retro done right - cool retro term
Retro where computer stuff is concerned is usually not something I'm into. If the whatever-it-is can't serve any useful purpose, be it software or hardware, I just don't see the point.
Every so often, I find something that has all the cool retro nostalgia and can actually be used for real computery things. This is one of them.
squier bass out, yamaha trbx174ew in
Well, that didn't last long. I returned the Squier Precision Bass PJ because it had an unfixable problem. However, I should be very clear that it was only unfixable to that very specific bass and certainly not for all of them.
What I'm about to describe is actually something that can happen to any new bass. There are a few fixes you can try, and I'll talk about that, but if the fixes don't work, you have to get another bass.
i bought a squier precision pj bass
I needed a bass guitar, and this one fit the bill, so I bought it.
Does this mean I got rid of a guitar to get it?
Yes.
good to know: car air filter sets exist
Recently, I had an oil change done for my car. Of course, the shop I went to tried to get me to waste money on air filters. Yes, plural. One for the air box in the engine bay and the other for the cabin. The shop said they were dirty. I didn't believe them.
A few days later, I inspected the filters myself. Turns out the shop was right and they were dirty. Since filters are easy to change, I did it myself...
the gross 1990s
This is another reminder to people who grew up in the 1990s that some things about it were just plain stupid.
I remember the '90s. From my mid-teens to mid-20s, I experienced that whole decade and all the dumb stuff that came along with it.
Something that happened with toys, video games and cartoons was a huge uptick in toilet humor.
