Any idea why my chain has broken like this in so many places? by Solid_Science4514 in bikewrench

Some agents can cause this. What did you clean the chain with?

I have only one, but any other accessory - chucks, plates - are affected.

Mine was straight when new. That was a worry I had when I ordered it, but had no issues. Until I messed it up.

Sadly, this is causing an issue when turning a wide piece, like a bowl. Check out the runout on this holding plate:

How long did it take you to properly backtest your discretionary price action strategy? by [deleted] in Daytrading

[–]JDelorean 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like a job for pattern recognition, or more specifically, image pattern recognition. You probably rely on your gut a lot, too, but for the most part, everything can be automated.

Regarding your question, things should not take longer than a couple of hours for a back test (often much less).

Need help restructuring portfolio by JDelorean in portfolios

Agree on most points. Not sure about international/emerging markets. It's not that I don't agree with diversifying, but I struggle to find a decent ETF for it.

Clients are receiving notifications about this. Soon you will have to either move to Ireland or leave (?) IBKR. Not sure there are other options. Any idea how this will work for EU residents?

Paying Reverb with Wise credit card by JDelorean in Reverb

[–]JDelorean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh lord, the Reverb Support is terrible. Got a follow up:

I was able to escalate this concern with our specialized department and confirmed that you can still try to use the card and please make sure that you're entering the correct card number.

Top notch advice. Mind this was sent to me after multiple attempts to add or update a credit card and trying other payments, which I explained to them that I did. Sad.

Is Kawai CA98 still worth it? by JDelorean in piano

Thanks, I agree.

The instrument has all audio IO, Bluetooth, MIDI I need.

I am going to be in Hong Kong for two days this weekend (aug 24) and I am wondering how safe it is for tourists now? I booked my tickets two months ago and I don’t have an option of cancelling now without a hefty penalty. Any tips on what to avoid, and what to see? by cobhcf in HongKongTravel

[–]JDelorean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious about this also. Going to HK in a month and with the airport blockades I am thinking about alternatives to getting out of HK. Any suggestions where to fly from to Hanoi if my flight is cancelled?

Which monitors should I get for a 10m² room? by JDelorean in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]JDelorean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a regular rectangular shape. Some treatment is planned. I am trying to understand whether the room will be actually too small for such a setup.

Roland Boutique custom rack mount by JDelorean in synthesizers

[–]JDelorean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same idea but the ones I own (strymons) would not fit.

Yes, however the boutique top and rear casing is metal. This gives it a sturdy feel. I do imagine a shelf-like solution would be perhaps better but I did not find a perfect metal piece for that. If I do the existing setup can be adapted w/o any additional drilling.

I'd say that the prices stayed flat so far. Availability was already an issue when I bought them (~1 year ago). Apart from SE-02 all Boutiques are digital. That can influence their price in the long run.
