Saw this treatment on the news tonight. Thought might be of interest to some of yall

OK so, I have a friend who has a band. I have wanted to build him a guitar based on their logo for quite some time now. Finally now being retired I am off to the races.
I am starting with a Fender Strat donor guitar so hopefully it will sound decent when done.. I am going to reuse all the electronics and neck from it. The neck has been stripped of all marking and I will apply his logo to the neck and clear it.
For the body I am using poplar which will be laminated to 1.5"s thick. I plan on recessing all the electronics from the back so the front has no plastic on it. The idea right now is to build it so when he is playing the logo is in the correct orientation.
This is where I am at and my general thought on how it will be assembled.
Now I realize this is more of a novelty idea maybe for a song or two a night.
Also the name of the band is Big Bad Stache..............
Be easy on me.


This is their logo I made a few tweaks to make it workable.

As a former corporate finance guy I'm seeing a lot of this already - a big wave is on the horizon...

Dario Amodei — CEO of Anthropic, one of the world's most powerful creators of artificial intelligence — has a blunt, scary warning for the U.S. government and all of us:

• AI could wipe out half of all entry-level white-collar jobs — and spike unemployment to 10-20% in the next one to five years, Amodei told us in an interview from his San Francisco office.
• Amodei said AI companies and government need to stop "sugar-coating" what's coming: the possible mass elimination of jobs across technology, finance, law, consulting and other white-collar professions, especially entry-level gigs.

Why it matters: Amodei, 42, who's building the very technology he predicts could reorder society overnight, said he's speaking out in hopes of jarring government and fellow AI companies into preparing — and protecting — the nation.

Few are paying attention. Lawmakers don't get it or don't believe it. CEOs are afraid to talk about it. Many workers won't realize the risks posed by the possible job apocalypse — until after it hits.

• "Most of them are unaware that this is about to happen," Amodei told us. "It sounds crazy, and people just don't believe it."

The big picture: President Trump has been quiet on the job risks from AI. But Steve Bannon — a top official in Trump's first term, whose "War Room" is one of the most powerful MAGA podcasts — says AI job-killing, which gets virtually no attention now, will be a major issue in the 2028 presidential campaign.

• "I don't think anyone is taking into consideration how administrative, managerial and tech jobs for people under 30 — entry-level jobs that are so important in your 20s — are going to be eviscerated," Bannon told us.

Amodei — who had just rolled out the latest versions of his own AI, which can code at near-human levels — said the technology holds unimaginable possibilities to unleash mass good and bad at scale:

• "Cancer is cured, the economy grows at 10% a year, the budget is balanced — and 20% of people don't have jobs." That's one very possible scenario rattling in his mind as AI power expands exponentially.

The backstory: Amodei agreed to go on the record with a deep concern that other leading AI executives have told us privately. Even those who are optimistic AI will unleash unthinkable cures and unimaginable economic growth fear dangerous short-term pain — and a possible job bloodbath during Trump's term.

Looking to sell a backup scope. ZCO 5-27 that has been sitting in my safe since September 2021. I put it on a backup match rifle to make sure it functioned properly and then set it in the safe. I believe I still have the original box floating around, but not sure I'll be able to easily find it since we moved.

Excellent condition with some minor wear including some marks on the windage turret from brass hitting it. Will sell by itself or with all of the pictured accessories.

Looking for rangefinding binos so I can be a better squadmate/try my hand at some NRL. Is there a consensus "best" intersection of value and features in the way many regard the Gen 3 Razor?

Sometimes stepping outside the box is a fun challenge. Tonight's dinner. Sesame-crusted ahi tuna tostadas on a bed of spring greens tossed in a verde balsamic dressing. Tostadas are topped with a purple cabbage slaw, cotija cheese, a creamy avocado-verde sauce I made, and of course, the tuna. Flanked by a tequila sunrise.

They don’t care if nobody wanted the bullshit global pandemic treaty or how many bodies stack up, the blood-soaked monsters will keep pushing forward
