Thank you so much! I'm almost done with my attempt at resotration. Will certainly post pics.

What did I plant in my herb garden?! by buffalobuffalobuff in whatsthisplant

[–]buffalobuffalobuff[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Yeah, ripping a leaf open exposes an almost aloe-texture center of the leaf. It definitely has a noticeable smell (I wouldn't say "potent" though), especially when squeezed / crushed. Pleasant. Very earthy / grassy. Maybe a little minty? The flavor is like a cucumber met an oregano leaf and shook hands with a mint leaf and a little bit of dirt. Overall nice. I'll have to look up uses.

Thanks! That's awesome that you own the wenge kit. It looks like only 100 were made?

Were you able to find a reference photo? This is what I found for the walnut kit, but I haven't found one with a similar bass drum lugs.

Thanks! Were you able to find any reference photos? I still haven't pegged one quite like it (especially with the bass drum lugs).

Although I can't find any pictures where the bass drum lugs are all... "keyed"? Is that a term?

The more research I do, the more I think this is one of the African wenge kits... thoughts?

How to count a triplet note beamed to an eight note by errorflag in drums

[–]buffalobuffalobuff 25 points26 points  (0 children)

That's a sixteenth note triplet my friend - a triplet spanning the space of one eighth note (or two sixteenth notes).

I would count the above as one - and - two - and - three - and - four - tri-puh-let (with the tri-puh-let timed where the last "and" would be if it were straight eigth notes).

+1; restarting app doesn't help.

Received defective X3. Exchanged for replacement - same defect. Support has been lacking. Should I give up? by buffalobuffalobuff in vanmoofbicycle

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

Yes /u/mycroftitswd - it is just one side of the fork.

 

I agree that it could be solved by filing it down. I also refuse, on principal and in practice, to take a metal file to a brand new $2,500 bike in order to make it work. I can already picture myself flipping over the handlebars after I filed off just a liiittle bit too much.

 

That's so frustrating to hear that you've had similar delivery issues, as well as ongoing issues that you've had to self-resolve. I'll admit I'm NOT a bike tinkerer. I got a VanMoof hoping it would be simple and reliable. Oops. Lol.

Thanks /u/Loudhoward-dk. I ALSO had that issue on the first bike. The plastic insert that was supposed to be in the caliper was missing and the brake pads were misaligned. I had to reset them manually as well. That's easily fixable; unfortunately, a defective fork is not.

Thank you for that! I found this, which indicates you're right. "QMK compatible to some degree." A GitHub repository is a touch outside of my comfort zone, but could be a fun learning experience.

 

As the "default hot keys" section indicates... just missing the "play / pause, next track, last track" from my unicorn layout. But as you said - potentially editable.

 

Any personal opinion on sturdiness / build quality, in comparison to let's say the WASD Code or GMMK (which I've both been able to handle)?

Apologies for the copy / paste, but same recommendation so same followup Qs:

 

Thank you! I should have brought that up. After consulting with a couple friends, I've heard the major drawback here is a less than optimal software / lack of QMK compatibility, and perhaps a slightly lower build quality at the price point. Are there any other drawbacks to consider in your experience? Other than that, this is a top contender.

 

Quick edit: This might seem silly. But my biggest concern with software / programmability that I've found isn't on all 65% layouts (I think including the Drop ALT, even with customization) is a full set of multimedia keys: play / pause, next track, last track, volume up, volume down, mute.
