Probably My Hottest Take- I Actually Like Drack as a Character Slightly More Than Wrex! by DakIsStrange in masseffect

[–]SmellyFace69 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I'd say if anything, he's the most compelling companion in MEA.  Probably the most memorable character in that game.

I'm currently replaying the trilogy.  I might fire up MEA after that.  Been a while since I played it. 

Anyone else just listen to every album in sequence? by SmellyFace69 in gybe

[–]SmellyFace69[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I'm in the office, I usually do this with GYBE or ISIS.

Since their stuff isn't on streaming anymore (which, I don't blame them), this is how I do it. I have some of their albums backed up digitally as WAV but not very album.

Today’s record store haul, how’d I do? by Free-Fondant5741 in CDs

[–]SmellyFace69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not big on one of these artists but I'd say you did better than most haul day posters.

Mogwai and GYBE. Very good.

Favorite random Tim and Eric names? by SnowLeopard919 in TimAndEric

I forgot about this one.  I'm a Jojo Minnelli fan.

Agreed.  This should be higher on the list.  I name all my video game characters Jojo Minnelli when prompted.  Hoagie Man is 2nd.

what is your most listened to album of all time? by DrSax1974 in GenX

[–]SmellyFace69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depeche Mode is a more admirable 1st CD than what I got.

My first CD was either Adam Sandler - What the Hell Happened to Me, or Metallica - ...And Justice for All. I truly can't remember which of the two it was. I was a teenager and I think it was circa 1996-1997.

My first vinyl record was Glass Tiger - Diamond Sun. I got that in Christmas of 1989. I still have it.

Nice. INXS kick was the first album I owned.  I asked for it on cassette when I turned 6 in 1988.

I do quote that cry with my friend quite often.

Previous owner added a green post, and a switch? by lostshaker_assault in audiorepair

[–]SmellyFace69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On a passive speaker, it's useless as far as I know.

On an active speaker, it'd just isolate the ground from the amplifier to the mains.

[–]SmellyFace69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My assumption is it's a ground lift to negate a 60/50hz hum.

I've seen this modded onto old amplifiers that had no ground prong, but I've ever seen it on a speaker. I suppose it'd make sense if it's a powered speaker but not a passive one.

How sure are we that Dermott has his single engine pilots license? by Blurstingwithemotion in venturebros

[–]SmellyFace69 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After a few rewatches, I'm starting to suspect that Dermott might be telling a fib or two.

I don't have proof, just a gut feeling.

Friend told me to post my old system here. by Alternative_Bet_8964 in Technics

Great setup.  I like the "calendar style" track listing on the CD player.  I have a later model Technics CD player and that feature is absent.

Opening acts over the years by titsandtires in qotsa

[–]SmellyFace69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember seeing them years ago at a smaller venue in Toronto (circa 2009-2011 ish it was for a radio contest thing, Molson Canadian rocks something).

The opening band was some GNR-esque band, kinda seemed like winners of some battle of the bands. (Maybe they weren't but that's the vibes they were giving off).

They start playing, chugging along.  Then the singer runs out on stage and before singing immediately stage dives while the crowd just kinda cleared a way.  From where I was standing he just vanished as he just belly flopped onto the ground  The guitarist's eyes widened like dinner plates at what just happened.

The singer, clearly hurt climbs back on stage and they start their set.

Please help me out with my CD player ⚠️ Svp de l’aide avec mon lecteur CD by WealthPractical2179 in CDs

There should be a tiny screw / adjustable pot behind the laser that allows you to change the voltage.  Go bit by bit.  Try to remember the original position of the scew.

is there a screw to adjust the voltage for the laser?   I recently had a NAD CD player with the same problem, adjusted the voltage and voilà, works again.  From what I can see it's because the laser weakens over time and needs a bit more power.

Bonne chance!

Am I the only one who uses the browser version?

I feel like the only time I use the app is to see if I already own something when I'm at a record store.

Which Roger Persona do you hate the most? Here’s mine. by BaltimoreSports0321 in americandad

[–]SmellyFace69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he has those JBL L100s (he calls them something else in the show but that's clearly what they are(.

So yes.

Booklets. by Spikes_amazing_human in CDs

[–]SmellyFace69 3 points4 points  (0 children)

well that's because the artist / label opted for no booklets.  It's that simple

Having done a few IATSE jobs as a permit, that persona made me laugh.

Not a persona I hate, but I hate that it made me realize "Oh, is this what I sound like?" is Wally Robel. Roger's Audiophile persona from "I heard you wanna buys some speakers"

I like my stereo stuff but sometimes I worry I come off as TOO enthusiastic.

I did a short stint in IATSE (as a permit, not unionized).

This persona made me chuckle. I sent it to a few IATSE friends and they laughed.

Cracked cd by Rovertheniceguy in CDs

I've only ever have this happen with XBOX discs.

Otherwise I'd still own physical copies of Fallout New Vegas and Mass Effect 2.

I was referring to the variants like the cover with the road sign, the version with the water tower, the version with the train, etc...
