I was just on the Turkish coast and to my surprise, I found an ING atm. “Sweet, its my bank so I shouldn’t have any fees!” I said to my boat driver (who only speaks Turkish).

They charged me like 3%.

Nts.live Internet Radio made by music nerds and I love it

Well that one is a baritone (26.5" or 27" scale) but still pretty thin (about as thick as the typical strat) and ergonomic.

My other guitar, a 1960s teisco, is one of the lightest guitars I’ve ever owned:

I’m gonna modify this one though and put a tuneomatic on here, the intonation is quite terrible.

They also feel…worse? Jumbo frets, thick coats of polyurethane, cheap pickguards, plastic pickup covers, etc — yuck.

I’ve been buying weirdo vintage guitars (teisco, musima) and they feel way better in my hands. The pickups are usually pretty low output, yeah, but the cleans sound so so good.

And that quite a lot of Ukrainians support Israel and don’t see the similarities between their struggle and the Palestinian’s — I don’t get it.

E: and to the down voters, I am Ukrainian diaspora and lived in Kyiv until the war and visit regularly. I have these conversations frequently when I’m there.

This is called “double tap strike” and was a tactic used frequently during the American invasion of Iraq & Afghanistan. They learned from the best, unfortunately.

I think this is likely just some political theater to shut France up. They’ll find him guilty, and then sentence him to house arrest where he can relax in his beach side mansion (it’s very nice btw)

SS13 has a chef on the station who makes all sorts of food, but mostly pizzas and burgers. I don’t recommend eating their food though, it’s pretty likely it will be made of your coworkers.

District heating/cooling is a big one. I think NY is still using 1st gen technology which is kind of crazy in this day and age (also crazy it’s one of the few places in the US using DH). We’ve moved so far in DH that I can’t imagine why they’re still using steam. The newest generation networks operate just above ambient, so the fact they’re still using steam blows my mind.

I fucking love In the Loop, but it took me a few viewings to understand what the hell was going on. I should watch it again.

Oh a fellow tracker enjoyer! I really wanted to get the M8 but they’re a bit hard to come across in Europe so I went with the polyend tracker mini (and I have some mixed feelings about it, need to try the new firmware.) I also just got invited to buy the woovebox, so I might pull the trigger on that for more portable music fun.

I’ll check out those iems since I need some portable monitoring. My headphones aren’t handling my commute very well. How do you like the moondrops?

We call ours “cloud DevOps engineer”, heh.

Can you fucking not, Israel? I was just there and lebanon is having enough trouble as is (as usual).

I feel for you dude, the pizza should just be the fair price without having to dive into some stupid deal system. Just sell the pizza for the price of the damn pizza. The other guy sounds like a silly domino’s evangelical lmao. “I have dominos wisdom, hear my words!!”

Such a weird thing to defend their business practices, it’s not even quality pizza.

Sounds like you’re stressed from all those kids! Have you tried cycling? It’s a great outlet and stress relief

So just lazy then?

I live on the Dutch coast and still cycle despite constantly shit weather.

The Dutch do it… Rain or shine (mostly rain with crazy wind) with their cargo/kid bikes.

I was also a Google music enjoyer and also find the other streaming options pretty crappy. I’ve actually moved over to more curated options like internet radio for when I’m not in the mood for anything specific. Shout-out to NTS, I love you.

Is this the norm for smart watches? I just bought my first one, a Redmi watch 3 active, 6 days ago and still haven’t charged it yet (just got to 18%.)

There’s no way I’d put up with another device that I have to charge every day.
