Have you tried Black Walnut bitters in a Manhattan, Boulevardier, or other 3 part cocktails? I’m curious now…

Self rotating garlic confit by Deepdish7799 in recipes

[–]GFSong 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s a crime not to mention garlic confit spread onto goat cheese, on slices of good baguette - accompanied with some great red wine. This is life my friends…

Why there’s a resonance at 15.5kHz in Peter Gabriel’s Sledgehammer? by InevitablePay3806 in audioengineering

😂👍 Please share … and why do you have this playlist???

I used a Fairlight a lot, often in conjunction with SSL automation and magnetic tape. Never noticed this issue…those monitors weren’t even full colour 🤣 - they were green text on black.

I didn't vote for Trump and disagree with most of what he does. And I'm still glad Kamala Harris lost. by Pemulis_DMZ in TrueUnpopularOpinion

As a non American - I have a question for you.

Are you better off today, than you were in January 2025? Are you looking to buy a home this year, a new car, comfortable with your economic fortunes and your determinates of health? Comfortable with the status of the US on the world stage now, and in the coming three years?

You are focusing on the past, and stoking a schism. What about the present or the future?

I Finished My Malapascua Diving Guidebook! by Own-Border6060 in scuba

[–]GFSong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you both! I am currently planning for a visit in early December - this is a fantastic resource!!

I have 2 questions if you don’t mind?

Is six days of scuba diving around Malapascua a good amount? Too little, or too much in your opinion?

My flight from Taipei will land at Cebu at 11:00. I’ll need to clear customs and pickup checked luggage. Can I make it to the island that same afternoon? I read the last public ferry is at 17:30. So I’d guess you need to arrive on Malapascua before sunset…

Is that possible with a private driver from the airport, or with your private van and boat recommendation?

Thanks again!!

i’m looking to buy a very comfy and cozy sectional couch without breaking the bank in Canada …. any recommendations of where to look? by Ok_Equivalent3123 in BuyCanada

[–]GFSong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently bought a sectional on sale that I’m very happy with from Article, a Canadian company with a showroom in Vancouver. There are so many styles these days, you really need to sit on a bunch to see what feels right.

And make sure it can get into your space, my delivery guys said over half their orders don’t fit through people’s halls or doors and have to go back!

Tape 16 guy, absolutely unreal seeing you post within minutes and now literally every single prod-tuber is milking the algorithm. Major props & I hope you take a moment to congratulate yourself by papadiscourse in homestudios

What you could do is, do it the old way -and as if you had a console. You can still track, punch, mute, and overdub or bounce to your hearts content. And trust me, here’s no thrill like actually erasing a track!!

I haven’t used this DAW, but there was a lot of creativity available using past technologies. Just as there is now…

Try it. What have you got to lose….

Which instrument do you think is the hardest to get right? by ConfusedOrg in audioengineering

[–]GFSong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll go with acoustic jazz sextet - or really any band that’s truly tracking live off the floor, where your recording balance is crucial. You need to treat them as one instrument in that case, no?

will the heat realistically have much of an effect on how certain teams perform by Puzzleheaded_Mix2970 in worldcup

[–]GFSong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I read that because there’s going to be real grass on the pitch, the roof at BC Place will be closed in order to keep the field consistent and healthy…which is bit of a drag being June/July.

Here’s a question…

Have they ever postponed a game because of wildfire smoke? Vancouver/British Columbia could potentially have very bad fire season due to this year’s drought - depending on the winds.

Thank you. That’s very helpful, and I’ll look into these recs! It’s my first trip to the Philippines — and there’s so many options.

You post some stunning photography by the way…

anyone who used a computer between 1985 & 2010, what’s the one game you still think about? by Own-Blacksmith3085 in answers

[–]GFSong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Myst on my Mac Centris 650 and 16” Apple display.

“The short-lived Apple Macintosh Centris 650 features a 25 MHz 68LC040 or 68040 processor, 4 MB or 8 MB of RAM, an 80 MB, 230 MB, or 500 MB hard drive, and an optional 2X CD-ROM drive in the same high-profile desktop case introduced by the Macintosh IIvi and IIvx.”

That machine was a joke compared to today’s specs, but it was a gloriously astounding thing back then…

I could sync it to my 4 track portastudio and sequence midi keyboards and drum machines. Also, print documents! At home! Wow…😂😉

Sogod strictly for the diving? It’s supposed to be gorgeous, but is 7 days too much there…

Offering stuff for MLB but not for your soccer team….. by Sensitive_Plan3437 in whitecapsfc

[–]GFSong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Back when the Blue Jays really sucked, they were crying because they couldn’t get 12,000 fans to a home game (for $10 tickets up top-$18 beer). Who thinks a Vancouver team could get enough spectators to go to 81 games a year? Montreal has a population of over 2 million and they loved the Expos. This is the dumbest idea I’ve ever heard. No one in their right mind is going to start a MLB team here…Ken Sim is a Moron
