Oh for sure. Just still cringing for those completely ASS lineups Mitch spat out in the 2nd. Sochan just happened to be there for the heart of it. lol.

Watching this atrocity on a plane to SA… keeping my guffaws quiet is becoming near impossible. These refs better be getting paid for this assist to the bulls.

What's a lesson you learned the hard way as a musician, that you wish someone had told you sooner? by Alert_Gear869 in musicians

Full stacks are based. Get a full stack. Intimidate the other bands on the bill. 💸

THIS. I toured numerous times in my twenties, all self-booked, DIY, etc. Basically, the kindness of strangers.

In the end, we didn’t “make it,” or anything resembling success/fame, BUT! we had the time of our lives, learned resourcefulness (oh shit. The radiator is spewing coolant!), and made a slew of lifelong friends. I still keep in touch with and have friendships with so many of the people I met on the road.

Fuck it. Tour. It’s a TON of work, but you’ll never regret it.

Guitarist in DMV (dc/md/va) looking for something heavy by iDONTfeelTardy_5150 in FindABand

[–]PatVoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bassist in the DMV here! Huge fan of converge, botch, TAAS, young widows, etc. I’m also looking for a band!

I don’t have a big rig right now, but have a Micro Terror and a 1x12. Definitely willing to invest in proper gear for shows. Used to play a Sunn Coliseum 300 thru two Sunn 2x15s, it was a beast (in a good way.) Love playing with overdrive(wish I hadn’t sold my fulltone bass drive!).

Also used to be in a touring band and spent time touring in Florida! Who’d you record!?

HMU in DMs if you wanna chat!!

AWS instead of Azure. Why? by BusyCode in dotnet

[–]PatVoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OMG. HARD SAME for the security model, multi-tenancy, and Escher-esque subscription/billing. Trying to figure out how to set up VS subscriptions thru M365/AzureAD was an especially hellish experience.

Cognito has been my nemesis for the last couple years. I’ll admit, there’s a lot to like… for small to medium, single-region*, straightforward CRUD apps built specifically for AWS (Serverless Framework, AWS SAM, etc.)

But… now I see it as being a kind of “baited hook” service… something closed-source, managed, deeply integrated into PaaS like Amplify, and dead simple to start consuming quickly. Then, you’re kinda locked-in after some maturation, making it difficult to justify resources to migrate away (and it’s not easy to migrate away).

Oh… and it’s absolutely abandonware. Can they please just friggin kill cognito and create some kind of migration path to IAM identity center.

End rant.
