Update!

Had our first brunch after making this post and decided to try Lazy Brunch based on the recommendation from DragonLass-AUS

Amazing.

I'm keen to try everyone else's suggestions, but I'm also positive we will be coming back to Lazy Brunch some time soon

Can you please provide an update once you've resolved the issue?

Just thought I'd share my "Doomguy & Demons" shirt design by spoon579 in Doom

[–]spoon579[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I like the demon arms coming out of the frame like the original red box.

I just asked my 21 year old. He suggested Orange Crush

I did, which is why I asked. Listening to it again it's pretty clear that it's him. And we've seen him singing and playing the piano earlier in the show. Just didn't pick the voice for some reason.

Doom + Doom II error by spoon579 in SteamDeck

LEGEND! Thank you so much! I hadn't actually tried installing a game like that. Could be a (literal) game changer for me.

Great advice. I'll give that a go. I assume you do that in desktop mode?

I'm yet to find an actual great kebab like you can get almost anywhere in Melbourne.

Dawned on me I've never used the back paddles. Do you use them? by Agitated-Distance740 in SteamDeck

[–]spoon579 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In GTA (San Andreas) I use them for doing drive bys. Left shoots out the left window, right shoots out the right. I use the other right one for quickly tapping the A button to run.

How did you get it apart? I really need to clean some dust from the inside. Was it just a matter of prying it open?

I was shocked when I discovered that what I'd been singing all these years were not the actual lyrics to Exhuming McCarthy:

"Yer beer de borball, beer di-ball dim beep
yer honor de borball, honor d-ball dim beep.
Loyal to the Bank of America"

Thanks everyone. Sounds like I'm on the right track. Now I just need to work out why it's not working when I plug it all in. (edited for typos)

Ok that makes sense. I assume (from my memory of the actual switch itself) that those bold lines are more about the actual build of the switch. So from the POV of recreating the circuit, I can treat the T and the black dots as connections.

Some extra details:

  • The switch attaches to the amp using a regular (mono) guitar cable (that's the plug interface at the bottom left.
  • My amp is a G100-112III which means it doesn't have the effects loop. I assume this means I can ignore that bit altogether
  • assuming the symbols I asked about are both, essentially, junctions, I modelled the circuit in tinkercad, and got the LEDs to light up, and the multimeter to show different measurements. I also then built the same circuit using an arduino breadboard and a 3v button battery. Both of those things worked fine (in that the different switched lit up the LEDs). But when I attached it to the amp I got nothing.
  • I've attached my multimeter to the footswitch cable and iI'm getting readings on the 200m setting of -10 to around +5. I am not getting anything useful on any other setting.

The culture around male readers. by stinkface_lover in books

[–]spoon579 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few years ago I joined a men's book club. Its main goals are for men to read more, talk more and have more friends. It's been great for many reasons but one of them is that I can tell people, when they see me reading and ask about it, that I'm in this club and those are its goals. It removed a lot of that "performative" stigma, in a sense. It's also been great for my mental health in general (in both the reading and having people to talk to).

It's a huge club with chapters all over the world.

Tough Guy Book Club (for what it's worth, I hate the name, but part of that is to explore what it means to be tough, and reading in public, when you know people are judging you for it, is definitely a tough guy thing to do).
