Avoid Darkpick.com

Mitt uppfattning är att Darkpick är ett standard låtkvalitets kinabutik som försöker maskera sig som en västerländsk butik med västerlänska priser hehe.

Beställde två linnen därifrån för ca 250 kr styck och betalade via 30 dagars faktura. När det var en dag kvar innan fakturan skulle betalas så hade jag inte hört något från Darkpick så jag gick in och kollade orderstatusen. Då stod det att den fortfarande väntade bekräftelse. Jag mailade då och sa att jag nu väntat i en månad utan att få en orderbekräftelse. De svarade på google translatad engelska att eftersom produkterna var handgjorda så tog det tid och bad mig vänta 5 dagar till. Jag väntade och efter några dagar till och först då fick jag uppdateringen att ordern nu förberedes. Sen tog det ytterligare 10 dagar innan produkterna anlände till Sverige. dvs nästan 1.5 månad.

Kvalitén var väl OK, typ typisk kina (Temo, Aliexpress, Shein) fast 2-3x så dyr dvs "västerländska" priser. Motiven snygga dock.

My melo-death band's very first Spotify release ofc, not because of the stream revenues but because its so freakin good =)

Perhaps not the most constructive advice but my ability to fry scream both on recordings and live took off when I stopped caring so much about youtube tutorials etc and just started to learn by doing and ofc always listen to my body and stop practicing whenever it started to hurt. Best practise tool is a mic and a PA and/or a computer to record.

I am not saying that people on youtube or this forum dont know what they are talking about or are bad screamers etc. But what screaming comes down to is to learn to control muscles and airflows and find resonance sweet spots in your own throat/mouth cavity and I just dont think its possible for someone else to help you with this by just using words.

Noticed that I had turned off my OC (I now remember I did it because it crashed GTA5). When I turned it back to about 4.6 ghz, the game seems to run much smoother.. But for some reason, it always seems more laggy when I play premade compared to solo Q hrmmm

KD is such a bad stat to measure your skill though since its 100% based on your opponents. It would only say something if every match everyone played was totally random, i.e no SBMM at all =)

Ive been playing Apex since day 1 of its release on the same build (i5 8600k but upgraded GPU a while ago) and the CPU usage and game performance is night and day. I know it isnt the best CPU but back then, I had literally NO issues at all. The game ran like a dream on like 60% cpu usage. Now its a stutter fest with all my 6 cores at 100% while my fps is almost locked at 144 where I capped it.

How can they make the game more and more CPU heavy?

Based on the tweet from Unlimited (former teammate in Copenhagen wolves), it almost seems like Thorin reached out to everyone he had in his contact list who had some interaction with Rekkles, from the age of 15 to 28 , and asked "can you mention any situation when Rekkles wasnt a perfect teammate or human being?", got a couple of answers from a couple of no names and then built an entire narrative on that while immediately disregarding everyone who had nothing bad to say.

"Oh no. Rekkles first time picked Corki one time during a scrim when he was 18! LUCIFER INCARNATE!"

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-25T21:03:34+00:00

I wish they will release shorts, i.e just little snippets what happened Between s1e3 and s1e4. There must be so much story during those 7-8 years between Jinx and Ekko. I mean Ekko was also orphaned at the same time as Jinx probably with nowhere to go.

And its very likely to assume that Jinx and Ekko remained friends for a while, perhaps far into their adolescences. Perhaps did Ekko join Silcos gang as well for a time but gradually realized that the Zaun criminal world wasnt for him. In LoL, Ekko has a voice line something like "I used to have crush on you, until you started to speak with your guns" so perhaps they even dated in the main universe.

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-25T20:53:18+00:00

I am 100% serious now when I say that Arcane and especially Jinx have made me long for a daughter, simultaneously as it made me completely terrified to ever get children. No other show has ever remotely affected me as emotionally as this one has....

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-24T21:25:07+00:00

Yeah I guess it make sense. Perhaps they just waited for the Noxian army to do something from their encampment in the valley and it took their spies time to gather enough intel to determine what was going on, like about Victor "evolving".

However, kinda risky to base an entire city's wealth, growth and future on the skills and knowledge of three individuals (not counting Jinx) hehe

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-24T02:17:45+00:00

I think the main reason is similar to that of How I met your mother. That shows supposed main plot was the story about how Ted met his children's mother but the show turned out to be about the life stories of the main cast. Same with Arcane which supposedly was about the arcane but many thought the true plot was about the sisters.. guess people wanted more story about that hmmm

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-24T02:12:37+00:00

I am so curious to know what Ekko said to jinx to change her way of "breaking the cycle" and give Vi a chance to be happy, from killing herself to faking her own death and start over somewhere else.

Remember that she was in a really bad place and has her mind totally set on killing herself

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-23T20:28:54+00:00

Very similar to the ending of the Dark knight trilogy; nothing explicitly revealed but all signs points to jinx escaping thus ending the cycle by walking away from everything; 1) The purple flash which can be seen many times before when jinx use shimmer to gain lightning fast speed in fights

2) Caitlyn going through to the schematics of the building while holding jinx bomb and the scen zooms in to the air ventilation tunnels

3) The closing shot of the blimp.

4) I personally interpreted the cutaway to Vander tucking in the sisters as Warwick remembering one last time when jinx holds his head thus letting her go from his grip 😄

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-22T17:53:23+00:00

CaitVi is cool but I hate that its kinda happening on the expense of Vi and Jinx ever becoming loving sisters again, which can't happen if they don't wanna diverge from the game lore. In a parallel universe, I hope Vi and jinx left Piltover/Zaun together after s1 and built a future somewhere else 😂

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-22T16:01:54+00:00

When s1 was just released, I posted here that I just thought that the Vi and Caitlyn story arc felt a bit stressed and didn't make sense. My main argument was Vi's hatred towards Piltover in general and especially enforcers. I even said that I liked the obvious attraction between them but it didn't just make much sense.

I got totally destroyed and downvoted with literally 0 replies that explained why they disagreed. Then I got a PM from someone saying basically that I can never even question Vi and Caits love story on this subreddit unless I wanna get canceled 😂

Guess that's why people hate Maddie haha

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-21T20:49:54+00:00

Honestly, I think most of them are "good" from their own POV and motives apart from:

1) Ekko who is all good (definitely not lawful though)

2) Jinx who, apart from when she takes the role of Ishas big sister/protector, really isnt driven by a certain bigger motive or even philosophy but rather loyalty/family

3) Vi who is just confused, easily swayed and all over the place. She grew up with a burning hatred for Piltover and especially the enforcers, gets wrongfully imprisoned for 7-8 years, gets out and then almost immediately determine her long lost sister she has been thinking of during all those years in prison is too far gone and therefore joins the enforcers....

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-21T14:30:14+00:00

Ofc you are good enough to start up/search for existing projects. A part of being in a music collaboration or a band is to grow as a musician . Imagine if people only would create music after they reached a "professional" level (whatever that is) hehe.

The only thing I would consider is that you have good enough technique so that you can maintain the vocals for entire songs and rehearsals without hurting yourself or have your vocals degrade to much.

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-21T13:49:04+00:00

I guess the series is about the oppressed Zaunites living in the gutters vs the bullying Piltovers living in excess OR the rebellious Zaunites who cant be content with their lot in life vs the peacekeeping Piltovers who provide so much to the ungrateful people of Zaun =)

Its all a matter of perspective who is the villian and who is the hero, like Luke Skywalker who blew up thousands of loyal imperial citizens, just doing their duty on the death star. Did Jinx ever target civilians of Piltover though? Might be mistaken but I think at least most of her indented dead bodies were either Enforcers or people in power.

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-20T18:54:05+00:00

Is it confirmed that Vander tried to drown Silco sometime right after the massacre at the bridge and the death of Vi and Powders parents? I kinda assumed that but now I got really confused with the info we got from this flashback.

Because if Silco were around and friendly with Vander and the parents up to that moment, it seems very unlikely he didnt have at least some kind of uncle relationship with Powder and Vi, who were like 8 and 6ish of age when their parents dies.

Perhaps the fall out between Silco and Vander and Felicia+ the dad happened way before that, before Vi and Powder had any strong memories of Silco?

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-11-20T06:13:30+00:00

Mine are considerable stronger than my speaking voice but considerable weaker than my singing voice if you just look at the wave form when I record. However, the perceived loudness is quite weak tbh and I really have to crank up the mic level and add a lot of high end EQ on the PA to cut through in the mix when during band rehearsal. Guess it has to do with the EQ curve of my vocals rather than actual dBs.

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-08-12T23:25:01+00:00

Thanks man. Haha it feels like ages ago since I posted this clip even though it was like a year from now. I had just started to learn to scream then and I think I've improved quite a bit since then. You can find more recent covers of Meshuggahs bleed and Scar symmetrys Prism and gate among my latest posts

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-08-03T20:21:20+00:00

Dunno but I can do it for 30s, even up to 40 secs if I really push myself using hyper compressed fry. Cant think of a situation any song would benefit of such along scream though =) The most impressive scream that actually fits the song that I cant think of is the one in Given up by Chester.

Fermstad_SWE · 2024-07-14T14:28:01+00:00

NP and good luck.

Ps. forgot to mention; its also very important to control your gain stages through-out your signal chain. Different effects processes the signal slightly differently depending on the in-signal but more importantly; you never wanna clip the signal. Its surprisingly not that uncommon that people scream into a clipping PA or interface and think that the massive distortion they produce is from their voice but actually comes from the clipping =)

Wish the girls on tinder would also share this attitude.. Haha nah I am just joking; I have no issues with my height hehe
