I didn’t even know these sorts of mini racks existed. now I’m going to have to get one for all my half sized preamps if they’ll fit. That would solve like half the problems with my studio room and may help bring back some of my spark for making music.
I have no recs. Just want to say I’m so excited to see this. I can probably build an audio patch panel.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•what are good in-person activities for making friends?
2·8 months agoOh, and I just read your username. We’ve played the White Oak Music Hall if your name is a reference to Houston. Used to play Acadia back when it was open.

2·8 months agoOh trivia is great as well! There are a few other things depending on inclination. Some of the local joints here do paint and sip, line dancing, salsa dancing, wine pairing potlucks, and a bunch of other activities. If you add in breweries or distilleries you can find even more stuff.
But I say that knowing bars aren’t for everyone for a variety of reasons. Not every area has breweries and distilleries.
And yeah, karaoke is a different level of outgoing. I enjoy it in small doses and will fill in as the KDJ if someone needs me to, but doing that every week (or 3 times a week like some of these folks) is a bit much for me, and that’s coming from a dude who has a hobby of playing music in bars.

2·8 months agoI do like local live music shows for that if you’re into local music, especially if you hit up the same venue every week for a bit. You’ll meet the other regulars.
A buddy of mine goes to karaoke every week, rain or shine. He moved to a new place a few years ago and within a couple of months he already had a group that he could hang out with elsewhere.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If americans come to germany and act like german public Transport is the best, how frickin bad is american public Transport?
29·8 months agoA big city not in the South. Houston and Dallas are #4 and #9. There’s public transit but it fucking sucks both places.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the worst tasting meats you've had that aren't chicken, beef, pork, or lamb?
4·8 months agoHear me out. Have you tried them grilled in garlic butter with a little sprinkle of parmesan?
If it’s not for you then you won’t get any hate from me. I just wanted to throw that out there.

5·8 months agoI can’t speak to crocodile, but I have eaten a lot of gator. If it’s not prepared properly it goes from tasting like water chicken to tasting like swamp thang.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What task would you excel in if you lived in the Stone Age?
1·11 months agoI’m pretty ok at knapping flint and I’m not a terrible hunter. I’m also usually in poor health.
So I’d probably die as a baby.

There used to be a company that sold grind plates you could add to your shoes but it looks like their website is defunct.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What hobbies do you practice that is other people's professions?
5·1 year agoI have a bunch of hobbies but the two that I’m currently concentrating on are building guitars and working on motorcycles.
There are plenty of people who build or customize guitars for a living. I have sold exactly one that I built from scratch and that was probably 15 years ago.
I’m resurrecting a barn find motorcycle that I’ll sell (or I’ll sell one of mine to keep this, I haven’t decided), but I’m not going to make any money on it because it’s not sought after. I’m doing it for love. I’ll break even.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If you could rearrange the days in a week, what would your ideal month look like.
3·1 year agoThat would be a nightmare for tattoo shops.
(For those that don’t know, many tattoo shops have Friday 13th deals with specific flash you can get for multiples of $13 depending on complexity. The quality ones have new cute Friday 13th flash a couple of times a year and lines around the block.)

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are the rules of using the toilet in school in different countries?
5·1 year agoAlso USA. My teachers ran the gamut from not letting anyone to treating us like adults. My school was VERY white with only a handful of black kids across all of high school. One of the teachers was well known for never letting the black kids go until one of them went and peed in his trash can to prove a point.
The ones who treated us like adults got treated with the most respect. Weird how that works.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Swappiness is set to 10 and the swap usage is still high
7·1 year agoI’ve had to explain to three different people that they’re not getting a production window on Christmas Eve. I’m the only person in the office from the day after Christmas until January 2.


Like all the incredibly salacious but unsubstantiated docs from when he was running for or already president that were included in this dump. Poison the well so none of it gets taken for truth.
