I am curious what other scenes around the US and around the world are doing in terms of re-opening and how that decision is being made.
Are there certain city/county/state criteria that scenes are looking for before they open up again?
Is your scene checking for proof of vaccination upon entry? Masks?
Perhaps waiting to see what happens with the delta variant and other variants? Or allowing small group lessons but not public dances yet?
Or is it all still just up in the air right now?
Hello r/OldEnglish! I'm very much a fan of learning languages using the Natural Method, much preferring books like Lingua Latina Per Se Illustrata (LLPSI) -- a Latin book written entirely in Latin for teaching people from scratch -- to traditional books that have you memorize declension tables and conjugations. I would like to internalize these things as I go.
To that end, does anyone know of a book like LLPSI for learning Old English? Something written entirely in Old English, that starts off with extremely simple sentences and builds on that foundation?
Background: Around two years ago I had an M-XT3URBK and used an M570 ball with it, as often suggested on this subreddit. It worked perfectly. Then a few months ago, I had a glass-of-water-mishap and it stopped working.
So I ordered a new one, popped the M570 ball in it, used it and waited a few weeks for it to break in, and it never did. So I sent it back for a replacement. I popped the M570 ball in the replacement, and the same thing happened, it never broke in. The ball physically skips around and I cannot precisely control where the cursor goes on the screen at all.
Things I have tried:
Hi r/bass, I'm making a move cross country soon. I'll need to load my bass into a U-Haul pod so they can take it and transport it to the new place. However, at my current place (NE Ohio, US), it's quite cold and the bass could be subjected to slightly-below-freezing temperatures (-3C lows or so, going by the forecast) for a few days while in the pod/in transit.
I'm terrified of the wood cracking or having other issues and was wondering what advice you had to help guarantee the bass makes the move without issue.
I've read that loosening the strings a bit is good (but risks the sound post slipping). I have moving blankets to wrap around the outer soft case, and a hook inside the moving pod

I'm moving and have a few old thinkpads to get rid of. Some work, some are just for parts, all need hard drives.
Free to anyone who wants them (unless you want to toss a few bucks into my moving fund :P). You pay shipping (from Ohio) and must take all because I need them gone. :)
The first person to PM me and work out shipping details with me gets them.
Again, please take all of them - I don't have boxes or time to ship a bunch of them individually, I just want them out of my house so I can move on :)
