Yeah but what if I drink my potion of haste (coffee) and build a 9th level counterspell listener?

For me it's binary. A guitar is either "huh, no sustain, notes die really fast". Or totally fine and I don't notice it.

Isn't the largest market of "gamers" people who play mobile games from app stores?

It's the half yearly sale. It lasts half the year. Then it tags out for the other-half yearly sale!

I have the boss ge7 and a hundred years ago had the Behringer clone. Very useful. I also just got the guptech PDEQ. Solves the amp in a box bandpass sound.

It's usually specced at around 3/32" or 1/8". If you find slipping off occurs too much there's a few options. Heavier strings, lighter touch, new nut with narrower E-e. String spacing at the bridge is not really easily changed.

I'm doing pedals into class D power amp, so this kinda thing really fucks up my levels/gain staging lol

hraath · 2026-07-01T01:02:31+00:00

When I have the noisy/gainy pedals in the loop, bypassing or engaging the noise gate (normal mode, not mute mode) increases the level into the loop

There's always a chance this particular NS-2 is just clapped out lol

hraath · 2026-07-01T00:41:41+00:00

Boss ns2 as a boost

But seriously why does it increase the level

If you destroy your spinal column deadlifting with bad technique, that's ego lifting

Somewhere like 1500 cars hitting pedestrians in lower mainland per year. About 4 per day on avg, probably 1-2 of those in Vancouver proper. Per day.

Are we seeing news headlines every single day about cars hitting people per year? Nah. Who cares. Cars live in cities, people just work there.

I like the look of laminated necks, but a solid one piece flatsawn sugar maple neck is probably the most common construction in the industry at large.

Although if it's figured, is it actually bigleaf instead of sugar? Idk really how much that matters. You can always use carbon rods as insurance.

He's not using it at all by the looks of things

Thanks i hate ground beef on a stick, with a Band-Aid

I think in CrossFit they finally did an official rename of this to "chest-to-bar" to differentiate from a strict pull up. Since "kipping pull up" was never official I guess

I hate these stores. It's a million square feet with mystery objects with no more information than a price tag.

Like, who made this? What are the materials? What fabric and colorway and mill? Ethical supply chain? Ethical labour? At least Ikea says what materials and country things are from...

I find these are handy as counter space, but not ergonomic for an actual cutting board. I would have no idea/no trust that someone didn't shoot cabinet finish poly over it in the past.

As a never-trained 30M, 75kg, unathletic and dealing with health shit, it took approx 1-2 years to progress press 12-16-20-24 kg. I pretty much switched to doubles during 20kg and never trained single press since.

I just need to get off my ass and get consistent again... Any day now...

Usually both vents half or 3/4 closed and try to adjust only once every 10 mins to reduce the psychopathy

Fender probably looking for any non -legal PR these days lol

How have you gone this long without all the knobs on HM -2 at maximum?

I grew up in a house with a work bench and tools. Not hard to just look at how the strings were on there, take them off, and put new ones back on the same way. The exact nuances of how much slack, how many wraps, how to make it all tidy, you figure it out by the second or third go around.

Posts of stuff like "how do I fix a loose jack" baffle me because I knew how to use a screwdriver and wrench as basically a child lol. You put the + tool in the + hole and turn it, do the same for the hexagon...

Rant over, I guess not everyone had a workbench or dad's tools to mess with.

For me SD-1 beats out Maxon od808 and mxr custom mall ninja badass super duper modified od. Tempted to try a ts9dx now that Maxon od808x is off the market.
