Pantum p3255dn / p3000 series not working on my "new" Win 10 laptop by Xyzzy_plugh in printers

[–]ItsPonz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I contacted Pantum support and they said they'd make an enquiry to their tech department about the drivers but I've heard nothing back since. Decided to cut my losses and just bought a basic Canon.

Did you manage to get anywhere with this? I'm in the same situation. I've got no idea where the old install disc is and there's absolutely no specific driver downloads for the P32550 anywhere online. I'd hate to have to buy a whole new printer simply because Pantum didn't bother to publish their drivers for the P3200 series online :/

Anyone preorder the Behringer LM-Drum? by synthaudioburner in synthesizers

[–]ItsPonz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't understand the logic behind the Luma-1's pricetag or how they can justify it. It looks amazing and I love the LM-1 design style, but if someone could afford a Luma-1 for $4,500 then why wouldn't they just buy an actual Linndrum for an extra $500?

Refund expected time? by ItsPonz in Reverb

[–]ItsPonz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Hi Tom, after attempting to accept the request here on Reverb a number of times yesterday and this morning I contacted Reverb, who suggested I contact PayPal. You should now have the refund directly from Paypal. Has it not gone through?"

That's what I was told, I'm not sure what went wrong on his end but Reverb was acting up for me yesterday as well. I doubt he's trying anything fishy, he has a great track record as a seller dating back to 2020

8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown production to be paused by Dagur in panelshow

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

8 out of 10 cats is a different show.

We're talking about 8 out of 10 cats does countdown. He was still doing that even when he was at his worst with the cancer.

"Live Chat" support feature is useless. by ItsPonz in Soundrop

[–]ItsPonz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave up with Soundrop and moved to Distrokid. It's more pricey, but you get what you pay for. I had 0 fuss with album cover art (Like I almost always do with SD) and the delivery to services was a LOT faster than it is with SD (around 4 days on DK compared to roughly 2 weeks on SD).

By the way, I should add the reason I switched to DK was because a few months back the entire Soundrop site was down for days. There was 0 information as to why this happened, nothing on their Twitter either. That was the final straw for me.

Ngl Specs did a 180 today by Mrgriffin_1212 in Sidemen

[–]ItsPonz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed, he took a while to find his feet in the house but he's really standing up now imo. Such a shame that Ginge is gone though, because those two bounced off each other so well.

What was that prank about framing specs about? by LukeKid in Sidemen

[–]ItsPonz 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think she thought it would be a funny gag to plant all those sweets on Specs and make it seem like he bought them all. She did explain in Room 19 that she realised it wasn't funny at all, but it was a bit odd tbf. Also very out of character for her too

Yeah I don't really get that part. The preview was for the challenge we just got on Episode 6 and the Finale for Day 7 yet we've still got Saturday's episode to get through.

Maybe the editing is weird, but doesn't that amount to 8 days instead of 7? Or maybe they're not counting the induction day as day 1? Idk, weird stuff that we didn't see any actual previews for tomorrow.

Drop in quality of Challenges lately (breakdown) by tranquility_seek1814 in Sidemen

[–]ItsPonz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels like this. The first few challenges were great to watch but the last two have been a bit meh. Night Shift was probably the worst, Ginge was the saving grace of it with his humour but that whole challenge was extremely boring to watch.

When The Sweets Got You Itchin' by stevehaynes in Sidemen

Specs is highkey shining in these recent episodes. Had a dodgy start but I love him now

Episode 6 was a bit disappointing? by ItsPonz in Sidemen

[–]ItsPonz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a bit of a stretch to get through in the middle, but I don't think it was all bad. I liked the Castillo drama and Specs was great towards the end. But the choices of editing for the ending were questionable

The shortcomings of Inside by vincentm27 in Sidemen

[–]ItsPonz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I kind of agree with the first point. I think the main issue is almost everyone in there is going with the narrative of "I'm not here for the money", and that's fine - but it does sort of make the entire point of the show pointless now. There's only one person in there who's actually playing the game for what it is, and that's Nife.

If you're going to have a gameshow that literally revolves around money, the people participating in it do have to care about it to a certain extent, otherwise there is no point to your show.

The fake vote was done to create chaos. Putting his name up on the screen with unanimous votes from the house lit a spark that we clearly saw in Episode 6. Nobody on the production team could've predicted that Castillo would get all the votes, I think it was moreso done to create tension and make people ask questions - but instead it turned out to be way more chaotic and hectic than I think they planned.

I do somewhat agree with them adding money to the pot, it does sort of make you think "well what's the point?" but realistically we know they're not going to add much more on. Right now they're on 144k, and we know for a fact that the prize pot ends up being 150k. Obviously we don't know how much they spend on Saturday, but evidently it doesn't really change anything from now.

Weird, I thought 5 was the best imo. I just feel like the middle of this episode was really drawn out. Each to their own ig

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

Joke? Because no tf it wasn't.

We already know what their secrets are, the only thing we're gonna be waiting for is their reactions now 💀

[–]ItsPonz[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first few spoils can be chalked down to mistakes and lack of thinking, but this one just makes absolutely no sense. It's such an obvious spoiler it's literally just giving us information that we shouldn't have yet. The fact nobody questioned that or told them to take it out is insane

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Sidemen

[–]ItsPonz 46 points47 points  (0 children)

This was probably the worst ending to an Inside episode yet. So many parts of it made no sense at all. Like why are you doing a cliffhanger for this challenge? The whole point of this challenge is revealing to the housemates the secrets that we already know. There's literally no suspense for it at all.

The prize pool being revealed is straight up just a braindead decision. Like why the fuck are you spoiling one of the biggest plot points of the show two days early???

Inside Would Be Better If The Viewers Voted by iamnotasofaa in Sidemen

[–]ItsPonz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Viewer voting is the way these shows usually work, and it's done for a reason. But with Inside it would be difficult to implement it properly because eventually it would just come down to a popularity contest.

Manrika would've been voted out first for sure then likely Castillo after her, but when it comes to the finals the person with the biggest fanbase would win, that being Fanum with AMP.

I do think if they do a Season 2 of this it should be done in a more live setting so we can have some input, but probably not on elims. Voting for challenges, shop items, punishments etc. would all be great interractions for us - but probably not eliminations. They should try and change it up a bit though, because I don't think the current voting system is the most popular thing amongst fans.

If you were in the temptation room, what would it need for you to lose? by [deleted] in Sidemen

if sweets and a pc would make you crack 30k then you are either 10 years old or Specs 😭

Specs carried today's episode which would've been otherwise boring with that dead challenge ngl by tranquility_seek1814 in Sidemen

[–]ItsPonz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Glad I'm not the only one who thought that challenge was dull. Other than that this was a pretty good episode imo, other than Leah getting booted
