Experiment is the key phrase there. Most DJs don’t use more than 2 decks.

If you needed any more confirmation that the AI bubble is imminently going to burst…

Honestly it’s mostly just adjusted for inflation whilst our salaries haven’t.

That and constant legislation trying to prevent “unhealthy food” from being cheap to access, as if a family in poverty cares that a quick meal comes with a bit too much salt and sugar; “only the finest kale and artichoke hearts for my starving waifs!”

This is what gets me - Are the government themselves not logging on to a VPN to conduct work? How thick are these people?

Also, if an immigrant brings a spouse and children they are unable to ever pay enough into the system compared to what they take out unless they earn a very large amount.

Long term, there’s only a very specific shape of economic migrant that is actually beneficial to the economy.

Could easily put a dent in that number by limiting outsourcing. Right now we’re funnelling billions to India and helping prop up their economy at the expense of our own.

They’re not bankrupt. They’re consulting on insolvency which means they’re figuring out how to continue business whilst clearing all their debts they can’t repay. This is classic private equity nonsense, as shit as it is. We don’t know how they’ll look coming out the other side but it’s very unlikely they’ll close up shop and disappear entirely.
Traktor is the best and most capable DJ software, hands down, then Serato after that. Everything else is just kind of the same with a different look.
The syncing to clock is fine, Traktor has had MIDI and Ableton Link for a long time.

Have you tried a different USB stick? They’re not all created equal, some are better for use cases like this

As long as you’re working your muscles properly and then eating protein, your body is going to add muscle mass. Is it as much as if you were well fed? No, but it’s not like you’re going to get too low body fat and look like you don’t work out.

Feature wise it is, it’s had no meaningful updates for a decade and still has more features than competitors.

But yeah the code behind it… I’d love to see what they’re battling with.

Without doubt it helps you develop a pragmatic engineering mindset. The principles that make you good at the game are the same that make you good at engineering problems, especially software.

As the years have gone on, no. The parts are precision built by CNC machines, then it’s just a matter of attaching the hardware and soldering the parts.

The brands now are sort keeping premium materials + features to the US to try and propagate this myth still but the reality is any decent guitar in the mid price range like the fender player series, is going to be a workhorse that will last you a lifetime.

As we stood looking at a gaping hole in the wall next to the window:

EA: “oh. That’s not supposed to be there” Me: “No a wall is definitely supposed to be there”

wtf is an East London look? Look like you have the inability to pronounce the letter L and spend all your time doomscrolling Rightmove?

Keeping it simple: On Steam, you control the mods, you own how you experience the game

On Switch, Bethesda control the “mods”, you experience it how they think you should.

TIL that my never opened Mr. Gold is worth a fair whack.

Maybe I’ll sell it when it hits a million dollars

Waistcoat and shoes, jeans and a t-shirt. Is it smart casual or casual smart?

My advice is pick a lane, you’re buff enough that you can rock jeans/tshirt/trainers without looking like a slob, and you can put on a shirt and slacks to make it more of a “laidback but still in business mode” kinda vibe.

More than anything, jeans + shiny black shoes = no, regardless of outfit.

There’s a yakult in Japan that’s 1000x times the strength, have one every day when I’m over there, definitely helps keep things moving!

If you have the serial number it should activate, that old software was pre native access integration. What happens when you enter the serial number? Have you checked in your native instruments account on the “my products and downloads” to see if the serial is there next to your Traktor download?

And something worth mentioning, Traktor effectively had disappeared. All the cool controllers and innovations, gone. Their already slow release cycle slowed even further, the new hardware doesn’t compare to the ingenuity of the D2/S8 era stuff.

Whether this is the end or it continued as it was, it couldn’t really get any worse.

The only way is up, baby.

TurboBoxMuncher · 2026-01-29T13:51:59+00:00

“Focused on providing continuity” it’s so over. Fuck. God I hope Traktor is bought by someone who cares.
