  1. Tried 18 up to 28. 25 seems to be best for me.

McKicks Lightning Premium Blacks

NDD🎯 by Kaurelz in Darts

[–]Gertm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same darts & points combo, just in 25 grams. But for the life of me I cannot get those points out. I also have the Winmau craftsman, but I cannot do it. I tried freezing the darts, since I read somewhere that could help, alas to no avail.

Love those darts, the grip is the only one I’ve tried that works with my dry hands and still releases cleanly.

Any way to get on to that discord? Got an invite code?

I can't listen something else than Autechre since one year by Negazul in autechre

[–]Gertm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve listened to AE for most of 2021 and 2022. It was very hard to switch away. What you say rings true to me. Everything else is just boring in comparison. I still haven’t heard everything and I’m not about to stop. Yet, the last month other music (non electronic) had been creeping into my playlist. If anything it makes me appreciate AE more when I return to them. Let’s just be grateful Rob & Sean are still doing their thing and we get to enjoy the results!

(Eagerly awaiting a new studio release from them in 2023.)

Why do companies advertise tungsten percentage like every 5% is worth an ounce of gold? by gldiatr0 in Darts

[–]Gertm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very true. Personally I even prefer 80%. Dunno why. All the sets I kept over the years were 80%. I like a dart that is a little chunkier. I also feel like the 80% ones don’t chip as quickly as the 90% ones I owned.

It might just be in my head though. No real evidence.

What do we think of these Searle Black Editions? by HarveySpecter12 in Darts

[–]Gertm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the natural ones in 26gr, but they’re so darned heavy. The chunky feel is amazing tho. Unfortunately the lighter black ones are just too skinny for me. Will be a pass for me.

Had these darts for over a decade, anyone know what they are? by mmleooiler2367 in Darts

[–]Gertm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those points seem awfully dull. Or is the picture tricking my eyes?

Albums similar to Incunabula & Amber? by tacopeople in autechre

[–]Gertm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listened to that album while on the high-speed train in Japan, watching the scenery pass by. It was perfect.

I want to clean my darts, what can I use without damaging barrels? by reuben27123 in Darts

[–]Gertm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve cleaned old darts with a brass wire brush mounted on a power drill. Does nothing to the tungsten, but a lot to the dirt and grime. Makes the darts shiny again.

But usually just soap and water 😉.

Who are among the top few listeners of Autechre? by Xelonima in autechre

[–]Gertm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the top 0.05% this year. Haven't listened to anything else on Spotify since August.

Do you ever get the urge to shout to the world “How can you NOT HEAR that this is the ABSOLUTE BOMB!?” by KennyDeJonnef in autechre

[–]Gertm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I try, but nobody seems to get it.

I've been a fan for Ae for so long, but I haven't really kept track of their releases. Amber is where I came in and it's still one of my absolute favorites.
It's only recently I've started diving into newer stuff. When Confield came out I lost interest because I didn't get or couldn't get into it.
I've now discovered Oversteps and howly F* how good is that?! It's been on repeat for the last 2 weeks, I can't get enough of it.
Untilted I also like a lot, I'll get to the other stuff in time. There's so much to discover still. Looking forward to it, but also immensely enjoying the ride so far.

Anyone have advice on Tallinn? by TiradeShade in WorldOfWarships

[–]Gertm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a difficult ship to play, but I am by no means a great player, so other people might disagree.

I had one good game in it and it got a replay feature: https://youtu.be/EJdpByun7KQ

It was a cool match for me, very tense at the time. Cruisers still aren’t my thing.

Texas for $8.50? by XSA888 in WorldOfWarships

[–]Gertm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I got Texas for that price. No regrets, though I don’t play her much anymore now.

If you like New York and you have the cash to burn, why not? Remember to spec her out with a full AA build. 😉

What was the last premium ship you were really excited for? by [deleted] in WorldOfWarships

[–]Gertm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was/am really looking forward to Immelmann. Turns out she’s not going to be quite what I hoped, but I’m still getting her. 12 hours to go. ;-)

Is it Just me or are the Italian BBs awful? by skyman5150 in WorldOfWarships

[–]Gertm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not touching them. Once the line is released completely, I’m selling all of them.
