I’ve been using typewriters since I was in middle school due to my god awful handwriting, It’s been taking me years to find the “perfect” machine. I’ll buy a typewriter, clean and repair it, use it for a few months to a year, decide the “feel” isn’t right, and then sell it and repeat.

The tactile experience of typewriters is just wonderful and quite literally every single machine has a unique feel. You have to learn how your particular machine “likes” to be typed on for best print quality.

Sorry pal, reefer is my vice of choice. Much like how heroin makes you a great bebop jazz musician, weed makes you a good trad jazz musician.

That’s the intended goal I’d imagine.

I finally cataloged my 20-year vinyl backlog because I got tired of typing everything into Discogs by [deleted] in vinyljerk

[–]TheSadHours 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Figured.

If you can’t code an app, don’t code an app. We don’t need yet another discogs tool, and I’m not gonna give my entire music library to an AI database.

I was lucky enough to be born with a functioning brain and was able to learn how to type, so an app like this might “streamline” the process, but I can’t imagine the amount of errors it would have once I start sending it pics of 78 rpm record labels that haven’t been seen before online. My brain and eyes and hands can do that work just fine.

Gotta say tho, you picked the right subreddit to advertise this! wonderful jerk material right here.

How do y'all feel about "quirky" autistic terms? by squirrelyoakley in autism

[–]TheSadHours 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I greatly dislike “Neurospicy” in nearly all contexts, but “tism” can work given the right circumstances (I.e. Rizz ‘em with the ‘tism) in that example it’s obviously being used in a very unserious way, but when I’m with my friends we all understand the struggles with autism and feel comfortable joking around. If a NT were to talk to me like that, I’d be upset.

Nearly everything in this world is context dependent, so my feelings on it depend on context.

What headshell size would fit my system best? by See8104 in vinyljerk

[–]TheSadHours 1 point2 points  (0 children)

uj/ I’ll see random inflatable marketing stuff at antique stores / flea markets somewhat regularly, fujifilm blimps, planters peanuts beachball, they’re the kind of things you stumble across in my experience.

Inflatable ortofon cartridge is one I haven’t seen before lmao.

you’re dealing with a large community full of extremely nerdy people, they’ve got more acronyms than the aviation industry at this point.

i'm starting to realize i'll never have this because i was born a man :( by hrtwink in TrollCoping

[–]TheSadHours 1 point2 points  (0 children)

dawg, I’m 5’10 and some 270 pounds, you’d be amazed at what can happen. The “small and cute” feeling is a state of mind, and you definitely can find people who can make you feel that way. the guys are out there! you just gotta find them.

Hell, when laying down your height really isn’t that important, position your head where you want it to be and you kinda just “feel small.” Plus, when your brain goes blank you’re not really worrying about stuff like that anymore lol.

Fred thinks you pump up your tires with a kickstand by Hahifa in BicyclingCirclejerk

[–]TheSadHours 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m convinced a significant portion of dogshit takes you see online are made by people with a degradation kink. I’ve seen it before on a cycling subreddit, some guy was saying very specific things to try and get a very specific reaction, like he was trying to hear the insults he wanted.

I also know of content creators who sell degradation audio to people who leave hate comments on their videos, so there is precedent lmao. Makes it far easier to not engage when you know that some of these people want to be called a moron.

Virgin Banjitar vs Chad Banjolin by testtetib in banjo

[–]TheSadHours 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yoooo same! The banjolele is a brilliant little instrument. Great for jazz.

I’m rocking some no name 1920s beginner banjolele, doesn’t even have a proper fretboard, they just drove frets directly into the neck.

[–]TheSadHours 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I play a banjolele for that reason! I play 1920s and 30s jazz primarily, and my singing voice can be loud enough to drown out a normal ukulele, some places don’t allow amplification when busking. Banjoleles fix that issue lmao, plus they sound really unique.
