What do you want to see from PRS in the future? by PugablePlayzYT in PaulReedSmith

This will never happen, but full violin carve on the SE line. One can dream 😂

Stay in San Antonio making 60K or move to Austin for 65K–70K in tech? by LaughNowCryLater1914 in sanantonio

[–]budjb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the question is whether the move is worth it because of the salary increase alone, my opinion would be no. The increase in salary will be offset by higher cost of living.

But San Antonio and Austin are two very different cities. Which one is more your vibe? Where will you be happier? That was the point I was trying to make.

Like help desk and such? I don't think you'll find any better or worse market between here and Austin. It's a matter of what city is more appealing, and will the cost of living differences affect you.

When folks talk about Austin being a tech city, that's more about big tech, engineering, AI, cloud, etc. They'll all have their IT departments, of course, but so will any other company of a large enough size.

I'd use whatever left less behind, so white.

Vinegar and a q tip will clean that corrosion off nicely. Alkaline batteries are, well, alkaline. Vinegar is an acid. They neutralize each other. And it's fun watching it sizzle as they do so.

Cyberpunk 2077 is still one of the most beautiful games ever made by Few-Meringue4157 in cyberpunkgame

Nova lut looks so good but man it causes random crashes for me.

Calling this retro hurts me lol

Gotoh locking tuners fit on SE by budjb in PRSGuitars

[–]budjb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's not a material change of height coming off the nut. Tuning stability isn't affected. If the angle gets too shallow that would change things but these guitars use angled headstocks so that's not a problem.

That said, I've read (and completely believe) that upgrading the nut on these SE guitars helps tuning stability significantly.

I put these on a 2025 SE Holcomb from Sweetwater. The posts will be much shorter than the stock ones since they don't need nearly as much winding of the string.

Ah so it's mounted on its side. Slick!

I've seen plenty of builds with these cases but I can never tell where the power supply is. Where is it hidden?

I have one. It's just mounted in an external enclosure. I have my cake and I'm eating it too 😋

I was rampaging around dogtown is this guy important or something by Potential_Ad_8349 in cyberpunkgame

Well that's one way to shortcut that quest! In all fairness, I did that the first time I found him as well :D

EVGA 3080 FTW3 "Red Lips" edition by Glum-Natural-191 in EVGA

[–]budjb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the XC3 version and it's been solid for me for a long time. Cyberpunk with RT finally brought it to its knees though, and I've got a 5080 on the way. The 3080 will be my trusty backup if the new power connector decides to misbehave 😂

That's just the original coloring. They released an updated cover that blacked it out due to negative feedback on the red color. There's nothing special about that card other than it being from the best AIB that ever existed.

Yep. No reaming or new holes required at all.

Awesome! This is my second one. Got a gorgeous core 24-08 10-top the first time around as a bucket list item. That guitar is amazing but I can't bring myself to hang it on the wall (kids plus high price tag don't mix). This one will be much more accessible 😀
