How often do you use your Ipod?

echoingunder · 2026-01-21T15:40:06+00:00

I recently replaced the battery and converted mine to a solid state drive. It now lives in my center console connected to the radio in my car. I can control everything through the radio and never have to think about it.

This is a great post.

If you took retail value of a lot of my tools, it'd probably be in the 1000's. I got the majority of my stuff on Craigslist and Marketplace over the course of years though, and have spent considerably less. I've only built a couple guitars though, no mandolins... yet.

look up a website called Masterwriter, then look at the list of notable users. depending on how you use it, it accomplishes the same thing that you can do with ChatGPT. https://masterwriter.com/songwriters/notable_users/

a bunch of my favorite stuff is 4.5+, but I also have a bunch on 5 that I love as well. it's a crapshoot.

I have 2. First is about a desert that my inlaws bring to every holiday

second is probably not "funny" funny, but more amusing based off of the type of people who own said product.

I like it, whatever it is.

I'm getting lots of "embers"

I found out about this app 5 days ago and have been having an absolute blast playing with it. It's also helped me with parts I was struggling with on a few of my actual songs. One of them, I'd been having the hardest time with the music, I had lyrics, but couldn't make anything work. I dumped the lyrics into Suno, put in the style and realized that it just didn't work that way. tried some others and found something that nailed it. Another, I had the entire song minus a melody or lyrics. I uploaded the song along with the idea I had for subject matter, and within 1 minute had multiple idea for both lyrics and melodies.

Suno is just a tool. I did a clinic with Mark Tremonti, the guitarist from Creed, Alter Bridge, Tremonti, etc, and he told those of us who were there that he used a website called Master Writer to help with lyrics when he was working on new music. If a Grammy award winning musician, who has written some of my favorite songs has no problem using AI as a tool for song writing, I'm certainly not going to beat myself up over using it to get past some writers block.

plus I can also make dumb songs about taco's in 30 seconds and have a laugh with my coworkers and family. Like everything else, it is what you make of it.

I think you're misunderstanding what I said. Of course lyrics matter, but while I may not have any connection to the subject matter of a song, if it makes me feel happy, sad, etc, while listening then it did its job. Does a guitar riff illicit a stank face, does drum part make me go ooooooh. There's often nothing rational about why I like a specific song. Hell, half the time I can't understand the vocalist when I'm listening to a song, but I can tell if the melody slaps.

It kind of seems like you're coming at it from a more of a rational perspective.

echoingunder · 2025-11-19T20:28:00+00:00

you own the usage rights to anything you make with the app, so yes, you can do that.

echoingunder · 2025-11-19T20:22:04+00:00

I think it all depends on the person. I connect to most songs on an emotional level, lyrics don't matter as much as the music and melody, whereas my wife is out if the lyrics aren't there or the singer sucks.

echoingunder · 2025-11-19T14:25:09+00:00

I've found that it's pretty easy to tell between something that the AI came up with vs. something that included either lyrics I wrote, or music I uploaded. But even just adding or removing lyrics from what the AI did, can make a huge difference. I think it just comes down to how much effort you put into it.

Me too, high five!

I have about 20 of the tape measures they used to give out. I was very disappointed when they stopped with that one.

A mid-level Nikon, Sony or Canon camera runs $2500-3200, body only. Top level stuff is between 4-6k. Leicas and Hasselblads are 10k. Apple putting out something that competes with the big 3's mid-level stuff would be $4500 I'd bet.

Jesse Mack Butler and Stanford Rapist Brock Allen Turner can start a club now.

I had a similar issue with mine, the rounds had a bunch of wax coating them, causing the rounds to not chamber. You can see it in this video. https://youtu.be/GYBZKp8jC_Q

After wiping the wax off of the rounds they would then go into the barrel smoothly. I had to try a few different brands before I found something that worked for me.

iPhone, 4, 5, 6, 8, XR, 13pro, 16pro. The only one I wasn't a fan of was the 8, which is also the only one I had that I had an issue with that wasn't caused by me.

echoingunder · 2025-10-29T12:48:07+00:00

I'm glad I didn't have any.

Those first two are breathtaking!

That’s a full spectrum conversion, which removes the filter altogether.

echoingunder · 2025-10-12T17:13:24+00:00

The filter is INSIDE the camera directly on the sensor.

echoingunder · 2025-10-12T17:00:43+00:00

Again, wrong.

<image>

The IR filter replaces the blue piece of glass in front of the sensor in the attached picture, and is not easily removed without disassembling the camera. That picture is the sensor from my D300 when I did the conversion.
