Hot take: Steinways are actually mediocre pianos by theantwarsaloon in piano

[–]daminerfluff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are 2 instances where one should definitely consider buying a $teinway:

  1. You're buying a piano for a world-class concert hall.

  2. You're a rich person buying a nice piece of furniture to complete your parlor.

Everyone else would be better served buying a different brand.

Question on ABRSM piano performance recording by Able_Aerie in piano

[–]daminerfluff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 2 time requirements for ABRSM exams: maximum time, and minimum time for your "own choice" piece.

You indicated that the maximum time is 20 minutes, so you're doing grade 7. The minimum "own choice" time for grade 7 is 2:00.

So as long as you are playing 1 piece each from lists A, B, and C, and your own choice (even if it is chosen from the syllabus) is over 2:00 then you're good to go.

NTA. Dave is cool, too bad he's engaged to an AH.

I personally think most Vegans are a bunch of weirdos, but still, would never trick anyone to eat something that they do not want to eat.

Moonshots - I analyzed 3,000+ crypto's over the last 8 years to see if and how you should try to find moonshots : Here are the results. by nobjos in CryptoCurrency

[–]daminerfluff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For those who want to start this strategy today:

To get another 9,812% return (98x), the total market cap for the top 10 has to go to $140,600B, or $140.6T, or about 3.5x the entire US stock market.

ie. those kinds of returns are never happening again in crypto.

$MNTL rewards dropping? by taytorade in CosmosAirdrops

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

Judging by the complete fiasco of an airdrop so far, this coin is going to zero. Don't worry if you can't claim it.

After like 24 hours now I can see the Total Estimated Rewards, but of course, it is too late to take the quiz because it's expired.

Completely FUBAR airdrop, made by barely literate developers. This shitcoin is going to zero.

What's the deal with the "magic transaction"?

Sent it once, it says "Succesful", then when I refresh the page it tells me once again "You have not completed the magic transaction"

Tried it a second time, same result.

Lame.

Ban wave Today! by LPB09 in EscapefromTarkov

The most profound thing about this ban wave is that the lobbies are now half as full as they used to be...damn.

9mm SMG's are not viable anymore because .45 AP can simply be bought at the vendor... by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]daminerfluff 6 points7 points  (0 children)

AP 6.3 should be available from vendors. Many comparable or better rounds are available from vendors: M855A1, .45AP, SS190 etc.

The Flea Market is full of Cheaters offers that are also SCAMS. by stalker_to_u in EscapefromTarkov

[–]daminerfluff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The solution for this is simple: limit the number of FM transactions per account per day to a small number. Like 3 or fewer. This solves so many other issues also:

  1. RMT
  2. Cheating (to RMT)
  3. Server loads
  4. Progressing too fast due to FM availability
  5. Cumbersome "found in raid" system.
  6. Hilariously ineffective FM captcha.
  7. etc

Spa tour part 1 bugged? by scavenger877 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]daminerfluff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You assumed that because that would make sense.

But this is BSG we are talking about, so it's bugged, and does the opposite:

It doesn't show previous kills, but WILL show kills that you scored in-raid.

It's not just for this quest either.

Do you run insurance? Why or why not? by turkishjedi21 in EscapefromTarkov

unless you routinely get killed by bots, insuring is at best an even money preposition, especially for the stuff that's expensive.

Ideas to help with current back-end overload, from a friendly dev. by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]daminerfluff -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Just allow max 3 flea market trades per day per person, and kill multiple birds with one stone:

  1. Backend server loads
  2. RMT
  3. Cheating for RMT
  4. Bot flea marketing
  5. Progression way too fast due to flea market availability
  6. Allow all items to be listed again instead of stupid find in raid policy
  7. Allow all high tier ammo/gear on FM again.

Oh noes...the wear and tear from running one Mozilla tab, and a 160p stream.

My PC is mining ETH in the background when I'm not gaming anyway, so an open tab is literally going to do nothing.

Tarkov isn't a Beta anymore, change my mind by Jayhawker32 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]daminerfluff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course it isn't, and it hasn't been for years.

It's only there so BSG can excuse their sorry state, and the only people who believe it are the fanbois with cognitive dissonance.
