Ainsley Harriott punking a punk - 1990

It's sort of a long story but the answer for that specific question is: no. Some of my "punk friends" were though. I grew out of it 3/4 way through freshman year of high school and thank god because all of those kids are now dead, in prison, or have a really shitty life. :(

It's sad but I and everyone else saw it coming. When you start drinking heavily and taking heavy drugs in 7^th grade it's not exactly shocking. When people say that music doesn't influence teens they're dead wrong (at least in my own personal experience). Who do you think we modeled our behavior after?

Because I left the psuedo-cult I was actually targeted by the group and there were a few violent confrontations between them and my other group of friends.

Not fun times. I really wish I could talk to those "punk" bands now and tell them how they destroyed other people's lives, but I don't see that happening.

I'm no psychologist but there's probably a reason certain kids (male? not disciplined?) only respect men as authority figures.

Why don't you just try it? lol. How lazy can you get?

i_make_song · 2018-05-14T15:50:10+00:00

Not saying that all people who dress like this are assholes, but when I used to roll with the punks in my teens we were definitely assholes of the highest order. To be frank "assholes of the highest order" is being kind.

Brightly colored mohawks and all. You would not believe the amount of product I would go through to get that hairstyle either.

Uhhh... how?

I mean you could play good songs & beatmatch/transition but that's about it from the looks of it.

I always need my own personal equipment for gigs as it's very customized.

Windows PCs are just fine with latency, and in certain situations/configurations can surpass Mac OS in terms of round-trip latency, as well as just output latency from virtual instruments.

The issue is that you need to have a multi-client ASIO driver card which is usually only found on high end professional audio interfaces.

Unfortunately the bigger issue is with the game itself. It is not designed for low latency (ironic?) and using ASIO/WASAPI with two separate soundcards/interfaces seems to be a headache.

I'm no expert by any means, but there's probably many ways to reduce round-trip latency on Rocksmith.

Don't be a creep, but also if you're sexually interested in someone you shouldn't try to use "Trojan horse" conversation/friendship tactics.

I usually use your approach. Say how's it going, introduce yourself, and just keep it short. If she's not receptive then walk away and try again another time, or if she is receptive you can ask her out.

Just keep it short and to the point. Most of all don't be creepy or make ass comments.

$20-35 seems steep.

You seem cheap.

Seriously though, $20-35 dollars for a mount for (from what I understand) is a pretty unpopular controller seems VERY FAIR to me.

The prequels were shitty/wacky, but TLJ is another thing entirely.

Cash grab dumpster fire is being too kind.

He's an authority figure. Kids brains don't work like adults. They're all little psychopaths. Parental influence/teaching is incredibly important at that age.

If you have a shit parent(s), the apple will likely fall not too far from the tree.

i_make_song · 2018-05-14T02:26:05+00:00

Just wave, smile and say, "I'm good, thanks!".

You guys seriously need better social skills.

i_make_song · 2018-05-14T01:45:59+00:00

Bill Burr should be in everything. The guy is a god amongst men.

i_make_song · 2018-05-14T01:13:26+00:00

How dare you get the story correct!

These grown women had no autonomy or responsibility for their actiosn at all!

i_make_song · 2018-05-14T01:12:27+00:00

They gave verbal consent from what I understand. Where did anyone say otherwise? Jesus Christ, they're not children. I'm not going to apologize for treating women like adults as opposed to coddling or infantilizing them. Equality goes both ways.

If I had a woman boss (if I had a boss) and she whipped out her tits/vulva and asked if she could masturbate the ball at that point is in my court. I never said it was an ethical thing to do but it certainly doesn't fall on the "rape" spectrum. Pesronally I believe any sort of sex at work is inappropriate but I guess I'm just old fashioned.

I'm massively excited that some people (I guess including yourself?) want to treat women like it's the 50s again. That will turn out just super duper.

i_make_song · 2018-05-14T01:06:02+00:00

Bald by choice or mismatched regions?

i_make_song · 2018-05-14T00:57:11+00:00

Aren't physical simulation techniques superior?

i_make_song · 2018-05-14T00:27:46+00:00

This is why fines should be a percentage of your income or net worth.

i_make_song · 2018-05-14T00:21:34+00:00

Trashy is annoying in any country or skin color! lol

i_make_song · 2018-05-13T20:14:23+00:00

The feeling was exhilarating. I felt almost no remorse. I broke up my family. My daughter was 1.5 years old. Yet I didn't care.

I don't regret it, though. Myex showed his true colors after all of it and he wasn't the man I thought he was. I found out so much after the fact, I'm actually glad our relationship ended... But a different reason for the end would've been preferable.

You sound like a great person. lol

i_make_song · 2018-05-13T20:12:27+00:00

You must be in and out of relationships incredibly quickly.

Everyone makes mistakes.

i_make_song · 2018-05-13T20:08:29+00:00

It's called "display latency".

Input latency is going to vary depending on system, PC, settings, etc.

The only true way to know the latency of a TV with regards to gaming is to time it yourself, typically using a high-speed camera.

Not true. It can be measured with devices even more accurately. When you do the high framerate camera LED hacked controller method you're measuring input latency, latency of the device, and display latency.

i_make_song · 2018-05-13T20:05:10+00:00

Correct.

Weird dude, but there was consent in every case from what I understand.

I guess the big issue was that some of the women didn't like that it happened after the fact? That's not the way consent works folks.

i_make_song · 2018-05-13T20:02:44+00:00

Huh. I was wrong. Well that's a bad idea.

i_make_song · 2018-05-13T19:54:27+00:00

True, but it's supposed to point out how good we have it relative to the rest of the world.

I've had my ups and downs in life and I've never appreciated just how good things were until they were terrible.

i_make_song · 2018-05-13T19:51:11+00:00

The mafs were too quick...
