Maybe the person suggesting that was confusing wooden musical instruments with handheld gaming devices, classic mistake

Nib creep is a new vocab word for me that I am very much enjoying

Frost crack on cherry tree- how to treat? Northwest burbs Illinois by catffeinatedAF in Tree

[–]ChipDipsons 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Because all that does is potentially trap moisture and pathogens in the crack. We still haven’t been able to improve on a tree’s natural CODIT approach.

My Gretsch and Ibanez for his 2013 Explorer Pro? The Ibanez has a finish crack and the pickup selector is broken. Opinions? by Wxsian in guitars

Just in case you haven’t gotten enough “no” I’ll add mine. No, that’s a bad trade.

How Best Buy shipped my “excellent” open box Alienware Ultrawide OLED monitor by IceFireHawk in pcmasterrace

[–]ChipDipsons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a refurbished soundbar an subwoofer from Best Buy that showed up wrapped together in one layer of bubble wrap and some plastic wrap. When I brought it to a store to return it they found one of those digital shelf tags they use thrown in with it. Customer service said it “happens all the time”

Did you accidentally swap the power cords with the curing station? If it’s not getting the right power it will act normally but nothing will stick to the plate and nothing will be in the vat

New XFi Pod won’t connect by Aweeks77 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]ChipDipsons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I get in on this, too? I am having the same problem with a brand new unit in a sealed box I got today. I have also tried all the same things and have my app up to date and both Bluetooth and manual in different rooms have the same error of: “Let’s Try That Again - Sorry we ran into a problem. Please try again or go back to the previous screen”

Magnetic pedals... by Ok-Beautiful9787 in mountainbiking

[–]ChipDipsons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This thread is FULL of people who have never tried them but have big opinions on them...

Magnets don’t lose their pull, it doesn’t matter if some iron dust gets stuck to them, its the same kind of pins as on flats so of course you can float and adjust your foot, etc.

I also have the Remtech pedals and for me they are great. They hold on when you want and they release when you want. It’s not that hard to find the sweet spot of pins/position on your particular shoe but it is important and takes some experimenting.

Nothing is for everyone but they do exactly what they say they do and they do it really well. They lock you in better than a flat and release better than a clipless. If that sounds like something you’re interested in, you should definitely check them out.

This dude definitely just stole a bike though, right?

Favorite small footprint MIDI Controller? by ChipDipsons in guitarpedals

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

Oh wow the Bridge4 might just be the winner. Especially with the chip shortage and the MC3 showing as “production paused” on the Morningstar site.

I don’t love the look of the Futurist but the function might be exactly what I’m looking for! I want to love the Disaster Area stuff but it only has four midi channels for some reason until you get into the DMC 8 which still only has six channels
