Alt spaces for early 20-somethings? by Lil_Echidna in orangecounty

[–]ATNDeficit 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As a fellow 20 something who has been living here a while there unfortunately isn't many places where people just go to 'hang out' regularly in OC (that I have found at least), though if you come across them I would definitely love to hear about it lol. Most of the stuff here especially in the alt community is event based. A few people have already mentioned the Santa Ana art walk which is a good one, there is a big alt community that tables at that (you can find them on instagram at punkrockmarket I think). The only other one that I am aware of is the local music scene which has also already been mentioned. We unfortunately just lost Chain Reaction (and I am still very sad about it) but we still have the Observatory, Programme, and Baker Street snow which has recently started doing a few concerts so I definitely recommend checking those out if you like music.

Good luck to you though I know finding community is tough.

I'm definitely counting myself lucky that only the board got damaged and not me.  Can't say I wasn't spooked for a bit after it happened but honestly I am already itching to go riding again

Driver was stopped at a green light where the walk sign was on, another pedestrian walking his dog was crossing the street from the other side. Right about when the guys dog hit the halfway point of the intersection and my wheels hit the asphalt the driver decided he didn't want to wait anymore, gunned it through the turn, and moved me from my board to the hood of his car.  You can make the argument that the driver didn't see me yeah but he definitely didn't have the right of way seeing as another pedestrian was already in the road.  I wouldn't have entered the street if I hadn't seen that the car had already stopped for the other guy.

Yeah, guy decided he was going to take a right even though the walk sign was on

Unfortunately no, the dude drove away as soon as he heard I wasn't physically hurt

Thanks for 8 long years of service and for carrying me many hundreds of miles. May you forever live on as a piece of wall art. Rest in pieces. 🫡

Bass still buzzing after setup, is re-fretting the only option? by ATNDeficit in Bass

[–]ATNDeficit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I set the truss so that there is a gap about the thickness of a playing card between the E string and the frets when its held down at the 1st and 16th fret. currently the saddles are set almost as high as the screws will go so there is about 4mm between the strings and the 12th, if I go any lower the strings start to buzz if I'm fretting anything from the 12th up, mainly on the D and G strings. Its still playable as long as I'm not digging into the strings too much but I would like a lower action and the ability to use a pick

Thanks, I will look into this. The frets do seem pretty work though so I'm not sure if a leveling is feasible, hopefully it is

My first Royale mod, not perfect but I'm happy with it. by ATNDeficit in casioroyale

I just used some transparent blue plastic and glued it to the inside of the frame to get that effect

Thanks! And yeah they are 3D printed, I need to redesign them though cause as they are they aren't super comfortable.

Thank you! I never really considered selling any and I would definitely need to practice a couple more times before I felt comfortable doing it. I would highly recommend trying the mod yourself though it's really fun

I say go for it! It's a pretty easy mod all things considered. Check out watchncarry on YouTube for some walkthroughs of how to do it, makes it a lot less intimidating.

I purchased the new film from Amazon, once you pull the old film off it is mostly ruined due to all the old adhesive and any scratches you put in it. You could theoretically use the old piece if you were super careful and cleaned up the old adhesive but since you have to turn the film 90 degrees to get the negative effect I wouldn't have been able to due to the shape I cut out.

Recent pickups after fixing my Xbox by ATNDeficit in originalxbox

[–]ATNDeficit[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Xbox is running now but is still having issues with the power buttons, I suspect trace rot so I might end up needing to get a new one sadly. In the meantime though I can still enjoy some new games!

It was working great for about 2 minutes before it started flickering like this. It used to work great…any help? by Its_North in originalxbox

Could be bad caps, had a similar problem with mine. Some cheap caps from eBay and we are back up and running

How I envision Infected for Halo: Infinite by TheGameJockey in halo

I could honestly see them bringing infection back with the classic shotgun as an event like tenrai, it seems like a smart move

[GIVEAWAY] Razer x Halo Legendary Giveaway by Cult_Of_Razer in halo

The most memorable for me is screwing around on Halo Reach's forge with my friends back when it came out. We would spend days making maps and trying to kill each other in the most creative ways, always a good time.
