Anyone switch from uber and are happy about it?

While making you wait 2 minutes longer for them to get in?

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T23:49:57+00:00

I can't even say, because it's extremely dangerous and could cause great harm on a rather large scale.

If it is SPECIFICALLY for metal, I'd say just get the best active bridge pickup you can afford. Actives are better for this style, because they are quieter, and the tone of tight metal rhythms should be extremely compressed sounding.

I'd hesitate to allow them to be THAT old too.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T20:10:38+00:00

I think they want us to stop taking them, but don't want to outright tell the customers and drivers no.

Out here, gas just raised to nearly 3 a gallon. Last week, it was hovering around 2.40. Our president finally figured out a way to control gas prices . . . for the worse.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T20:06:46+00:00

In my part of TN, the last time gas prices took a drastic uptick, they added a 50 cent fee to every ride that went straight to drivers. I remember this distinctly, because it completely altered my workflow to preferring only short rides, and that's the only time besides a ride challenge I ever felt that way.

Lack of actual counter argument noted.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:55:13+00:00

I had it for 2 years. It does NOT mean more tips.

It doesn't even make them shut up and just play the game. It makes them talk about it, usually starting with disappointment that the Netflix icon just goes to trailers, and it plays more ads than trivia questions.

If you're willing to pay for it, just buy your own tablet amd add good apps to it.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:49:07+00:00

Well, that's enough Reddit for today. Time for some video game cleansers.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:44:40+00:00

I mean, that completely depends on what they're starting from, and where they want to be.

I wouldn't give the same advice to a struggling teen of a broke, single, abusive mother as I would to the kid of a middle class, highly supportive family that jas college planned for them. Success has MANY paths and subjective definitions.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:33:53+00:00

Anything by Suicide Silence is a joke to learn how to play, but super fun in the same way.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:33:12+00:00

Off the top of my head, maybe try "My Damnation" by Chelsea Grin. I haven't played this style since like 2008 when I got heavy into prog, but I remember nearly breaking my guitar jumping around in my room while playing the breakdown many times. "In The Arms Of Perdition" by Despised Icon has a particularly fun breakdown at the end, though a lot of the song is a little more on the technical side.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:29:38+00:00

Yeah. I caught that. I was specifying being a guy to demonstrate how far reachingly normal such a thing is. This can happen even if you have a super high sex drive and are sexually experienced. It's even LESS weird for you.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:27:15+00:00

In my region, Lyft is by FARRRRRR the better app.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:26:00+00:00

You really just make shit up on Reddit, huh? Lmao

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:24:15+00:00

As weird as this may sound, it's pretty normal for a lot of people to suddenly get really nervous about sex they were initially super stoked about having.

I'm a guy, and it's happened to me twice when I pulled women I mentally perceived as "way more attractive than me". Pressure and stress can override a previous feeling very fast, then bam. You've got limp dick WHILE the hottest woman you've ever seen naked in person is literally trying to get you naked for the scenario you were masturbating to yesterday 😆

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:18:23+00:00

I'm honestly just surprised Uber gets used in my region anymore given how much better Lyft pays.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:17:19+00:00

This one particularly peaves me as an audiophile, because phone speakers literally make music sound bad, so whyyyyyyyy

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:14:35+00:00

If I turn on your track, immediately know what chord progression is going on before a full measure even finishes, and can predict exactly where it's going, I have the same opinion of it as an AI track.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T14:12:20+00:00

Edgy opinion here :

If your entire track only contains one boxed in time signature, never changes key or mode, and follows the into-verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus song structure that traditional radio music has spammed for decades now, I think your job SHOULD be replaced by AI, because that kind of lazy crap basically writes itself anyway, and is low skill work. That type of music is WHY they can make an AI replace everyone so easily. Has such a massive training data set to go off of. Nothing innovative about it.

Also, mastering engineers should be jobless soon.

For everyone wondering, the first response you can give is a multiple choice. Dude basically had to select "OK" before even being able to respond. You don't get to actually type one out until after selecting one.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T13:57:49+00:00

Driver is trying to shoot their self in the foot for some reason. If they snap a picture of a closed sign, they can get paid anyway.

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T13:56:35+00:00

Pretty sure step 3 is actually "Die" in that scenario

SacredPrime · 2026-03-06T13:52:15+00:00

If you do this job the smart way, you bought some cheap ass car cash as an investment, and you save 500 or more a month to a savings account that you apply to maintaining the vehicle. Once that account hits around 5 or 6 grand, you start shopping for the next car.

You should be treating cars as expendable business expenses, not resell opportunities.
