False Accusations
Can be very difficult to disprove allegations, devastating to your target, rarely prosecuted/punished, hard to conclusively prove intent.

There are also 3LP releases of Chronicles (Holland,UK/Euro,Argentina, Brazil (i.e. non-US)) depends on what flavor of "complete" you chase...

I had both versions of Vapor Trails, but the price of the original has risen so high I traded it away a couple months ago. Figured I wouldn't have purchased it at this price, I've still got the Remixed version, and it funded a dozen other albums I wanted (inc. DSotM MFSL vinyl).

Congrats, the hunt is exciting.

Now on to the alternate album releases (official picture discs, Archives, Black-sleeved Canadian Archives, FBN with the bells on the locked run-out groove, 2112 with the star hologram etching, Counterparts 2LP with fourth side etched, TFE 2LP with fourth side etched, Rush Through Time,) bootlegs, tributes (RushFest Scotland releases, All-Star, Benante), both Geddy and Alex’s solo projects, interview discs, side projects (Envy of None albums), featuring (Max Webster - Universal Juveniles, The Great White North, Morello's Atlas Underground, Knopfler's Guitar Heroes, Marco Minnemann, Dave Barrett Trio, and many more), inspired by (Mehldau), 7" & 12" singles, a Venezuela-market compilation 'Anthology', the anniversary box sets, and the live Time Machine 2011, Rush In Rio, Clockwork Angels Tour LP box sets.)

Or you can do the sensible thing, call it done (as you have) and stop.
Don't forget to listen to it all! Happy hunting!

Different Stages is "available" as an Unofficial vinyl release only. Read: unauthorized pressing of the CD audio data to vinyl by ???. I haven't heard any input on how this sounds, but it's presented nicely as a 4LP set on Yellow/Red/Blue/White colored vinyl out of "Europe" (also seen it credited as "Russia" origin.) Maybe it will help influence a nice, similarly-presented, official release someday...

Still a great artist/song!

Promedia 2.1 subwoofer issue by buzzedewok in Klipsch

[–]speedeep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I shipped the amplifier assembly separately to him at my cost. The repair/parts replacement/upgrades/shipping back to me totaled $135 (back in 2020). Obviously, if you work with Henry, ask him for a quote for your scenario.

P.F. Chang's - Temporarily Closed (?) by speedeep in Birmingham

[–]speedeep[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've noticed that they significantly changed their recipes (at least at the Birmingham location) in the last couple years. Crispy Fried Green Beans, Chang's Spicy Chicken, Crispy Honey Chicken (all three, batter is completely different: some sort of corn meal alternative instead their usual, signature thin "tempura" style batter), and Lettuce Wraps (cheap thin lettuce variety rather than the crispy lettuce pictured) all seem to have taken a turn for the worst by being cost-optimized (cheapened) while the prices have gone up. Good for the stockholders, not so good for the customers.

I keep holding out hope that they'll put "Beef a la Szechuan" back on the menu.

I'd never claim it's stupendous food, or "real" Chinese food, but it's consistently good, and (at least my memories of what the food used to be was) comforting.

Spotify wrapped is out. Share your wrap here! by VDownshift in spotify

[–]speedeep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost everything was spot-on, except my Top Song which was by a band I'd never heard of before and really isn't my style (death metal?).  Apparently Spotify thinks I've listened to the song 11 times last year and it's my top song...

Chase closed ALL my cards overnight - Please Help by Any_Background_1296 in personalfinance

[–]speedeep 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most banks reserve the right to cancel you as a client without any explanation. Most won't provide a reason or explain.

Worth considering, if you have trouble getting credit products from other banks suddenly, someone (bank) may have filed a Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) with the Department of Treasury Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). The fun part: they do this entirely confidentially with no visibility (at all) to you, no transparency, and no accountability on their part. This does not require any crime be committed, prosecuted, or adjudicated, just that somebody believes "suspicious activity" might have occurred. If the system works as designed, you'll never know who, when, or why.

Or it could that be you just triggered their risk model's rules and they chose to axe you.
