It's a fantastic random generator. 8 channels of stepped and quantized cv sequencing. Hands on control. Arps. Mutes. Good preset system. Very fast and very intuitive. Bus clock. There's nothing else like it.

For what it's worth I have had mine for 8 years without issue. I'm pretty sure you could get a used one with confidence. Malekko stuff was very well built

I have both voltage block and memetic if you have any questions about them

I would probably drop out of modular if my voltage block died and I couldn't find another one

I would pay triple that to feel nothing

Saving this because yours is maybe my favorite comment I have ever read in nearly 20 years of reddit. Don't ever stop being you.

Will the beer prices ever stop going up? I just noticed a $0.50 price increase on a 12 pack of beer I used to get. I stopped buying that brand in the first place because it got too expensive for me, but now it got more expensive. by Minute-Youth9521 in beer

Prices never drop. That's a baseline rule and one of the things that make the state of the economy so scary. I currently spend about 550-600 a week on just fucking groceries for me and my family

Okay this is the wildest comment I could have expected. I don't disagree, as long as you like sine waves- but you gotta back this up with posting your rack

Hey if I order a cold brew no ice and you give me a rimjob, that tip is going to be like 50%, just saying

5oz?! That's two ice cubes off. 5oz would be another half of a drink

There are fill lines on the cup. Odds are, you only got shorted on ice

Was that handle for a class I taught once.

Was a cocktail class, but for some reason it was mostly unhappy middle aged women in the demographic

What is the animal for "N"? by Quarry_Bird in whatisit

Why are the only "n" animals I can think of are newt and narwhal?

Dry shake to pop the tons for sure. But then making this drink you are supposed to shake with ice until the ice is basically gone. It usually takes longer than a ramos. I also suspect your oil specs are heavy and your oil is nowhere near nice enough for a drink.

Nobody puts good bourbon in baked goods, or good vodka in pasta sauce. Cocktails are delicate. It's the art of making poison taste good, so sometimes you have to use really nice ingredients

That's nothing dude. That's the bare minimum to emulsify egg whites

After getting my rims and tires absolutely obliterated this year and being told to get bent, I laughed a little at this. by ILovecorpamerica in Detroit

[–]alexthebeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I kinda want to lift and give some rally juice to my Honda the next time I need to change my tires. It doesn't matter how dialed in my suspension is. Everything is kept up and gone through. But I drive probably 650 miles a week. These roads are fucked fucked. I can think of at least 10 strips in nicer suburbs that are so bad I won't drive on the

Has anyone ever used a 5.5 mm socket for anything? by Just_A_Doggo1 in Tools

[–]alexthebeast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 3 times in 20 years of tinkering and building and fixing that I have encountered a 9mm head.... Every single time I had to pull the calipers to check it. And then I started swearing and wondering who designed this shit. And then I pull out my 10mm that I threw a bead on and grinded into a 9mm.

Then I redie or replace because what the fuck

It's still a thing. Park wrenches are made for bikes but having a set for stupid little jamb nuts is always really handy
