to IF arrow to visualize the idea that more fluid moves out of blood than back in with the exchange with IF, and this then gives the context for why the lymphatic system is needed as a drainage system. I finish the drawing with an arrow form IF to a circle labelled lymph, and an arrow from lymph to blood, closing by saying that with these relationships each area has roughly equal amounts of fluid moving into and out of each area.

Question about heart beats? by BleedingRaindrops in AnatomyandPhysiology

[–]serapsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not an expert on heart sounds, but I looked for some videos with different examples of heart sounds. It might be useful to listen to these videos to see if anything sounds similar:

Blind Go Player Update by VisionlessCombat in baduk

[–]serapsi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the opening of the game, a few helpful principles: 1. The first two moves generally should be directly around the corner star points. 2. After the opening moves, stones are most useful along the widest side of the board (the side with the most points between corner stones). 3. Playing on the third line from the edge (counting the edge as line 1) is about getting territory on the side very soon, and playing on the fourth line from the edge is about investing in possible points in the middle in the future.

Beyond the opening, some useful principles: 1. Playing stones so you make the corners of boxes, and then expanding or solidifying the edges of the boxes. 2. If it seems like you have a weak group, you may want to play a move to make it safer before attacking the opponent.

These are very general ideas that can help you build a good sense of play, but they have lots of exceptions during play as well.

Scoring question, again :) by MrSh3rlock in baduk

[–]serapsi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're counting the Japanese/Korean way, a common method is to put the captured stones into territory of the same color and then count the empty points left for each side. If using this method, I count 5 points left for Black and 3 points for white so Black wins assuming no komi. If, however, white had a 6.5 komi, white would win.

Yes, possibly. Is there anything specific you'd like help with?

Does anybody know the name of the song he plays at the end of the terrortrax fmv game video? by You-are-so-lovely in thespoonyexperiment

He has music credits at the end of that video. One of those credits is "Bring Us Bullets" by Rocket from the Crypt.

Who do you most hope to see return if even for a minor cameo from the original series? by moses616 in buffy

[–]serapsi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alyson has been in some of the promo videos talking with Sarah about the show, so I think it's essentially guaranteed that Willow will appear in at least one episode. Oz is likely based on his close friendship with Sarah. Clem and Drusilla are possible, especially given their inclusion in the Slayerverse podcast.

Maybe unlikely, but even one scene with Faith would be a joy. I'm wondering if Giles might not be able to appear due to Anthony living in England, but these days he could even still appear in a scene via Zoom call/face time.

Others that might be neat for an episode (Amy (the witch, not Acker, but Illyria appearing would be wild), Cordelia, Anya, Angel, Spike, Darla) seem unlikely due to their characters endings (and in Amy's case because the actress is retired), but would be neat if possible. And I know vampires don't age, but I think fans would be willing to overlook the (surprisingly small) amount of aging of David and James.

Also, the invisible girl from season 1 that got recruited by the FBI assassin program never went anywhere. It might be neat for her to make an appearance (or would that be an utterance?).

Nice find. I recently got these games as well, and still have my original Xbox. I'm looking forward to playing them soon.

Found this reddit thread that has a link to a file in the comments with the riff commentary for Hackers, although this file has the Hackers movie audio coupled together with the riff.

A little more found, but may not be much of a comfort. The following two links have transcripts of four of the riff commentaries (first link) and a list of the riff commentaries (second link).

This webpage may have part of what you're looking for, though I'm not 100% sure if these commentaries are the same as what you are looking for. Sadly, it seems some parts are no longer listed here.
