I am unable to comment in some .ml instances. I can comment and post no problem in my home instance and beehaw (I'm not sure if I can now due to them defederating) but not in two instances on .ml.

I can comment here interestingly enough. Otherwise the app is pretty dang responsive and runs better than my previous 3rd party reddit app. I have noticed some crashing rarely, but I think that may be due to my broken android install rather than the app itself.

Kudos to the developer(s) of Jerboa though, for an alpha this runs pretty well

I prefer keeping things relatively simple until moments of tension in the song. Counter Melody and leading the vocals go very far when used sparingly.

My old group had a song where the bass part was actually pretty boring but everytime I would repeat a phrase I would change my selection of notes to bring the feeling of motion.

So initially the bass line like sat around an open A and the 2-4 fret area, then I would move 5th on E, 7th D etc. Basically moving the phrase higher and higher without changing the function of the baseline.

So to the listener, our bass line remains familiar but still feels fresh. Eventually when we hit the high point of the song my last note ended beyond the 12 fret and became the first note of the rhythm guitarists line and the launching point for the lead guitarists' solo.

This creates a huge feeling of motion from the entire band using what was originally a simple, unassuming baseline.

I would focus on lower weight and cardio. Get the blood pumping, maybe hit an exercise bike for a bit and see how you feel. If you still have gas in the tank and your soreness alleviates then hit some light weights.

In the US and my city unfortunately public transit takes some time. My local transit system has had a hard time keeping up with maintenance of their E-hybrid busses and has busses out of service more often than not. This causes many trips to be overwhelmed with double the amount of people they would usually take.

In addition to lack luster infrastructure, you can experience safety concerns with some members of the public. I was personally followed all the way to my old job once and had to tell my manager "A crazy man followed me here, if he comes in the store call the police because I will remove him"

Despite these downfalls public transit becomes much more useful when combined with a bicycle. I can take the bus to the shops and ride back because most of the return trip is downhill.

When I owned a car I would often choose the bus with bike over my own car because then I wouldn't have to worry about parking.

In my city, it's not out of the ordinary to look upwards of 40 minutes for a spot. I used to have to park 20 minutes away in the hills then skate back. Otherwise I'd be doing laps around my neighborhood trying to find ANY legal parking.

I can definitely understand why some members of the public prefer cars over public transit just for safety.

I'm not a little guy by any means, I'm 190 pounds of muscle and have some facial scarring. I've been described as "scary" and "You look like the devil" but I have had a number of run ins that made me fear for my safety.

If I was a 4"5 mom I would almost exclusively drive.

My chain has always had Boost Comp and dirt. Youre probably fine without the boost pedal with an active bass. I originally added it when I turned my active into a passive

I'm on version 0.0.33, and I'm trying to comment on collapse and preppers

 

Ive been trying to post comments to a few communities under the .ml suffix but I keep getting a language not allowed message? I have no problems on my home instance or beehaw?

Nah not really, I was given a pair of hunting pants and those things breathed so well. They were baggy, had loads of pockets and quickly became my "handyman yard work" pants.

I've heard something similar. What I heard specifically was that the front page algorithm had to keep digging deeper and deeper to populate desired content; that this somehow tanked the site.

(I'm not a dev or programmer, apologies if my Info isn't exact)

My area seems so be solid with LGBT acceptance. It's not perfect by any means but you don't see any radical far right elements that have been popping up.

Easily the most goofy subreddit I had the pleasure of being in.
