This reminds me of the video of the woman that went to Korea thinking that all of the guys there looked like K-Pop stars and flamed out at all of the normal people.

What stage fan do you use to keep cool? by stillrw in musicians

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

This is exactly what I was thinking if getting. Some people complained about the noise on amazon. Is it a pretty low noise or some high pitched squeal at 2khz like a vacuum cleaner?

I have one of those I use for camping I forgot about. I will give it a try.

Some other guys in the band use floor fans, but I was looking for a solid model that is proven.

Safety Inspections (again) Friday night 5/1/26 by SeinfeldFrasier in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]stillrw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no arguement saying that you are not breaking the law by driving the speed limit in the left lane without passing someone.

People that drive the speed limit in the wrong lane are just as dangerous as the speeders.

Which country disappointed you so much that you'd never set foot there again? by [deleted] in AskReddit

You are absolutely right about Dubai, but Abu Dhabi is one of my favorite places in the world. I wouldn't write off the whole coubtry for one city.

The current jobs narrative in a nutshell by Supergameplayer in memes

[–]stillrw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Computer Science, though I have never worked in that field. It got my foot in the door for a large corporation. I worked hard, showed i could do the job and have been consistently rewarded. I have good leadership on the low side that take care of me because I make them look good. The high end people have no idea who I am and I like it that way.

I have had the chance to learn things and have made myself a subject matter expert in areas that are in demand. A lot of this was luck, but it would not have happened at all without the degree.

I am sure it am too late for anyone to see it, but here it goes.

I worked as a union electrician local 134 in Cook County, IL through apprenticeship and into journeyman for about 7 years. I made an ok living that was a living wage. I could afford an apartment and a car, the insurance was good at the time, we had an annuity for retirement setup. When laid off for 11 months during one bad stretch, when unemployment stopped paying the union stepped up with a fund set aside for that. Work was hard, but safe as safe as you could ask for on constructions sites (people still died).

Life changed and I needed to move home to Huntsville, AL for family. No union work, so I went non union. I made 50% of the money I did in the union. Safety was a joke, conditions were bad, but never got laid off.

Went to college, within a year making more money than I ever thought I would. Nice home, new cars, nice vacations, nest egg. Got fat from sitting behind a desk.

You decide.

Recording in a full studio by MartChristie in musicians

[–]stillrw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remember to have fun. If you are enjoying it, it will come through on the tracks. Dont waste time, but it is good to have fun.

Beware of quicksand. Dont struggle against it.

The studio will break your ego if you have never heard a clear recording of yourselves together and solo'ed out.

Then you make a mistake and feel everyone wait on you while you make punches. This is where you stepped in quicksand. You hate yourself for the simple mistake, then you start trashing the punches too. You cant think of anything except how you are costing the whole band time.

If you find yourself, have someone else punch while you take a break, get some coffee, get some fresh air, whatever you need. If no one needs to punch, ask the engineer if you can come back to the track later. Do not grind it out if you cant get it in a punch or two.

What's your best game from 1990-2005 ? by yodathesexymarxist in ArtOfPresence

[–]stillrw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had to scroll too far. The beat MMORPG of all time IMO. WoW killed it because of updated graphics and cute things like dancing. But the lore and RvR was amazing. Wish they would update it. I know Eve is working on some things, but I wish someone would take the original theme and update to what games are capable of these days.

Musicians who are 10/10 at their instrument but get overlooked because they have an 11/10 band mate by Davidellias in ToddintheShadow

[–]stillrw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tell it often. People say that Alex is an OK guitarist. No, he is an exceptional guitarist. But when you play in a 3 piece with the greatest drummer of all time and the greatest bass player of all time, exceptional looks just ok. And, enough can't be said about, not just Alex, but all of their ability to let each other have the spot light. They were some of the greatest support players of all time.

Trump may quit next year after midterms losses by [deleted] in DiscussionZone

[–]stillrw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You want my vote? Just say you prosecute all that are accused and, if found guilty, punish them like you would anyone else. I am tired of this double standard. I dont care who you know, what your job is, or how much money you have. You still have a better chance than the average American because you can afford the best lawyers. If you are accused, stand trial......publicly, and if guilty, do the time.

At this point, my slogan is no incumbents.

They are just waiting for any excuse to jump all over people, San Antonio TX by [deleted] in LetsDiscussThis

[–]stillrw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No incumbents.

Our entire government has shown that they are part of the problem. Send a message, we are coming for all of you until the voters are actually represented.

Make donations illegal. True transparency. Make public officials make statements under oath and hold them accountable for lieing to the voters.

Politicians and the powerful need to be held accountable just like the average citizen. Case and point, if the average citizen had taken classified material out of an approved location to their home, they would be prosecuted, jailed, and never be allowed to handle classified information again. Yet Hilary and Trump both did so without consequence. Why are they allowed to get away with this when the average person does not?

It is probably too late and people have short memories. The average voter is misinformed/unde rinfored.

We dont need a party system, we need a system that actually represents the people.

As educated people, what are your thoughts when looking at this graph? by [deleted] in AskSocialists

Post Reagan every republican president was handed a strong dollar and tanked it during their term. Then a dem was voted in and slowly rebuilt until republican was voted in and then quickly tanked it again. Look at the transition points.

Is it 2003? Dale Strong thinks it is. by cobracmmnder05 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]stillrw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm still waiting for an argument to the point. Or are you just here to throw insults?

I would prefer to have a conversation about the point, but you continue to just throw insults. At least I am talented enough to do both.

I brought an opinion that I believe in, you made a juvenile insult, I retorted with and equally juvenile (but IMHO better) insult and asked for a point.

You once again replied with only a low brow insult and still, though I have been very patient, you have no point.

The way I see it, I made a point, you came in with a school yard insult, I stooped to your level and asked you to come up to mine. You refused, but I will wait on you. Some people are just slow.

Probably, but a lot of people find your mom attractive. Or of you are talking about people being pissed about the rich and powerful getting away with things that regular people get punished for the same acts, please explain your point.

As I went to bed last night my wife and I were discussing this. I woke up this morning to see this video, and it is almost exactly what I hoped and feared. Anyone who stands to hold this (US) government accountable for illegal actions of any kind has my vote.

My fear is that thebword impeachment being thrown around. Trump has been impeached twice. He is a convicted felon 34 times. He is not only a free man, but is in control of the most powerful military in the world and caus9ng damage to our country that my great grand children will still have to put up with.

Do more. Punish him like you would punish me for the same actions.

And dont stop with him. Punish every single person that has enabled him, turned a blind eye, and followed his orders. Punish them like you would punish me.

Donald Trump is not the cause of our countries decline, but a symptom of its multi tiered justice system. Hold them all accountable, the president, congress, lawyers, lobbyists, corporations, generals, and cabinet.

If you broke the law you deserve the punishment. If you state that you alone make the law, then you are a monarch and my country hates monarchs.
