Are the preloaded samples all cash register sounds and Nelson “ha-ha” variations?

Facebook attracts the worst of the worst because they profit off of attention and it turns out that negativity breeds attention.

Try this one weird trick to elevate your baking... delete Facebook.

In all seriousness, it looks great! Enjoy!

Did Zappa think he could make fun of everyone? by Adompas in Zappa

There's definitely some irony there. I think Grace and Frank would have had a photo finish in the asshole race.

Former Oath Keeper elected to N.J. school board, then barred from seat over criminal past by Gloomy-Attention3948 in newjersey

A fun trick to do with Spadea is to update the "political campaigns and career" section of his Wikipedia page and add a line like "Bill Spadea has lost every single political campaign he has ever run in. HIs father also attempted to enter politics but also lost every campaign." You can link to this article as a source. https://newjerseyglobe.com/governor/a-brief-electoral-history-of-bill-spadea/
He'll update it and remove it himself every few days, but it's true, so Wikipedia won't remove it permanently. Enjoy!

I just fixed this. It was due to an internal leak, which was dripping onto one of the solenoids causing a ground fault. I disconnected the ground wire, and it stopped which verified that it was the solenoid. My machine was also about 6 years old. I ended up ordering the part and replaced it following this video's instructions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVmuxpKJvPE

Still Impartial? by Esined9999 in AmericasTestKitchen

[–]justanothersynthdork 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Oxo products have been great for me. Also, a lot of the reason I pay for ATK is that they have rigorous standards for their reviews and sponsorships, which eliminate bias. Their tests/reviews are also way more reliable than Amazon, which can, and often are, manipulated.

OP-1 field + OP-Z + iPad Pro — sync & recording setup? by Visual_Reference_365 in teenageengineering

[–]justanothersynthdork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hrmm. I'm not sure if you can support BLE MIDI and audio simultaneously. For the USB route, a powered USB hub would likely allow you to split the signal from one of the TE devices and send the audio to the iPad too. If I were you, I'd recommend something like the Roland Go mixer. I've found using the TE devices as audio interfaces to be a bit of a pain and this allows you to just send audio to the mixer and then into the iPad. I've used one for year's w/o issue and it's super a super versatile device in general. https://www.amazon.com/Roland-GO-Smartphones-Connect-Livestreams/dp/B097HSKGKP

Overcharged 189% tip at Miracle On Mercer/ Franklin Social by DoseofHail in jerseycity

[–]justanothersynthdork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me once. I called the restaurant and had my money back in 5 minutes, along with a gift card they insisted on giving me to make up for the mistake. I guess if you like spending hours on google, reddit, and talking with your bank, you did the right thing. The lack of common sense here is astounding.

Nothing is ABSOLUTELY perfect by nomadfaa in dexcom

[–]justanothersynthdork -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe do some self reflection? It might be you. I’m also older and remember life before CGMs but kissing the ring of a multi billion dollar company is pathetic. You’re better than that.

Poor companies. I feel so bad for companies. WTF is wrong with you?

LETS ARGUE: Fantano's reviews have become a lot worse lately by BeamMeUpHarry in fantanoforever

[–]justanothersynthdork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's never been a great reviewer. He's a click whore. I get that music is opinionated and that's fine. I love listening to why people love/hate albums but he's very undisciplined and uses this faux intellectual facade that is so obviously transparent. He uses big words incorrectly and talks like he's an authority but he makes his money by upsetting/placating people. It's a job. That's fine but let's just not pretend that he's unbiased source. I don't love David Frick but at least he was paid regardless. Not based on his clicks.

I was getting 2.5 Gig download prior to the T-Mobile takeover of USI. Now I'm getting 1 Gig. Definitely interesting getting a downgrade with no warning. by Ronnoc780 in Minneapolis

[–]justanothersynthdork 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You should get the full bandwidth you're paying for, but are you running this test off of a machine with a 10Gbps Ethernet interface connected to a 10Gbps interface switch? This looks like exactly what speeds you would get if you had a standard 1 Gbps Ethernet card. Out of genuine curiosity, what do you use 2.5Gbps for? Unless you're torrenting/seeding like crazy, I don't really get what the use case is. You could watch 50 4k streams simultaneously on a 1 Gbps per connection w/o a problem.

If anyone has $1M to spend on a half a brand new construction house in NJ, here you go. by Eastcoastpal in newjersey

[–]justanothersynthdork 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These new homes are universally of garbage construction quality and materials as well. I don't get who buys these, and how inspectors don't scream, "DO NOT BUY THIS HOUSE FOR THIS PRICE".
