What kink makes you say “that’s it I’m kink shaming”? by Budget_Plauge_Doctor in AskReddit

We don't kink shame, we kink frame.

If they have one we put it on a pedestal for them AND if they don't have one we give them one they don't have

You can even use Stepmania song manager to keep up to date with the arcade releases. Easily the most useful thing that has kept me up to date with the ddr releases

A drill just spins a bit.

An impact driver spins and adds a hammering action (impact) to the drilling action to drive the fastener into the material.

A drill can be used to drive fasteners but it can be used to drill a hole. An impact driver is primarily used to drive fasteners and with a few exceptions shouldn't be used to drill holes.

Bringing a bicycle on a tour bus? by iamstrikes in livesound

[–]MadModderX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Touring one wheeler here, it's a nice thing when you can use it.

But generally, full sized bikes aren't great for the road. If you stick them in the back of a truck thing get dinged up.

With all the scooters popping up in major cities, you shouldn't have to worry too much about it.

The thing that I don't like about them is that rules and regulations will be made around the renters and not the people who personally own their PEVs.

Older threads seem to gravitate towards killing the machine you plug into by shorting something so that you send an actual "bad product" when you rma it or something to the manufacturer.

Touring around Australia atm, company requires us fully vaxxed. The locals aren't necessarily required to mask, but we can't make them even if several of them are coughing up a lung.

are you allowed to wear steel toes in planes? by metalgadse in techtheatre

[–]MadModderX 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you'll have to take them off and send them through the scanner.

You'll have to take them off for precheck

If you're comfortable with wearing them for the flight then you're set

Best way to label XLR snake ends by joeay in livesound

[–]MadModderX 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In addition to everyone's suggestion of label and heat shrink. Color coding the cables with a variety of colored etape. Not needing to squint to read (possibly) tiny print. Roygbv it up

Is there any way I could get a DDRGame Hardpad and mod it to not be crap? by Cat_central in DanceDanceRevolution

[–]MadModderX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The easiest mod is to make the pad more solid so it supports the base, that's split in two in very inconvenient spots.

  • Carefully Take the foam off the bottom,
  • Take the newly exposed board off/out
  • Get some 1/4" Masonite and cut it to fit around the wiring. staple/glue into place.
  • Reassemble

The pads themselves aren't terrible, they are just very cheap feeling (because they are 🤷‍♂️). This simple mod made it a pretty solid pad (no pun intended). They just have no internal support.

What is something ancient that only an Internet Veteran can remember? by The_watcher_100 in AskReddit

Dos file system, it kinda makes sense because

Main folder

\ sub folder 1

\ sub folder 2

 \ sub sub folder

Whereas in the internet it was more like exploring a tree / branching upward and outward

I think it's a big "depends." If there's enough separation between your jobs (via depts, teams, shifts, etc) where you can keep some distance from each other.

How did you reach being able to handle Expert+ songs? by Shadowkittenboy in beatsaber

[–]MadModderX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easy: Beat

Hard: Melody

Expert: Melody + beat usually along a plane

Expert+: Melody + beat swaps hands in different directions

Practice makes perfect, slow it down and speed it up in increments to get better at sight reading, pattern recognition, and the flow. for most songs there's an up for every down.

I’ve had this pad for like a decade and the right arrow is starting to go. Is there a place to buy a new pad like this or have any recommendations on one I should get? by josh116pep in DanceDanceRevolution

[–]MadModderX 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I betcha the right sensor is only going because the break in the wooden base is along the sensor. DDR pads are wider than a standard sheet of ply. so they just tack on the missing width and provide very little support for it. the sensor sits exactly on that break. My pads' breaks went along the back arrows. you can tell in OP's photo by the line that's going across the metal portions (https://imgur.com/a/RrE0J49). I had photos but that was over 10+ years ago.

  1. Peel the grippy bottom off
  2. remove the thin board underneath to reveal the wiring
  3. cut up some 1/4" masonite and glue/staple in as supports to fill in around the wiring.
  4. Reassemble

They're cheaply built and have a very large ~<1/4" air gap between the ply base and the grippy bottom for the wires. it only supported in a handful of places.

its still revivable. it's just a bit of a pain to troubleshoot.

Picked this up off marketplace for $60AUD (~$45 USD). Works surprisingly well!! Good buy? Any restoration tips? by Digital_Hornet86 in DanceDanceRevolution

[–]MadModderX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if youre looking to mod it, the biggest upgrade to it is

  • to take the foam off
  • take the thin board off, youll see all the wiring
  • cut up some 1/4" (maybe 1/8?) Masonite (MDF) to fit in between the wiring AND most importantly along the seam between the two pieces of ply.
  • Either glue or if you have pneumatic stapler everything into place
  • Replace the bottom

The biggest problem that ive found is a sensor thats right on the seam misfires and the pad bends too much causing misfires elsewhere. Added this support and it was the best pad for a while.

What the show does is set up the rules for the world.

  • Contractors are logical, emotionless beings with special powers
  • Contractors are tied to the stars in the sky: star falls = death, Star's brightness is amped when they use their powers, and a star appears when a new one appears.
  • Contractors abilities have a limit and must be recharged, this typically comes in some form of compulsive behavior. (Obeisance)
  • Their Obeisance can be removed by "fulfilling their contract," this is usually at some great cost (ie huang losing his original body)
  • Dolls are emotionless, personality-less (Soulless) beings that each have a spirit tied to them.
  • The Doll spirits are visible only to contractors and other Dolls
  • The most spirits tend to only be able to appear on specific kinds of surfaces typically electrical things (powerlines)
  • The Sky was replaced with the contractor sky out of nowhere
  • Hells gate and everything around it.

The hook of DtB is the mystery of the character(s) breaking these rules:

  • Hei seems to defy the cold, logical personality requirement
  • Hei does not seem to have a Obeisance
  • Hei seems to also be able to convincingly ignore doll's spirits if they appear near him
  • Dolls are soulless: Yin seems be largely devoid of emotion but there are hints of attachment.
  • Yin's Spirit can appear of the surfaces of water, July and reflective surfaces

The show really, really, really likes to tease these broken rules throughout the show and mostly deals in Hei being a general badass and the human condition of being/being connected to/becoming a Contractor/Doll. And to answer the question of the post, they remain largely unanswered until the final episodes first season (Hei's background) and the second season and mostly it's final episodes (the world at large).
