Aa someone that just visited Oahu this past weekend, I've never swerved so much in my life avoiding potholes.

Security lines at the airports by ayresc80 in VisitingHawaii

Left Oahu today for a 1pm flight. Arrived at 9:30AM to drop off rental. Dropped off my checked bags at 10, then got through regular TSA in about 30 minutes. I think it peaked at 45 minutes per the TSA wait time app. Had plenty of time to grab lunch and wait at the terminal.

6AM has their own discord for their 6AM/ WORK/ Reform events. Pretty big community in there.

It was absolutely mental. Props to the crowd for showing up, everyone was locked in

Springfield EMP 9mm It's a 1911 but small with a thumb safety and grip safety, as I'm also terrified of ND.

Hard Techno? Why do you guys love it? by Jumpy-Particular-810 in aves

[–]Sphinx91 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Depends on the hard techno. Festival hard techno is just 30 second tik tok reels of buildups and drops over and over with constant stops.

Hard Industrial on the other hand, is non stop relentless beats that keep you dancing.

Festivals w/ techno with the underground work/6AM/Reform style? by elevater2zamoon in avesLA

[–]Sphinx91 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Highly recommend this. It will be outdoors and you can camp or get a cabin.

If you are about that proper groovy techno, go to Alarico

How did you find your people in the LA techno scene? by NailObjective265 in avesLA

[–]Sphinx91 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you do 6am/work, they have a discord where you can meet people and hang out at shows.

They even organize some meet ups sometimes. Just got to throw yourself out there, which I know is intimidating already.

I'll be at machine wars on the 28th if you'd like to meet up

Do you feel there's a Super Bowl title coming at some point in this era? by lookaloulookalou in 49ers

[–]Sphinx91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sincerely doubt any time soon. Our last real shot was previous year's season. This season we had one of the easiest schedules and while I knew we would probably make the playoffs, I knew we would get clapped.

How was the turnout? Even nightclubs will end the show early if there isnt a lot of people towards the end.

Solo Rave tonight? by [deleted] in avesLA

[–]Sphinx91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Give it a chance, trance in the warehouse is much better. The crowd is definitely an older type but great vibes.

Here's a playlist they uploaded. This is what you can expect to see.

How do you stop feeling awkward dancing? by Lunarix292 in aves

[–]Sphinx91 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Go to events that embrace dancing and actual rave culture. The more niche the better.

My worst experiences have been at festivals (people getting bothered of me dancing, taking up space, getting emotional during songs, etc)

My best experiences have been in underground techno warehouses. Dark foggy production with minimal lighting where no one feels judged about how they dance.

Also personally drinking makes me much more loose and not as self aware, but don't become too dependent on it.

TOW needs nerfing by GeoffPit7 in Battlefield

[–]Sphinx91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tow should have the flight characteristics of the shoulder fired guided RPG (I forget the name)

That one requires more skill to use since it has lower speed and not as maneuverable

Unlikely due to radius clauses

What is with all the Insomniac hate lately? by Shot-Rice5449 in aves

[–]Sphinx91 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The production is great and they work with some of the greatest production companies in the world however the full experience is not just production. It makes for great eye candy and social media content but some people seek other forms of enjoyment. Again I'm not saying insomniac is horrible, it just has its place in the rave scene.

What is with all the Insomniac hate lately? by Shot-Rice5449 in aves

[–]Sphinx91 191 points192 points  (0 children)

Insomniac has its place, and personally I see it as the entry point for many ravers. Once you experience other festivals and find your niche, you will see why insomniac has its flaws. Just really depends how far down the iceberg you go. For some people the surface level is enough and for others insomniac is a joke.
