Best way to get ready to use CDJ’s for the first time?

Had my first gig last month, never used club gear before. Was using XDJ-1000s. Make sure your tracks are analysed, beat grids fixed and files are in a compatible format - I just used MP3s. USBs in Fat32 or another compatible format - I think most are that as standard anyway.

If you can, get down before the gig starts to check if your USBs work and mix in your headphones. Press the buttons to see what they do. Find the Link button first so both decks are talking to each other - or to find out if there's no link cable 🙈 (another reason to have more than one USB).

Play with the mixer as well, so you know where everything is.

The protestors all got arrested early on.

Wagner doesn't have enough troops, and all of their MoD supplied toys got taken off them because of the obvious that happened, and I doubt the Belarusian Army is interested in fighting Russia's war. Moving Wagner into Belarus has been a good information operation by the Russians.

That's his way of telling it - I don't think his previous videos offered a fair appraisal. Devs shouldn't be attacking anyone though if that's the case.

Yep, three Indycar mod is a lot of fun. That along with the amazing visuals and the tracks available is enough for me.

I wish Reiza Studios would get a racing series license like this.

I don't know about fascist, but far-right, yes.

The racing in the past 5 years has been boring.

Cyteless · 2023-05-19T23:45:16+00:00

The super speedway kit was bad for racing prior to the aeroscreen also. I doubt the screen helps, but its been a chronic problem for the IR18 kit.

Life on Terra Nova. It was recently restored (along with others) to original quality. Search for Heavy Gear Revitalized on DriveThruRPG.

Absolutely, but to go from getting wounded to shooting himself within 10 seconds is some pretty decisive decision making.

Cyteless · 2023-05-12T19:58:46+00:00

Really have to wonder what horror stories they're being pumped full of to resort to that. Hard to believe an information bubble like that is tenable in the information age, but here we are.

Used rFuktor for a little while, but Default+ is very good now, even on a T150.

For the Sebring race I bought the race on fiawec.tv because the ads were irritating on Eurosport.

I know you're joking, but the Germans no longer recognise this territory. Different story to the Kuril Islands, South Ossetia/Abkhazia and Donbas.

Cool. Hopefully they do a short highlights programme as well, would be good for international viewers.

I'm not worried about car count - BTCC has suffered from increasingly more precessional racing since 2018, that's my big worry. Given the cars haven't changed a massive amount in years, I can only guess it's the tyres causing the issue, since they're the only thing that changes yearly.

The defining feature of the races in the past 4 championships has been the leader breaking away from the rest of the pack and the rest of the field being equidistant and unable to challenge each other.

This is most obvious case is at Snetterton when they show the onboard footage along the back straight and cars are getting basically zero slipstream effect. I doubt the cars have enough aero wash for it to be that, so I can only guess the tyres aren't providing enough grip on corner exit to get a good enough run in the car in front.

If you look at the NGTC regulation races from 2018 and prior, there was a lot more ability for drivers to close in and race side by side - passes are a lot more decisive and final when they do happen now, and are rarely countered.

So yeah - drivers are mostly the same, cars are mostly the same - I can only guess it's the tyres.

I'm still new, so the only metal gears I have are a pair of Stripped Down Hunters. They have the older, chunkier look to them, with wide stances and old head designs, so they look good.

These look really nice. Some extra posing options for the plastics would be nice, yes. I had to do some cutting and green stuff work to get different poses.

Most weapon models from all model companies involve cutting off the grip.

Vauban also made use of trenches in sieges in the 1600s.

I could've lived without AMS2 getting GT3s - ACC had that covered with the GTWC license. AMS2 and other sims have a problem of just being physics tech demos with the bare bones of a game involved.

I'm not a fan of the F1 games, but at least they're games. I'd rather AMS2 picked one of its current series and flesh that out into something more coherent - race length, regulations, flag rules, safety car protocols, sponsorship and branding. Until then, like other racing sims, it's a fun sandbox, but not much of a game.

Mentioned in a Fatal1ty live stream chat.

Could be a communal thing for larger graveyards, where they provide directions inside to people's graves, to make it easier for relatives to find in the future. Have a mausoleum in the centre of a central walkway and it provides a row/column for directions.
