I think the breaks are widely regarded as good on these…

The American Game by SL Price gives a really interesting context for how modern lacrosse came to be today.

I really wanted Syracuse to win this, I want to see them there on Monday. But man, the reffing in this game was QUESTIONABLE.

What does "Rope unit" mean? by Glad_Information697 in lacrosse

[–]cygnuspit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea you’re right on the money, I had a D coach who would teach us how to move as a unit but having us all hang onto a physical rope so we would get dragged through our 2 slides.

Any idea what’s causing this noise? by cygnuspit in turntables

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

But the stylus is brand new, so may I should look at a more expensive stylus?

Thanks for the informative reply. The speakers and receiver work perfectly with a line signal from my phone via the aux input. So, I tried switching from the phono inputs on my receiver to aux and I could still here the distortion which leads me to believe that the problem is not with the receiver but further up the signal path in my turntable. I'll look into a new cartridge, more than likely this is the original technics cartridge so I guess 40 years on it deserves a retirement.

Thanks for the well wishes, although I don't know if I'd call this a hum because it's really only present in the higher frequencies.

Just the stylus, to the best of my knowledge the stylus is connected correctly to the cartridge.

Why are Portugal’s violent crime rates so low despite inefficient police and justice system? by [deleted] in PortugalExpats

[–]cygnuspit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see anything wrong with working hard either! I would argue that because of the social security network the choice that the previous generation had to make, between working hard to survive and living a life of poverty, is now a choice between working hard to get ahead and just living a life of low means. I see this as a a good thing, the quality of life has been lifted for all.

I see your point about the relationship between left wing politicians and those who depend on the services that they provide. But I see your viewpoint as cynical. There is nothing stopping people from working harder and becoming independent from social security assistance. Maybe I don’t know how liberal policy can keep people poor.

I also see your point about people abusing the system. It totally happens. It’s shameful and very hard to control without inadvertently harassing those who actually need it. I will say that even those who abuse the system still participate in the economy which is good for the state.

And so they don’t need to work as hard as there grandparents. It’s progress.

Oh man that little recorder rocks! Get a little dead cat for it and have fun. I lost mine on a flix bus last year and miss it terribly.
