Puttaneska

Yes, I think the US pint is 16 Oz (2 cups), whereas the UK pint is 20 Oz (4 gills).

Yes, that shouldn’t be too bad.

I went nuts and did humbucker coil splits, out of phase and serial (on an HH with 2 vols & 2 tones). The coil split doesn’t really sound all that much like single coil to me. Just a bit quieter. The series switching sounds good (fuller, brighter?) If you use crocodile clips, or temporary connectors (e.g. Wago clips) you might be able to try different re-wire options before committing to soldering.

I used Bourne https://www.bourns.com/docs/product-datasheets/PDB183-GTR.pdf which look similar to yours. The terminal pins were pretty small and hard to work with. The CTS ones are supposed to be easier, but I don’t think that they do push-push.

Have fun

Good idea to go for push-push over push pull. I have them on different guitars and push-push is quicker and easier.

I haven’t found any manufacturers that do push-push with triple pole double throw, though.

I also put a free-way pup selector on a strat copy, which is an alternative to switchable pots. https://sixstringsupplies.co.uk/collections/guitar-switches/brand_free-way

See what you mean: the Yamaha Revstar doesn’t have Yamaha on the headstock, but does have the tuning forks.

But other Yamahas don’t have the tuning forks but do say Yamaha. Eg. https://uk.yamaha.com/en/products/musical_instruments/guitars_basses/el_guitars/sg/index.html

I think there was a period, pre Revstar, when motorbikes had the tuning forks but none of the Yamaha guitars did.

Yamaha makes lots of other musical instruments too.

The thing that puzzles me is that the Yamaha logo, 3 tuning forks, makes sense for instruments that you tune. But I’ve only seen it on their motorbikes.

I encountered something like this at work. It wasn’t pass related, it was just a means of getting people to make text responses. Ampersands were replaced with some gibberish format, which annoyed everyone.

I got some kind of explanation from our tech people, which I understood to mean that ampersand was used to indicate that what followed was live code. Turning the ampersand into gibberish text was a safety measure to stop mischief.

I’ve noticed ampersand replacements in some news feeds too

Can’t you change function keys in Settings, on your Mac?

Otherwise, you can use Karabiner on a Mac to remap keys.

Yes, that’s true. Keychain Access helps a lot.

My understanding is that your GF will be using Apple’s KeyChain, which is pretty good except that it’s hard to look inside and manually edit. It’s not just in Safari.

The upcoming Password app is just a nice user interface to KeyChain. So no change to the functionality as such, but I think it’ll make a big difference to how it’s used.
