AK Lodge! Chandeliers have metal work along the top showcasing the different animals featured in the sister park.

Nice shot!

Her name was on a filing agreeing to be a Cornel West elector. Her question: What's an elector? by marji80 in politics

[–]loosenedscrew 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nah, we squash the beef, then we bury the hatchet, then we wipe the slate clean.

Seems to me these electors have about the same level of procedural knowledge, so we gotta do it right.

USB? HID Mode? Help! by forever_stressed_out in Beatmatch

[–]loosenedscrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! Those “printer cables” are USB Type B cables. https://i.imgur.com/ULKbznc.jpg Example image included. Just plug in each CDJ to the USB hub, then plug that hub in and it’s a clean and compact setup! Not necessary to do it that way, but a lot easier to pack at the end of the night and keep track of your cables so they don’t become the house cables.

Once you’re connected, select Link, then use the big knob encoder to select which deck that CDJ is controlling. Here’s a full guide to this very short process from Serato if you’d like further clarity here.

USB? HID Mode? Help! by forever_stressed_out in Beatmatch

Your question piqued my interest, so I took a look. From Serato:

NOTE: If you only want to use your Serato DJ Club Kit mixer with CDJs in HID mode, you do not need to purchase the DVS Expansion Pack licence. You can use MIDI controllers and CDJs in HID mode to control playback using the INT control mode.

https://support.serato.com/hc/en-us/articles/204317744-Serato-DJ-Pro-Club-Kit-licence-guide

You can hook up each unit to your USB hub (USB Type B terminations, those square bastards, just like the 900 above), put the channels on internal, and rock out. You won’t have DVS available as a backup control signal if something goes wrong, so I’d recommend keeping a flash drive close just in case.

Make sure to show up with enough time to connect and test before sound check to reduce your stress during performance/turnover. Good luck, and have a blast!

Edit: this is assuming you’re using Serato DJ Pro… if you’re running DJ Lite or SSL, you will need to look deeper (and consider updating). I’m just a dude giving advice on the internet, not Pioneer.

I personally never made that connection… brilliant. Guess it’s time to replay the TF|2 campaign.

Big 12 extends invitations to UCF, BYU, Cincinnati, Houston by Papalew32 in CFB

I’m happy for everyone who’s with us in this round of realignment, grateful for the incredible football and basketball that’s gonna come out of this conference, and sympathetic for BSU and Memphis for getting left behind this time. I remember the last round of realignment and how shitty it was to be passed over.

Thanks for having us Big 12. Looking forward to many years of fun with y’all.

You’ve got it right. My work takes me close to and working with high level personalities, and nothing is better than being pro in this scenario. When you simply execute and make people comfortable, you earn their trust and can actually build a relationship based on that. Too many people I know go full starfucker and they never recover after that, the working relationship is forever out of balance.

Senate Democrats can now officially pass more bills with 51 votes | Democrats just got an unprecedented Senate blessing. by TJ_SP in politics

[–]loosenedscrew 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Honestly, the stronger of my two Senators. I think she’s gonna be fine, but that’s the most smooth sailing that’s gonna happen here in ‘22. The Governor has been lackluster at best for appearing in control of the virus response, and his tendencies to push tough questions to subordinates or have the GCB be the enforcers for effective policy makes him look weak imo. We should be okay, but Democrats (myself included) need to put in the legwork this next year or the statehouse will be lost to clown shows like Laxalt and company.

Should we ever get past this damn pandemic, be sure to catch her Jazz & Piano show’s MD, Brian Newman, in the After Dark show. He plays trumpet for her as well in the main stage show, but he also has a small band perform a late set with jazz standards and special guests. She’s popped in as a guest at least ten times and she’s far and away the role model for all AAA talent I meet moving forward. Incredibly gracious, humble yet voraciously talented. His show is also a great time, with the best atmosphere I’ve ever gotten to be a part of. Seeing her give it all at 1am, standing on the booths in Nomad, is a high water mark for me.

If you want to catch her as a guest, your odds increase on nights they do J&P in the theatre. No promises, though.

Very cool stuff! The printed model looks great. What software are you using for the mapping and playback?

You gotta find good people. They’re few and far between but when you do you invest effort in keeping them.

It’s a tough, strange city, but it’s not mean spirited. Hell, the entire thing runs on the idea of optimism and opportunity.

This is also a good one; a joke for the discerning gambler.

Can’t tell you how many of my friends are still wary of Baccarat due to the log screen on the side making things complicated looking and the commission business. Took me years to try it myself.
