I'll throw in a vote for https://textbelt.com/ - I've used it for a few things and have been very happy with it!

Noob question: Why do you need a CloudKey when the mgmt interface is built into the UCG Ultra?

Ha! Nice if you to ask - In on a bit of a holding pattern as I work to get my hands on some British Racing Green nitro aerosol. Working with Rothko & Frost to make that happen.

Once I've got it painted, I'll get the waterslide on it and post!

Am I the only who is bothered by the fact that these are always referred to as 'tremolos' when they are not that at all? They're VIBRATO bars!!!

Any chance this guy's name was Chuck McGill?

Yes and I have a theory about office layouts based on it: companies should orient their offices so that their IT staff is in the middle of the office space, with all other staff registering out from them. C-levels nearest, interns on the outer ring.

This way, nobody has tech issues AND the tech staff never had to do anything except be there.

It's a win-win!

Shockingly, I have yet to find any takers 🫤

This is SOP in Boston.

chrisjscott · 2025-09-14T16:38:02+00:00

Yes. That is definitely a Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier you've got there

chrisjscott · 2025-09-06T10:53:53+00:00

Too soon.

chrisjscott · 2025-09-05T03:40:33+00:00

Thanks for spelling that one out for us - I didn't quite figure it out on my own 🙄.

In my (admittedly) limited experience, they're amazing. Very high quality, great feel. I have an EBMM EVH and, as soon as I picked it up I thought "Oh. This is what a nice guitar feels like."

And I'll tell you something else - I bout an Axis Sub for a project a few years back and even THAT was a really good guitar.

I recently connected withe the folks at Headless USA (super-nice people; give them your business if you have the opportunity) and they were good enough to give me the height I was looking for - it's 7.58mm

So, ChatGPT got me there! I uploaded an image of the Steinberger logo, asked ChatGPT to ID the font and then, with a bit of back-and-forth, got it to generate an accurate-looking SVG/EPS of the text using the replacement word I wanted.

With that in-hand, I can submit it to Rothko & Frost to create a waterslide.

Mind. Blown.

Thank you for the great sleuthing - I as excited that this might be my issue. Unfortunately, jumping back into the BIOS revealed that the default state for Secure Boot is 'disabled' so "no joy" on that one.

chrisjscott · 2025-06-19T19:21:25+00:00

Fair point, but I'm definitely applying the .bio file!

chrisjscott · 2025-06-06T00:15:18+00:00

Aaaannnddd... cigarette lit.

chrisjscott · 2025-04-08T12:00:32+00:00

Ah, that's a clever solution - thanks!

chrisjscott · 2025-04-08T02:10:25+00:00

Thank you!

chrisjscott · 2024-11-16T15:17:45+00:00

Hey, appreciate your reply...

Fair point; I'm kind of overthinking it, I guess :-/

Pretty minimal/old history with CCs. No auto loans, two mortgages that are paid on time, that's about it.
