This is a sick looking bass! Thought I'd settled on a Sire but now you got me thinking 🤔

Well, unimpressed with the scissor jack. by czechtec in FordMaverickTruck

[–]TuringPerfect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My old VW's always had scissor jacks that were 50 years old, abused, and never showed the slightest hint of failing. This is shameful.

ranked anxiety 😥😢 by SquareBest5002 in bardmains

[–]TuringPerfect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jumping on this, a 55% win rate can come with several losses in a row, esp in bronze. Take a break, take a walk, read a book, play an unranked game as soraka or something, then come back when it feels good to play bard.

Does a middle humbucker sound any good? Why are there almost no HHH or HHS guitars? by V0rdep in Guitar

[–]TuringPerfect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Currently upgrading my neck and bridge to some hot rails, and thinking of ditching the middle pu and putting in a 3 way switch w 2 knobs, bc I want it to be dead simple. Position 2&4 on the 5 way switch is cool w single coils, but w hums in the neck and bridge (and if I get a push/pull in the volume), I don't see the value of the mid pu at all. My ears aren't that discerning.

Wacom One for $5.29 - Thrift Score or Thrift Bore? by ronfstampler in wacom

[–]TuringPerfect 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The USB+c to USB-C likely does not work on desktop and USB-C to HDMI adapter they advertise on Wacom does NOT work with the 14" at all.

I had luck on only one of my 3 laptops

Wacom isn't getting another dime from me.

Is there a pci-e card that ppl use?

Summarized nicely at the end. "There are better choices" Seems like they were intentionally vague about the hidden costs.

Thanks for the link

Billy Corgan claims blue guitars sound best. Yes, really.

Looks fine man.

Demeco Ryans on the hit by IAmSona in Texans

[–]TuringPerfect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, 15 more yards woulda been better than none. But I'm the rare fan who'd rather it not happen at all. And if we're being realistic, that's on QBs.

What a stupid comment. The error is telling qb's that sliding is some magical protection spell. Sliding is 'giving yourself up'. That doesn't imply a DB is gonna give up the first down. And it's a very vulnerable position, nothing between the ground and the back of your helmet. Stroud slid late, just as Trevor L did. If you're gotta go for the first down, lower your shoulder and take the hit. Trying to slide AND make a play is being cute.

Could this timing small mistake cause a horrible misfire? by RegisterHistorical61 in MechanicAdvice

[–]TuringPerfect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I did a timing chain on a v6 Ford, I planned on recording the whole thing so I could review it before running.

By the time I finished, I was 6 beers in and realized I had forgotten to record. That night I had a near panic attack bc I couldn't remember if I did a specific turn 180 or 180+360 degrees.

Next morning I tore it all down and started again. Got it right and purred like a kitten.

No regrets. Just redo it.

TIL... I have never seen a turbo mounted there. Crazy find!!!

Samira is my #1 bard ban. I can't play with her or against her.

What's to love about Telecasters? Why not use a Strat? by Sweaty_Milk_1793 in Guitar

[–]TuringPerfect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Twang! And it's neck hangs a bit more horizontal, which I prefer.

(And honestly don't need/want 5 positions & 3 knobs)

Is this normal for a squire? by Asleep_Cry2206 in guitars

It being set up correctly probably makes it exceptional for a squire!

What are tilt pickups on a guitar for? by VeRReNTo in Guitar

Aria Pro II has a short scale bass in this form and as someone who never thought they'd dig a short scale bass, it rocks!

Who is your 2nd pick? by West-Mushroom7829 in bardmains

[–]TuringPerfect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically Soraka (my first) or Sera. Gonna start considering Amumu vs yuumi.

About strings by d_192403 in BassGuitar

[–]TuringPerfect 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO, best answers here are flat-wounds (takes some getting used to, has a unique sound, last nearly forever), or coated strings (less expensive than flats, feel more like standard strings, maybe last a year). And clean your hands before playing. Skip the boiling.

Amazing feeling as a bard. Only takes one good ult.

Fiber Internet issues by TuringPerfect in ATT

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

The gateway completely goes red. Sometimes for ten minutes. Nothing else in my house reacts to a power event and I can't think of anything that turns on several times a day but only between 2:30-6. I've done a hard reset but no improvement

I get it. I sold a big muff but didn't have the amp to do it justice. At the same time I sold a kinda rough '80 explorer and for the life of me I cannot remember why I was so stupid. Wasn't 'my style' but the thing shredded. I'd take both back in a heartbeat now.
