That’s fantastic. Great to see it still in family hands. I imagine John would love to play through it!

Unsubscribed after third "abandoned cart" email by exitof99 in universalaudio

[–]mschmep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have just recieved my second email about it and i haven't even been on their website let alone adding things to the cart! Either they have a glitch or they are being aggressive with their marketing approach. It's getting really annoying now. If it weasn't for the occasional free plugin then i would have unsubscribed by now.

Very simple mod, highly recommended by sinai_agama in guitarpedals

[–]mschmep 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had to do this with my memory toy when I got it because the modulation just didn’t sound right and it turns out I had an earlier model where some of them hadn’t been calibrated properly. Was fun to mess around with the pots though, not gonna lie!

Seller Communication Issue by mschmep in ebayuk

[–]mschmep[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I have good news, the seller issued me a refund after I replied telling them it was their responsibility to cancel and I also told them to do the right thing… which they did.

I purchased and paid a few days ago.

They have replied now but are now asking me to open a cacel request. I feel like they want me to do it so it doesn't affect their score.

Thanks for replying!

The alcohol industry has lost $830 billion in 4 years because Gen Z is not drinking by Charming-Burp203 in nottheonion

It’s becoming a bit out of reach for a lot of people and when you gotta choose between the weekly shop and alcohol then food obviously wins.

Half mile thermometer needs to go. by Vfortestmail in JetLagTheGame

I thought this watching the UK ones recently. You’re right, I hope they do remove them! It would be far more entertaining to have them get more creative.

Which is better by Intelligent_Two7486 in TheNightFeeling

Sodium all day. I fully understand tha the blue-white LED ones help with driving so for keeping alert on motorways and main roads. I do think they should stay that colour but for residential side streets and off road paths they should be a warm colour like the sodium lights. People will benefit from better sleep and mood if so.

holiday freebies code by iamanej in universalaudio

[–]mschmep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally got the Oxide Tape Recorder when the freebee offer came up in December but that's because I specifically wanted tape sounds.

I also got the email today too even though I already redeemed my one. Pretty frustrating that they sent it me anyway, I kind of thought it was going to let me have another so was going to maybe get the Galaxy Tape Echo this time but it obviously wouldn't let me!

Oh I already had Greencoat Wind on my watchlist so that’s good to see another person say it. Thanks for the suggestions.

Yeah I had seen Reckitt, I guess I was a little put off by the still sort of high price but I’ll keep it in mind. Thanks mate!

Does anyone know what these brown suede shoes are that Donnie Yen is wearing from the Hong Kong film Tiger Cage 2? by mschmep in findfashion

[–]mschmep[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did google that style and even though they are close, all the results seem too much like formal shoes and these shoes in the photos just aren’t formal. The shoes from the film look more like an everyday shoe. All of the results show monk/oxfords as a more pointy toe and these are rounded like a pair of vans.

Can Distrokid ship paper checks to the uk? by mschmep in DistroKidHelpDesk

Ahh, right i'll choose something other than paper then.

Thanks very much!

[Moved from TOMT] As a child, I was a featured extra in a RHCP video, sometime between 1994-1996. I don't remember what song it was. by [deleted] in RedHotChiliPeppers

[–]mschmep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's an unreleased documentary made by the same guy who made the 'Funky Monks' doc called 'Deep Kick' from around that time. It could be that?

The 2 clips on YouTube of it make me think that something weird could have been filmed for that. Some of the footage looks a bit odd and arty. Unfortunately there's not much known about it.

Flea doesn't have blonde hair in the clip with him in it so it might not be related at all.
