So dont even have a month of federation yet

Yeah, dunno how #10 accurately reflects our rank because we are far and away more active than many of these instances

I would’ve guessed 20x more.

We love our emotes

Curious about the blank stats for hexbear. Should this populate over several weeks or do they pull from OUR statistics and it just didnt take them yet?

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.

I dont see how you can defend this. You acknowledge it’s based on a racist term. There’s no reclamation going on, you just lifted context and addressed none of the problems. And no part of you is saying “we could probably use another work here” in all of this?

• it started as something racist
• but then—

We can stop right there

Knowing enough of the process makes it incredibly easy to slack off, and that should always be the goal.

there are a lot of <250 user instances on that list.

They would probably never see their local content again

Stop being a worm and answer the question
