Damn that's pretty cool. Wonder how their ethical committee responded. Does it affect the drunkenness?

Seriously, what the f*** is keeping Donald Trump in this presidential race? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

I feel like a common trend is that if people generally showed more compassion for others, quite a bit would much better already. I mean for instance with vaccines, , not immediately vilifying people for not wanting the bacon, but trying to understand why. Also on the other side, antivaxxers trying to not just get pissed but trying to understand the other side. Not sure if I'm now thinking "understanding" or "compassion", but i guess the later would be a first step to not just giving up on people, instead of getting pissed or writing them off like stupid.

But lol not gonna lie that's hard.

To be fair, the neuroscience terminology used is pretty surface level, one wikipedia stroll would have done it.

Definitely, our 2nd cat really changed when the first passed on. Much more quiet and really affectionate to us specifically.

You have 15$. How would you spend it so that you'll be the happiest you can be for 15$ ? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] DozensOfDonner@mander.xyz 1 points 3 months ago

Damn that's pretty insane. I think normally they are 4.99 euro over here and that's already a lot imo. To be honest I only ever buy them when there is a discount or something.

Anyone happen to fit Axis longboard pedals in a Hardcase HNDBP double pedal case? (mander.xyz)
 

As the title says, looking for a case for my Axis Pedals. Hardcase hasn't dissapointed me on other cases, and I figures this one might be usefull for potential other future pedals. Anyone ever fit this pedal in this case?

Guitar strings suddenyl start touching fretboard? (mander.xyz)
 

Hey guys, i've got a weird thing that I might have fucked up a bit, but any tips are welcome.

I've got an old cheap guitar which I though I'd improve a bit with some other pickups I had. Installed the pickups, also got some new strings. So weirdly enough, for some reason the new strings touched the first few frets. I could adjust this at the bridge but it really needed to be lifted a lot, which screws up the action in my opinion. Didn't screw with any other part of the guitar besides pickup, the only reason I could imagine was that the neck was warped from sitting around without strings for a bit (but it wasn't even that long I believe? But maybe cheap guitar = cheap materials?).

The neck doesn't seem warped to the eye, but have to admit that I'm starting to doubt the straightness of my references for straightness. It feels as if the neck is ever so slightly crooked on the body (like leaning forward a bit), but again I can't imagine this suddenly happening when changing the pickups?

I know some might say "just take it to the shop" but I like DIYing and I really want to learn more about this stuff, and especially what the hell is going on. Anyone got any thoughts on this?

(Could post some pictures but on pictures nothing really stands out).

Just tried out those pedal-triggers (On Triggers), anyone experience in cable routing? (mander.xyz)
 

(Damn wasn't easy to find this community, still have to get the hang of lemmy. Great to have found you guys)

Hey guys, just bought a couple of On Triggers for the kick, those things you paste under your footboards of your pedals and align with the position when the beater hits the head. Pretty interesting concept, seems to work nicely on my e-kit with just using a Y- cable to put both triggers in one trigger input.

Moving to my acoustic kit, however, I use an Alesis Samplepad for samples and kick triggers. The same configuration, both triggers via a Y-splitter in the kick input makes one sound much softer. Sensitivity settings don't help much.

Interstingly, when using a very small mixer with just both triggers in a line-in and the main out towards the trigger input on the Samplepad seems to work perfectly. But damn, lot of messy cable nonsense and it doesn't feel like the best solution.

Anyone know a good way to work on this? Preferably without buying a new Samplepad/Module with more inputs, that's my plan B :')
