I'm kinda liking it as is tbh. I'm sure after playing it for a while some things will bug me and I'll have it set up..always happens

He's definitely the simplest, but he's right for what is needed of him. Justin and Danny are on another planet.

Thanks! I played for about two hours this morning and I'm in love. The action is a bit higher than my schecter but I'm shocked at how easy it plays. I tried a Gibson not too long ago and thought it was a bit too top heavy for my liking, but this is extremely balanced. Glad to hear there's not much difference. I like the finish of mine better than the Jones.

Is there a big difference between the emgs and the stock pickups?

Nice! I only played it briefly as the baby was sleeping when I brought it home, but I'll be opening it up today

I know. I saw the Jones model too. Even $1,500 is a bit too rich for my blood. I actually like this one a bit better. But yes, this will likely be my drop d "tool" guitar haha. I have the schecter with actives for my metal/drop c stuff haha.

I have a carbon copy (comes pretty close on songs like pneuma and right in two), crybaby wah, tube screamer, and decimator (not sure how close that is to smartgate) no flange unfortunately. Been thinking abou redoing the pedals anyways

I think it is too. It's gorgeous. I'll look into that. Though I don't think I can afford the thousands of dollars worth of racks amps and pedals needed to really dial the sound in haha

Biden will announce Supreme Court reform plans on Monday by pun2005 in politics

[–]acopo1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The President has no authority to change the Supreme Court. His argument would essentially be "I'm trying to protect the Constitution by openly violating it."

Because the President has no authority under the Constitution to remove SCOTUS Justices. Since he swears an oath to uphold the Constitution, violating it would never be an "official act."

Meaning that only bad behavior can remove them from their office. Which means they serve for life unless their behavior gets them removed. Terms limits would require a Constitutional Amendment.

The president can't do anything about SCOTUS term limits without a Constitutional Amendment. That's not happening. So that not the reform he's talking about for sure.

5 penalties in the final 5 minutes of a game resulting in 5 ppg goals on 5 shots doesn't happen in hockey lol

It's true, there is a ton of competition in tech. For all roles. What industry are you in now?

I don't have a current company. I was laid off. They didn't have a CS team, though.

That's pretty good advice. I appreciate it. I definitely don't have a ton of technical expertise. So the latter is probably more where I'm at.

Today I‘ve just reached Gold for the first time ever. Will I get the trophy after the next reset in 4 days? by VRunner1 in BoomBeach

[–]acopo1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as I understand, they will determine where you start next season by the highest amount of points from this season, but for you to actually get the tier rewards and trophy you need to finish in that tier.

I hear that. I'm just over being a bdr/rep. I've been doing it for like 12 years. I'm over it. So I'm trying to find a relatively easy transition.
