    I wish I still had that big red bumper sticker on my car. RIP to an original.

    So DJ AM is dead, the guitarist is dead, shifty is dead, and the…. drummer who was already like a thousand years old in 1999 and played with Nat King Cole as a child is still alive.

    possibly the greatest diagetic music in the history of film

    Saw this last year and damn, makes todays new unsurprising obviously these guys were not a Very Serious artist, but sometimes there is a song for its time.

    Really not the right thread for this as this is country twinged indie/pop rock rather than Americana. But still, digging Ratboys

    I would not be able to resist the temptation to just order the team to add a “t” to his username

    Merger and reorg happening at work, I’m going to go ahead and get rolling. A saw a post for a really interesting position yesterday. Searched on LinkedIn for “companyname” + “jobtitle”, found a post with a link to the job from talent acquisition and then found another post from an engineering manager promoting. DM’d the manager with a quick “this seems really cool, here are some things from my career that it reminds me of, I find this stuff very exciting and would love to talk more and see if I can help your team” blah blah blah, I had an interview lined up by the end of the day. I’ve never been super comfortable just reaching out and connecting with recruiters, which I guess I’ll get over but this feels like a good hack. I often see hiring managers post about open positions with an invitation to connect.

    I have a tortilla press, bigass cast iron thing. Yeah it doesn't work for flour tortillas, you have to roll them out. I think it works on those tortilla making machines at... Taco Cabana or whatever because the press is also the cooking element. Mine also don't really shrink up too much when i cook them. The first few batches I made that was a big problem. The change I made that i've attributed the difference to is following the "mix the dough until you can stick your finger in and pull it back out clean" advice. Another thing that may have an effect is letting the dough balls sit for longer. I made and balled up the dough yesterday at about 1 and then cooked them at 9:30 (which was entirely driven by kid bedtimes, but I let them rest for a while these days). Another thing I started doing was spray the balls with oil before covering them with plastic.

    I think I have a pair in my string drawer, but I haven’t tried them yet. Effective marketing.

    Lone Star Special strat has to rank at or near the top of non-standard strat models.
  19. Celery Man
    Someone else here has one of those, right? Supposed to be great.

    man one of the all time greatest "gigs" of my life was when I was 13 years old, I had my strat and one of those little battery powered Vox AC1 amps and my friend had his pearl export series drum kit and somehow we were signed up to man the salvation army Christmas donation bucket outside of Best Buy. Fuck them bells, drums and guitar. I have no idea what we even played but we probably raised $27. We later formed our first couple of bands together. He went off to study music in college and then conservatory and lets see what weird shit he's up to now

    The original title in Swedish always strikes me as so awesome, and I may have only noticed it the first time when I was watching that movie with subtitles. "Men Who Hate Women". I should go watch these again. I remember feeling like the casting in this movie for both Salandar and Blomkvist felt more real. Or maybe, Rooney Mara got sufficiently weird as Lisbet to pass but Daniel Craig was still a bit too Daniel Craig for the chain smoking beaten down disgraced journalist.

    yeah they were good. it's been a million years - the books were really popular in about 2009, that was right around when Netflix started doing "Instant Watch" in addition to DVD by mail, and in addition to every weird documentary ever the swedish Girl with the Dragon Tattoo movies were on there. The actress who plays Lisbet is really great. I also can't believe they never managed to make the rest of those movies with Mara. I think they got stalled somehow and then made the second one with... the woman from the Crown? and it sucked? Would have loved to see that trilogy completed.

    you could accomplish the same result for a fraction of the cost by returning mailto:derka for every request

    the conventional wisdom is that the d28 is the choice for clarity, while the hd28 has a bit more complexity
  25. Celery Man
    Also just cause I have them - hd28 and d41 side by side. They are highly similar guitars, sonically - I love them both, it is silly that I have them both.
