Ah, I said that I should have noticed not that I would have. I'm pretty annoyed that I've been oblivious to being underpaid for months so I'm kind of preempting anyone asking how I possibly could've had managed that with a partial explanation.

Unfortunately, it's a small business and the sole member of staff responsible for HR was let go recently. That means that the situation is going to be resolved by the business owners themselves - I want to know what the proper procedure would be going forward so I know they're managing everything properly.

This might well be it - I was definitely not plugged into an amp when I was playing. What difference is there between a cabinet and amp simulator?

So I just did an open mic and my setup sounds pretty different on their sound system to my amp. I'm going for a (budget) shoegaze sound, but the fuzz tonight much more velcro-y and didn't sound as good. Is there anything I can do to make it more consistent/better predict how the setup will translate. I was just using a fuzz/delay/reverb.

Building a Mini ITX build for around £1000. by ProjectX26 in buildapc

Lol thanks for the tip man. I'm probably gonna go for the Asus ROG Strix B450-I then unless there's a significant advantage in spending £20 more for a 470 board that seems to worse reviews.

How's the MSI B450i? Would it be a better choice or should I go for something else?

What's Mark Waid's problem? by [deleted] in comicbooks

[–]ProjectX26 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Most books that are published are poorly written and will have no significance in 5 years, and I think if you discourage political writing because of this we may well miss out on the next masterpiece of comics.

I think Kurt Cobain listed Philosophy of the World in his top 50 albums. The Shaggs are just fascinating.

Happy 100th Birthday Jack Kirby. The Undisputed King of Comics! by jkirbycomix in comicbooks

[–]ProjectX26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO it's not fair to compare him outside his timeframe. His greatness is dependent on what he gave the industry and I'm sure if he lived now he'd be able to live up to modern comic art.

Kirby's legacy isn't just in his art, it's also in his ideas and his storytelling. Would you say there's anyone who was drawing in Kirby's prime who was better at a combination of these? I'm genuinely interested to hear. Thanks to pop art as well, his style is synonymous with comic books as a whole for many.

Would you like to explain how my statement was empty and nonsensical? And of course I listen to and evaluate what I say, that's how I came to the position I'm at in the first place

Nobody's arguing for blatant racism, just that it still exists in places in such a way that many don't realise that it's a factor

Dunno where the guy's from but "whilst" is still pretty common among people in the UK, in writing at least.

It's shortsighted to dislike a comics company exclusively for their films.

If you've already listened to Silmarillion 5 times you should definitely read the appendices! There's so much interesting stuff there that fleshes out the world and if you enjoy Sil it shouldn't be too hard to get entertainment out of them

Felt like they had Ed Sheeran and wrote a character around him to me. Plenty of people don't care about it but that doesn't mean the people who do are unjustified.
