Carlisle cathedral wins best stained glass window vote in c/goodnewseveryone@piefed.social
[–] PennyRoyal@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago

It’s kind of private, but the stained glass in the chapel at Compton House is mind-blowing. It’s only a small chapel, but the level of detail is similar scale to the embossing on a 5p or whatever. It’s mental

There’s a ton of fox and stag hounds in Devon that get away with shit all the time, he’s welcome to come and get in their way too

A spaceshed I’d think, which sounds pretty expensive

David Stern: Epstein's source who sat next to the queen, sent him lewd messages and brokered deals in c/uk_politics@feddit.uk

The fact that this isn’t front page news shows how wildly our press has been blinkered in the last decade or two

Brilliant film, one of the ones I quote most often

Palestine Action activists found not guilty over Elbit factory break-in in c/uk_politics@feddit.uk
[–] PennyRoyal@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Specifically, the jury found that their plea of not guilty was based on the fact that they were preventing a greater harm by their actions to be right

Maybe they should try macrodosing

Mac software suggestions (sh.itjust.works)
 

So, I’ve been trying to find a specific bit of Mac software for a while, and keep coming up blank (any site suggestions?). It’s a pretty common program, and I can find no end of the most recent windows versions, but if there is any for Mac they’re about 10 generations behind, and hardly seeded. I’ve trawled the megathread, to no avail. Any suggestions on where to look?

Barbarian Hermit - The Battle of Kompromat (2025) (open.spotify.com)
 

As is often the case with me, I don’t know what you’d really call this, but there are definite big fat sludgy doomy characteristics in there. This album is one of my favourites recently, and one of the ones I listen to in its entirety.

Gain staging question (sh.itjust.works)
 

So I have a weird thing going on with my pedal board. First, my signal chain - Guitar into Bogner Harlow (light compression, always on) -> 4 channel switcher -> TC Mimiq (splits signal)

SW Ch 1 - TC Nether sub octaver SW Ch 2 - DOD Carcosa fuzz SW Ch 3 -Digitech Bad Monkey SW Ch 4 - Joyo Ultimate Drive (OCD clone)

Mimiq L out -> modded Jet City 22w head -> passive attenuator -> old Laney 2x12” cab (dark as all hell, sounds awesome)

Mimiq R out -> reverb/delay/trem -> Laney Cub 10” 15w input (hemp cone, different valves, again sounds awesome, cleans up well)

I’ve spent a while balancing everything, getting the gains to all play nicely, except… the Ultimate Drive for some reason is really quiet through the Jet City. The Carcosa fuzz sounds brutal through both amps, but really drives the Jet City hard. I switch to the UD, and the volume of the Laney stays pretty high, but the Jet City shuts right up. I’ve fiddled every way I can think of, to no avail. The UD is a loud pedal, with huge amounts of volume and gain on tap, but it’s just not doing much for the JC amp. Any ideas?

Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition (www.nhm.ac.uk)
 

I’m very much looking forward to going to this again, past years have been jaw-dropping

Beast - Stormbringer (open.spotify.com)
 

Fuck knows if this counts as thrash, heavy metal, or death, but whatever it is, it absolutely rocks.

Truth be told, the vocals are a bit heavier than I generally lean towards, but the riffs are top notch. Anyone have any suggestions that sound like this, but with a bit more singing thrown in?

Their own kind of nonsense they call Doom-Wap, they make a quite pleasing racket. One of my favourite newly-discovered bands of late

Gangs often get chased across the high plains by a posse, no?

Site for workshop/technical manuals? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Looking for a few workshop manuals, is there anywhere that generally has a good selection?

Recommend me a simple hub (sh.itjust.works)
 

Hey all. I’ve been looking for a small, basic USB-C hub with pass through power. Like literally just 4 USB-C ports, a short cable and a USB-C power in. No extra nonsense, just a minimal way to connect an SSD, a monitor, and power to my deck, and charge a peripheral if necessary. It seems unreasonably hard to find! Any suggestions?
