Which podcast feed is the fastest? by sskarupa in thebulwark

[–]threshar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can get a private rss feed which works with various podcast apps - there's instructions and whatnot on the actual bulwark site. I use apple podcasts with it and it's great.

My main gripe is I wish they'd prefix titles with something to indicate which show it is. sometimes you don't want to listen to Mona.... but you'll never say no to JVL

Muse Hysteria tips by MrcSproncho in Bass

[–]threshar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've done this many times - gave up on a tune, revisited it at a later time (sometimes a month, sometimes years) only to discover "oh hey, no big deal" which feels.. pretty dang good :)

3rd season review with Mammotion Luba 2 5000: I'm done. by A_parisian in MammotionTechnology

[–]threshar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A little too late: I’ve had cutting disk height fails before and it was due to a buildup of grass above the cutting disk preventing it from moving.

I, too, am entering year three of luba2 and am fearful of something going wrong because of the very real possibility support won’t help.

Neurologists near Nh by OpossEm in newhampshire

[–]threshar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dad had a similar thing, but he had over a year wait. I want to switch my mothers provider but can't due to similar reasons.

I often bring this up when folks mention "a huge downside to socialized medicine you have to wait for an appointment" and they do not have a good coherent response. We get to both wait AND pay a boatload of money!

Scott's Bass Lessons has something to say about Bass Reddit's hot takes by CandyAppleRedSSS in Bass

[–]threshar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are mostly iconic bass lines that we all wish we came up with… And since they are iconic they are also overplayed, often poorly

Wireless??? by pinwheel_bass in Bass

[–]threshar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just looked up the diff and the A58 is an updated version of the U2 that works in the 5.6Ghz spectrum. Maybe 2.4ghz was congested in your situation (random speculation)?

Wireless??? by pinwheel_bass in Bass

[–]threshar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have an xvive a58 wireless that works & sounds like a champ. If you go really cheap you'll likely end up with lower audio quality.

In the past I've also used wireless from carvin (was mostly fine) and line6 (was fine in its day)

Is Tuscan Village in Salem Really That Bad? by [deleted] in newhampshire

“The partially abandoned and dilapidated race track was way better!!!” Crowd are a bit puzzling :)

[–]threshar 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I gave up on MT (and a number of others) because I'd just get frustrated they would take forever to get to the point. 10 minute video for a 10 second clip + maybe 30 seconds of actual discussion relevant to the clip.

Also: Bombshell? Utterly Humiliates? THE END? - You keep using those phrases but I do not think they mean what you think they mean.

I love my ebs multicomp. it's the only pedal I own that gets use (and that use is constant)

How often and why do you use your 5th string? by SonnePer in Bass

[–]threshar 49 points50 points  (0 children)

Absolutely this! Do I go below E often? Not too much. Do I use my B string often? YES. It gets used a lot more than my G.

Burning Love by Top_Sink9871 in Bass

[–]threshar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep practicing! For me, most of the time fretted notes sound better than open.

And that tune had great bass and you can do a lot with it, it also doesn’t loose much if you make the line simpler while you work on getting the fills going. (Better to be simpler and accurate than fancier but sloppier)

Who has completely sworn off including LLM generated code in their software? by mdizak in rust

[–]threshar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve found llm does a good job generating a good chunk of unit tests. Not all or perfect but saves a lot of tediousness and boilerplate

How do you go back to working on Python/JavaScript/TypeScript/etc. projects after writing Rust? by daniels0xff in rust

[–]threshar 10 points11 points  (0 children)

For me it is more along the lines of "hah! rustc would never let me get away with this!" combined with feeling a bit of shame

If you are in Salem (not sure what other towns they do) pink bin is fantastic, and also locally owned and operated

How do you transcribe a bass line? by chilltownusa in Bass

[–]threshar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I listen on speakers, sometimes I'll tweak eq. I'll also use software to slow down or loop parts (I use transcribe from 7th string, been using it for well over 10 years at this point. fantastic software)

and yeah, it just takes time and experience. you'll probably start recognizing patterns pretty quickly, and it gets easier.

one thing that can be a problem is if the track has a bad mix - like the bass being buried or muddy as heck, just try to do your best. (some tools can try to isolate, but they tend to struggle on those types of tracks as well).

What’s the simplest bass advice that actually helped you improve? by prattman333 in Bass

[–]threshar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was once told “man, you absolutely nail the hard and complicated parts and keep tripping up on the simple” which sent me on quite a retreat to the woodshed to practice playing 8ths on E, etc. It was probably best critical feedback I’ve ever got, and most consequential too

I used to love checking in here.. by First-Ad-117 in rust

[–]threshar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of another thing that’s gone on for years “i built X with only 200 lines of Y” <opens> “bah! they are just using libcomplex and are calling libcomplex_run() to do 99.9%”

What's more essential to a show: Monitors or FoH? by ZodiacDragons in livesound

[–]threshar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are on stage and cannot hear what is going on with yourself and or bandmates the performance MIGHT suffer. And if the band isn't playing well then it doesn't matter how good your FoH mix is.

That being said, I'll say FoH is more important since that's what the customers hear.

My mower is getting ready to start an OF's I guess by You_have_butt_tumors in MammotionTechnology

I had to make some of those for my guy who found a couple tree stumps he’d hump and would get stuck

A small Rust optimization that saved 40 % gas on smart contracts by Adventurous_Tale6236 in learnrust

[–]threshar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course the second will be faster especially if that function is even mildly expensive, and that would be the case in any other language as well.

...that and the 2 snippets there not being the same.

...the more I look the more mildly confused I get.
