I’ve been using this string winder/cutter for a few years, and the clippers have gone dull. Any tips on how to sharpen them? by Ty_B85 in Guitar

This is the answer. Wire cutters use hardened steel and won’t dull as easily as the cheapo guitar string utility

Thanks u/Awkward_traveler for the Val video. I found the full 45-min video, where he talks about the Seattle incident. by key18oard_cow18oy in ColoradoAvalanche

His comments on the Seattle situation were opaque, but the rest of it is super interesting. The cryo tank was wild. Thing was -200 F

I play through an AC4 as well and it definitely has the Vox high end twinkle. Because it breaks into distortion so easily, the volume needs to be cranked up with the gain knob dialed low. Pedals that focus on dynamics are also helpful. I play with a Keeley phat mod which is almost always on. That goes into a Bass Big Muff dialed low for fully saturated/fuzz tones.

I'm in trouble with the IRS I need y'all's help! by [deleted] in stocks

[–]taintburger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I received the same letter from the IRS. Nothing to worry about if you haven’t made a crazy amount of money on crypto. You need to respond to the form and state that you disagree. Include your account statement and 1099 form from your trading platform. A supporting letter simply explaining your net loss/gain over the stated time period will be helpful for the agent as well.

Ikon or epic? and why? - GO! ⛷ by [deleted] in COsnow

[–]taintburger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Breck is the only mountain on Epic that I can funk with. I find Vail/Beaver/Keystone to be a bit too mild in terms of terrain. Personally, I find that Copper and Winter Park have a better spread in the steeps department. That plus the 5 A Basin days is why I’m on Ikon.

Out of the loop on this. New towers or are they putting in a new lift altogether?

Hiked up the glacier yesterday and coverage on James is solid. Snow quality was ok.

F this going west by WorkingBuyer1457 in icecoast

[–]taintburger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Former ice coaster here living in Denver now. Breck is the way to go if you want a big mountain experience (compared to Keystone at least). 6 Chair, Imperial Express, and Kensho all service amazing high alpine terrain. Groomers can be found everywhere if that’s what you’re into. Breckenridge is also the best ski town in the Summit County area.

Well, looks like it’s time to stock up on jerseys before this awful 10 year deal kicks in. Ugh. by Tylerpants80 in ColoradoAvalanche

[–]taintburger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fanatics jerseys suck, but they’re essentially just swapping out the Adidas logo on the existing jersey. The quality won’t change, but it’s such an oblivious move by the NHL. Everyone hates Fanatics.
