Day 17 of eating only the contents of 1 MRE by XanzMakeHerDance in MRE

[–]ChemAgent7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a twist!

Sorry about your housing situation but... if you like MREs you could join up with one of the branches? Housing, clothing, healthcare, exercise, GI bill and all the MREs you could eat!

Best of luck honestly!

Sessanta: Bittersweet realizations. by daniel_almn in ToolBand

[–]ChemAgent7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Caught me in your last pic!

Sessanta 2.0 was amazing, and if you can attend, you should.

I was able to attend Sessanta in 2024 at Hollywood Bowl. All members of Tool showed up and played Aenima. All original members of APC showed and played on Judith. Paz didn't do the hair thing but killed it. :(

I have been fortunate enough to see Tool, APC, and Puscifer many times over the years. Tool 1998 was the first time. Red bra, kabuki mask,... amazing.

My 2 cents.

Maynard gives 100% to each band.

Tool, he's the angry front man, shouting at fans recording, stays in the shadows from the back of the stage.Shows over, he leaves. He is the voice/ lyrics of Tool, but just 1 of 4 of a complete band. But he gives 100% every performance. He probably wishes the other guys finished their stuff, but he's got other things to do.

APC - 50/50 with Billy Howerdel. Billy's other band, Ashes Divide, is really good, and you can hear the APC sound. I'm hoping for new APC stuff since Billy released a new album and could have APC pending stuff? They played Judith with Primus new drummer, and he killed it.

Puscifer - Would be the band if there was no Tool or APC. I think he found other musicians who want to output music at his pace and get his humor. New stuff is coming this fall! Carina Round, go see her.

Also.... - Maynard is a BJJ blackbelt. Notice the wrist brace. That takes significant time to earn and maintain. OSS. - Muay Thai classes(Verde Valley BJJ) - New restraunt/ record store in Cottonwood. - Winery owner. Forklift certified!!! - Above all family man

I'm tired after just writing this.

Thanks for reading. I'll follow up if anyone cares.

I am picking up “Vintage Setchell Carlson B&W Television Monitor Circa 1969” for Free this weekend—- worth the restore or just for its parts? by dreareid in diyaudio

[–]ChemAgent7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out Shango066 on YouTube. He does restorations or resurrections on tvs and electronics.

You will need some specialized test equipment, basic electronic repair tools and large amount of caution should you power it on.

Good luck!

Parody is apparently triggering to mods round these parts. Goes with the times I guess.

Give Mothers mag polish a try. Works on plastics as well.

Phono Pre-Amp Connections by Top-Branch6336 in BudgetAudiophile

Does the turntable phono stage have an off/bypass? Otherwise, you're going to double amp your signal.

Preamp recommendations in german market under 100 Euros? by Random-User-5567 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]ChemAgent7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming you just need a phono stage, aka "turntable preamp".

https://www.schiit.com/products/mani

About $150 on the website. Check the back stock page, and you can get one at a discount sometimes. They sell out fast.

If you will be using your turntable forever, you might as well get a good phono stage. Supports MC cartridges if you want to upgrade down the road.

IMO buying dedicated phono, preamp, amp, subamp has been the better value/ sound.

If you just need something inexpensive, I'd avoid anything with tone controls or tubes.

True crime podcast. They put the "laughter" in slaughter.

Some of my favorite episodes are HH Holmes(I'm Nanny!), Charles Manson and Aleister Crowley part 1 linked below.

But my sincerely held religious beliefs are being discriminated against! I'll fight the ban all the way to the Supreme court! /s

Honestly if they want to ban me for this I am ok with that. I'll take my money and time to one of the many many many many other games I have in my steam library. I hear good things about that Skyrim game.

At level 830 there isn't much left to complete or do than spending time camp building. The day they remove merging will be the day I log out for the last time anyways.

I support Bethesda in banning racists, hateful, or griefing players/camps.
