  8. So after figuring out which bits to remove, I set about building it. I first tried laying it out on a single one of my custom #protoboards I posted about before. It gets very dense, and would require cutting / splitting a whole lot more of the 6-hole #pad #strips than I really wanted to do. So I built it on two boards, using the same modular connection between them that I use for the rest of my effects boards.

    Even the original Boss pedal used 2 separate boards, so I don't feel too badly about it.

    Anyway... it took a while to fiddle with the layouts to get something I like, then document my parts placement, remove all the parts and start re-populating and #soldering them into place. But I got that done this evening.

    I did a little meter #probing of the results to find any obvious missing connections or such, and fixed a couple. Then I plugged in my guitar, and ...

    It #worked, perfectly, the first time. I believe that's the first time any of my effects have not required any #debugging at all. I'm #chuffed .

    And it sounds *fantastic*.

    The originally-called-for #transistors and #diodes are mostly #obsolete and hard to find. I dug through datasheets to find ones I thought would (a) be acceptable substitutes, and (b) I already had in my parts bins. Frankly, given the nature of the effect, I doubt the selections are too critical, but I'll include what I used for completeness, in case anyone else wants to make one of these.

  10. Today was a GREAT day! I didn’t #worked, did some time to do #gardening, played my #guitar for a couple hours, went with the kids to have #pizza, bought some #clothes, then went to #GuitarCenter to play guitars I can afford but won’t get because I’m a “responsible” #adult, then took the kids to #petsmart to see animals

    Wrapping up with drinking a glass of my favorite #wine while doing dishes and waiting for my wife to get the kids to sleep so we can eat chips while watching #tv

    Thank you #LORD

  16. I'll just let these #pictures speak for themselves.

    I'll start adding #alttext soon for those of you who cannot see very well as someone recommended that.

    I am exhausted and #learned a ton.

    Set a lot up. Wrote a lot of things. Talk to many people.

    It's rare when someone with #tourettes doesn't have much to say, and that's amazing, because I'm at #peace and feel I #worked more today than I have in a decade.

    Oh damn, I did have things to say!

  18. Attorneys working with ClassAction.org are looking into whether #classaction #lawsuits can be filed on behalf of #employees whose #hourlyrates may have been #illegallyreduced when they #worked #overtimehours.

    Federal and state #laborlaws mandate that an #employee’s #overtime #rate must be at least one-and-a-half times their regular #payrate.

  20. There's so much more to it than this. I #worked in a #job where they told you to get up & #walk around #hourly, provided #mentalhealth #people & had #volunteers to #talk to if you were #bullied & more. All of it #boxticking as #workloads were too heavy to take 5 mins each hour, the #mental #health #team shared #data on us & the #bullying #reports were never written. #Employers provide things but counter it with their #dictatorial #behaviours. #covid was ignored. theguardian.com/society/2024/o #sickness

  21. “…#Conservatives have taken to referring to #DEI as ‘didn’t earn it.’ But to the extent that the candidates are running on #unearned #advantages related to personal bio, this better describes #Trump & #JDVance than it does #Harris, who #worked her way up from local to state to federal office over the course of decades.

    “Trump was born a #multimillionaire who drove one business after another into the ground, & his reputation as a brilliant businessman is largely due to him playing one on TV.

  23. I #worked out yesterday, and my #muscles ain't sore at all. 🤔 Maybe I need to amp it #up

    But I'll do this slowly, no need to haste.

    I also should start to jog again. 🏃

  25. what's going on in the #congo since there's also a #genocide happening over there as well:

    to sum it up, #people in the congo are literally being #worked as #slaves to mine for this material called coltan, which is very valuable as its used for things like phones, laptops, just electronics in general. Congo is the number 1 producer for this material and the places behind this genocide is #America, #Britain, #France, and #Israel, wow what an absolute shocker. The worst places probably to ever exist benefit from a genocide. These places are funding #Rwanda and #Uganda military groups, to go into the Congo and kill MILLIONS of people. This has also been going on for YEARS. Many women have been SA'd and men are forced to #work in INHUMAN conditions, resulting in their death and the #colonizers are absolutely benefitting from this. 6 MILLION people have been killed and half of them are literally kids. Many of the Congolese people have also been displaced.

    Please speak out about and raise your voice

  27. But that's when I learned about the new-new kind of motor that (at least my) furnaces use.

    They call it an "#ECM" motor, but that is just an acronym for Electronically #Commutated Motor, which just means it doesn't have motor #brushes - just like a DC #brushless motor.

    What they actually are is #fiendishly more #complicated. And so, of course, they're #expensive.

    I paid about $1300 to replace it. I took the old one #apart to figure out how it #worked and why it's so expensive.

  29. Open Source Is Powered By Stochastic Confidence — Webmink In Draft

    What has driven open source to become part of 75% of all software and drive nearly €100 bn of GDP in Europe?
    👉 Reuse, yes. But that was always possible.
    👉 Collaboration, definitely. But repositories existed for years before open source was coined in 1998.
    👉 /The software freedom philosophy. Absolutely, but that went 15 years without triggering a software revolution.

    I suggest it's something less measurable and observable — #developer #confidence — and that the effects involved are #stochastic, not deterministic

    the.webm.ink/open-source-is-po

    The answer to #why #open #source #worked ultimately is a brew of factors that is hard to acknowledge for those with direct-causal minds – 👉 consensus on licenses,
    👉 confidence about IPR grants,
    👉 upstream contribution enablement and more.

    None of these factors alone is sufficient to trigger the network effect of open source development, reuse and collaboration. Neither is any factor alone sufficient to stop the effect if removed.

    Rather, it is a matter of moving members of the fourth sector from a fog of #uncertainty to a point where they are #confident to #reuse, #improve, #contribute and #innovate

  31. "#Workers in the #US have an estimated $50bn-plus #stolen from them every year, according to the #Economic #Policy #Institute, surpassing all #robberies, #burglaries and motor vehicle #thefts #combined. The majority of these stolen #wages are never recovered by workers.

    Between 2017 to 2020, $3.24bn in stolen wages were recovered by the US Department of Labor, state labor departments and attorney generals, and through class- and collective-action litigation.

    #Wage theft disproportionately affects lower-wage workers, women, people of color, and immigrant workers, and negatively affects local #economies and #tax #revenues.

    There are numerous forms of wage theft, from #employers not #compensating workers for time #worked, #violating minimum #wage and #overtime #laws, misclassifying #employees as independent #contractors, not providing #legally required meal breaks, confiscating worker tips, or illegally taking #deductions from worker wages."

  33. "you're just never going to have a realistic #analysis of #capitalist #food #production until you really process that #farm #owners are not the #working #class, the #people who #work on those farms are. this should be #evident in the term "#factory farm" drawing a straightforward #comparison with #factories (owned by #capitalists, #worked in by #workers), but many people still have this #idea that any opposition to these large #companies is inherently opposition to the #individual workers who are #exploited there.

    when there are so many people who understand that criticizing #Amazon is not being against people who work in #warehouses, but believe that criticizing Cargill #Meat Solutions is harming poor workers, idk what to say except you are not immune to #propaganda"
