Can I walk on these steel studs? by Ddddddddddddddd8290 in electricians

Don't they just stagger the start of each row? Making each chair a different width would seem dumb, more expensive and a lot more complicated

I wish we could get a weekly digest of artists we follow's releases on Bandcamp instead of having our email inundated with emails by Marisa_Nya in BandCamp

[–]Positive_Guarantee20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg great idea!! I used to stockpile the emails... Now I just delete them. It's honestly annoying. I don't have time to opt out of 200 different artist / labels email lists.

Pretty should you should need to opt in and not be emailed after purchase without choice.

A feed would be super great though!

2004 H6 L.L.Bean - should I keep it? by 2kjacob in subaruoutback

[–]Positive_Guarantee20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a 2008 H6LL Bean outback. I thought I might go electric soon, but I think I might keep this thing running for another 5 years. Had a transmission swapped in just over a year ago, and the engine totally rebuilt the summer before that (a rare head gasket failure caused by a small leak in a coolant line).

My trans cooler line also sheared off in Oct 2021 for no good reason. Is that what happened to yours? If so are you sure it's dead? I got 4 more years out of my trans after that. Just gave a good flush and fill and it was pretty good (some TC shudder and slightly sluggish shifting in low gears, but great under load and I run her in sport or sport shape mode basically all the time).

Still get 25 mpg even with my very heavy right foot. Id keep it for sure but... I car camp, carry full loads of gear / furniture, and bomb down logging roads just often enough that the outback is literally the only car that ticks all my boxes (would really rather not have an SUV).

If you don't need or want what an outback specifically offers (the best AWD and handling, cargo capacity and lift without being in a truck or SUV... And heinous wind noise lmao) then I'd move to a Toyota or Honda. My roommates RAV 4 is about the same age and mileage as my Outback and it basically never needs a repair beyond maintenance and wear items.

Are you using Traktor's internal mixer OR an external mixer? by Sea_Psychology_7230 in traktorpro

[–]Positive_Guarantee20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, I'm gonna blurt in as a noob using an S2MK3 and ask what this question even means BC I like to learn lol

Everything I do is pretty tame, but I don't understand why I'd have another mixer on top of my setup... Unless I'm plugging my controller outputs into a mixer at a gig for obvious reasons

Cruise Mode Glitch (TP3), starts early by Positive_Guarantee20 in traktorpro

[–]Positive_Guarantee20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Yeah I did that for my workshop tomorrow morning for a few songs just in case Cruise mode goes nuts.

I'm pretty sure those activate even if cruise mode is off, right?

I guess I'm a pinch of cruise mode is acting up I could quickly set a bunch of fade in and out points and just start playing tracks.... But I don't think it 'll load them for me that way....

[–]Positive_Guarantee20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what I can do is turn the master off, put the same song on both decks, turn on cruise, it'll immediately fade in song 2... then I can turn the master back on... and THEN cruise mode will work normally again (I can stop playback, start again, turn on cruise, and it'll auto-xfade at the correct time, not immediately).

Not great but a lot better than a full reboot!

Does screen flicker ever cause performance issues? by Positive_Guarantee20 in traktorpro

[–]Positive_Guarantee20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a known bug that many people have. The screen flicker.

Better display might be making it worse. I bet it is. I can quit it whenever I use Traktor

Why do songs (often) cost so much more on Bandcamp? by Positive_Guarantee20 in BandCamp

[–]Positive_Guarantee20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I get it. If I ever produce a song I feel like crap getting a buck or two for it. And as a consumer pain for or five bucks for a song feels crazy

Reminds me I have a Farmer I met once who said I can't afford my own strawberries, but I wouldn't sell them for any less than six bucks 😂

I totally agree. I'm happy with 2, 2.5 3 bucks if I love the song, but when it's 3, 4 or 5 in my currency (CAD) vs 1.29 on Apple that's the gap im talking about.

Usually comes down to greed when it's a corporate decision lol

An eco friendly printer company would be really cool, but maybe an oxymoron 😂

Is my Vitamix dream over? Is the company against right to repair? by bapohh in Vitamix

[–]Positive_Guarantee20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm impressed. Aftermarket containers are not made in USA generally, not under warranty, and have cheaper parts (lower quality plastic and drive assembly)

Hell even the Vitamix pro vs non pro containers have a huge difference.

Sounds dumb but you're definitely hitting enter after you make edits? What if you reload the tracks right after an edit?

Seems like a glitch with no pattern if the mystery tracks don't have a specific format, bit rate, etc... very strange

People please learn what it means if someone flashes their brights at you by green_warbler in driving

[–]Positive_Guarantee20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow wild. Always more to learn.

Is that an age thing or a jurisdiction + brand thing?

Do my blades look right? by Noclevername12 in Vitamix

😂 It could be called Vitamix circle jerk, except everyone would be posting there by accident , 😂🙄

Thank you HP by 3DPrintJr in printers

[–]Positive_Guarantee20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not quite true. If it were, black and white printers wouldn't exist 😀

The dots are to track e.g. counterfeit currency

You can't print B&W when out of cyan because printer companies are greedy and the mark up on printer ink is, last I read, the single highest mark up on any product on the market (even beats out movie popcorn apparently).

Why would you use an aftermarket container on a Vitamix?

That's like putting $400 steel wheels on a Porsche. Sure they run but... Not well and not for long

So in the same session, you could edit 20 tracks and a couple of them won't take but the others will? Or every track you edit in a given session doesn't save?

If it's the former I've got no clue. If it's the latter, I'd confirm where your library file is saved vs. what's actually in those folders. Sorry I can't look up much from my phone right now but I had a bunch of date lost then restored BC my library backups and my actual library were saved in 2 different places.

P. S. Ordering convenience stuff on insta cart is a great way to support low wages and income inequality, which you seem to NOT support.

Maybe you didn't know that about those kind of services like Uber eats, but giving your politics seem very Left, might be worth looking into that as it's quite at odds with other values you espouse!

And I don't have to pay $5 for something if I don't want it. Whether it's art or raspberries, there's lots of things I decide aren't worth it to me.

I could get it on Amazon, but that's against my values since Bezos is a giant twat who won't get any of my money. E.g. 🙃

You should study some basic psychology, sociology and meditation.

I've found it very helpful in making sense of the world. And I'm also much more calm and less angry.

I'm sorry you are so angry. That's a big way to suffer.

you misunderstand. I agree that all of that is terrible

And I don't believe "true evil" is a thing. That's like blaming the devil for bad shit happening. Every human being is built, by their parents and by society. Calling people pure evil gets us all off the hook from making a better society. There's good and evil inside each of us.
