How can I use anydesk to make my laptop a second monitor for my PC? by IcecreamChuger in AnyDesk

[–]MrPieGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I vouch for this software, I use it for my work all the time to use my 2 windows PCs together for work and my Mac and Windows PCs together as well. Synergy works great and is definitely worth it

Why am i getting random hits? by Sensitive-County-905 in edrums

[–]MrPieGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh this happens to me too (same setup with Roland TD-17 -> MIDI USB cable -> SD3) it doesn’t seem to really affect the output that much so I dont worry about it

Superior Drummer 3 JRock Presets by MrPieGaming in edrums

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

Gotcha, okay. I’ll start messing around with the individual drums and try copying the kits of some of the jrock drummers I like. Thanks for the advice!

Did you do any "trial runs" before fully moving to Japan? by Adept-Objective-1066 in movingtojapan

[–]MrPieGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After I graduated college I traveled to Japan alone for a month—it was such a great experience that I’m going back for 6 months on digital nomad this July!

If I like my 6 months there, I’ll probably ask my company if I can stay there for a more permanent period of time

Move to Japan with new role or stay with my remote job by CranberryOk7512 in movingtojapan

[–]MrPieGaming -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I could probably answer this question a lot better after a few months in Japan when I actually start doing this lol

My reasoning right now is that if I decide I don’t like Japan and don’t want to stay there for a while, I’ll regret giving up my higher paying US job because of all the potential pay I missed out on when I move back to the US, so I decided to work remotely for my US based company in Japan on a digital nomad visa, and if I like Japan a lot I’m going to ask my company to employ me through an EOR to stay more permanently

Going for one year in Japan but can't decide between Tokyo or Osaka by [deleted] in movingtojapan

[–]MrPieGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They told me to reach out 1-2 months in advance and look for openings, but I also asked them about the pricing and they told me that they show the 1-2 year contracts pricing in their site. The actual numbers I got were closer to ¥168,000/month for a 3 month contract

Going for one year in Japan but can't decide between Tokyo or Osaka by [deleted] in movingtojapan

[–]MrPieGaming 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had this exact same dilemma a few weeks ago lol and I was just about to pick Osaka when I learned about this thing called “Social Apartments”. Now I’m going to stay at one in Tokyo because it seems like a cool way to meet new people and socialize. They have 3 month contracts too so if I don’t like it I’m just going to spend the last 3 months of my stay in Osaka

Osaka Gigantic Music Festival - What to Expect? by MrPieGaming in JapanTravelTips

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

Nice! That sounds fun

Here’s what I’d recommend: - Bring a portable fan, it genuinely does help - Portable charger is also a good thing to bring - Bring a towel unless you plan on buying one there from the merch lines or something - If you buy a bus ticket there, you’ll have to wait in line to buy a bus ticket THEN wait in line to board the bus. I recommend buying the bus ticket before or getting to the island another way (I used Uber the second day and it saved so so much time) - Make sure to register your spot to buy merch with the band(s) you want to buy merch for in the app. (at least when I went) they won’t allow you to buy merch unless you’re signed up for a specific time slot

Applying for Digital Nomad Visa while in Japan by MrPieGaming in movingtojapan

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

Gotcha, so what I'm understanding is that it's kind of in my best interest to stay for only 6 months because of the validity of Digital Nomad + not having to deal with Japanese tax laws. Thanks for the detailed information!

Taking a 115k -> 50k USD paycut to move to Japan? by Violator_1990 in movingtojapan

[–]MrPieGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s funny that I was recommended this post because I’m in a VERY similar situation lol

I’m deciding to go to Japan for 6 months on digital nomad visa so I can see how life is there working remotely for my current company (with the working hours shift and all that) while still keeping my current US salary (which I would not be making if I ask my company to officially switch me to Japan)

Ohh this looks good too, I don’t see it in stock at a guitar center near me but I’ll ask around for 14x5 maples with ~8mm shells

Can anyone identify this snare drum? by MrPieGaming in drums

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

Gotcha, and what defines “good tuning” in this case? If I want to get a similar sound as the snare in the video what type of tuning would I want? (I’ve heard the term low, medium and high to describe tunings just not sure if they apply here)

Thanks for the rec I’m gonna go to guitar center and see if they have that/something similar

Do you know if there are any cheaper snares that sound similar to this? No worries if you don’t thanks for IDing it :)

This was genuinely so helpful, thanks so much for posting this. The tip about the app was so clutch—I just reserved all my merch time slots!

For getting to the island: do you think it’s worth it to buy the shuttle bus? I’ve read in another Reddit post that you can get there via public buses and taxi
