I will say they could have included the graphic on the sheets in the box, instead there was a QR code that went to not even the instructions for this specific product, but a general page with other links to all the categories of products.

😅 you can see why locking tuners are such a good gift!

 

This guy! Baroness and the Juniors gave me a set of GraphTech Ratio tuners for the Epi 335 for Father's Day. Finally had a moment to install them. I didn't see the numbering on them until I was almost done installing them. So I had to look up the manual to see where they're supposed to go. They were all in the wrong spot.

 

Congratulations to the New England Free Jacks for their championship win. The only team in league history to win 3 championships. The only team in USA major sports to win 3 consecutive titles in over 20 years (according to the MLR posts).

What is the other sides' argument for why we SHOULD have billionaires?

They think they'll get a chance to bootstrap themselves into being one.

Sound like you need to look at artists in your are that do lettering, then! If your son has any particular hobbies or interests, incorporating some aspects of that around the lettering could be a nice touch.

Hard to give anonymous suggestions for something so personal and permanent. Since you already have tattoos you know how you tolerate the process. I would expect spine and collar have similar skin thickness and pain level. Only you can decide on full name vs initials. I think pain tolerance would be a big factor for that choice. Letter style? Black/Grayscale/Color? Do you need to be able to hide it under work clothes?

That's just fuckin awesome.

Well, congrats to the Jacks on being the league's first dynasty

Good match so far. Some red calls that will for sure be discussed. Need a little more.oomph from the Cats, though.

[–] baronvonj@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Super excited for the match today. My Cats are finally playing for the shield. Having never beaten the Jacks before, we're definitely the underdogs.

 

I hadn't seen anything about this anywhere. Looks like it's the Bogner Electronics ST-Pro. A pre-wired pick-guard with a set of programmable pickups, selector, and volume/tone/mode knobs. My opinion was the Strat and Les Paul modes sounded closer to their respective originals than did the Tele or hollowbody modes.

 

Going for a 3-peat we have the Eastern Conference champs the New England Free Jacks for the home team, and making their first appearance in the finals are the Western Conference champs the Houston SaberCats for the away team.

The final will be at Centreville Bank Stadium in Pawtucket, Rhode Island on Saturday, June 28th, at 2:00 PM EDT. Broadcast on ESPN2 and streamed live on ESPN+.

If you're there, check out the ML Fan Fest pre-game show at The Guild. Festivities being at 9:00 AM EDT with live DJ, food trucks, games, some Rugby 101 sessions, and merch booths.

 

The SaberCats propelled themselves into the Major League Rugby championship finals against the New England Free Jacks next Saturday in Rhode Island at Centreville Bank Stadium.

While the job isn’t finished, the Shield is attainable for the SaberCats after defeating Utah. One more win is what the SaberCats need to be champions for the first time in franchise history.

They’ve already become the most successful team in SaberCats history by winning their first two playoff matches over the past week.

Houston SaberCats have kept the streak alive with playoff wins against RFCLA and Utah Warriors to claim the Western Conference title.

 

Baroness got me the Two Kings kit from Stew Mac. Just finished inventory of the resistors, diodes, capacitors, etc. I'm not really sure how to measure diodes or capacitors with a multimeter. I don't even have a farad option on it.

With 28 of the 32 players being current MLR players, with every team except RFCLA represented, I'm excited to see how we fare.

Scott Lawrence has selected 32 players in his Senior Men’s Eagles squad for the July test window. The USA will face off against Belgium in Charlotte on July 5, Spain at the same venue on July 12, and England in the nation’s capital on July 19. Qualification for the 2027 World Cup follows with the Eagles opening their Pacific Nations Cup campaign against Canada in Calgary on August 22.

The MLR is heavily represented here with only 4 of the 32 players not being in the league. Only RFCLA are missing in the national squad.

 

Once it was over, a fun and brief celebration could begin for the Houston SaberCats. They put an exclamation point on another winning regular season, heading into the playoffs with a 10-6 record and earned the second seed in the Western Conference division.

They earned the right to host a home playoff game next Sunday night against Rugby Football Club Los Angeles as they finished with three more points overall.

This is our 4th consecutive year to make an appearance in the playoffs, all of them at home, still looking for that first playoff win though.
