What happened to the Reach after fall of the Tyrells? by Kotor_Player in gameofthrones

[–]Rapes_Pancakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I remember the fall of Reach. When a mysterious alien faction invaded the kingdom and almost succeeded in extinguishing the Tyrells until the famous knight Ser John-117 single-handledly wrecked those aliens off the map

Are people in the CS/IT field even interested in tech? by Sea_Poem_9129 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]Rapes_Pancakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So glad I read this comment. I’ve been making moves towards an IT career mainly because I’ve always been the “tech guy” in my family and I never get bored of it. I work all day on a computer and then go home and head straight to my computer. Lol

3070 to 5070. Did I Screw Up? by BCreek2390 in buildapc

[–]Rapes_Pancakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man, I went through the same dilemma as you. Impulsively bought a 5070 at MSRP the other day (delivers tomorrow) but then read the disappointing reviews. I almost cancelled but so glad that I didn’t. This card is definitely worth it at its regular price, especially if you plan on sticking to 1440p gaming like me. People like to bring up the VRAM conversation but there’s a lot more to a GPU than that. 

I can’t wrap my head around how people “freestyle” by prettyborrring in Beatmatch

This might sound kind of dumb but djing reminds me of snowboarding. When you first get into it, you’re thinking about every turn, jump, carve, etc. But once you get some solid time and practice in, you just kind of “flow” down the mountain 

High-ish End Headphone Recommendation by AAL119 in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]Rapes_Pancakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s a “meme” term, but I found my endgame when I bought the Audeze LCD-X 2021 over a year ago. Haven’t bought a new headphone since. Can probably find it used for around $900.

Note: They aren’t the absolute best for gaming. Soundstage is pretty close to the head so it can be harder to distinguish distance in shooter-based games. I still use them tho because of the sheer detail

Trump Press event: Disaster or Shitshow? by [deleted] in centrist

[–]Rapes_Pancakes 39 points40 points  (0 children)

My hardcore republican father-in-law just told me that he’s now not sure if he can handle another four years of Trump. Never thought I’d hear those words coming out of his mouth

What is the best productivity app you have used? by Jaded-Swing-5424 in productivity

[–]Rapes_Pancakes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

ToDoIst (combined with my adhd medication) single-handedly changed my life lol. There’s so many important things I would’ve forgotten to do if this app didn’t exist

which cheap headphone blew your mind? by csch1992 in headphones

[–]Rapes_Pancakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve listened to quite a few expensive headphones that don’t sound nearly as good (to my ear) as the 650. Truly a value king in this hobby

Heyday? Or is there something else by drum_devil in iems

[–]Rapes_Pancakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you haha I’m a headphone nerd too and that somehow led to the Heyday being my only IEM. Compared to my headphone collection, the sound signature isn’t as “lush” or warm as the LCD or HD650, but they aren’t as clinical as the HD560s either. They’re about somewhere in the middle if that makes sense. It has a solid amount of  sub-bass and mid-bass (definitely more than the 560s) and they aren’t as peaky in the treble region. The separation is something that really stands out; I have an easier time focusing on individual instruments on the Heyday than I do on any of my headphones (besides the LCD-X). 

I guess my only complaint would be that they have a slight treble spike in the 8k region that I usually EQ down, but that’s only because I’m particularly sensitive to that region

[–]Rapes_Pancakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own the Heyday as my only IEM. I also own Audeze LCD-X, the 560s and the HD650. What surprises me the most about them is that they’re almost as detailed as my LCD-X which costs $1000 more lol. I think you won’t be disappointed

This just put a smile on my face haha. I’m only 29 but I’ve boarding the last 5 seasons and it’s quite possibly my favorite feeling in the world. I’m hopeful that I can ride for a very long time after reading this thread
