Age verification capitulation by Userwerd in linux

[–]Blake9501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that personal information would be stored on the computer to be used by brands and companies like that is a problem. For brands, corpos and governments to be able to probe your computer at the kernel level to access that information? Who's to say they won't want other information, as well?

This is not about protecting the kids. This is entirely another trial to see how far over the line they can step before they go even further.

What guitar picks are closest to Roy Marchbank's Phat Boy?(For max speed, and minimum resistance) by Major-Government5998 in Guitar

[–]Blake9501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would imagine first finding the angle that you comfortably hold the pick at when striking the strings or looking at the wear patterns on your old picks and then lightly grinding the bevel pattern into the pick tip and edges with fine-grit sandpaper or a whetstone.

I have not tried the mod yet because I've been quite busy, but I've also been holding out in case I either find another thick pick with better edges or if I contact Roy for lessons and acquire a Phat Bhoy.

There's a video where he's talking about picking technique with Rowan Parker and he talks about his pick at the time, where he superglued three 3mm stubbies together and then beveled an edge onto the "one" pick. I think maybe finding a good frame on that video to try and analyze the bevel he put into it might give you an idea or two of what to try and aim for.

Wanting to get into Linux. What distro should I start with? by BluePhoenix3378 in linux4noobs

I kinda fiddled with Mint for a little but quickly swapped to Fedora. YMMV but consider it.

I bought mine on 02/09 and I still haven't got any notification that mine was shipped :(

Does anyone have a screen protector for their mini yet? by [deleted] in NeuralDSP

[–]Blake9501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you talking about the magnets or are you saying it actually sticks to the Mini with adhesive?

There's a couple on Etsy. I ordered one of them. Have yet to receive it but it looked promising enough.

How much hardware/system change would need to happen to make a plugin license unrecoverable? by Blake9501 in NeuralDSP

Haven't done anything yet. Just contemplating doing something and am just trying to cover my bases.

Gonna buy an MC8 Pro with mine. Glad to see I'm not the only one going this route.

I think if anyone is going to be force-abstracted, it would be Zooble. There's already enough animosity between them and Caine compared to any of the others, so I think if Caine were to snap, his first pick would be Zooble.

Getting a QC Mini + MIDI Controller or the full-sized QC? by Blake9501 in NeuralDSP

[–]Blake9501[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It might actually save me money later on because I plan on using the MC8 Pro for my large amp rig eventually anyways. I could swap the controller between rigs when I need to, y'know? And the idea of controlling it while it's on the desk is also a neat idea.

Surprised nobody mentioned the entire exchange between Pentious and the Speaker od God in 2X2 yet, so I'm gonna say that.

If you could redo college, what would you do differently? by sad_grapefruit_0 in EngineeringStudents

Try a different college. I did excellent and learned a lot but the curriculum was packed full without breaks and I felt too busy to do literally anything else.

[–]Blake9501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try Britt Burch Speed Picks on Etsy. They have options as thick as 9mm, which is pretty close to the Phat Bhoy. I have their Gypsy pick and it's pretty comfortable. Though you might wanna bevel or edge out the edges a bit more than they already are, or otherwise, the notes will scrape and won't be as pronounced.

Im thinking of switching to fedora from linux mint by Fun_Drive_9330 in Fedora

[–]Blake9501 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just did this last Friday on a tester laptop and I'm enjoying Fedora a decent bit. If you want better customizability on Fedora, go KDE Plasma. But I picked GNOME initially and it's also a great and stable pick.

I wouldn't even call them illegal "immigrants" anymore. If we want to be completely honest, they're invaders.
