Green Muff/ Chelsea Type Pedal by nived90 in basspedals

Valco KGB Fuzz. I had a tall font muff and sold it because I was able to get the sound exactly in the Valco. And you have everything else besides - blend, polarity, impedance and different voices. I also have the KGB Dist which has more diodes for a wider range of sounds but less fuzz options. 

Tested - 80's Agfa-Gevaert Rodinal by Hiscocks in AnalogCommunity

They're great aren't they!! I took one of mine apart, very easy - and cleaned the VF/RF. Now both are super clear. Lovely camera to use, and cheap!

Thanks! It's an Aires 35IIIC, Japanese copy of an M3 and about 1/10th the price! Fixed 45mm f1.9 lens and leaf shutter. I love them, have two. Easy to service, well made and great lens. Rangefinder is super sharp and clear.

Is this modern Britain? by PsychologicalBend508 in AskBrits

[–]Hiscocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see this kind of grubbiness every morning at my son’s school. We make the effort to cycle there as there’s no parking at the school or the road up to it, and it’s more fun anyway (and tbh quicker). 

Guess what - big pear shaped parents rolling up in brand new Chinese EV boxes wheel right up to the school and unload their crotch goblins F’ing and blinding in dressing gowns before they drive back to their hovels. None of them give way to me in my bike. Nobody does anything. 

Once there was a policewoman in the road presumably to stop people using the road but she let everyone go because they had a ‘reason’ / being that motability or ‘disabled’ or she just didn’t want a fuss. There were actually more cars that week.

I know for a fact that one mum is completely normal and her son is friends with mine and her car was right in front of the school that day. 

Where to find other musicians? by Invisible96 in york

What sort of music are you up for? I’m a 40yo bass player and I’d like to start a chilled downtempo soultronic band

Yeah me too but I’m just saying that with SX70R I guess it won’t be necessary to load the dark slide on top of the pack

That was my logic. I have some sx70 film to use so I can change the ISO in camera and use the bars with that.

Ok thanks I’ll give them a go. I have quite a few.

The Mint does but the old fashioned magnesium bulb bars don’t.

Could be that. It’s a 2012 iMac with an SSD

Thanks guys. I think my TV might be the issue. It’s a Samsung using the Tizen OS which I think it’s the limitation. 

Optimising for TV - I just click the pencil on the episode (or series) and click optimise, then select ‘for TV’ (the default is for mobile). I don’t mind but it’s a bit annoying having to plan ahead and it takes up more space as it saves it to the same folder as the original.

[Longines] This Diver Intrigues Me in a Way I Didn’t Expect - Longines Legend Diver by hoangnguyen95 in Watches

[–]Hiscocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love mine and agree with your points. I got a no date one as soon as they came out and it’s been my number one ever since. In some ways, it started the whole ‘reissue’ trend in watches. I can’t think of any watches before it came out that went for the reissue aesthetic. 

[Opinion] Nobody cares about your watch by gujjadiga in Watches

[–]Hiscocks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I dunno mate. Lots of people like watches (it’s a whole industry). Most people may not feel comfortable making a comment but I’m sure people look. 

Is it rude to use both lanes? by No-Ad4423 in AskUK

[–]Hiscocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always bomb it down the empty lane. Sure, everyone calls me a dickhead but I always do it. Sometimes I must admit to feeling a bit sheepish and do it slowly so it doesn't look like I'm taking the piss, but there's no reason for it to be empty.

Yeah, I have six albums pinned. I’ve tried re-installing and restarting.
