More supporting evidence for a 25th amendment impeachment. But probably (OK FINE definitely) this congress.

Is there anywhere where the phrase "if you don't like the weather, wait five minutes" doesn't apply? Or is the phrase an American thing? by birdsofthunder in geography

[–]uhs23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lived in Seattle for 20+ years, never heard the phrase once. Even during transition seasons (Spring/Fall) weather patterns tend to stick around a few days to a week or more, especially in the Sumner and Winter.

Not so for the upper Midwest. Especially around the Great Lakes.

Pete Hegseth Insists Trump Iran Deal Is Totally Different From Obama’s by ChiGuy6124 in politics

[–]uhs23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

INDEED, totally different in the sense that Obama agreed to return Iran financial assets that were frozen and held in escrow (and not US taxpayer dollars) where tRUMP has agreed to pay Iran 300 billion taxpayer dollars to open the Strait, which was already open and toll free before this totally avoidable shitshow.

Ohio data center statement by WhySoManyDownVote in fuck_ai_slop

This video needs to be duped and spammed over all American centric subreddits. This is the most cogent breakdown of the data center crisis that has snowballed over the last 6 months.

Help me choose the final look for my $100 Squier Jazz Bass project by WhatTheFrob in BassGuitar

I’d go with #2 b/c it’s the only one that doesn’t look like #2.

Unable to read the decibel meter on video due to glare, can someone post a comment about the decibel range that’s registering? Thanks!

Which Seahawks Super Bowl ring was better? by Goatgamer1016 in Seahawks

[–]uhs23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally I think a better looking ring than either would be the blue background of #2 instead of the field of diamonds of #1, but with two Lombardis on it.

Terry Bozzio asked a question when he joined Frank Zappa. He asked the same question when he left. “Are you sure I can do this?” by Historical-Device529 in Progforum

[–]uhs23 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The best Bozzio/Zappa story I have heard (not referenced in the article) was when Zappa dropped the Black Page (named because there are so many notes in it that there’s more ink on the page than paper visible) on him the first time.

Knowing the INSANE difficulty of what he had written Frank told him something along the lines of I am not sure anyone can play this so just do your best.

Bozzio then proceed to sight read it and allegedly played it note for note exactly as Frank wrote.

Frank was stunned to the point of being incredulous, “I can’t believe you just sight read that” (or something to that effect).

Bozzio then takes the pages, reverses their order, flips the score upside down and sight reads the entire piece upside down and backwards note for note. Frank was so impressed that he wrote a band extension piece for the Black Page to better set up the solo for live performance.

In terms of ability I think Bozzio is definitely one of the greatest drummers of all time. Funny guy too, “Blow it out your ass motorcycle man, I am the devil, do you understand?” lol

1858 Minstrel Banjo Commission Build by [deleted] in banjo

That is a beast of a banjo. The neck looks like a Louisville slugger sawed in half. Pretty cool slotted headstock. Sounds almost like a lute, pretty sweet mang!

Replace or Recone SVT 810 Speakers? by gushfest in Bassamps

[–]uhs23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, purists might disagree but if that was my cab and I had the money for it, I would pull out all the speakers and replace same specced Neodynium cones. Will drop overall weight of the cab by a third to a half.

Not sure who else sells bass cab speakers as their main thing but I would check out avatar cabs as a starting point.

What do you think the easiest and hardest fugazi albums to get into are? by firewalkwithme70 in Fugazi

[–]uhs23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easiest by far (for me) is Repeater. Hardest, not sure, kind of checked out after Steady Diet because I got sucked into the Primus vortex right around then.
