never trust a fart
Some news about my current guitar "stable" and what I plan on doing in the future.
I'll first list off what I have and why I've not gone ahead and bought another guitar recently.
What I have: Two 1989 Squier II Stratocasters, Squier Affinity Stratocaster, Squier Classic Vibe '60s Jazzmaster, 1993 Fender American Stratocaster (currently in pieces, nonfunctional).
What I've been wanting to do for my next guitar is get something slightly more upscale. However, there are a few problems I keep encountering.
AITONE Phrase Loop AT07 guitar looper review and tutorial
Transparency notice: AITONE emailed and offered to send a looper pedal to me for free to review, which I accepted. Consider this a sponsored review.
Any time I accept a pedal for review, it has to offer something good that separates it from other like pedals. With the AT07, it offers are few good things I really like.
At the tail of this is my full video review, but here's a quick rundown of how it works and my thoughts on the AT07.
i beat the crap out of my keyboard
There was a time when I was all about mechanical PC keyboards. I stopped with all that nonsense once my hands started hurting from use of one of those. I would keep bottoming/"thudding" the keys. It did not matter what switch type I used. If the keyboard was mechanical, I would bottom the keys. Not good.
I switched back to regular PC keyboards, and yep, no more hand pain. But I had to find the right one, which I did.
chipotle has the worst chips i've ever tasted
For a while now I've been avoiding eating at Chipotle mainly due to it being complicated. That restaurant is one of those places where you have to know how to order before even going in there. Some say that Chipotle is basically Subway, but instead of sandwiches it's burritos, bowls and tacos. Eh... sort of.
I finally went to a Chipotle. And it sucked.
i'm very happy this printer type is still being made
Many moons ago, I got exposed to one of the best damned printers ever made, the HP LaserJet 4 Plus. People love this thing so much that they are STILL reconditioned and sold on eBay to this day, STILL have new toner cartridges manufactured for them, and STILL have repair kits and replacement parts made to fix them. That's the staying power of the HP LaserJet 4 Plus. It's that good even though it was made 30 years ago.
What made the HP LJ 4+ so good is that it just worked. Black-and-white printing only, reasonable print speed and rock-solid reliable. They were built for office use and cranked out print after print with no complaints.
But can you get this with a new printer now for the home?
