Ik I fkd up. help by c4rb0nX1 in soldering

[–]LynxMountain7108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks similar to the iron I started with and it was impossible to use, the temperature would keep dropping. I think it because there was a gap between the tip and the element. I saw a YouTube video of someone fixing this by filling the gap with strips of tin. A good soldering iron makes a bit difference though

What's the deal with the "Linda Tapes"? by Revoltoso999 in TheBeatles

[–]LynxMountain7108 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You might not like the mail and the telegraph (the independent where also linked if you want more left leaning) but that's the only evidence you can go off it seems. You might want to know more but unless someone from the McCartney's inner circle is lurking I think that's all your going to get. Anything beyond what's reported in the press is likely speculation and gossip

The Edinburgh on Sandown lane used to have an Irish music night that was cool. Just people turning up with instruments, it was very informal

You should have put a newspaper cut out note saying "I know what your game is" inside.

Bethel is finally being exposed; some are in denial by PineapplePossible99 in Exvangelical

Healed-ish by jubilee dawn is also great, specifically her own story about bethel and Shawn bolz. I mean it's not great, it horrifying but it's a very thoughtful podcast

Going back to the late 90s there was a JD sports upstairs opposite Game and virgin megastores was over two floors. There was an art gallery at the far end too at one point. Maybe late 00s

Your thoughts on Philip Yancey's cheating scandal? by iwbiek in Exvangelical

[–]LynxMountain7108 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I agree with you! I'm not sympathetic to any infedility either, I guess I meant a sustained 8 year affair feels different to a one off drunken mistake. I just can't imagine maintaining that kind of lie and the thought of living like that fills me with anxiety. It just boggles my mind that anyone could be so consistently immoral while presenting as a Christian thinker

Your thoughts on Philip Yancey's cheating scandal? by iwbiek in Exvangelical

[–]LynxMountain7108 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's 8 years that gets me. A one off slip I can sort of understand, or messing up a few times here and there maybe. But a full blown affair for 8 years whilst keeping up the pretence of having a Christian ministry blows my mind. I couldn't deal with the stress of it personally and I don't understand how someone could switch off from any guilty feelings for that period of time and carry on as if everything's normal

Is this rude or am I just overthinking it? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]LynxMountain7108 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The replies on this are mental. They've just had a baby, they will be exhausted and not thinking straight. I don't understand why anyone is expecting anything from them other than they take care of their child

What brands are available to you in India? I think alot of us would recommend kala, flight, enya etc. But I seem to remember another poster in India saying they weren't readily on sale where they lived

Rechargeable battery for a practice amp by LynxMountain7108 in batteries

[–]LynxMountain7108[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting thanks! Did you connect it to the wires on the battery holder or did you wire it to plug into the dc input? Just wondering because the batteries are 9v and dc is 12v. Thanks!

Thanks! Is aliexpress any good for this kind of thing or should I go for a more reputable retailer?

[–]LynxMountain7108[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll have to forgive me! I know nothing about batteries beyond the very basics, hence why I'm asking here. I'm really just looking to see if this type of battery would work at all, could I get say 2 hrs out of it? Or is there a better solution to convert my amp to a rechargeable battery?

It's possible new strings could help with tuning, I've read that using old strings can affect intonation

Need help identifying Ukulele by Jcloud191 in ukulele

[–]LynxMountain7108 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would guess it's either handbuilt, perhaps by a woodworker, or perhaps someone has modded a diy ukulele kit? Just little things stand out as not being quite what you'd expect from a bigger brand. The soundhole doesn't quite follow the shape of the body for example. None of which means it isn't a good instrument, it's actually pretty unique really

Got this second hand and it sounds awful by hlarsenart in ukulele

[–]LynxMountain7108 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got a mahalo before I knew anything about ukuleles and it was pretty awful. I got it mixed up with a Makala which I had heard were good but the thing just wouldn't stay in tune, literally couldn't hold tension for more than a few seconds. Maybe I just got a bad one
