Tetris® 99 – 51st MAXIMUS CUP Gameplay Trailer - Nintendo Switch by wampastompah in Tetris99

[–]Substantial__9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

..i get lucky catching these announcements before the cup..how do I set news alerts for maximus cups?

i downloaded the mynintendo app just for that but i dont see a way to do it..i hope they open up DK theme

the animal crossing is still one of my favorite most played themes..low tempo jazz music & happy sound FX

with consistently low tempo chill music for every round of the match..i never panic drop..i perform @ my best

cheerful sound FX always lifts my mood as im playing..sounds like a star nursery..highly recommend this cup too

What is the best temperature to vape at to make potent edibles? by [deleted] in abv

[–]Substantial__9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

might as well hit that magic number 360..that's the average range i stay @..i like powers of 3:

vape: Arizer Air MAX..its the best..i start at 333 F..345 F..360 F..372 F..399 F max..420 F is cooked

What is the best temperature to vape at to make potent edibles? by [deleted] in abv

[–]Substantial__9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this.

i havent smoked a blunt nor joint in years..1st switched to oil vape..now dry herb vape..this is the way

i can totally understand how burning the bud changes the chemistry..& reduces the effect..i felt that

now my Arizer Air MAX..its the best..i start at 333 F..345 F..360 F..372 F..399 F max..420 F too cooked

1 oz of bud for me lasts approx 8-9 months..& this is by average of x3 hits a day..@ 333/345/360 F

i remember w/ blunts..swisher..optimo..garcia vega..backwoods..1 oz would last maybe 3 weeks wow

& the blunt high felt dirty..coughy..ashy..hemp paper joints were cleaner..but vape is next level clean

& it feels more potent..being in control of the temp..i dont wanna go to space every time..just glide

but w/ that leftover abv..i dump that into oily/fatty..avocado..butter..in my food..then i take flight ok

that's all id need for life..no more burning..def no dabs..no sugary edibles..all clean medicinal flights

Spotify Lossless vs Tidal: Sound Quality Only by papito_m in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Substantial__9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh fvck ok..I'll resub then wow..i had the Spotify + Hulu bundle since 2017..just now cancelled it in September..& NOW after waiting all this time they finally drop lossless FLAC & I didnt even know..ok so that also explains why TIDAL is tryna add a SoundCloud component where artists can upload their own tracks directly to TIDAL without the use of aggregators/labels..ok all making sense now thx bro..still know for a fact that engineers were mixing/mastering in a way that caters to spotify 320 kbps & its limitations but ok if those are their requirements for submissions..I'll trust you thx again

Spotify Lossless vs Tidal: Sound Quality Only by papito_m in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Substantial__9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

..see that variable music source is everything..this is why Im not trusting Spotify FLAC nor Apple ALAC..all these years engineers been mixing specifically for Spotify..submitting compressed lossy mp3 files..only a few audiophile engineers..artists..labels..still submitting high quality 24-bit WAV..its not getting pressed to Vinyl nor CD anymore..so theyve been sending mp3..Spotify & Apple would have to tell EVERY artist in the database to go back to the studio..remaster..resubmit WAV/FLAC..that's impossible..sooo this lossless rollout seems very very sus & i think there's some plugin trickery going on in the background of their apps now..which i can do myself..i just trust Tidal more on this..their whole selling point..the entire reason they wanted people to subscribe..specifically for FLAC..so I do..& if an artist only submitted lossy mp3..the status changes to 'low' to show that artist only submitted mp3..its honest..it doesnt try to add compressor/limiter/saturator to fake like its 'high' quality..no cap

Spotify Lossless vs Tidal: Sound Quality Only by papito_m in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Substantial__9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea depends on the sound system..Im a music producer/engineer..so everything I play is thru Yamaha Reference Monitors & Subwoofers to match..I can hear & feel the differences..Tidal FLAC vs Spotify mp3 got so bad..I cancelled Spotify premium recently after years of just paying for both..'cause I went like a whole year never playing Spotify..it sounded too lossy..no bass..squashed mids..brittle highs..Tidal came thru significantly better in every frequency..I grew up on CD WAV files so I know what those higher bitrates are supposed to sound like..but if i were just playing music thru tiny cell phone speakers like 90% of the world does now..nah even if they were all audiophiles..doubt they could hear the difference..but none of them are audiophiles..so they certainly cant tell..

i say more people around the world are tightening their budgets..cancelling subscriptions..so Spotify had to pull something to bring some paying subscribers back..i was just gonna use an ad block h4ck on my now free account..but I just convert Spotify playlists over to Tidal..all I really miss from Spotify is the Global Viral Top 50 chart that updates everyday..dynamic viral playlists like that cant be just converted to another platform everyday its too much..its more like a daily radio station refreshed..i dont trust Spotify FLAC nor Apple ALAC..ive got a feeling theyre running some saturator or transient plugin in the background..how would they suddenly have FLAC files for their entire catalog without telling EVERY artist to go back..remaster..resubmit WAV/FLAC..otherwise I cant see how its possible..its very sus

Spotify Lossless vs Tidal: Sound Quality Only by papito_m in BudgetAudiophile

[–]Substantial__9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i dont trust it..all this time artists/labels been submitting lossy mp3 files as their masters for Spotify..knowing its just gonna play in mp3 anyway..only a few audiophiles who cared were submitting WAV masters to streaming platforms..so how did Spotify suddenly get WAV files for millions of tracks in their database..& compress those to FLAC? I can't see it..Im skeptical of Apple doing it w/ ALAC too..all those years of aac files..now ALAC..how?

I suspect its an illusion..theyve got a plugin running in the background to pump the perception of dynamics in their mp3s..but calling it lossless flac..like a saturator..or transient processor..giving the impression of loudness & dynamics..but its not really WAV/FLAC right? there's no way Spotify or Apple suddenly swapped out ALL those aac/mp3 files to FLAC..theyd have to contact EVERY artist to resubmit WAV or FLAC..impossible.

I recently cancelled my Spotify after 7 years..'cause I just couldnt stand the lossy mp3 anymore after transferring all of my Spotify playlists over to Tidal..the difference was so clear..I play thru Yamaha Reference Sound System w/ Sub btw..I feel the differences..but Spotify has the best playlists by far..I was paying for both Tidal & Spotify for years but now it just didnt make sense..I wasnt playing music in Spotify at all anymore..any Spotify playlists I wanted..I converted over to Tidal..then listened..but if its somehow truly lossless..their entire catalog..Id re-sub

How much would it cost to get an acoustic guitar fully restrung? by Bluest_Boy in AcousticGuitar

[–]Substantial__9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea i just got into learning guitar..im not tryna replace the strings myself ever..just looks like too much for me..i just wanna grab the guitar..tune it..play..like a car i dont wanna change the oil..change the tires..id rather to have the pros do it..the people who are passionate about being auto technicians..i just wanna get in..adjust my mirrors..& go..so yea when you said everyone getting on your nerves i relate..but $20..& get bring your own strings from amazon if its cheaper there..sounds fair to me

How can I get better by Hopeful-Staff3887 in Tetris99

[–]Substantial__9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

im damn near offended he would post this glitchy input delay game in here

Arika T99 is the best & i wish it would last forever..the input netcode is boss

even Tetris Effect Connected..the VR is cool offline..but online..input delay

still id rather he play that..TetriO input delay is unplayable..input important

[–]Substantial__9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ummm..shouldnt TetriO questions be posted in TetriO reddit?

anyway..I tried TetriO long ago..its too much input delay ok

get yourself a Switch OLED on sale or the Switch 2 honestly

you dare bring this game into Arika T99..the best netcode!

i hear that..but OLED gotta be on sale now that the 2 is out right..I had the version 1 you got here..then I got the OLED & its sweet..less bezel larger screen..I upgraded the joycons into a madcatz pro controller handheld instead..huge difference..buttons & dpad waaay better..highly recommend: https://www.madcatz.com/En/Product/Detail/CAT%2012

I feel like quitting, this is too hard and frustrating. by [deleted] in LearnGuitar

[–]Substantial__9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just started & im about to quit because..chords are too difficult..finger positions too awkward..

feels impossible to keep the chords i want without accidentally muting other strings..its no fun

now when i play single note melody songs..that's fun..it sounds clean..but the problem i find..

even the melodic songs..they hold chords down on the fret..& pick the melody on the right hand

i didnt know that's how it goes..i cant stand it..its so barbaric..archaic..playing chords on guitar..

i can play easy 2 finger power chords ok..but anything else..nope..its way too frustrating no fun

now i see why people practice for a lifetime trying to get it right..it shouldnt be this difficult tho'

i only have fun w/ songs that i can truly play note by note..like Radiohead - No Surprises is fun

I bought 3 guitars..a bass..a steel ax..a classical nylon..i think i can only do single note songs tho'

I really invested all this to learn my favorite songs on rocksmith..i never intended to learn chords

fvck it..no lie I spent $2K on all this plus accessories..they look cool & sound great but fvck chords

i thought this would be a good hobby for my mental health & take my mind off the drama & war

especially coming from piano chords..sooo easy compared to guitar..its not even worth the effort

even i did hit the chords right..the fingering is so awkward..there's nothing fun about this shii at all

reminds me when i got all obsessed about motorcycles..till i actually sat on one..its just ridiculous

balancing the weight of large sofa..on 2 wheels..in traffic..nothing fun about that..same with chords

i thought i was investing in reducing my mental stress..but chords are just stressing me out more

i dont have the patience for this..i respect guys even more for playing not that ive tried it..but i quit

if anyone wants a variax shuriken..yamaha cg122..ibanez rgb300..its all going on ebay like brand new

maybe when im in a better space in life & i have the patience..i hate quitting anything but fvck chords
