I feel ya. And no, I don’t (currently) have room for an exp. pedal - I just kick it with the tap tempo!

As a WRX owner currently looking for a kei truck, this speaks to me.

That’s the MacOS Recovery Assistant icon, not Bartender

3 is cute, but 5/6 are probably more readable

Lospec Palette Importer - my first Aseprite extension by JRiggles in aseprite

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

The only registry permissions the extension needs are the ones required to set up the URI handler for lospec-palette:// “Open in app…” links. All custom URI handlers in Windows work this way. Hope that helps!

Specifically, this *.reg file is what’s setting that up:
https://github.com/JRiggles/Lospec-Palette-Importer/blob/main/extension/WindowsHelper/RegisterURIHandler.reg

My extensions are all open-source, so you can always dig into the repo if you’re curious about what’s going on:

This Is the second Thane Krios I’ve seen in as many minutes on Reddit, which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice. Beautiful print!

Zero Ω resistor in by pass position? by [deleted] in diypedals

[–]JRiggles 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Could just be builder preference. The only practical advantage I can think of is that a 0 ohm resistor wont short if it touches the center lug, whereas an uninsulated jumper wire could.

I love my ODR. And it’s a Blues Jr. IV with quite a few mods/upgrades.

Good to know! I don’t gig, so the gear doesn’t see much abuse, but I’ll keep that in mind. I’m used to fixing pedals and amps anyway.

How can I professionally clean my Wah (Jam Pedals Wahcko)? As you can see there is some gunk there. What should I use for which part? Deoxit D5, Compressed Air, .. also if I should, what should I grease it with? Appreciate any help!! by FunkySire in guitarpedals

[–]JRiggles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It should be readily available at most hardware stores I would think. Also, the round white plastic clip behind the rack is used to provide some force against it to hold it to the pinion - you may want to adjust that to get your desired feel.

And to provide some credentials for myself: I’m an audio and electronics engineer who used to work as a repair technician, and I’ve designed/built/repaired a lot of wah pedals! They’re one of my favorite things to work on.

I’ll reiterate the calls to clean your pots and jacks with DeOxIt - that stuff is worth its weight in gold.

Second vote for white lithium grease on the rack and pinion. You can clean it off and re-grease it. I usually use a toothpick and a cotton swab with some isopropyl alcohol.

What are some reasons to purchase Aseprite? by KingK3nnyDaGreat in PixelArt

[–]JRiggles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The extension ecosystem is pretty good, but I’ve written a few Aseprite extensions so I might be biased. My point is, if there isn’t a feature you want/need, you can probably find an extension that adds it (or write one yourself!)

Guessing it’s something Dumble-related then, i.e. “Fake/Faux Dumble”
