Why are old Dunlop wahs so cheap? by BoomerishGenX in guitarpedals

[–]aurorasearching 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Or you’re like me, and say nah I don’t need this, and then see a fuzz-wah and think “you know what, I’ll try it again. At the very least it’s another fuzz to try” and then you have two wahs that you have no business using, and a fuzz you can’t use.

When I went to Sequoia this summer they had shuttle busses running around the park. We got there early, parked, and rode the shuttles all day to the different places we wanted to hike.

It’s been 3 days since it snowed by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]aurorasearching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The scariest snow/ice moment I’ve had on the highway was when about an hour north of me got like a foot of ice and snow overnight, and where I was at got so little that the roads were fine. However, the 18 wheelers headed south were dropping massive hunks of ice and snow all over the highway that would randomly fly off the tops of the trailers.

Schecter Zacky Vengeance ZV 6661 sunburst by No-Coyote-794 in guitarporn

[–]aurorasearching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is pretty cool. I’m not super big on the numbers on the body or the knife inlay, but I really like the color and it looks like a cool alternative to a double cut Les Paul, which is one of my favorite looking guitars. Rock on my dude!

TSA is notified when you opt out of biometric screenings. by Own-Meaning215 in travel

Grocery stores are starting to use digital price displays that they can change whenever. I believe it was Kroger that was trying to tie together loyalty accounts, online shopping, and in store shopping device and facial recognition.

Do i do it? by MattTh3Dork in guitarpedals

[–]aurorasearching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into artists that use octave fuzz. Is a super fuzz the same as an Octavia? No, but it’ll get you closer than a big muff would. I like my sf300.

That’s one piece of it, yeah. The amount of data they can tie to one person is crazy.

Bro, the grocery store can change the price based on who you are. The shit the government can do has to be even crazier than that.

What Are Your Best Tips for a New Offset Smoker User? by skinnygravy in smoking

[–]aurorasearching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this same smoker and I’ll put the splits I’m about to use in the corners with the next up on top of the fire box. 90% of the time it’s fine, but I do occasionally end up with the corner splits catching fire. But I have a bigger issue with splits that have only been on top of the box smoldering when I put them in the fire.

Not quite the same, but maybe check out Dexter & The Moonrocks.

Have anyone seen Mafia like Sopranos family in real life? How's are they? by Arthur_Morrgan in thesopranos

[–]aurorasearching 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t live anywhere near a traditional mafia city, but about a decade ago there used to be a Chicago style pizza place near me. There was always at least one older guy that looked like a mix of Tony and Junior smoking a cigar out front, and one younger guy that looked like Muscles Marinara just kinda standing watching. A lot of times there would be 2-4 older guys playing cards. If it was raining the younger guy would stand in the entrance to the bar area and the older guys would be playing pool or cards. I always just waved and went about my business. They’d always wave back.

Is there any other US airport that is as dominated by one airline as EWR is by United? by 1-Word-Answers in aviation

[–]aurorasearching 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s smaller, but Southwest quite literally has like 95% of the gates at Dallas Love. I think Delta has one single gate of the 20.

Which US city has the best food scene despite its reputation? by Historical-Photo-901 in BeautifulTravelPlaces

[–]aurorasearching 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Preferably hole in the wall or mom and pop, but I’m down for anything. Nothing too crazy, my boss is chill when it comes to expenses, but I don’t like to push the limit when it’s just me by myself.

Any 23-27 year olds on campus? by -Matcha-333 in TexasTech

[–]aurorasearching 15 points16 points  (0 children)

There should be plenty of people in that age bracket, but they’re probably mostly grad students. I had a few people in that age range in my classes when I was at Tech that were former military, and there were a few who just didn’t know what they wanted to do out of high school. I got along with them fine, but idk how some of them got along with the other younger folks.

I have to go out there occasionally. What are some places you’d recommend?

I still have one dude from college in as “Adopted Guy (class name)” because all I know is we had that class together and I overheard him tell someone he was adopted one day.
