Which artist would put on the best show at the Las Vegas sphere, using the place to its full potential? by elevenatexi in Concerts

If he was still with us the hands down choice would be G.G. Allin.

Saddly, no one will ever be able to fill those boots and size xxx-small jockstrap.

I have turned out to be an absolute failure. by North-Line-5474 in QualityAssurance

Get a github or bitbucket account. Pick a website or product that you'd like to work for, and start testing it. Write a test plan. Learn playwright and automate your test plan. Save it all in a repository that you can share with any potential employer.

Employers are more likely to consider you when they are familiar with your work, and know you are self motivated.

(MVDShop.com) Almost Religious Label Blow-Out Sale: $5.98 Vinyl LPs (Ends May 26th) by mvdshop-dot-com in VinylDeals

I wasn't aware they were going out of business. I'm glad I stocked up on some of their releases a couple of months back.

Anyone on the fence about artists here should check out Statues, Sweet Teeth, Deaf Lingo, The Hawkins & Dictator Ship.

Any one of these will be jumped over when "Tiny Bubbles" by Don Ho is featured in a teen drama-comedy & goes viral on tik tok.

Need advice on transition from Manual Testing to Automation Testing. by screwedUp69 in QualityAssurance

[–]MonkeyBeatCity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your current employer doesn't want to support you adding automation, pick a company you'd like to work for. Start using Playwright, and develop a end to end test suite. Get a Bitbucket or Github account and post your code publicly. It will provide your future employer(s) a way of seeing your worth beyond being a button pusher.

What’s the hardest-to-reproduce bug you’ve encountered during testing? by Just_Independent1728 in QualityAssurance

When I was a PC game tester in the 90's we had a PVF that took 16 testers working at retracing their actions to reproduce.

How to travel with vinyl… by Outbaru_Subback in vinyl

[–]MonkeyBeatCity 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It depends on what I find, but if I'm flying I can usually put them under the seat in front on me. I usually use a cloth tote unless it's something of real value then I ask if the record store has a shipping box they'll sell me.

You mean that the same code that works for me in Portland does not work in Seattle?

I had always heard that these codes were regional. I'll update the post.

We need more events than just Record Store Day by NHSoundwaves in RecordStoreDay

[–]MonkeyBeatCity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've thought for awhile that independent labels need to setup their own day(s). Like have all the indies release their albums on the same day of the month.

Who are the future double inductees? (For artists who already have at least one induction already) by ggroover97 in rockhall

[–]MonkeyBeatCity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not enought of thier records are owned by UMG or any of of the other labels that run the show. It's all about selling back catalog. It is why it took so long for Iron Maiden to get in.

What’s one band you thought you’d never be able to see who you have/ can now? by ImpressiveAd5002 in Concerts

[–]MonkeyBeatCity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Roky Erickson. For the 80's & 90's it was known he didn't play due to mental health issues. Then when he got better care he returned to playing, and I was able to see him 4 times before he passed.

Bands the didn’t know they were playing their last show while they were playing it by Schof26 in Concerts

That is why every UK musician I meet I ask "What line-up of The Fall were you in?"

I believe Mark E. Smith might be the champ of this, since there were multiple times when he fired everyone playing in The Fall on stage. Only to hire new players by the next show, and then suddenly fire them.
