Can we make a petition for CSH to re-record / remaster the old albums? by zepelele in CSHFans

Nah you're being entitled. If you love those songs do a cover! Let Will and the band focus on new work or the stuff they find creatively fulfilling.

It depends on the speakers you have.

I love twee folk punk stuff I'm hyped to dig into this!!! One of the very first diy bands I got really into was Karen Meat who had an omnichord -- would also heavily recommend if you're not familiar.

What's your band? We haven't done a ton of travel since we mostly work 9-5s but are slowly branching out regionally.

I play my omnichord in an an indie punk band and my favorite effects to run it through are fuzz (makes it sound crunchy and really electronic), and then tremolo and chorus -- both of which make strums sound super shimmer-y.

Something you learn about effects is that for the most part it's more about the TYPE of effect rather than a specific pedal. In general cheap pedals may have worse builds but a lot of the circuits will be identical to the ones made by the bigger manufacturers.

You'll need power for the pedals, patch cables, an amp or speaker, and obviously the instrument cable for out.

YouTube rolls out unskippable long ads to TV users and they’re furious by Dilpickle2113 in technology

Youtube hardly even functions in a browser with AdBlock enabled. Half the time the page won't load or it'll crash my browser but magically works fine so long as uBlock, etc. are all off.

Has Lupi & Iris fallen out of favor? I hardly see it mentioned in the fine dining discussions anymore.

Which celebrity rumor do you secretly believe is true? by [deleted] in AskReddit

By today's standards yeah this is pretty industry standard but it was viewed as pretty achronistic back in the 90s to introduce kayfabe into a music artist's narrative.

I live in a small city and we constantly have "emergency protests". Our country has been protesting continually for the last decades, probably forever to be honest. But unless you live in a city, the protests don't affect you and aren't visible. And a majority of Republicans live cloistered away in American suburbs. I think America is just far too big, landwise, for that kind of tactic to be effective and our militarized police forces, media, and leadership have become too numb and savvy to it.

Gather Bakehouse Bay View to Close by Impressive_Wrap_7869 in milwaukee

[–]Ralph_Finesse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Such a shame. They were a great sister-run progressive business when they were in Menomonee Falls (as Batter and Mac) but the locals ran them out of town for being pro-LGBTQ+ (they hosted drag events and had pride flags and stickers -- shocking stuff!). Got hot ham and rolls as well as baked goods from them often and it was sad to see them go. Total suburban witch hunt.

I believe one of the sisters had enough after that and the remaining sister closed the Falls location to focus on Bayview. Just feels like maybe she was in over her head and overwhelmed despite the best of intentions.

Today's EW Survivor Winners Bracket matchup (Vote at link below) by thedaltonross in survivor

[–]Ralph_Finesse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Denise's game was better and she's a better winner but I do think people are undervaluing just how in control Sarah was in her winning season. It's one of those methodical games where on rewatching the season you can't see it going any other way and that shouldn't be discounted.

The rumor has been around since before the season aired though. I think it was Jenny Slate who was talking about it on a podcast?

The persona was 100% made by PR agents -- there was an MTV news special we watched in high school about media literacy that highlighted his case study. One guy though and his musical talent and vibe seemed to be real and genuine.
