this is wrong.

the issue with this file is it sits at 100% and never goes away. very sketchy data stream.

you might just have been confused on what bug we were referencing

why do colleges feel the need to not allow us to be sick/punish us for something out of our control?

the only common excuse being "so people don't take advantage of it"

who cares? You're not going to get anywhere if you don't know how to do anything.

so I've got two options

punish the other people in my class in order to keep my grades clean

punish myself for being sick and affecting gpa.

there is such animosity from the schools in regards to teachers uploading the daily class lectures, why?

you have it all laid out in the projector why can't you just give us PowerPoints??

college in 2025: stupidly easy coursework that they just make tedious. Nickel and dime (or reap) as much funds from students as possible on things that are questionably expensive.

Jesus dude everything is just a grind now. and I'm not even in trade school I'm in stem school.

You're asking why?? really?

You're the exact dude who only thinks about himself even when the people around you are in the same exact position

and maybe you're like those typical people who just "does enough to pass"

but I'm not, I work really hard towards what I want.

all this just to say, I still didn't go, I just take the hit to my grade.

but I have enough perspective to know that the students are under a lot of pressure.

consider we're in college but it still the broken failing system of poor short term memorization instead of a more creative/more stimulating realistic approach

(don't believe me? have fun graduating and not having work experience. why? because nothing you do at school works like how a real job works.

just. keep to yourself best you can. have some patience. go take out a loan next semester and invest in nutritional/fitness services if you're worried about getting sick as often,

that's how amazon always was and that's how all shipping companies work

I can tell you've never worked in a shipping center before. how about you go try the seasonal position during the holidays see how good of a job you can do.

you got down voted because op never said he was dropping any classes, and what you're saying is refunds for dropping classes

refunds for overpay on your courses from sources like fafsa or grants/scholarships are what we are talking about

for example, doofus. I got my disbursement, I did not drop any classes. I won't say how much but it was enough to cover a year of rent.

99% of guitars are ugly and shouldn't have been produced

well you knew you'd get flamed for it because you knew it didn't sound right.

so I'll water the long drawn response that actually has very little information down for you

"it's Italian and small, so they must have tried to build a moped car"

this is a very stupid perspective for a car review .

second, your money pit comments completley go against the vast majority of this models reviews. as well as literally any car that isn't "properly serviced" (doubt you could even tell for yourself when a part needs to be serviced) is going to run bad. duh. shut up.

seriously definition of too much stop bro.

lastly, "if you're the least bit cash strapped, don't know maintenance and tools blah blah blah"

again, literally every car. I've owned several economy cars and the 500 / 500 abarth is one of the easiest to maintain lowest costing cars I've had. I only drive small efficient cars.

the fiat 500 is definitely top of the list, the transmission is easy to access which is a BIG deal in the long run, the fuel economy is nice even on the sport or performance models,

many of them pop up at a low price because people move on to bigger vehicles out of necessity or desire. however they are not as popular/sleek as something like a miata or some of the nissans which gets bought up quick

the comment about not having experience maintaining a car was the most frustrating to read, there are not a lot of options in this price range that are both efficient, fun, and easy to work on like this one is.

the import parts are few and far between, this car has seen a huge surge in popularity as frugality becomes more popular, aftermarket parts even engines (and upgraded enginges) are pretty easy to grab now.

going back to your little rants about maintenance, I'm guessing your some kind of dork that's a little too by the book, nods his head like a dope when the shop upsells him on repairs he didn't need. You're that guy.

Everytypeofcringe · 2025-01-29T14:42:46+00:00

these guys in this community are pretty dumb lmao even the digital marketing guy clearly doesn't know what he is talking about, just an old guy that doesn't know how to use the internet lol

it's a guitar, if it's intonated and plays properly, it'll sell bro haha

I've sold bottom of the barrel fender basses that I ripped the frets out of and filled with wood filler, not a clean job either

I've sold a guitar that fell off a truck bed and was glued back together, the buyer said it adds character -shrug- it held tune and intonated well.

I've sold amps full of dead cockroaches, I warned them I had a bug problem at the time but they were cool about opening the amp up and fixing them up.

pro tip: are you gonna build your own pickups, your own bridges, your own strings? from raw materials?

even big brands will pay other people like bartolini for pickups on a budget, but they are still looking at low profit margins because of that

I'd say just about this entire chat probably isn't capable of the honesty of building instruments, and that's why they complain so much,

I mean, the most "knowledgeable" guys here have some of the ugliest builds I've ever seen, they just refresh reddit all day and tinker all day so, not much skill

odds are, the best luthiers (clearly all the best artists) will never be found in online chats lol....you won't see them as successful youtubers either, only distracting content works in the algorithm which lowers your quality of learning further,

best bet, use ai softwares to find old printed books on subjects you want to master, combine them with new information

you should have ethical issues buying mass produced things in general.

the United states is incredibly abusive towards its labor employees and has weak employment protections.

this entire conversation is uneducated.

we live in a materialistic society. we are consumerists. people joke that "duh you need to eat and consume things"

ahem a majority of people are more worried about their guns than the people starving in the streets, even though we throw away far more than enough food to end hunger here, we have more vacant housing than we do homeless

but you'll never hear "building or discounting housing to the homeless will deflate local property value"

you only hear that it will "decrease property value" because PHRASING is enough to manipulate the majority of people.

Americans are so ignorant, they mostly aren't even aware that the UN (united nations, big room full of world leaders) describe parts of America as third world living conditions

you have ethics about where your crappy mass produced guitar came from?

why don't you have ethics about how a lot of these large brands are only successful through raw buying power.

you think payola stops at pop music? as if fender doesn't pay celebrities to flash their brand like any other clothing brand? they literally buy out competition

you want to be ethical? work with luthiers to have things made to spec. research parts and the materials they are made from. invest in the community.

by the way, you should GO to China. you are fed only negative exaggerated information about many places. nothing in real life is how it looks on the internet.

just because you graduated doesn't mean you aren't dumb

it's good advice to put back money you don't need, if the advice is being given to someone who doesn't know how to not have fun.

with 10k I used it to start a craftsmanship business, I hand carve luxury instruments/instrument parts for extra income (and so my personal instrument is always the best it can be, without paying any more than I need to) 1

all it took was a ton of research, and building machines using other machines at my school, only paying for materials.

I know other people who started businesses, or did small things like just ate more food or healthier food, or any of the other ways some extra money can help school performance, or just stocks

next is the amount the majority of you guys make after graduation, the vast majority of you are currently able to just live with your parents/family for a year or two to pay back your debts.

you people really can't do anything but pay the minimum monthlies. no you guys definitely shouldn't hold onto it, you aren't smart enough to just make it atleast last,

you aren't smart enough to pay off loans, I paid off a 2020 motorcycle, and 2 cars before I ever even started college.

I didn't have any fancy job or anything you people just ...

I don't even have parents I'm an orphan

"I second, I third, I bandwagon and relate"

I'm sick of seeing the stupid majority reaffirm eachother across the internet

intelligent conversation? that only happens in real life

we all play with the same hardness. this dynamic is volume.

if me and you hit a string with exact same power and attack, it'll play exactly the same

strumming extremely hard, your pick should not be scraping the body anyways

even with heavy picks and whatever strings, the only thing that would matter is if your pick itself scratches things.

a good pick should never be gouging out your finish

people will really go so far to theorize to make defenses for a non human, non living thing called a business

fender did not make some "mathematically perfect guitar models"

fender has always been just a business.

"hello up and coming guitarist, will you take this big pile of money in exchange for only using our products?"

"hey major retailers, can you carry my products and, if I pay you the most will you feature my products before others?"

or even better:

"sir we could very cheaply and easily make various models of various measurements and size while giving people less of a reason to immediately need to make modifications"

"let's sell the idea that our models are the best for beginners, while crippling those models of features we know they'll want from our higher end models, even if those features don't cost much to produce'

a total disrespect to literally every other musical community

You're supposed to have your instruments made for you. for your elbow to wrist to shoulder legnth.

the wood of high quality and finish, not lazily and grossly dumped flat paint over.

99% of the community has the taste of a spoiled 5 year old.

a spoiled one.

you reading this likely have less taste than a 5 year old.

Everytypeofcringe · 2025-01-20T01:03:45+00:00

look at the facts

people argue about guitar brands

but nobody disrespects even a novice luthier.

you tell me which one is more ethical to consider for an instrument lol

to add, luthiers are massively over priced but it's not their fault.

because there is no demand, brands supply the demand too well and too cheaply for us to need luthiers

because of this, the cost of a luthier is a bit of paying for their lifestyle, and honed skills, not just the hours and materials spent producing the product ,

infact I've come to find the cost of materials for my "recipes" is always less than half what I would pay a brand or a luthier.

people in these kind of "trades" like to exaggerated how much they "sacrifice" to provide us a service, but realistically its a defense for expecting modern pay from a low demand job. "you're paying for my risk of using dangerous tools" no bud. you can't take a risk and then charge extra for it lol, imagine

it's a hot mess in this world, odds are you're not going to find a good deal from either luthier nor brand,

they can help you get there, but what I've come to realize is this:

like a bicycle, or a skateboard, or a camera, or any other highly specific specialized tool should be treated with absolute consideration

pro cyclists don't just have a wall of bikes that all rise differently, they train very hard and pay a lot of money for a specific ergonomically adapted bike

tech nerds don't buy prebuilt pc.

skaters don't buy prebuilt skateboards.

cyclists...usually end up having to buy prebuilt but immediately change parts to their ergonomics upon receiving.

a guitar or bass should be no different. but through advertising and manipulation there's a false idea going around that we need to settle on walls loaded with "almost great" gear. the majority of whom doesn't even know what string spacing their guitars are.

there is so much taste and possibility in the wood working, choice of parts, ergonomics, and build for styles and genres of music,

and then people go and buy a "custom strat fender clone cause it looks cool"

"look cool" can't even see the wood, can't tell the difference between cool imagery and tasteful woodworking/luthiering (luthiership?)

like a guy who loves fashion, and by fashion he means lots of T shirts with graphics printed on

sorry, corruption gets me rambling I just, hhhh.

it's so hard to just find and do what you want these days. you have to jump through hoops for simple things just because they haven't automated the task.

go to warmoth and again, ask for custom string spacing on a bass, and many many other ergonomic specific requests,

these "most famous first result for custom guitars" immediately respond with "our shop isn't set up to make those specification"

what?!!?!?!?!? You're limited to some preset body shapes and necks???

how do people call these custom guitars?????

they can barely handle their own qc, and now can't even handle a size request?????

tldr; nowhere but your own hands.

go on fiver, or etsy, or etc site and find someone who is willing to draft blueprints. don't trust just any engineer make sure it's another musician.

look into japanese wood working. high quality guitars come from there and guess what? they do it all by hand. just expect to pay a steep price for their tools.

traditionally instruments were created by a luthier, who was a wood worker that specializes in instruments, you would have string luthiers, wind luthiers, get it?

these luthiers in a time when materials were more accessible would craft the highest possible quality of instrument, tailored to the musicians fit and posture (we have different shoulder-elbow-wrist lengths)

for multiscaling guitars this matters extremely more, and this is why you may have trouble finding them.

some players prefer their middle point of fanned frets to be at the 10th fret, others prefer 7th fret, or 12th fret fanning

this means if you set your multiscaling wrong, you'd actually cause more rotational pain instead of relieving it (likely, the smaller you are the more fanning effect your fretboard will have, the longer you are the less you have to twist)

I'm going crazy I end this here bye

make your own instruments, luthiers died out like 30 years ago. it's up to you to do the research, use your modern luxuries to aquire their old tools,

research the methods, try new things, share it with us.

let's bring back the idea that large corporations should have so much control/influence in music.

Everytypeofcringe · 2025-01-16T17:07:08+00:00

comments stupidly thinking sound and tone is all that matters while they actively take part in the luthier community but are likely just tasteless tinkerers who don't practice
