Who considers Patrick a trusted source of information? He’s basically doing comedy news with a focus on finance. Entertaining, interesting, but not like a full-on serious reporter.

It’s surprisingly calming to listen to Patrick cathartically vent, after what must’ve been a stressful education and career in finance.

Keep Lemmy small. Make the influence of conversation here uninteresting.

I’m doing my part!

The artist seems to be Chas Fagan: https://triblive.com/local/westmoreland/behind-the-art-fort-ligonier-work-depicts-george-washingtons-friendly-fire-incident/

That’s an article from 1950, perhaps not so relevant anymore today.

Not to say socialism isn’t a strong influence in many European countries, though I wouldn’t go so far as to call a European country as being primarily economically and politically “socialist”. Democratic socialism / Social democratic maybe, but that is much more of a centrist set of policies than the outright goal of a workers-owning-the-means-of-production economy. Just my 2c.

I’m pretty sure that’s not how it works on Lemmy. For some reason “block” here is really what “mute” is everywhere else on fedi.

Not the onion indeed

Guess I won’t meet the minimum requirements then. Oh well. Plenty of other games on my backlog.

Pretty much anything from the Hitman games sountracks. Mostly Contracts or Blood Money.

Hollow Knight 112% completion is what I’m most proud of. It was hard!

The best free one is probably Pitchproof. It’s alright but it doesn’t handle chords well. I gave up using pitch shifting and got another guitar and put thick strings on it for low tunings.

Killer Bean? What year is it!?

The DSL40 sounds very appealing indeed, and not too pricey. I’ll go around and look for it at the local guitar store. I’ve also frequently seen those Katanas mentioned above which I’ll have to try. Thanks.

Thanks. Hoping to figure this out around $500. I don’t need loads of power so that should help the budget.

I don’t have experience with amp modellers in the FX loop. This works differently from multi-fx pedals with preamp simulations? I plug my guitar into my GT-1, which goes into the instrument input of my amp (a Rumble 100). No matter what I tweak with this setup, I fail to get it to sound believably “classic rock” so far.

Ah yes I should’ve specified. It’s a Rumble 100. Yeah, that’s a bass amp as I was primarily playing bass when I bought it. It does sound surprisingly excellent when I play clean-ish guitar through it, but with the GT-1 I can’t quite get a satisfying overdrive tone, no matter what pre-amp simulation I select on the GT1. With the amp set to clean, 0 gain. The master volume is plenty to make it loud. But yeah, I just can’t get this combination to reproduce what I’m looking for.

Perhaps it’s the speaker cone itself which is holding it back. I hadn’t considered that yet. Thanks.
