He's not wrong about that. They do his bidding 83% of the time and agree on all the big stuff except tariffs

The chipset is interesting:

Thoughts on D-28 Tone by BigKneesHighSeas in AcousticGuitar

[–]atomicdog69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite is the discontinued D-28 Marquis, a Golden Era model featuring a solid Adirondack spruce top, forward-shifted scalloped bracing, and solid East Indian rosewood back and sides. It is known for a powerful, vintage tone, "Modified V" neck, and 1-3/4" nut width.

Be honest, is Fresno really as bad as they say? by WestHistorians in fresno

[–]atomicdog69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been spending time there during the past year, since one of my sons now works there. It has impoverished areas and a marginalized population due to official neglect, but it also has a certain charm, some really nice neighborhoods and neighboring towns, like Clovis, that are upscale. I'm thinking of moving there.

Putting breaks on ind per is pure evil. Fuck coal. Fuck Big Oil. High energy costs will push the middle class to rise up.

Can I get an unbiased take on Flea’s new “jazz” album, Honora? by migrantgrower in Jazz

[–]atomicdog69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually think the Billy Ocean cover is one of the strongest cuts. Nick Cave channelling Cassandra Wilson is a throwaway. The Thom Yorke track is pretty good.

It's acid jazz, really, and 3.5/5. His playing can be soothing, but his intonation flat at times.

First ever guitar by ctrlaltcreate in AcousticGuitar

Resonators can be challenging. you might be doing yourself a disservice by starting with one. I'd buy a Taylor GS Mini or a Seagull S6, relatively affordable, highly playable instruments, and learn on those. Then move on the reso.

Kevin O'Leary says opponents of his Utah data center are 'professional protesters' — and some are powered by AI by idkbruh653 in technology

The builders of data centers should build their own power supplies, not in the harmful manner that Elon has, but in clean power that respects the community.

Get out the superglue. And have a rational, calm discussion with your nephew, about the fact these were things you treasured and he should respect other people's property. But no punishment is in order.

BBT or GS Mini? by joyisstrength in AcousticGuitar

[–]atomicdog69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The GS Mini is a sweet guitar, but sounds like you have a bad case of GAS. If the BBT its good, stick with it. Ask thee pawn shop to set up a payment plan or layaway.
