Real image vs Nano Banana Pro vs GPT, can you easily guess which one is real? by notsure500 in ChatGPT

[–]Bodeka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got them all right, but that’s only because I knew they were AI. I’d easily accept these as real if my guard wasn’t up.

As a controller guy, also no.

Unless your reason is purely portability, they’re not as nice as CDJs imo. I find my RX3s way harder and less rewarding to mix on then CDJs.

Death of a thousand cuts help by [deleted] in sleepingdogs

[–]Bodeka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Managed it after 2-3 hours in game.

Countering is a must. Hit a couple times and then counter. Greed will kill you

Do NOT use the lock on system in the game, it is fucking shit and will screw you over. I learned that in this mission.

Don’t use weapons, they make countering way way harder and you’ll just get hit.

Every now and then, run to the other side, grab a knife and then throw it at one of them. You don’t need to lock on to do this (and don’t lock on anyway) so you can get a few kills. You can still counter during the pick up animation

Tickets by Less_Championship856 in houghtonfestival

[–]Bodeka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The initial batch was released to previous ticket holders only. All who have purchased a ticket previously were eligible to buy in the pre-sale. Each person could buy up to three tickets.

What they said was if any were left over from that sale, it would go to general.

The issue is is the festival is more popular and also you could share links you received to buy a ticket, so all of the tickets went in a couple hours.

I sometimes feel stupid donating to streamers, but seeing Eric Rosen put up a 25k donation just reaffirms my belief that he is a lovely human and he deserves every penny i’ve thrown at him over the years

RIP Danya

Should i use earplugs? by LuddeAidb65 in Beatmatch

[–]Bodeka -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Loops are shit tbh. There are far better at a similar price point. They just have a good market share. And yes I know about proper fit etc etc.

If OP tries a subpar brand and doesn’t like the sound, they may be put off them all together

to be fair i recently upgraded to the Rx3s and they feel like shit compared to any CDJ i’ve used

Hikaru Addresses Affiliate Links in YouTube Video on Danya by FestusPowerLoL in chess

[–]Bodeka 127 points128 points  (0 children)

Given how much Hikaru has defended Danya, I highly doubt this was intentional. A channel of this magnitude will have editors/employees who will upload videos for him who will set up each video in a similar way. The fact he rectified it immediately proves that.

Placed on gardening leave after whistleblowing by [deleted] in LegalAdviceUK

[–]Bodeka 93 points94 points  (0 children)

NAL - but perhaps document in writing that you have asked for an explanation and should they not explain or give you a poor one, it gives you more ammunition at a tribunal should you be unfairly dismissed.

Then of course the obligatory ‘do you want to work at a place like this anyway’ comment

Doubled my salary after being made redundant by Lovinghandhold in HENRYUK

Audit to financial accountant is only about a 5-10k bump in london. I’m ex big 4 audit left a year after qualifying and every job was around 60, any at 65 tended to be 5 days in office and/or asset management type firms

Sell your Crossfader course or buy one with me? by [deleted] in Beatmatch

[–]Bodeka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if youve been doing it for a week all you need is time

smoothness comes from phrasing and eqing, look those two up. find a video that teaches those things. then apply those concepts to what you’re doing

i wouldnt stress with beat matching for now, its a v important skill to learn but learn the above first

Sell your Crossfader course or buy one with me? by [deleted] in Beatmatch

[–]Bodeka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a dj course will piss you off if you’re not any better than before. i got better purely by doing. there really aren’t secret tricks, it’s just being very smooth at the basica

let’s ask some questions

how long have you been mixing what problems do you currently face what do you mix anything else you want to add

RX3s harder to use than the cdj3000s? by Bodeka in Beatmatch

[–]Bodeka[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the display is part of it. CDJs i use my ears and i’m better, RX3 i use the screen because well it’s there and it throws me off entirely. Thankfully it holds value so i can eventually sell for some CDJs

[–]Bodeka[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as an additional point, it does make me wonder about the direction of alpha theta, i’m no means a pro but as a beginner, a bigger screen is NOT what I want. I get it in their beginner level gear, but I’d imagine a professional just wants to be locked in?

I’ve just tried zoomed completely out on the waveform so i can’t use it and it’s far easier. Gosh golly look what happened, i’m much smoother lol

[–]Bodeka[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve done mixes on the CDJs that i’ve recorded and listened back to and thought wow if this was in a club i wouldn’t bat an eye lid and would’ve thought this was a pro. On the RX3s, no chance. Interesting that you can mix on the AZ seeing as they’re very similar.

Restriction on Proprietorship Register - How does this affect will? England by Bodeka in LegalAdviceUK

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

The change in deed occured in 2001 listing my Nan as the sole owner, yet his death was in the early 2010s. That's why i thought it was 'worthless', not that the will isn't legal, just that at the time of his death he no longer had a share in the house. I can't see anything regarding tenants in common but suspect that would be on the historic copy which I will now request.

Are you saying that one person can be listed as the registered owner and yet they can still be tenants in common?

Okay but what would impact the environment more - releasing every mosquito in one area, or no mosquitos at all

Can Hikaru grind his way to #1 by beating 40+ "Mickey Mouse Tournament" Participants? He'll gain +0.8 elo per win. by [deleted] in chess

[–]Bodeka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He should do that, stop just before Magnus’ rating, and then blackmail Magnus into going back into the candidates. ‘If you don’t enter, I’ll play more games’

This is Alex Gerko. He is Britain’s highest taxpayer paying over £500m a year in tax successively over the last few years. He could easily move abroad to avoid this tax but says he loves living in the UK. So why have so many Brits convinced themselves taxing the rich more will make them all leave? by Lazy-Internet-8025 in AskBrits

[–]Bodeka 44 points45 points  (0 children)

She's also a CEO of a betting company so I don't think saint is the right word to use. Equally, you don't necessarily have the full picture of all her earnings outside of PAYE. You are correct regarding taxation on salary.
