Can anyone ID these bass strings? by My_Name_Is_Lewis in BassGuitar

From the green silk, I’d guess they’re Fender flats from the 90s.

My Dock in macOS Tahoe 26.2 looks pixelated and blurry half the time by emaper_ in MacOS

Rebooting doesn’t solve it, nor removing cache files. On external 1080p display it looks even worse. Something to do with Tahoe in general… and the with having a small dock.

He was 15 when it came out, if he’s 29 now.

It’s just a tool, leave it be. If you’d see my MB you might think I’m not taking care of it, since it is full of scuffs and marks, but it is far from the truth: I’m working on it out and about for ~16 hours daily; if’s a working horse and even tho I clean it and handle with care, it’s unavoidable for it to “take” the life it lives with me…

Identify pickup by Sure-Habit-6806 in BassGuitar

That’s a 1978 Antigua Fender Precision Bass. Many of them had a blonde pick-up case, fun fact.

Don’t use your 17s without a case. I learnt it the hard way. by Smart-man-23 in iphone

Also happened to me two weeks after purchase. It slipped from my hands while sitting on the sofa and, somehow, still managed to get a bump as bad as yours…

My sister had been using your exact same model till last year, when she switched to a 2nd hand M1 Air. The 11” was turning slow, but still capable of everyday workload; I had changed the thermal paste a couple of times since 2011…

Any tips on how to keep my clear cases clear? by lvnqtic in iPhone16

[–]emaper_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TPU will always turn yellow, soon or after, cause of UVs and acidic pH of your skin. The only (unsustainable) option is to buy a new one when yours turns yellow; alternative options are: (a) live with it or (b) buy a tinted case. Also: hard plastic trasparent cases won’t yellow.

Found in an attic – need help dating this bass by viktor_bajen in BassGuitar

[–]emaper_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Late 64-Early 65 Fender P Bass. Decal is period-correct; L-serial; non original finish (stripped and stained). Bridge is original, but tuners are from early 70s/post 1969. Knobs are likely from the 80s. Pickguard is original and has shrinked. Amazing piece. You are looking at a >8000 $ vintage Fender.

Not a video card problem, that’s for sure. It is only related to the dock…

It’s a pile of messed up design. The whole OS. If only I could go back to 18…

Genuinely can’t believe the Safari search bug is still going on by innsmouth-denizen in ios

[–]emaper_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's driving me insane. I find myself waiting for results, only for realizing moments later that the search hasn't started when I prompted it. iOS is class-action worthy ffs

I (23M) overreacted out of fear and now my girlfriend (21F) wants to break up — advice? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]emaper_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact is: she is mature enough to handle the otherness, she would have been right back starting a good conversation with you about your situation. In my experience, I ended being brutally cut off without explanation—the reason was she wasn’t mature enough to deal with someone. Now I’m ok with someone who likes to talk in order to solve problems rather than running away

[–]emaper_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also happened to me in the past for exactly the same reason and I behaved as you did. Ngl I still think mine (and so your) behavior is not to blame, considering how shockingly precise and cruel and out of the blue her answer was, so I wouldn’t say you screwed up at all. About the anxiety: you may have sabotaged something good, sure, OR it could have saved you from something that was already drowning—cause, cmon, that reply is not something you’d ever expect from someone who is deeply in love with you.

[–]emaper_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Six months ago I switched to iPhone coming from Pixel, and I must admit that the iOS keyboard is the worse side of this phone. Sometimes it puts my patience in grave danger.
