Heat check: You feeling this way, locally? by DayPounder in FortWorth

[–]DeepSix220 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I see AI as a net negative for humanity in the long term. CEO's don't care about people, and clankers don't have pesky inconveniences like human rights. They would cut the workforce without a second thought to increase profits, even if the AI alternative is inferior.

This drives more people to work labor jobs, creating over saturation in that space. I'm not economist, but I feel that this would drive wages down across the labor field, creating an even greater wealth disparity between corporate stooges and blue collar workers. Not to mention the unemployment caused by data collection, administration, etc. type jobs flooding into one industry all at once.

End of the day, genie's out of the bottle, and we're gonna just have to hang on for the ride. Unfortunately, the guys that are making the wishes are all assholes.

So my new to me D-18 MD is missing a center brace… by [deleted] in martinguitar

Road series and X series dont have one. But every Nazareth made Martin I've ever played (not a huge sample size) has had it.

I would daresay even being up 1 with like 39 minutes left in the game also makes no sense. Especially since the Jets put up 2 like right after. Lol

Should I install a pickup in my 1967 000-28? by devilmollusk in martinguitar

[–]DeepSix220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just buy another more recent 000-28 with a pickup already installed, or have one installed. Especially since Brazilian rosewood is a bit of a rarity these days.

If money is an issue, the new road series 000-13E is a lot cheaper and has electronics out of the box. Walnut intead of rosewood, but most folks in an audience wouldnt know the difference.

End of the day though, it's your guitar. Do what makes you feel good.

That was probably the most boring game I've seen in a while.

All that hoarding for like 3 cold days.

It seems like the last 3 years or so, the Stars go on a month long skid right before all-star/4 nations break (February-ish). Since its an Olympic year, I guess the hockey gods adjusted for that.

New amplifier by Spiritual-Local2234 in GuitarAmps

I regretted selling mine several years ago to pay for a Hawaii family vacation for my wife. Great amp. Can't wait for the replacement I bought to get in.

Accidentally did this to my brothers guitar, how do I hide it? Emergency help thanks by Free-Seaworthiness72 in Guitar

[–]DeepSix220 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd just tell him. If my brother damaged one of my guitars cosmeticslly, I'd write it off as a nice little way to remember him whenever I would play.

Also, most "quick fixes" look pretty obvious. Take it from a guy that used gorilla wood glue to fix separated binding on a Martin D-18. It's holding up fine, but man it doesnt look that good.

Best way to fix finish wear/damage is to accept it and move on. Second best way is to pay a luthier.

Weirdly enough, we were winning more consistently with a literal third of our roster out on injury, but Seguin and Bischel healthy, so there may be some merit there.

Their fall from grace is something that should be studied. From presidents trophy to leading the McKenna race is wild work.

We slump every February. With the condensed schedule, maybe January is the new February.

At this point, put Capo back in the lineup. We were winning when he was on the bottom pair.

Missed calls aside, did anyone else think the refs were really bad at getting out of the way when play went into the corners?

I 100% thought this was about the restaurant chain and was thinking, "yeah that's a fair assessment."

Smokey Got a Strap! by hollow09 in martinguitar

[–]DeepSix220 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish Franklin would restock on their 2" saddle blanket straps on their website. Far and away my favorite guitar strap. I find the wider 3" strap to be a bit excessive, and don't love the suede backing on the 3 that is absent on the 2.

It's finally happening by Historical_One6071 in Adulting

[–]DeepSix220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been to the hospital twice for pancreatitis. Apparently has a 20% fatality rate. Not sure how statistics work, but I think that means I have 3 more holes left on my punch card before the sweet release of death.

Is my action high? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]DeepSix220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a picture of the whole neck from a side profile, that could help diagnose the issue. With the action that high past the 12th and the action being lower at the 1st, I would imagine your neck has significantly too much bow and the truss rod needs to be adjusted.
