Minus what happens to an archer, would it theoretically do less damage?

Can a dry riser be installed in a stairwell, provided there are no clearance issues? I know there is a building code section that doesn't allow any systems in a stairwell that don't serve the stairwell, but I don't know the exact section to check the language. The way I'm looking at it, a dry riser is the same as a floor control assembly, as they are both system risers. Therefore it shouldn't be a problem. However it's being questioned by a building code official. Is this allowed?

1. Practice your songs to a click

Unless you are recording a LIVE album, practicing and your music to a metronome is essential for the studio environment. Drum takes that are “on-the-grid” makes overdubbing or any sort of correction in Post-Production incredibly easy. I know many engineers that will not record without a click simply to avoid the headache. If your musical group has music (or a drummer) that fluctuates between tempos, you need to rehearse the music to per-determined BPM before showing up to your session.

2. Show up Prepared

My opinion is: A great studio session is one that runs quickly and efficiently. If you and your band mates are pressured into last minute songwriting issues or troubleshooting (such as vocal delivery, guitar melody, or rhythm section misalignment), it can be a real strain on the recording process.

If you are looking to become a session musician, remember this saying: You might not be the best player in the room, but you can certainly be the most prepared.

3. Take Your Time

The Recording Process is broken down into 3 parts:

Pre-Production:

Before you even arrive at the studio, you are going to spend hours designing and planning your session. This is the Pre-Production Phase. This process includes finding and communicating with your engineer about the expectations of the record and your budget. Some studios will want to do a day of Pre-Production in the studio to make sure that when it’s time to record final takes, every detail is hashed out. During this time you can put down the foundations of the song and provide context for the greater plan of the song. Foundational elements include final BPM, rhythms, instrumentation, and structure, as well as lyrics, chorus melody, lead lines, etc

Recording

• Scratch Tracks (guitar, vocals, melody, piano, etc)
• Drums + Final
• Lead Instruments (Vocals, guitar, keys, whichever instrument is playing the melody)
• Pads (Rhythm Guitar + Keys)
• Harmony (Horn section, backing vocals, etc)
• Texture (ambiance, percussion, overdubs, Solos)

Now that the foundation is established, it is time to start building some walls! Drums and Bass will be the first 2 instruments to record final takes. The reason for this is that every other instrument

Go post NSFW jokes somewhere else. If I can't tell my kids this joke, then it is not a DAD JOKE.

If you feel it's appropriate to share NSFW jokes with your kids, that's on you. But a real, true dad joke should work for anyone's kid.

Mods... If you exist... Please, stop this madness. Rule #6 should simply not allow NSFW or (wtf) NSFL tags. Also, remember that MINORS browse this subreddit too? Why put that in rule #6, then allow NSFW???

Please consider changing rule #6. I love this sub, but the recent influx of NSFW tagged posts that get all the upvotes, just seem wrong when there are good solid DAD jokes being overlooked because of them.

Thank you,

A Dad.

My tips or tricks in all of ableton (some of these are well known but I think there is something for everyone here):

1. (most common one but good to know) Make a dry wet knob for any plugin with two chains in an audio effect rack. (Google for more info) you can also use this same rack without the dry/wet trick thing to make a return track within one track, great for Reverbs or effects you don't want to make a whole new return for but still want to do parallel effects on.

2. You can't hear your sine wave bass on a phone but still want the soft nature of a clean sine wave sub? Put on an overdrive, set the band all the way to the left and adjust it til you have one or two harmonics. you can now hear it on a phone with no audable distortion (it will boost the bass a bit so turn it down after)

3. The haas* effect. Put a delay on a mono track, set the feedback to zero, the dry/wet to 100% and the delays to 0ms and 15-30 Ms. You now have the industry standard for stereo widening for free.

4. Need a bass guitar? Just play your guitar and pitch it down one octave with complex. Sounds just like the real thing.

5. You want a riser before every snare or just have a snare or any sound that starts before the hit? Use the latency compansation to make it fit right in without cutting to the attack or moving every single midi note.

6. The auto filter can be sidechained like many other stock plugins. Aka use this to only low cut your bass, perc etc. when the kick hits. Keeps the energy but removes weird phace issues.

7. The gate can also be sidechained, so you can make a sound only play when another sound is playing. Great for layering or rythmic breaks. (I usually use this with a noise generator to make a rythmic noise that gives intensity to the chorus.

8. Micro sampling. Move any sample into a simpler or sampler, set the start/end point within one sample and listen to your new synth. tune it to get a playable waveform that sounds sick.

9. Racks are amazing. You can make a whole vocal chain with a one knob controller (you can map almost all vst parameters to a rack in ableton, not just stock plugins).

10.probably obvious but I didn't know what it was: consolidate. Consolidate takes the selected area and makes it one audio/midi clip, my god this has saved me so much time when editing and doing weird stuff with clips.

11. Can't find the key or chords for a song? Need to get a cool chord progression or you playd something on guitar but want to layer it with

I got the Bykski Strix 3090 Waterblock + Active Backplate combo (N-AS3090STRIX-TC-V2) and wanted to give some instructions for those who want to use this particular combo. I used Gelid Extreme thermal pads (1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 mm) all around and have had extremely good results with it. Bykski does not include instructions with the combo, as they have placed CPU waterblock installation instructions in the box and their online instructions on FormulaMod do not include thermal pads on the components that were originally cooled by the stock heatsink. They have strangely-sized 1.8 mm thermal pads included which are not the greatest but will do if you don't want to buy additional thermal pads.

The finish on the blocks aren't perfect as you can see the machining lines underneath the nickel plating and in the sections of the acrylic that were milled out, but it's all cosmetic except for the portion of the front block that sticks out to meet the GPU die. I forgot to take a before and after picture of me lapping that particular section, but the factory finish was rough and had two lines that stuck out from the block. I could easily catch them with my nail, and if I pressed hard enough I could probably have scraped some skin off. These lines were only apparent after I had installed and disassembled the blocks a couple times to get the sizing down pat for the thermal pads and to check placement and PCB flex on the other parts that I wanted to add thermal pads to.

So, to prevent accidentally cracking my GPU die, I decided to lap that portion of the waterblock. It took the better part of two days using only 800 and 3000 grit wet/dry sandpaper from Home Depot (I didn't want to spend all that money getting the intermediate grits), a 40x40 mm aluminum heatsink from Amazon, and the tempered glass panel of my Fractal Design Meshify 2 Compact to fully get rid of any machining marks and make the surface flat. I first had to lap the heatsink to make sure it was flat before using it on the waterblock, and I made sure to change the sandpaper frequently. And, since I was lapping the waterblock and heatsink, I lapped my CPU IHS as well (Ryzen 5800X) since it's concave and had made indentations in my H100i Capellix that I used before doing this watercooling build.

After lapping was completed, I used Noctua NT-H2 on the GPU die and Arctic MX-4 (I only had a tiny bit left, didn't want it to go to waste) on the CPU IHS. There was no PCB flex so all thermal pads were of the proper size

Well, toucan play at that game.

I want to know if I can remove this and if so, should I do anything to prevent issues?

I am installing LVP on the stairs. I found this after demoing. I am under the assumption it's a support brace of some kind. I don't want to remove it without doing proper research. Should I open the wall up around it and see what it's attached to?

Ok, I opened up the drywall a bit and you can see it's clearly nailed to a 2x4. The outlet is like 12" further down from this. https://imgur.com/a/1oj2Ojy

It's a hanger on the 2x4 and the stair riser. I thought there might be an outlet nearby but it's about 12" down from this.

E: Ok, I removed it from the riser. I opened up the hole more and it was clear as day. Some kind of brace or hanger that was nailed to a stud, and then nailed to the riser. No idea why. No electrical or piping of any kind. I decided to pry the section nailed to the riser off. It came off very easy, and there a bit of slack on the hanger, indicating it was under tension. Lazily I used a dremel with a cut off wheel and cut the hanger in the dry wall. I'm going to patch the hole and just leave it.

I run a private campground. It’s been in the family for generations. We pass the management of it from descendent to descendent, along with all the customs and stories that come with it. We also pass along a curse - everyone that has ever managed this land has died to one of the inhuman things that inhabit it alongside us.

For this is old land and that has a weight and a significance to it. It has rules of its own, separate from the world we understand. And those rules shape how we live and how we die.

This land is changing. It is turning ancient. And someday, one of these inhuman things will claim it and then they will write the rules.

If you’re new here, you should really start at the beginning and if you’re totally lost, this might help.

The campground has actually been peaceful for a little bit since we killed the fomorian. I wonder if the inhuman things that are trapped here, unable to leave, are relieved. The fomorians were tyrants that demanded tribute from the creatures they ruled over. The fomorian would have done the same, had it triumphed and taken the lives of the few that dared stand against it. The forest certainly seems lighter now that it's gone. It was like a fog hung over it, heavy in my lungs, and now that has lifted. I hadn’t even realized its weight until I went walking through the forest and realized that something had changed.

Likely the other creatures that live here feel it as well.

The battle against the fomorian took a heavy toll. I’ve grieved the loss of the dogs harder than I thought I would. I find myself crying unexpectedly. Crying is too light of a word. It’s like the grief will rip me apart. I bury my face in a towel and scream. For the dogs, for my aunt and uncle, for my parents, and for everyone else I’ve ever loved that this land has taken.

The cost is starting to feel too high. But if I abandon the land now, that will not stop it from turning ancient. It will merely throw someone else into the sacrificial fire - likely my brother. And if I’d abandoned it before it turned… that, too, would have been a high cost. The toll would be taken on countless strangers out in the world, naïve and vulnerable to the creatures that would be un

Hey guys. My son moved on from Valheim, so it is just me left in this game, and I thought I would post a journal so I could share some of the fun stuff I am doing in this game with someone else.

I have like 600hrs into the game now, and there seem to be two modes of play that interest me- (1) modded play, and (2) hard core fresh start unknown seed play. I have been playing with mods now for a bit, and in particular the epic loot mod + the higher level enemies (I play up to 5 stars) raises the challenge level to a point where it is interesting. The base game itself is not as challenging, so hardcore sounds like the way to go to make that more fun.

Currently I am doing a playthrough on my own with the mods and increased difficulty. There are some enemies that are simply way too difficult to deal with, and I to park them to come back to them. For example, I am in the iron age now with about 12 crypts cleared. I ran into a 3-star draugr bow using regenerating and poison elite that killed me 5x in a crypt. I set up a partial muck wall that it could not path beyond, but the hit damage was so high that 2 shots would kill me. I upgraded all of my armor to iron quality 3, and still it was hard. It would wander off and heal up.

But on the balance this is a great way to play. The enemies are much harder, but the rewards with magic items are very satisfying. Any encounter can have a fantastic drop, so rather than having things add feel like irritations, they now feel like opportunities. In general one is pushed to maximize armor rating even with not the best enchants on the gear just to take a few hits from a high star enemy.

The swamp I am in is thick, with likely near 20 crypts all told, and Bonemass. I have been conquering it, one crypt at a time. I discovered that if I use a hoe, I can elevate ground from below the water line to above the water line and create leech free paths. Each crypt I fortify in a minimal fashion- 4 stakewalls on the stone with a door around the front gate of the crypt. 3 boxes for loot. A simple wood floor on the steps to hold the portal. A bench on one side opposite the door. And a ladder from that enclosure to the roof. I make a campfire inside the crypt, and can dump iron scrap safely to a box up top, and port back with excess materials to repair. This lets me work through the nights without much fear of night spawn, although splitter type enemies in the crypt can spawn more of the same up top.

I have used the planting plus mod to

I need help. I’ve got a 3090 hydro copper and I just updated my loop yesterday. I leak tested the entire thing for 12+ hours and everything seemed fine. Booted it up (ram benchmarks to heat the system up) and about an hour later the entire machine shut down. Now I’ve got a trickle of water running down the back of my gpu. I immediately unplugged everything and broke out the paper towels and compressed air to blow things off. This is brand new distilled water, so my hopes are that nothing shorted out and my mobo is giving me safe boot post codes. Just how screwed am I?
