Completely agree. Populists nonsense. Local funding will come from, where? We already have the recently passed Annual Inflation Adjustment to Homestead Exemption Value and the Save Our Homes Portability Benefit, which has been around for more than 20 years. .

Added more DPZ

GDP includes public and private businesses. Also, does the Wilshire include foreign businesses?

One of my neighbors has a welding and metal fabrication shop attached to his house. Dude's been retired for decades and still pumps out projects with this side hustle. Boat trailers and all kinds of custom marine accessories.

You'd expect that over the past week but today?

You should buy a synthesizer, but for the love of whatever god(s) you pray to, do NOT get into modular. I recommend a used Digitakt groove box and a set of speakers / PA's with good bass response. If that gets you revved up, you are doomed to a lifetime of GAS (gear acquisition syndrome).

This is for any other musicians (hobbyists and pro's alike). Pilz has produced Bad Gear reviews on damn near every modern and vintage piece of pro audio gear that exists. His videos are comprehensive and hilarious. Be prepared for a lot of pause / play if you want to catch the frequent meme clips (I pause for every damn one and occasionally steal screenshots). I posted a handful of the best screen grabs below (from this video) so you can soak up the brilliance of Pilz without ever having to hit the spacebar. This is his latest drop. There are definitely other more appropriate forums for this type of material and I won't spam up CoBF with too much. I just thought that there may be a few other living room legends here who aggravate the shit out of their SO's by cluttering up the living room and being noisy at home. Useful forums: https://www.elektronauts.com https://www.modwiggler.com/forum/ https://gearspace.com/board/ https://forums.irealpro.com and of course reddit has a bunch of different subs. Don't let the embarrassment of GAS stop you from buying a fun new pedal, box or board. Recycle often on FeeBay and/or Reverb. FINI?

I've been averaging up on Novo Nordisk while simultaneously averaging down.

Bonus pronunciation(s): Atchafalaya (in the fog) and Natchitoches (Nakadish)

A little more NVO.

Yes. I'll be doing this mostly in non-taxable. That's where the biggest portion of my shares are, including 3/4 of the original 2016 purchase. The shares I bought today are in taxable and I'm hoping to sell off higher basis shares and slowly shrink the position size down a bit in this account. edit: balls are frequently mistaken for lack of brains

Added a little NVO because I'm a retard who loves holding bags.

You be the tuba, I'll be the gong. https://theonion.com/the-onions-exclusive-interview-with-sabrina-carpenter/

Replaced some NVO that I sold last month.

These are the monsters of modern analog synthesizers. I can't justify buying one but for those with money to burn. Resale on these is strong and probably will be for decades to come. https://sequential.com/modern-analog/prophet-6/ https://sequential.com/product/prophet-5/

Dammit, at least I got a little good eBay metals action.

Tuning is for sure an analog problem, but it can also be exploited by detuning a pair of oscillators against each other to get interesting sounds. Another advantage of digital is that you can patch complex modulations and store them as presets. A good analog filter is hard to beat. There are a few boards out there that combine digital with one or more analog filters. The Arturia Minifreak is one that I tried. It lasted about a year before I got tired of having to look at post-it notes for all the menu diving. The analog filter wasn't particularly wide or smooth either. It's a fun hobby and keeps the mind active with lots of abstract concepts to grok.

GTFO!!! That's fabulous!!!!! I make do with the Chick Corea Rhodes pack loaded onto my MOXF. I've been eyeing an Ashtun Sound Machines Hydrasynth which uses digital oscillators and filters with a ton of different algorithms for each. Patching modulation sources to destinations is a breeze, unlike the old wired CV patching days. The Hydrasynth also has CV outs and my Hypno video synth can take CV input for glitching video. I've tried a few different synths over the past years, including a Moog Mavis (analog) for a short period that I got primarily to learn analog sound design. Wound up recycling them all on Reverb or FeeBay. The Electron boxes are hard to beat for my purposes. Great sounds and the workflow is unparalleled. We don't need no stinking drummer.

Nice! Lot's of CV inputs and outputs and old school analog goodness. This one sold on eBay last December for $14,000.
