Well, areas, society, culture, what "the done thing is" and so on changes over time, quite quickly in my opinion. Whether or not it's for the worse is never really a relevant question, or something that can be turned back, you just have to accept it or you kind of fall into oblivion and solitude. My problem is after years of over-thinking, I don't think I can go with the flow any more.

Oh god, as much as I agree, don't turn this into the TechNet forums.

Seriously, search for anything, and the "marked answer" is either "Youv'e posted in the wrong forum" or just a link to a blog post that's long been dead and returns a 404.

Does anyone else on here have tremors? I seem to have them pretty much all the time, especially when nervous or otherwise emotional but also when I'm doing every day things. Certain body positions seem to trigger them too.

They've gotten more noticeable lately, and people keep commenting on it which is making me a bit paranoid D: As I'm writing this my head keeps twitching. My older brother has them too, but his tends to be in his hands.

Guitar tuning question. Am I right in assuming that drop D tuning is tuning only the Low E down, whereas a full step down is tuning every string down?

Standard is EADGBE
Drop D is DADGBE
Downtuned a full step(D standard) is DGCFAD
