Yeah, I’m getting ready to stop scrolling “All”. It’s becoming more depressing than Reddit or Facebook ever was. US Presidential Election year rage bait is back in full swing I guess and Lemmy isn’t immune. I might lean more back into my hobbies, personal projects, and games while keeping my news feeds on a weekly review.
Last year I bought an Harley Benton Telecaster and I loved it right away. Today I’m going to make it even better by upgrading its weak spots like the tuners, the electronics and the plastic nut. I’m also going to mod the wiring with a 4-way switch and adding a “pickup in series” mode....
Nice! Love to see this! I’m rereupgrading my first electric guitar. It’s a budget strat. I redid a bunch of things on it in 2020 but I miss the stock pickups. They had a tone quality I haven’t been able to replicate on any other guitar. I’m also returning it to mostly its original look with a new pick guard that has the same style. And I really wanted locking tuners like my Charvel has. Also thinking of sanding down the back of the neck to remove the glossy finish. I’ll keep the 2020 upgrades attached to the old pick guard and do hot swaps when I get bored with the new setup. Excited to see stuff like this, maybe I’ll share my rebuild with this group!
Right? I got a PRS in 2020 and a few months later decided to redo my first strat. I’ve barely touched the PRS and the reborn budget strat gets all the attention!
I remember when the algorithms started sorting by engagement rather than chronologically. I quickly came up with a workaround to keep my feed the way it was, but, eventually that workaround was removed. I still checked the website occasionally but noticed the overall tone becoming less vane, over sharing, people using it like journals and selfie bombing to more angry, rage filled, posting news articles, boomer cartoons and jpeg fuzzy memes. It took a major turn after 2016 elections in US. Instagram was my go to after that but in about a year or so the same sequence of bs started happening. Haven’t really engaged with either service since 2020 save for occasional things to check a couple times a month.

Being on the applicant side, you almost will never hear from or speak to a human. There is no way of validating what the result of the job wound up being. Was it filled, cancelled, did the company die? Likely filled, but often you won’t even get an automated response for 6 months. I haven’t been on the applying side in almost a decade, but I recall submitting something like 50 applications a week. I’d usually get a call back for a role or two every other week, and out of the 12 or so interviews I landed, 5 went to second interviews, and I received 2 offers. I was still fairly early career then but the hoops I had to jump through just to land a call was insane! Don’t get me started on hiring processes now, my company requires video resumes for outside applicants. It’s so unnecessary! Sorry for the word wall!
lol, the offer is pay $200 starting fee to your upline before we send you to brainwashing “training” sessions. “Before you know it you’ll be raking in millions!” I had a buddy of mine fall into an MLM after failing to sell his handmade creams. I think he’s still trapped in it while his wife works her ass off to make ends meet with their two kids. Feel bad for her more than him. But more angry at MLMs, truly scummy.
I don’t know what it is but I love it when the word slam is casually thrown into headlines and articles. Some weird fetish I guess. I don’t like clickbait but the use of that word is hilarious to me, especially when describing casual arguments like this instance.
Ugh, some days are tough. Man, why you gotta keep bringing this up. The good news is I finished the bathroom project I started 2.5 years ago on Sunday.
I definitely went down the rabbit hole after reading the article posted, which was very well compiled. Their testing and reviews are very high quality and it looks like they can apply their test results to multiple curated use cases. Their tests also seem repeatable, which is important for this niche. To branch out, they would have to build out very specific testing environments, which is not a small investment, depending on what they are testing. If I ever need an air purifier, I know where to look now I guess. Like some say, if your going to do something, focus on doing one thing and do it well.
Man, I want to get back into this game, I never beat it either. But some of the boss battles are like intricate dances. Don’t even get me started on the path of pain.
