I keep saying “Computers is not a hobby for me”

Also you just did the thing

Linux people are unhelpful true once again

Aesthetically, but imagine you’re waiting for a tank to spawn in, and a brick by brick building animation plays before it’s ready. And everything blows up to a spectacle of bricks flying

conversely, Battlefield: Lego

Language fails us again and again, how often do we have to compare things to other feelings of sensation? Miscommunications? How short do words fall time and time again? A fool believes our words are enough, like a haggard face cant speak volumes with more clarity without a single word being said.

American, Mid 30s, and all cars I’ve owned so far are Manual Transmission.

The shitposty part of me wants to call it a giant stim toy

I saw two borked up ads that played audio and no video, refreshed my browser and haven’t seen them since. I also updated my block list and it’s been fine.

acting like these dont exist in the west as I breathlessly scream about how this is proof of a dictatorship

because it’s shit

All those i figured

and the pet project of the person kicked out of Mozilla for continuing to defend harmful political donations

This one is interesting to me because it begins to explains why it has the same terrible clipart lions head logo as a bunch of deadend political parties, groups, and candidates. It seems pretty obvious now

Cant say i’ve had that particular problem, except for gain. This makes me think i have a problem in my preamp section.

I wish i could switch out tubes for 2 of my amps. But they got EXPENSIVE, especially cause i favored Sovteks cause they used to be the cheapest. Also all my amps are Sovteks so i thought it was funny

Same story with mine, i ended up getting one as a teen, then bought another for dirt cheap 7 years ago. Had some guy repair it in the past after tubes blew, ended up cutting a ground wire to V1. This amp always has a dirty character, then i picked up another and it’s clean and loud and completely managable.

My latest gremlin has been a tone that generates under a note i play that overpowers my highest notes with an inharmonic distortion. But that’s gone away the last time i played it.

That sounds right. Amps are such annoying little fragile things arent they?

I’ve recently returned to wanting to get into guitar amplifier repair and design.

I have a pair of amps that i want to diagnose some particular problems and perhaps design a new pcb for or build out whole new ones

Now give me 20 80 bucks.

No. This framing is incredibly foolish. If a term is hurtful to a group of people, you stop using it in favor of other words, otherwise you demonstrate you dont care that it is hurtful to a group of people, hence “continually stabbing the victim”

I’m seeing a bunch of tacked on cosmetic bits made to give the look of performance to computers. According to another post, that one-for-one matches my last known definition to the term.

Also nonracists using a racist term doesnt make the term stop being racist. Curing doesnt start by not meaning it when you keep using the racist term. You dont bandage a stab wound by continually stabbing the victim.

If you cant put a set of rays on your pc can you even call it done? 😤

They were not called that “for a brief moment” it’s been used to put down import tuner cars for decades by people who’d rather drive mustangs and camaros. It was meant to put down:

• small displacement import cars
• tuned import cars
• (and this one i remember cause it wasnt that long ago) cars with cheap or considered tacky modifications that often only alluded to performance modification.

It’s so obviously loaded with racist connotation that I dont know why you’d want to defend it so badly.

Also it’s not two manufacturers. Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Mistubishi were all putting out sporty cars that were getting performance numbers rivaling v8 block american cars at the time

It was racist WITHIN MY OWN LIFETIME unless you fell out the applecart yesterday that still applies to you.
