  1. Now get AI to make an Aggy personal on SEC grinder.
  2. This is 100% true, and the people who I put the least faith in are those that believe that the information they want is the only shred of truth in a sea of bullshit.
  3. You can speak for yourself, but you can't speak for the people I know and that you don't. Vaya con Satán, dipshit.
  4. This is what I use in my solo performances. It's definitely a step up in price and complexity/learning curve, but its great if you want something to make more complex music solo with a guitar. You might could get one used for $225 or so. Its got everything I want and nothing I don't in about as small a form factor as I can imagine for its feature set. The things it does that I really like: 2 separate loops/tracks operate the loops/tracks in parallel -- they can be layered on top of each other and made to fade in and out which is great for ambient type stuff operate the loops/tracks in serial -- you can record a verse progression on loop 1 and a chorus progression on loop 2 and switch back and forth in a live performance fade out your loops which I use a lot live stereo or mono extremely low latency studio quality sound midi clock sync clipping indicator to know when you are pushing it too much I like this better than the Boomerang3 (too big, no real midi sync) and the aeros loop studio (too expensive and complex with features I couldn't work into a live performance). If it seems too complicated from the video above, I might look at the Infinity 2, which is scaled down, cheaper and has a few less features and also less complexity. Its about half the price of the 3.
  5. We're fucking broken. I don't know what else to say. The shitheels in control have made politics so repugnant that no ethical or moral person would ever consider running for office. So we keep going to the polls and casting votes for shitheels, and surprise surprise -- things keep getting shittier and shittier.
  6. What I don't think people fully appreciate is that while yeah, there are some dumb fucking voters out there, there are a lot of voters who aren't dumb but love Trump. I know a few of these, and they have kind of given up all pretenses if they trust you. They think the federal government is fatally flawed and needs to be broken and rebuilt no matter the cost. They know completely well that Trump has some horrific traits competing for dominance -- narcissism, sociopathy, stupidity and criminality. They do not care. They view his hatchet-man governance as the opportunity to remake the federal government to be something from before the New Deal and all the progressive measures enacted in the last half of the 20th century (civil rights, gay marriage, etc...). That is their vision of a better America. And they don't sport swastikas tattoos or shaved heads. They are directors or VPs at companies whose names you would recognize in Austin, Dallas and Denver. They are some of the parents of the kids that your kids are friends with. You've sat next to them at little league games, maybe even laughed together at a (non-political) joke among the circle of dad's at the neighbor kid's birthday party.
  7. Takes South Austin's mom less than that.
  8. Peak Surly. Bravo.
  9. So funny how different areas are... different. In my part of rural Colorado, there were large amounts of MAGA/Trump stuff displayed everywhere in 2016 and 2020. Not nearly so much now. I still hope it means something.
  10. What's that?
  11. Yeah, that was quite the protest to stop the certification of the 2020 election. But worse than the protestors were the people who organized the whole event and incited people to riot in an attempt to stop the transfer of governance. Anyway, good on you for having those convictions, and I am sure they will help you make the appropriate decision of who to vote for in November given your core values.
  12. He's the capitol police officer that shot Ashlii Babbit.
  13. Dude, when Gronk gains sentience, we are all fucking doomed.
  14. So, you are a Michael Byrd fan, eh?
  15. Countdown to the estimable Mr P.Diddy running as a republican for New York's 13th congressional district.
  16. I wish Billy Duffy was my spirit animal.
  17. Thanks, a used Para might work at my price point. I've got an acoustic gig set up for Friday's Memorial Day through Labor Day, so putting together a minimal pedalboard for it, with Pigtronix Infinity 3 looper, a TC Helicon Mic Mechanic and some pre-amp pedal. Not much room for additional stuff, so ideally the preamp would have a reverb knob but I could perhaps add a mini reverb pedal if the preamp were small enough. The Nux Optima Air has the perfect feature set for me at a pretty cheap price, but I am not sure its worth a shit.
  18. Any recommendations on a pedal-based acoustic guitar preamp? The smaller the better?
  19. https://www.nme.com/news/music/robert-plant-and-david-gilmour-lend-support-to-steve-marriotts-children-in-battle-over-ai-music-with-estate-3755985 Robert Plant and David Gilmour have expressed their support for the children of Steve Marriott, who are currently in a battle with his estate over AI-generated music. The children of the late Humble Pie and Small Faces frontman are currently in a dispute with the singer’s estate to prevent the release of music made by artificial intelligence in his name.
  20. So what says the Surl on 12 strings? Acoustic or electric?
  21. Those duds wouldn't be complete without some Mexican pointy boots.
