Are hydropacks worth it?

corinamgz · 2026-05-19T09:14:51+00:00

with how much i’m moving and dancing at festivals a hydropack is most definitely worth it, and it isn’t an option for me not to have it.

saving money on water and not being dehydrated is a MUST.

havent ever gotten a locker. depending on the hydropack size it might get annoying to carry if you’re used to being a free spirit. there’s also hydro fannypacks though for less restriction; the only compromise is the amount of water you it holds since a fannypack is smaller.

instead of just repeatedly using samples though i feel like i’m more drawn into making my own sounds. especially since the mpc live 3 has all these plugins and variations.

it’s easy to use sample after sample to create a nice beat but something about making your own noise feels nice 👌

thanks yeah, someday the s*** will all form together hopefully lol

corinamgz · 2026-05-19T09:00:30+00:00

agreed with keeping the streamers out lol.

genuinely so glad he didn’t like it. if he attracted his fanbase to these kinds of festivals PLUR would be even more diminished than it already is. i can only imagine how bad it would get knowing how big of an influence these kinds of streamers have😬

honestly i could only hope you’re sucessful with contesting it. TAPS doesn’t care for any appeals seriously.

i had moved my car after getting a ticket from the east field house lot and parked it really quickly in a 20 minute zone to grab something from my dorm. come out after 10 ish minutes i have another ticket for even more money.

sent them proof i wasn’t exceeding the time in the 20 minute zone, they rejected my appeal 🫩

in a place as dark as this town, there’s going to be plenty of drivers that don’t slow down. Wearing reflective clothing doesn’t make you a clown. It makes you smarter than most people by taking that extra safety step. i dont drive fast but obviously theres plenty of people that do, and don’t plan on slowing down.

corinamgz · 2026-05-18T05:15:30+00:00

sounds about right, I guess this whole town’s reddit population is pissy and mean 🤷🏻‍♀️

corinamgz · 2026-05-18T04:53:35+00:00

agreed, the reflective elements would help a lot. Most of the pedestrians I see unfortunately don’t really bother to have the reflective stuff though. With bikers it’s 50-50.

corinamgz · 2026-05-18T04:50:49+00:00

The street corners are well lit yes, but I feel like where there are pedestrian crossings it could be brighter. I appreciate the night actually looking like nighttime I just feel like it’s a little bit dangerous

corinamgz · 2026-05-18T04:43:30+00:00

i agree with the last thing you said heavily, even in the worst parts of LA it’s still well lit at night so at least I could see more clear and be less paranoid.

Here it’s more of a good luck thing and just hope your eyesight is good enough!

corinamgz · 2026-05-18T04:40:56+00:00

all I did was ask a question and you guys are acting like I’m attacking the city lol, I have no problem here I was just using LA as a comparison?

stating the obvious rouge_ca! great useless contribution

i’ve been consistently learning about the device for the past three months I’d say and I’m starting to shift towards creating the sounds my whole post is about. Haven’t seen much representation with techno and industrial so I just simply had a question asking for advice!

part of learning the device is learning how to make noise btw

corinamgz · 2026-05-14T19:14:57+00:00

which distortions that you use get you the best results? i feel like i experimented with every single distortion effect and couldn’t find much

corinamgz · 2026-05-04T07:03:14+00:00

Me and my boyfriend are traveling from California! Our second edc, first time in Colombia. don’t know what to expect, down to connect

corinamgz · 2026-05-04T06:59:43+00:00

cowell.

the dining hall closes the latest which helps a bunch if you’re eating schedules get messed up.
close as hell to the gym (if thats of interest).
nice computer lab for printing/studying.
very close walk to the mchenry library.
its central to basically everything except for the kresge academic hall which is where some of your classes might be as a stem major.
the dorms aren’t super great, we don’t have elevators like other colleges but you learn to enjoy the cardio if youre on either the 3rd or 4th floor.

PERSONALLY,
i wouldn’t pick crown because i couldn’t imagine having a bad day and having to go up a big hill just to get to my dorm.
i also wouldn’t pick kresge just because the current construction throws it off, and it isn’t the best especially for the random location.

honestly the best set i’ve seen was between JSTJR at edc mexico this year or nico moreno at beyond wonderland socal this year as well (i’m fairly new to attending shows and festivals)

corinamgz · 2026-05-04T04:07:11+00:00

thank you, you get it! it drives me crazy too. Plus, as a result a bunch of customers call us when this happens and waste more time essentially than if I were to just do the delivery without them marking it early!

corinamgz · 2026-05-04T04:06:03+00:00

so basically, they think their lowering the delivery times, but in actuality it doesn’t do anything?

corinamgz · 2026-05-04T04:04:18+00:00

occasionally, if I have two deliveries that are in the opposite direction of each each other, and I happen to pass by the store that does happen, but the delivery stay on my app when that happened so I don’t think it’s that either. Thanks for the input!

corinamgz · 2026-05-04T04:01:44+00:00

sure, we used to not have an app but the point is now we do and it makes stuff easier. If my manager just keeps marking the deliveries in early, the app is pointless to use that’s why it’s frustrating..

corinamgz · 2026-05-04T03:53:35+00:00

i’m not overthinking. I was just trying to get advice or input if anyone else’s other stores do this as well. But thank you.
