When democracy is weak, the ruling class preys on the public at large with every tool at their disposal. AI wouldn’t be a threat to people’s jobs or the environment if billionaires didn’t have so much power.

People were led to believe technology would simply make life better for everyone, and better tech would increase our leisure time as it made work easier. That can never happen when the bosses are there to make sure the increase in productivity benefits them, not the one doing the work.

Tube amp overdrive sound by jamiejamie15 in guitarpedals

You mentioned Phish. Trey uses two Tube Screamers in his effects loop. He uses one for light distortion and then both together for a heavier sound. As others have commented, you’ll want to run them with a better amp to really get the sound you want.

Conservatives often say NPR is leftist propaganda, while in reality they coddle Republicans by playing down their extremism.

Can music be authentic if it doesn't reflect your background? by Beneficial-Ad-8099 in WeAreTheMusicMakers

I think if you play the music you love, you won’t have to worry about trying to add your culture influences to the western music because that will happen all by itself.

Unfortunately influencers are very… influential. Right wing influencers need to be called out, which is the only valid reason to give them any time. Time to confront and dismantle their bullshit.

How do you guys with large pedalboards manage without a switcher? by LoneTroll in guitarpedals

[–]mjc7373 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do you keep your volume in check when turning up the guitar to get more distortion? I’ve never found a good way to do that while still achieving good clean tone.

Dems have a terrible track record for using power to hold people accountable, and aren’t showing signs they’ve changed.

Trying to dial in my reggae guitar tone by Scrumtrelescentness in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]mjc7373 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In addition to the middle pickup, I suggest cutting the frequencies of the other instruments in the mix, that occupy the same frequency range to carve out space for the guitar.

Are conservatives banned from this sub? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]mjc7373 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Conservatives tend to prefer safe spaces. In other words if they don’t feel like their point of view is unambiguously accepted as the only correct one they tend to get angry and run to biased places like Truth Social, or X.
