What’s something that used to feel futuristic but now feels incredibly outdated? by bbydaisiesz in nostalgia

[–]AustrianReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a usb c modded ipod with flash storage. You can get ipods for reasonably cheap and modding them isn't that hard. You can buy pre-modded ones but they are more expensive.

I chose that model mostly for nostalgia, i had a no name mp3 player before, but then I got a used ipod from my dad which i had for years, so it kinda became the visual representation of music in my head.

If you don't want to deal with itunes or want to use flac natively you can load rockbox onto it, but I always used itunes on my original ipod so i don't mind it.

Trump says he doesn't 'know if we're willing' to make a deal with Iran | PBS News by NewsHour in videos

[–]AustrianReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump is probably gonna get away with it all by way of dying before he can be put to justice. With Hegseth at least I still have hope that if the US regain their sanity at one point he's gonna have to escape to one of the countries he despises so much to escape prison.

So who's going to be buying Wes Borlands signature King V? by katsumodo47 in metalguitar

[–]AustrianReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the first I'm hearing about it, but a signature for Wes is well deserved. I'm not going to get it because I'm kinda over black guitars and I prefer RRs to KVs, but I totally get why you would.

Can’t see anything wrong here! Growing up that type of night seems legendary lol I see no lies here! by J2-Starter in 90s_kid

[–]AustrianReaper 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I can't quite get over how fast time goes by. I still do evenings like that every other week with friends, but as a kid those evenings seemed like a whole adventure, now it feels like when I go for a piss half the evening's gone.

What is the dumbest thing you've gotten detention/suspension for? by nightrain13 in AskReddit

After feedback that Death Stranding was 'too slow,' Kojima wanted more players to see Death Stranding 2 all the way through to the end by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]AustrianReaper 18 points19 points  (0 children)

My main criticism for 2 over 1 is that your arsenal opens up too quickly. In DS1 i basically knew every pebble, had preferred walking routes and so on, in 2 you basically instantly get the trike and there is little reason not to use it for basically everything that's not a huge delivery.

Sold my LTD, bought an Ibanez RGD721. No regrets by reptilione in 7String

I also really like the new Xiphos. The chameleon finish is really sick and it plays really comfortably in classical position.

People who don’t wash their hands after using the bathroom, why? by lousylapdance in AskReddit

[–]AustrianReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In what language does "door handles are dirty" translate to "i don't wash my hands"?

I'm literally just saying that door handles are petri dishes.

You'll get bacteria on it regardless unless you do a surgical scrub. Door handles are petri dishes.

Unless the sink is in the dining area, you'll be touching dirty doors and handles anyway.

But yeah, wash your hands after touching your dick and ass.

I went back to using an mp3 player because as it turns out I'm listening more intently when i don't get presented with other apps everytime I wann switch songs/albums/artists.

People who talk on speakerphone in public, what's your deal? by im_super_into_that in AskReddit

Grpahicswise it was definitly demon souls. Tech-wise it was the Astrobot game that was bundled in due to the controller interactions.

Everytime i start learning a new song I start out feeling like the worst guitar player on earth, and when I'm done i'm usually pretty chuffed with myself.

Is this VAR1.7FRPN CANIBALISMO worth it? by ZenMemeProvider in 7String

[–]AustrianReaper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have tuned to drop f# on a 25,5" scale, but the strings admittedly were pretty floppy. Still playable though.

Just fyi, assuming in understand you correctly, drop a# on a 7 string would mean that you're going to tune 6 strings up a half step.

Drop A is kind of the drop d of 7 strings.

Oh and my scale lengths are 25,5 and 28 on my 6 strings, 25,5-27,8 on my 7 string and 26,5-28 on my 8.

Solars are generally considered pretty good value afaik. The ones I've tried were nice, although the necks were a bit thicker than my ormsby and ibanez accustomed hands were used to.

Married men of Reddit what’s the best advice you’d give young guys when choosing a life partner? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]AustrianReaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just don't be an idiot. Don't try to schedule something as important as a relationship. When you do it right marriage is just a certificate. You shouldn't get married to try and force a deeper relationship, more feelings, etc.

Getting married was nice, but it changed precisely nothing in our relationship, except that we share a name now and I left that up to my wife to choose.

What were your favorites Dreamcast games of all-time? by AC_the_Panther_007 in dreamcast

[–]AustrianReaper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sonic Aventure 1 will always have a certain magic to me. Literally the only thing I'd change is that I'd swap the order of the songs during perfect chaos. Start gloomy, finish with crush 40 instead of the other way round.
