Good point, possibly - I haven't set one up before (new house has a wider range to cover) so I threw it in the diagram and didn't think further. I'll fix it up :)

This is awesome, I didn't know there were game server managers. I definitely see the point as I did some ugly file hacking a few times. I'll check out both Crafty Controller and Pterodactyl!

I've used Ansible for other stuff but never thought about it for server config, definitely going to figure that out too, been bitten there before as well.

Thank you!

I do! I am hosting HAOS as one of my VMs, I love it. I'm planning an upgrade to have a wall mounted tablet with the dashboard this time.

That's a good point - I had Hue first, then got a ZigBee stick to add later devices, but left Hue alone because 'not broken/don't fix' - but this time, I would like to ditch the Hue hub and set up everything on the proper ZigBee network. Thanks for reminding me!

Several things go into string setup and buzz

  • truss rod
  • fret leveling
  • nut
  • neck angle
  • bridge height

If it's a new problem, truss rod is probably the most likely to have changed recently (wood moves), followed by fret wear.

If this guitar has always done this, it could be anything in its setup. Depending on how bad it is, it could even be intentional, the low strings are more likely to buzz and some folks are ok with it on an electric in order to get lower action on all the strings.

It's unlikely to be (only) your nut though - once you fret a string, the nut is removed from the equation, so it can't be the source of 2nd fret buzz (edit: any fretted buzz).

If you want to fully diagnose it rather than guess& check, you'd want a long straight-edge to check the neck straightness, a short straight-edge to check for unlevel frets (you can get a specially designed one called a fret rocker), and any small thing like a credit card to 'measure' your string action height at various frets.

Fixing the truss rod is a good repair to do anyway*, though. Hope this helps!

I'm pretty far removed from A's fandom, but this makes me feel a little sad. Probably just nostalgia from the days I followed baseball more as a young'un

We did! It was amazing and we meant to go back on our own time for spring migration, but work didn't allow it unfortunately.

Have you been there also?

Haha I know what you mean, I have a foster-fail that is 5 now, and she's just not a snuggly cat and generally aggressive. I would have worried about her going to a shelter for adoption by the masses, so I kept her and give her the very distant love that she deserves 😅

Thanks for the link! We don't, but it would be awesome if we could somehow make it work as we also heard about a couple in South American countries that looked awesome. We were wondering if we could just kind of shuffle along following the finger pointing 😂

I'm in the southeast US - last year we made it over to both the Black Belt festival in central Alabama, and also for the Alabama Coastal Birdfest in the Mobile area

That's awesome. Thanks so much for sharing!

Hey, welcome!

Thanks for sharing, this is awesome. I've never heard about making stuff from metal dust, what kind of process does that take?

Also what pickups are those? The covers on them look great.

We are even federating content between posts now 🙂 Amazing stuff
