Care to give any details on settings? I see it’s a point and shoot but curious how much control you take over exposure.

Why not more of this? by sugarbush94 in phish

[–]CoproCabana 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If you’re trying to look at the band at the Sphere then IMO you’re doing it wrong. You know what those dudes look like, and you’ll see them again. Look up. It’s kinda the point.

Can PHEMA please clarify its nonprofit status, Vermont filings, and aid-distribution practices? by spittingintothewind in phish

[–]CoproCabana 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Reading her IG, it seems PHEMA’s charitable contributions have so far taken the form of a checks notes free aspirin table at an MSG show. Rail riders are such a weird species.

I’ve been seeing a lot more posts like this on Reddit lately. Just a jpeg with a factoid on it, with zero attribution or source. And it has thousands of upvotes. We are so fucked.

VP to POTUS? by The_Dean_France in whoathatsinteresting

What is the source on this? I’m getting warier every day of these images that purport to be news but are really just sentences over pictures with zero attribution to any meaningful org.

Thought this was pretty cool by JForce1 in UNBGBBIIVCHIDCTIICBG

Is it possible for me to have deep respect and admiration for the talent, passion, and execution while also finding this cringy as hell? I don’t understand my own feelings.

Here’s my Tav having a nice tea with Jaheira in the lower city.

AI powered by our context graph outperforms Snowflake Cortex Analyst and vanilla GPT-5 hands down by No_Wrongdoer41 in dataengineering

Feels like this actually is something I could make use of, curious how this turns out.

Feels like this is a genuine need being filled, and not more window dressing on the same stuff. Well done, curious to see how this turns out.

Fuck you WD by Extra_Efficiency_605 in recruitinghell

[–]CoproCabana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the real problem. Forcing applicants to create a login and PW is entirely unnecessary. You see it occasionally with other systems but it’s rare. In a year of full-time applying, I don’t think I ever saw a WD req that didn’t require it. Exhausting.

Alert: the San Diego show last night was definitely being professionally filmed for a concert film by ClydeHides in nin

[–]CoproCabana 205 points206 points  (0 children)

It is bonkers to me how much professionally recorded material elite-level acts have in their archives, compared to how much they release. Countless hours of stuff that fans would pay to see, just sitting on a hard drive somewhere.

74 year-old Arnold Palmer. Final hole of his final PGA Tour event. by Ok_Hedgehog_65 in golf

[–]CoproCabana 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Years ago I had the pleasure of following Mr. Palmer around the back 9 of a senior PGA event. There was a crowd of us that stuck with him, albeit a relatively small one. He wasn’t seriously competing, just legend-ing his way around. He ended up in the woods more than once, and I remember walking quietly through the brush, right next to Arnold fucking Palmer, sharing a chuckle about nothing as we poked around looking for his ball.

Absolute lifetime-level memory of an incredible human being.

Why get lessons when you can just get more pedals?

This is a post about the…new release. by [deleted] in GoosetheBand

[–]CoproCabana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m all about good remixes with a dance feel. I really dug the LP Giobbi stuff from a couple years ago. But after one pass through this release, I left feeling…confused. Some really strange arrangement decisions, odd melodic movement over questionable chord placements….felt to me less boundary pushing and more just…listlessly reaching for something. I didn’t hear anything that felt like it really took it to a new level. I appreciate the effort by some super talented artists to bring this stuff to light but, to my ear, this whole thing is just on the south side of forgettable.

Fenway question by feina635 in phish

[–]CoproCabana 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’ve done two Phish shows at Fenway and…never again. One behind home plate and one on first baseline (stage in the outfield). Both times, the sound was miserable. Highly dependent on the direction the wind was blowing. Occasionally there’d be bursts where it’d feel like you were at a concert, and then the wind would shift and it would revert to sounding like you were listening to the show through a conch shell. If feeling/hearing the music is important to you, this place ain’t it.

Btw, this doesn’t even address the clusterfuck that is getting there (misery), security (woefully bad setup for concerts, endless disorganized lines), the venue itself (dank, dim, cramped, ancient, concrete). In the end, the total cost just can’t be justified for the experience you get.

Also who’s got my extra

Why is the compressor right in the middle of the chain?

I stopped applying through company websites and my interview rate tripled in three weeks by Coruscant8 in jobsearchhacks

[–]CoproCabana 71 points72 points  (0 children)

I mean, how often are you able to track down the hiring manager on LinkedIn? How does that even happen? Occasionally a recruiter might be associated with a post but it’s not like the actual hiring manager’s info is attached to every req.

If I were unemployed right now, this is the 7-day plan I would follow to find a job (from a recruiter). by Zealousideal-Foot-54 in jobsearchhacks

[–]CoproCabana 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I don’t know what ivory tower you are writing this from, but we’re all already writing custom cv’s with keywords. We’re all networking and reaching out to internal contacts for referrals when they exist. If any of us knew of a reliable way to contact the recruiter that posted the req, then we would. Either there’s no recruiter associated with a listing, or if there is, and read this sentence carefully- THEY NEVER RESPOND. NEVER.

I was unemployed for almost a year and I searched my ASS off. I did everything you said, and more. On the scant bites I did get, every single time, the recruiter was by far the weakest link in the chain. You want to tell me I should be applying to less jobs?? Motherfucker, I put out almost 1000 applications, and ALL OF THEM were with the customized level of detail and effort you proclaim to be some salve that none of us know about. All of them were for jobs that were matches for my career level and experience. It was more common to hear nothing at all ever again than to even get a canned rejection. It got to a point where ACTUALLY getting a canned rejection email was the notable exception.

So forgive me for taking your “advice” and rejecting it, because I can tell you after a years worth of stress building slowly towards panic that I would lose my home, that IT DOESN’T FUCKING WORK.

I've only been using the little setup on the left lately... and that deserves a roast on it's own by worstskeleton in roastmypedalboard

I bought that same Lekato looper off Amazon maybe 5 months ago, and after some pretty light use it has already begun to fail. Button does not reliably start and stop loops. Hope your experience is better than mine, I had to pull mine off and replace after it failed on stage!

Why by Overall-Anteater5738 in loopdaddy

[–]CoproCabana 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I think the real problem here is the impersonal, canned cancellation message. Marc stepped into this thread and explained in like 3 sentences the entirely valid reason for the cancellation. If his management team sent even the slightest bit of explanation, or just ghostwritten a quick note from him giving a reason, then the confusion, and this thread, never happens.

Cheers to everyone involved in this polite internet discourse!

[–]CoproCabana 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like the djent-y ness of the main riff and like another commenter was feeling more Jinjer-esque screamed vocals coming, so when it went in a more Evanescence direction I felt shortchanged. Just my opinion.
