- Comment on Is there some special process by which musicians/producers arrive at an agreed-upon tempo for a song recording? 3 weeks ago:
A band is 3-5 ish people just vibing and making it up together. When you get into a studio, now you have at least one engineer in the group. If a record label is involved, you have their representative as well as all their money. So it’s a lot of chefs in the kitchen when it comes to making an actual recording.
The biggest influence outside of the band though is usually the engineer. As an outsider with a vested interest in making the song as good as it can be, they often have really great insight into changes that can make the song even better.
Finally, when you’re playing live even with a click track in your ear, you’re going to want to rush. And that’s ok, it’s fun to play fast. You may not even notice it. And then you go into the booth to record and you end up laying out what you had in your head from the start.

That’s incorrect.

You’re getting raked over the coals for this but you’re not alone. ME2 is so linear and simplified it may as well be a different game series. Incredibly disappointing playing it right after ME1. ME3 does turn it all around and it’s my favorite of the three, which is also a controversial take so.

Give it time, too. I didn’t discover I’m an absolute fishing fiend until I was 28, and now I’m out with my dad as often as we can. Same with woodworking and building stuff, I picked that all up when I bought a house.
Do I wish I had known this about myself when we lived together? Of course, but I’d be a very different person I suspect and I like who I am.

Big same. “Yeah I’m colorblind so you don’t really want my opinion on this” when they’re debating shades of purple, and they never have to know I just can’t see green on top of red.
- Comment on New oven and they lock the air fryer functionality behind wifi. 3 months ago:
Our GE Profile did the same. Of course the software is so shit, it tripped up connecting to the VLAN I set up and now it has air fry mode and no wifi.
Maybe try switching to airplane mode on your phone while trying to onboard the oven? I’m sure it’s too late for that.
- Comment on Fields of Mistria review: A boring, soulless Stardew reskin 4 months ago:
Not to belittle Stardew, a game I adore, but Stardew is itself very much cribbed, as a desperately needed spiritual successor to the Harvest Moon/Rune Factory games. I don’t intend on checking out fields of mistria so I’ll just take your word on the rest.

On god. I bought four god damn copies of it and it still wasn’t enough.

Are they back in stock? I’ve looked off and on for months and every time they’re back ordered, and I refuse to pay scalper prices.

I had to rewind three times cause I swore I kept missing something important that made that significant or something. Needless to say I was glued to the screen until the credits rolled.
