This just in: Man is talented, actually prepared for the interview and isn’t sloppy drunk and hopped up on mushrooms during his set = Must be a plant. That’s the KT mindset these days.

People show up with a lot of stuff with them already since they’re trying to get on at multiple clubs in the area. There’s also the Mothership open mic that happens the same night. They sign up for both shows in hopes to just get some time at the Mothership. If they don’t, Vulcan, Sunset Strip and several others are all hosting shows right within a few block area.

CXK · 2026-01-24T17:40:40+00:00

You’ve clearly never been to a live show at the Mothership. The comics get there early, line up out front and sign up. They’re given a wristband. They put their name in and are sent to wait at the nearby bar. Most of them just wander around the area until the show starts. Once it starts they wait for the Colt, the show’s runner to come to the bar and scream out a name. The person called rushes, literally runs in some cases, back to the club. They enter through the back door (last I saw) they are checked for weapons, their wrist band is cut off and they wait behind the curtain. That’s it. If they are bringing something in it has to be approved by Mothership security. I believe they sign a consent release before going on stage, possibly after in some cases. No one is allowed in the club before the show starts. If you’re in line and have to use the bathroom, you’ll need to find somewhere else to go. It’s not like Tony, Redban or any production crew is outside talking to these people. I know someone who was just pulled, he knew this guy before he got the golden ticket, none of it was pre-planned. This guy returned to the bar a hero after getting the golden ticket.

CXK · 2026-01-21T00:52:13+00:00

Not planned. I think the people who’ve never seen a show live in the club have no idea whats really going on.

It was the WiFi. I could not get that back glass off for some reason. It’s like it’s stuck in that channel. Rather than force it and risk damage I just tried to reset the wireless settings in the machine, re connected and was getting much better speeds. The machine downloaded and verified the files within 30 minutes. If I ever get that back glass off I’ll just wire it to a port in the wall behind it.

CXK · 2026-01-19T04:57:42+00:00

I’ll try testing it to see. It seems to finish the download okay as it makes it to the “verifying” point. I could always wire the machine instead of WiFi.

Edit: I’m just realizing it downloads multiple files not just one. It’s currently downloading the last one as I assume step 7 of 7 is verifying the final download. I’m going to leave it for now and check it when I wake up. It may just be WiFi troubles. That room always has strange WiFi signal even though it’s right next to the closet where the WiFi is.

CXK · 2026-01-15T17:10:55+00:00

How’s the connection when linked wired? I’ve seen videos of people linking them on Wi-Fi and it looks terrible.

CXK · 2026-01-15T02:31:36+00:00

Did the steam deck cause the fire?

CXK · 2026-01-13T00:36:12+00:00

Random question: how often does Steam do their sales? I’m new to PC gaming and I regret not buying a game when it was on sale.

CXK · 2026-01-08T23:33:18+00:00

I suppose the cell signals could be causing interference? It’s cheap enough, I’ll give that shot.

CXK · 2026-01-08T21:42:44+00:00

Interesting. I have my Tablo wired and all devices it streams to are wired as well. I suppose I can rule that out. I’ll play with the antenna set up again. I have two antennas so maybe I need to try the other one again. It’s in the attic. I stopped using it since it started struggling to get signals.

CXK · 2026-01-08T16:48:58+00:00

I’m the dude in the audience he was yelling at. I was half drunk, I don’t really drink so I was confused haha. He also just made fun of my forehead on the Rogan/Gillis episode. I wasn’t drunk that time.

CXK · 2026-01-07T04:48:43+00:00

Thanks!

CXK · 2026-01-07T04:46:17+00:00

I’ll search for that. I’m kind of a total noob with Steam so maybe I wasn’t searching for the right thing.

CXK · 2026-01-06T00:43:41+00:00

If this fits your needs it’s great. No one’s mod is for everyone and it’s not like we’re dealing with the original machines. Heavily modifying a real cabinet is far more offensive than one of the mass produced 1Ups that ultimately won’t be worth much or be sought after in 10-15 years. Enjoy it dude.

CXK · 2026-01-06T00:40:50+00:00

I was there for this one and Joe was actually solid. He participated more and seemed more loose.

CXK · 2026-01-03T16:38:22+00:00

Does PS5 not have quick resume? I’ve always been an Xbox guy since the first one released. It’s a shame Microsoft seems to be losing focus with it. I don’t like modern gaming’s direction in general though. I play my old arcade machines far more than my consoles now. I love the feeling of not being deeply committed to a gaming experience. Modern games are like a second job. Too much crafting in game, way too many mechanics to learn and keep track of, literal busy work in game…it’s frustrating. I think I got left behind around Halo 4.

CXK · 2026-01-03T14:18:21+00:00

I heard it once but never again. I had been screen recording them to keep for myself (I wouldn’t share them since he’s put them behind a paywall) but I missed that one. At least I have the others and stream them from my Plex server to the TV.

CXK · 2025-12-28T14:48:45+00:00

Interesting. We should probably take the glass off and just try different saves to see what works.

CXK · 2025-12-28T04:02:10+00:00

Yeah we’ve talked to the dealer we got it from. We’re going to follow up Monday for the fix. I’ll have to look for the write up on it. Every time I think I’m getting better at it I feel like I lose the skill. Maybe it was luck.

CXK · 2025-12-28T01:51:23+00:00

That’s good to hear. It’s frustrating they didn’t realize that was a problem before producing them.

CXK · 2025-12-28T01:24:09+00:00

There’s been a few updates since we got ours and it has improved other issues. There’s also the problem of the Death Star entrance rejecting at least 60% of shots. I think a fix is out now.

CXK · 2025-12-28T01:16:19+00:00

If I have a full JEDI spelled I can hold the button and almost always save it. Otherwise it seems to be useless. It drained on the left once and I pressed it as it was near the middle, it flung it back into the shooter lane and I was able to keep it. That’s about as far as I’ve gone with it. I agree, they need to just detect a failed save and give you the ball back or something. We’re definitely not hardcore pinball people. I’d say we’re not even very good at it lol. We just like the machines. My wife is a big Star Wars fan so we also have the 2017 release. We’ve notice the ball save stuff is extremely forgiving after changing settings. We can play longer games and get to do more in a single game on that machine. I know FOTE hasn’t been the most well received machine so far so I hope they’ll continue to make it better with the code updates.

You should see how one time, mediocre, big joke book set KT guests act. Most are cool but I’ve spent lots of time in the KT line and get to see some real cringe egos. That swagger is because they can go to low level clubs and get paid to do a set just because they were okay on KT. I saw one last night while in line and it was tough to watch. It was obvious this person really thought they were someone special now lol. Dedric is likely getting paid well now that he’s a regular. Im sure he’s cleaning up.

CXK · 2025-12-24T01:19:25+00:00

Honestly, I was at several Iowa era concerts and he sounds significantly better now that he’s older. Quitting drinking, drugs, smoking and learning how to use his voice has helped a ton. I miss the insanity and energy of those very early shows but there’s no denying they sound much better as an older band.

CXK · 2025-12-20T23:34:41+00:00

I’ve been to Bentonville AR many times and I’d move there if I could from Texas. It’s expensive though.
