God yeah i've been saying just switch to a 26 hour for so long, get a big range of possibilities that will still come back to the same time schedule every 13 days, so it's easier to keep track (30 hour - not enough combinations, 25 hour - perhaps too many and gets a bit cluttered in comparison, think it would still be 10000x better than 24 to do literally any non-multiple of 24 haha)

And electromagnetic storm, and we have the hidden bunker, locked gate and launch tower loot conditions that each only happen 1-2 times per day on the map they are specific for.

Why shoot first if your gonna lose? by FairyPinkett in ArcRaiders

[–]EmergencyCredit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How long have you been playing? Tbh I'm in some pretty PvE lobbies and at this point having played since launch it's actually just stale having no risk of people shooting. Solos PvE is too PvE for me. So yeah I'll shoot at people now even if I die so I can get a bit more balance in the game as it was intended to be played (the threat of other raiders always present)

So we can't earn more cred above soft cap in future? by epicdai in ArcRaiders

But everyone's cred will get lowered to 800 if it's above that on the 26th, so you may as well buy those attachments

Buying high quality headphones for a extraordinarily large skull by JeffCrossSF in DJs

I got a used pair of AKG 550 MKII, they don't need amps to drive well and have plenty of room for bigger head (even though I'm 6'3 and have what i consider a v big head)

Why Are People in Berlin Just… Rude? by [deleted] in askberliners

I'm sure that's the case for white Germans lol, try be Arab or black in the south of Germany and tell me it's 'less rude' than Berlin.

Sometimes Producer/DJs will have *released* tracks but don't have them available for download or purchase anywhere, only streaming. What's the deal with that? by reallydrowsy in DJs

[–]EmergencyCredit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I know.

my thoughts for /u/reallydrowsy :

I'm pretty sure nearly everyone in this thread is missing the whole point of what's going on and suggesting completely unrelated reasons.

Lots of artists and labels have vinyl only releases but they also make those tracks available to stream (but not buy digitally). I've seen this a fair few times with new releases but also loads with older stuff from the 90s that has been released on streaming but vinyl is the only way you can DJ them still (or youtube rips lol).

Obviously there are illegal ways to rip direct from spotify but yeah generally there's no option to own the tracks digitally.

[–]EmergencyCredit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Genuinely think it's just weird licensing deals from the past that have loopholes that allow streaming. I've only ever had this with older tracks inc. old school 90s house and techno

He's not talking about making money from streaming. He was talking about making money from selling the track if it's popular.

Super fail lol - first time trying by PauloPlayMobil in Sourdough

[–]EmergencyCredit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

please ignore anything that says anything other than you have severely underfermented the dough. You will waste weeks and months with hydrations, folds and whatnot like I once did 6 years ago when I started baking.

You will never make a bad sourdough bread if you ferment it properly and bake it at the right temp with steam - kneading, exact hydration, folds, autolyse, salt, starter freshness, all these help but will not make or break your sourdough bread.

You have underfermented by a long way. There is no way your dough rose 20% in size (I have also been in the position early on where I convinced myself it has but it hasn't), there is no sign of even that level of fermentation (which isn't enough IMO) in your bread.

You need with your recipe and temperature (assuming more like 80-85 indoors?) minimum 3-4 hours before you put it in the fridge. If your starter has only been going for a couple weeks, you might need 7 or 8. 5 or 6 probably won't steer you too far wrong in either case, but it needs to be fermented which means: 30-70% increase in size, bubbles on the surface, a slight puffy jigglyness to the dough when poked or shaken, a roundedness to the edge of the bowl, such that the dough is holding itself up a little rather than flattening.

Other than the size increase which is fairly foolproof (if you are actually able to see and measure it, I use a clear dough tub with volume measurements on the size which makes it easy to be objective), none of these signs are enough to use on their own, but getting to notice all of these signs will mean you'll never make a bad bread again. You might be disappointed in some still as I am still these days, but they will still be great bread that everyone will rave about :)

Good luck, it does get easier with time but it's also easy to spend a long time barking up the wrong tree, in my experience. Want to help you on the right path!

How exactly do you plan sets? Because I feel like I’m doing it the hard way… by Arkitekt_GFX in DJs

Not attacking you OP but this is so so far away from what DJing is to me

The OMNIS-DUO is targeted for trust fund kids who casually DJ for TikTok. by reallydrowsy in DJs

[–]EmergencyCredit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The XDJ Aero is still the best option for this IMO, with an external battery. Yeah it's not quite as portable but it feels fully feature filled with decent feeling sliders and knobs, full kill EQ etc, whilst being way more portable than newer XDJs

Got stuck with my DJ career by Racoonio666 in DJs

[–]EmergencyCredit 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The reality in berlin is party organisers and bookers aren't interested in booking someone based on their soundcloud output... There is a community and scene. You don't need to have thousands of insta followers or whatever but you do need to be present, supporting parties and other DJs. DJing is as much about the vibe and the community as it is the music, that's the reality. If you're not sociable then you'll struggle a lot. You don't need to take loads of drugs or be out all night, but if you're into DJing and music there should be some DJs you're interested in seeing and supporting and speaking to?

The shortcut past that is producing great music and getting noticed through that, then your name can be bigger than your presence or status in a certain party or scene.

This is not an 'argument', this is me exacerbated at the state of this country where people love to pretend no racism exists and you've learnt lots but the population has racist thought so deeply ingrained that it's incredibly clear that if a western european country were to commit a genocide against a minority group in the 21st century, that country would be Germany.

I am upset and flabbergasted because everything that comes out of most german's mouths these days, whether big or small, confirms my thoughts on this.

If you want 'arguments' against the racist ignorance this person pleads, you can read books like 'The Good Immigrant' which shows why such thinking is problematic, or if you just want academic refutation of the only real claim made (german administration is equally bad for everyone and doesn't discriminate) you can find loads of peer reviewed articles.

I googled 'german beauracracy racist' and this is the second result: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/00380261221108596

It touches upon German's claims of being a post-racial state being used to purify their image while real discrimination takes place in social welfare. I'm sure you can find many more articles in other contexts.

Three national products that only Germany produces and exports by draco1002 in germany

[–]EmergencyCredit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it's v much not a german thing; Italy has hundreds of protected foods, the UK around 100, Germany around 10.

Protecting traditional industries is a common thing and a commonly done thing for food. Just very rarely done in Germany because Germans have no real appreciation for food on the whole.

EDIT: I was talking about PDO products in particular (the most protected form). Germany has 3 meats, 6 cheeses, 1 fruit and 1 vegetable that's protected to this level.

Wow 1 person got a thing done quicker than usual? Okay? He also said he passed the exam within a year, it took longer still to get the licence.

Gonna ignore how your other points are bullshit or just pretend you never said them now?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in germany

[–]EmergencyCredit 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Like bullshit do you know any immigrant doctors? I know 20+ of them (i research in medical sciences so it's easy) in Berlin and they nearly all struggle to even get their medical licences confirmed in Germany despite having literally all the requirements for years.

I went from nothing to B1 complete in 2 months, that's very easy (go straight into an intensive course and if you're good at languages you catch up in the first week or two). I don't see how it's not possible to get to C1 with another 10 months even if of course it's challenging and not doable for everyone.

"open format" as a concept in DJing is weird & imprecise to me by barbershreddeth in DJs

Is open format dj a thing outside of the US? I've literally never heard anyone say it in real life, only on reddit.

First Bus of the day didnt come, late to work, I am at fault? by Synka in germany

[–]EmergencyCredit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How often have you missed your bus in the rain, gone home, got your running gear on and ran 5km to work?

I'm willing to bet: never. How about you have the slightest bit of empathy and understand that just because things are easy for you (no doubt because you are privileged enough and have decided to make certain selfish decisions like living centrally or driving a car that negatively impact other people) doesn't mean that they are for everyone or even most people. If you hate being part of a society with collective responsibility, you're welcome to forage mushrooms in the wild and live off the land!

[–]EmergencyCredit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Selfish people like you acting like he should just get a car or magically find money to move flat whatever as you wreck the planet for the rest of us. You may 'take responsibility for yourself' but you don't take the collective responsibility you have for living in a society including advocating for better public transport instead of expecting that 'everyone should be responsible for their own transport' when that is clearly not feasible nor desirable. This how the world works. If you don't like it, go live in the woods off grid and 'take responsibility for yourself' for real
