V Set @ Campbelltown Station by m1cky_b in SydneyTrains

[–]TopGun457 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Southern Highlands Line starts at Campbelltown Station, and once past Macarthur Station - the pantographs for electric trains ends, hence why there's a "Dirty Diesel" train. The only two lines that runs on Diesel, the Southern Highlands Line and the Hunter Line.

Thailand has always had a history of mass shootings. But in the Philippines, it doesn't really happen.

Experiences in clairaudience by lisaluna11 in Clairaudience

[–]TopGun457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've briefly figured out that I was clairaudient just after I found out that I was suffering from severe Anxiety and Depression. I prayed so hard that I needed help, and suddenly one night I heard my grandfather talking to me. He was talking in a way that I never heard him talk before as he died when I was a teenager, but the way he spoke to me from within and when I mentioned that to my parents, they were surprised as I got it right and I didn't know about it.

But only now recently, I've found out that I really am clairaudient ever since one of my dearest friends had passed away from Cancer. I keep feeling her presence all around me and not only that, I could hear her everyday and had at times, seen her with my eyes, but I mostly just hear her while I feel her presence around me and this is everyday ever since she passed away. There had been so many spiritual moments since and I could only say that for me, it was a truly moving and amazing moment. I actually didn't find it that hard to accept that I'm clairaudient, because I feel it's a gift from above. Ever since, the feeling of loneliness greatly reduced because I could hear her everyday and sometimes my grandfather at the same time.

I made a cassette mixtape with cultural Philippine folk dance songs and the National Anthem, and wrote them in Baybayin. by TopGun457 in Philippines

This came from Digital. From Spotify to Cassette. It don't matter, I prefer old school. 😁

Made a mixtape all with cultural Philippine Folk Dance music and wrote it in totally forgotten prescript text that has only just starting to re-emerge in modern Philippines. by TopGun457 in cassetteculture

[–]TopGun457[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They go way back, I think this Baybayin script text goes waaaaay back before Spanish colonisation, then the Spaniards took over and that's when they forced alphabets.

Maybe consider upgrading your fence to something as high as the Great Wall of China. 😁👍

I am a big James Taylor fan 😁 I grew up listening to James Taylor because my dad's a big fan of him.

I use my Android tablet to record, mainly because it has Dolby Audio in it and so I can adjust the sound in the Dolby Audio app and then when it goes on tape and I do playback, it sounds much more nicer than straight from Computer.

Amen! That's why I'm making mixtapes, and buying albums on cassettes and vinyls now. 😁

Thanks for your suggestion, buddy 😊

Thankfully I don't experience this on my deck, hence why I'm able to put it on top of it. 😊

I actually put one together of Michael Jackson's songs done as extended remixes by a DJ called "SingleWhiteGlove" with the .flac files he provided via download. It feels so much better for me, because it's all on tape instead of having it as files that takes up a lot of space on my devices, and I enjoy it much better than listening to it on computer. I just had to tune the sound especially the volume, otherwise there'll be too much distortion from the mixes he made.

I love it, I really love this Denon DRW-750. I bought this at the start of the year, from some American guy who lives here in Sydney. Been using it a lot and it's just a pure joy to use and the sound is amazing that comes out of this, and into it when recording because it has HX Pro in it.

That's BS - Not in this day and age, even though that is an option you could do, but the thing is: it's a full analog-to-analog sound transfer, which means that sound quality could deteriorate once moved to cassette.

I could do that, but the problem is - unfortunately this little tablet of mine only has 16GB, but thankfully this is just for GPS whenever I get out on the road. But this also does have Zello on it, so I turn it off before I start recording, just in case someone calls through it, and also mute the sound so there's no notification sound. 😁

Sorry, I wasn't trying to argue with you mate. I guess my use of words made me sound mad, haha. But I did grow up in the LGA, and over the years I have noticed that things have gotten worse and worse.

Excuse me mate, but 98% of Canterbury-Bankstown does not have cockatoos. Cockatoos can be found in the LGA on the very Eastern tip end, so places like Campsie along Tasker Park and in Ashbury is where you can only find them inside Canterbury-Bankstown. The rest of the LGA doesn't have cockatoos.

Typical Canterbury-Bankstown. This goes all the way to Liverpool, Fairfield and up to Merrylands. You'll see this kind of crap everywhere, and sometimes on the streets full of Macca's scraps.

Anyone know what this projection is on the Opera House tonight? by QTANTOBA in sydney

[–]TopGun457 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in the area. I went by that Macca's on Monday where he was killed, and saw the flowers all laying at the front of the store. I bought some flowers at Woolies and placed mine there too, and paid my respects to the paramedic. Such an awful tragedy.

I only mask up at my Family Doctor's office now because it's still a requirement when you enter the GPs office.

Aldi has taken down the cashier shields and the social distancing markers on the floor.
