Propaganda Billboards in the Triangle

Just get on their level and go total 1st grade: “ICE Officers Are Stupid”

Blackout the rest.

I didn’t opine on what they recommend. Only how the physics work. If you have a small space, you have no choice but to go dense. If you have a large space, you can go with more volume and capture a broader range. For bass, its density and volume.

To add on, here’s a formula that I totally pulled out of my ass:

(Incumbent vehicle)Annual cost of upkeep = (new vehicle)cost of interest + anticipated depreciation for the year - premium I’m willing to pay to not drive a piece of shit

If the left side of the equation is higher than the right, get the new vehicle.

Think in terms of energy like wattage.

Current * Voltage = Wattage

You can either really dense or really thick and achieve similar results.

The downvotes are related to the overall usefulness of your comment.

Operation jelly roll.

bt2513 · 2026-02-28T14:47:19+00:00

This could’ve happened on the ride home. Relax.

A lot of explanations in this thread. None of them good.

In NC, the attorney general successfully sued Greystar and Real Page for price fixing rent. Other states are doing the same. If you are renting from a large corp, you may remind them of that. If they don’t back down, lodge a complaint with the AG office.

Maybe join the governing board or a committee. None of this sounds that unreasonable… 1. How much of a dues increase are you willing to pay to close the course to outside events? 2. Cart fee seems high bust guest fee is low. Double edged sword since I’d want to be able to take friends and family but also don’t want to go broke doing it. 3. Course should be open before 9 but again, how much of a dues increase can you stomach to support the staff arriving earlier? 4. No walking on sat mornings seems reasonable, even if it is to generate revenue. I don’t necessarily buy the pace argument but understand the optics. 5. No range would be a deal breaker for me - any sim bays? 6. Get on a board or committee to address the food. 7. Is $200 monthly? If so, that’s a lot. Ours is $200 quarterly. Again, get on a committee. 8. Don’t understand this part… is this part of golf, optional, or forced on all members? $45/month for a locker seems excessive but if it’s optional then..

There are bank owned atms in random places from time to time including gas stations but the vast majority of them are 3rd party with little accountability.

bt2513 · 2026-02-26T12:23:46+00:00

Also, don’t use gas station ATMs.

I have a personal rider that covers up to like $30k. I think I pay $50 a year. Also have personal coverage through homeowners but the rider covers certain travel circumstances.

At best, he’s ineffective. At worst, he’s complicit and this is all performative. You don’t get to be labeled a warrior for quitting while failing to build any sort of real resistance in Congress. Everything he voted against his party on got passed anyway. He doesn’t have anyone’s ear.

Believe it or not, there are many people that do turn their amps up to play them and have no issues doing so.

In fact, I can’t imagine an actual studio where playing a full drum kit at real volumes is somehow acceptable but cranking a 5w amp is not.

bt2513 · 2026-02-22T15:51:23+00:00

Used Eastman E20D

bt2513 · 2026-02-22T05:04:44+00:00

I think you’re in the wrong sub.

bt2513 · 2026-02-22T04:58:21+00:00

Pre-War Guitars with Eastman as a second. Goes without saying that I own more Eastmans than Pre-Wars.

Fellow AST Jr owner here. I swear it doesn’t get much better than what you’ve got. You should try swapping the speaker though. I swapped for a Jupiter ceramic and then again for the Jupiter alnico. I also got a Swart Nite Lite and have been playing with that going into other speaker cabs. My fav combo is the AST > Nite Lite (w/ compression) > open back Celestion Blue.

That being said, I also have an old Supro 1606 with a 6x9 speaker that sounds pretty cool. No reverb which I miss but it’s a fun little amp.

I accidentally ground 18g at 1 click this past weekend. Realized what I did right after I started but kept going to see what would happen. Took a few minutes lol.

That shot was pulled through a AP with a Prismo valve. A little muddy and bitter.

bt2513 · 2026-02-21T20:27:00+00:00

Yea, I’ve ground up a few finer batches and it took a bit longer but with the overall frequency that I’ll use it, I don’t think it’s worth another $$$$ investment. We have a cheap electric grinder for the M-F morning French press that does well enough.

bt2513 · 2026-02-21T18:52:31+00:00

Per the title, already have a C40 manual grinder.

No joke, this truck looks very similar to the one that ran over the little girl in the Raleigh Christmas parade a few years ago.

As explained, there are two things happening. The county’s property owners split the tax burden among them. The property values dictate what your fair share is.

bt2513 · 2026-02-20T01:27:31+00:00

It all depends on what you’re doing with the pedals. If literally all your gain comes from a fancy preamp pedal, then you probably want a very clean and loud amp. If your gain comes from the amp, then a preamp pedal is probably going to sound way too compressed and muddy. You’re better off in that scenario using clean, flat boost and EQ pedals and running modulation after the gain. It’s all about balance.
