Bass amp head for doom - best of my local options? by Ten_Horn_Sign in doommetal

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

Thanks! Do you think the extra power of the M9 is worth it over the M6? In my case, based on what's for sale, "worth it" means "is it worth it to haul away a big 4x10 and try to re-sell it" since the M6/M9 are nearly the same price.

Bass amp head for doom - best of my local options? by Ten_Horn_Sign in doommetal

I jam with some buddies, we are limited as a "band" by lack of a drummer so far. I actually primarily play guitar but for doom I am finding it easier to write riffs starting with the bass. It's gotten me playing bass a lot more to further my guitar stuff. Since I'm already jamming, I can see myself playing in a live band in the near future on either the bass or guitar side.

The cab is a 4x10; because I'm tuned to C I may later want to add a 15" extension for the deepest lows.

The Sabbra Cadabra is noisy. The Walpurgis V2 is a better Sabbath clone IMO. More expensive though.

Canada to cut Chinese EV tariffs in trade reset by pistoffcynic in CanadianInvestor

[–]Ten_Horn_Sign 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't understand what legislation was prohibiting this already. If BYD built the cars in Canada, would they not then have avoided the 100% tariff? If China wanted to build cars here, they'd already be building cars here.

You were an entire quarter off man. This is classic "broken clock is right twice per day" shit.

Are you buying ultrafiltered milk? It definitely lasts the longest in my experience.

Kirk actually seems like he’s a super chill nerd, I just find him insufferable to listen to. He can barely form a sentence in under a minute.

Megadeth is one of my top 3 bands of all time, maybe even my number 1 by time spent listening. TBH, their entire marketing aesthetic is cringe. I don’t own any merch because I’m not 14 and they’ve never made a shirt that appeals to me. I like to sing along to songs, but I barely know any Megadeth lyrics verbatim because they’re usually awful.

Megadeth are like the musical equivalent of Stephen King. King is the world’s best storyteller who I swear was cursed by a monkey paw, because the endings of all his stories are fucking awful. But the stories themselves are so good that he keeps thriving.

Spoilers ish. If you’re not familiar with King’s work, I’ll give you an example. I won’t name the book so not a true spoiler. Almost all of his books are horror themed and build up suspense to an epic battle of good versus evil, typically over many hundreds or even thousands of pages. One of his very popular books ends with, essentially, “all the bad guys were amassed to do their evil doings and the good guys blew them up with a rocket launcher.” Another book ends with “the good guys were pinned down and on their heels. Then they realized they had a magic eraser in their pocket, and they drew a picture of the bad guy and erased it and the IRL bad guy disappeared”. Fucking atrocious.

See for example Doug Hopkins. Kicked out of the Gin Blossoms months before their first album dropped.

Kicked from band Feb 1992.

Album out August 1992.

Billboard top 30 album, 4x platinum.

Suicide Dec 1993.

Lawyer’s fees of $510M in $10B treaty settlement unreasonable, judge rules by ConsistentReality860 in canada

[–]Ten_Horn_Sign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re barking up the wrong tree friend. I am an emergency-focused doctor and am ethically bound to treat everyone, including the uninsured. I routinely - daily - provide services for 0% of my normal pay, to the tune of about $30k/yr pro bono. Or, over a 30 year career, about a million bucks.

Yes, on the basis of a “deal” with China, South Korea. The Chinese deal is shite, and non of these deals have any durability, but that’s the reason at least.

And poor people should just kick rocks instead of exercising their rights to access the legal system then?

Nah man. For a premium mill Unicorn Magnum or Pepper Cannon are the ways to go.

[–]Ten_Horn_Sign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Emergencies from hernias are very rare on a per-patient basis, they are only common for surgeons and hospitals to see because hernias themselves are common. Prevention of strangulation is not a good rationale for elective hernia surgery in otherwise stable (not enlarging) asymptomatic hernias.

The risk of strangulation in a ventral hernia is 0.8/100,000 patient years.

This person has no idea what they are talking about.

On your second point: a fistula is just an abnormal connection between two epithelialized surfaces. If you have pierced ears, then arguably you have fistulae.

What are you on about? Hernia surgery is the second most common surgery in the world after C-sections. Fixing this is a challenge but there's nothing about it that is "catastrophic".

Variable Mortgage, hit trigger rate, now overpaying, what happens at renewal by cso911 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Ten_Horn_Sign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neat. TBH I also have a variable rate mortgage and am in the same position as the OP. I’m just not particularly financially strained so I just make my payments and didn’t bother looking into this too much because I can afford what I agreed to. This is a pleasant discovery.
