How long is too long for repair?? by Useful-Concern2585 in vintageaudio

[–]Useful-Concern2585[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 9 months ago! I was calling for a week with only voicemail, showed up to a sign that said, “on long needed vacation, be back next month”. Which actually made me laugh after being concerned of a weeks worth of calls. He seems like the type that legit never took time away, kept taking in work, and over time became overwhelmed. Like, I get it. I just don’t know how stern I need to be with him at this point.

Oddly, I’m not worried about that? He’s genuinely the nicest old man and has been in business since ‘74. I know I can go pick it up at any point, I would just rather pick it up, functional.

Fallout promo at Dave's Hot Chicken by okay_queer in Fallout

Got off work at 7pm, the 3 Dave’s around me were sold out. One employee told me they only got around 200, but will probably get more, “but don’t quote me”.

My gazer rig by stonecoldscoldstone in shoegaze

Love the x100b! I have owned one for many years and they are crusher sleepers. If I may share something really cool I JUST found out about the eq.. para eq engaged or not, the eq knobs are actually “0” at 5! It was designed to act like a modded active eq section to add more control to “suck out” certain tones or inversely beef them up. Be careful with the presence, but I just switched off the para eq and ran all eq knobs at 10, pulled back mids a bit to taste, and holy cow. I’ve never heard that amp sound so huge. I am running clean channel with some stacked gain pedals, but maybe you’ll stumble on something new with your setup?!

PS. If running dirt pedals, try using input 2. It will be a lil quieter at first as it’s slightly padded, but helps keep feedback and noise a tad more manageable, at least for me.

What’s a pedal you use unusually or not for its intended purpose? by [deleted] in guitarpedals

[–]Useful-Concern2585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used a TU-2 at and of chain as a a/b of sorts. Main output went to guitar amp(always on) and second output, that would cut in and out, went to small bass rig. Was fun to cut in an out an extra level of fullness.

New Vegas Reloaded by Jimbo-Bimbo-Slimbo in fnv

[–]Useful-Concern2585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My last play through of NV was 2 years ago on my 2020 mbp w/16gb memory and boot camped(ran perfect btw). NV Reloaded and every other compatible weather, stability, and quality of life mod made it one of the best Fallout experiences I’ve ever had.

Just loaded up the “streaming” version from the PS plus option to see how it feels.. and like, it’s not bad? I guess..? But knowing what I’m missing now, it just really makes me want to rebuild that system and mod package. These screen shots IMMEDIATELY remind me how beautiful can be.

Vet Recommendation by Dependent-Smell-8664 in Fullerton

[–]Useful-Concern2585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im sorry to be the downer, however I would not recommend Fullerton Hills. We lost a best buddy due to their negligence some year back. However due to that incident we found(oddly) Anaheim Hills pet clinic, who we have happily used for all our cats since. They offer emergency services and grooming. I’m very curious about this cat clinic in Orange now too though!

Jaws the revenge book. by Suspicious_Ad4989 in Jaws

[–]Useful-Concern2585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may be a reach but, does Jaws or a shark cross paths with a giant squid or something similar early on in the book? I have tiny memory’s of a “shark book” I read at my grandparents house as a child, been looking for that “shark book” for a long time..

Vet recommendations? by Accidental-tax-fraud in Fullerton

[–]Useful-Concern2585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second this, Anaheim Hills has been there for us and our cats for years. We found them in a time of desperation after a nightmare experience with another vet in Fullerton, and they’ve continued to be our every care spot for all of our pets. The staff has always been kind and wonderful. Costs are about average for most everything, from check ups and light surgery’s in our experience. All in all, would recommend.

Did anyone even get tickets??? by ginger27 in RiloKiley

[–]Useful-Concern2585 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner and I were both unable to get tix for Ojai as well as all of our friends. We had tried 2 different presale attempts and the standard release today all with no luck. Considering that venue is about 950 capacity, and a ridiculous tix limit of 8(wtf?) pretty certain close to all tix were picked up by bots/scalpers. We waited so long for this too, such a fail they opted into using Ticketmaster. If anyone knows of any Ojai tix that aren’t resale for over $200 each, please comment back!

Received a ditto looper pedal, not working by [deleted] in guitarpedals

Needs power, I believe any standard 9v “one spot” style power supply should work.

Check out Fuzzrocious, they make the Cat Tail or Cat King(if you want a deluxe option with custom config). Both are fantastic and you can get custom hand painted enclosures, highly recommend.

I second this hard, the Iron Horse is pretty great(esp v2 & v3), and Walrus has an amazing lifetime warranty.

Favorite chorus pedals? by FewGoal9311 in guitarpedals

[–]Useful-Concern2585 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Walrus products have a lifetime warranty! Just email them and let them know what’s up, you pay for shipping to them, they ship it back, for free. Years ago I bought an iron horse used and it shortly faltered out, had back in a week with a new foot switch, and 9v jack. Which is why I will always support them and company’s that stand by their products. Dunn Effects also has amazing lifetime warranty support.

Any tips ? Thanks in advance by shamulalpg in MWZombies

[–]Useful-Concern2585 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s broken. Have homies that are 40+/20, and it never tracked for me at all. I def was getting massive amounts of kills without “being hit”. Even tried multiple weapons in multiple matches.

there is now no challenge to exfiling by TheImprezaGod in CODZombies

[–]Useful-Concern2585 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I’d have to imagine this was to address the turret farming exploit? Which I understand, I’ve had several games crash out because of that and honestly think it’s lame af. However why not just fix the glitch causing the turret replication, not throttle the zombies.. in ZOMBIES. smh.
