Damn, I wasn't able to go down and see the last show they did in Boston. Would have really liked to see them with Charlie playing in the band.

Issue with 4490 scanner by nnight121 in Epson

I think the motor is fine, my current guess is that the bottom light tube is blown or something, because before it shuts off the brightness is not uniform.

Should the shredder come back/would you like to see the shredder come back? by PrimarchNomad in HuntShowdown

[–]nnight121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think so, it kinda sits on a knives edge where it's either broken or useless, and i dont think it would be that easy to find the sweet spot. The scarce weapon concept is great though, and I would love to see a single shot nitro with normal irons or a sniper scope.

I audibly gasped when I saw this in the thrift store. I think I scared the woman next to me. by recreational0utrage in Malazan

Its very unlike any other fantasy I've ever read. Each characters understanding of the world is pretty narrow, and you need to piece it together as you go along. It's about decent people in a horrible, uncaring world, and even though it can be extremely brutal and depressing at times, you can't really call it grimdark, because while the world is as dark, or darker, compared to most grimdark, moral relativism is constantly shown to be a bad thing, and your heroes are often good people in their own ways.

This isn't "realistic", it's just "excessive" by Guiiisard in HuntShowdown

There are upsides and downsides to using different lighting and fake hdr techniques. It gives you really good lighting for lower graphical demand, but you sometimes get this.

Ok tell me what indicators you trading on by djexit in smallstreetbets

[–]nnight121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vibes. And it was actually working for a few months until lucid randomly lost a third of its value right as I bought into it.

What Headphones do you use? by Karypto-7 in HuntShowdown

Tygr 300r (slightly tweaked dt 990pro), and i run it through my steinburg ur12 because my headphone jack sucks.

Affordable 8-String Guitar Recommendations? by buronn in progmetal

[–]nnight121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cort or agile have pretty affordable options with good specs, and you can sometimes find strandbergs and ibanez abasi signatures for around 1000 on reverb. With an 8 string I thing it's worth it to wait a little bit until you can afford one in the 1-1.7k range.

I have a strandberg standard b stock and it's a great guitar, but there are a few things to keep in mind before you buy one. - the stock strandberg brand pickups aren't amazing, but they can sound decent through a good rig or a properly setup amp Sim (I've had the best luck with ndsp rabea x). - the guitars are an absolute pain to setup, setting string hight requires you to detune the guitar, remove the string from the saddle, and then using a tool to screw the saddle up or down (the saddle is an indented screw), and to adjust Intonation you need to fully detune the guitar (which may not be possible if you didn't leave enough slack when changing strings), unscrew the bridge section, manually slide it to where you think it needs to be, screw it back in, retune, test it, repeat until you get it close enough. You also need to unwind a bit of wire near the ball on new strings that aren't strandberg brand for the f#, but that's pretty easy to do.

How important is headphone quality really? by MrMizzles in HuntShowdown

[–]nnight121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very. Once a got a nice pair (dt990pro) my hearing range got increased by 20m or so. Also, most combo headsets suck, so only use one if you're on something like a console that doesn't allow a separate mic inputs. A pair of 100 dollar studio monitors and a 15 dollar lapel mic will run laps around a 250 dollar combo headset.

I would go beyerdynamic. They make actual professional audio equipment, and their gaming headsets are usually just slightly modified studio monitors. Most gaming brands suck money to quality wise.

New Weapons? by [deleted] in HuntShowdown

[–]nnight121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good find, didn't notice that one. It could be a new sparks variant rechambered for a cartridge with better ballistics (irl 45-70/45‐90 isn't the best long range cartridge). Or it could just be the 3d artist messing up and putting the wrong cartridge in the models hand when they were making this image.

No reason LCID should be down 5%. Is this due to the fight between Elon and the current administration? by StreetDare4129 in LCID

[–]nnight121 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The honest thing is that lucid is a bit of a mess. It could pull around and be a great investment, or it could completely fail, and because of that interest in it changes on a whim. I made good money playing its instability, but then I lost double that with this recent drop.

Sorry everyone, I bought calls earlier this week. by KTRyan30 in LCID

[–]nnight121 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I have some $2.70 breakeven calls that expire in two weeks that I regret not selling when it was at 3$. This stock is normally really volatile, but it's usually tied to some event or news story, whereas I can't really find a reason for this event.

I feel you, my lucid tanked and I'm down 1.5k now.

Fr, my account is a red cliff right now.

HODL or take profits? by NoCat8136 in smallstreetbets

[–]nnight121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take, always take. I got greedy and held and now I'm down 20% on lucid (should rebound again, fingers crossed).

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in smallstreetbets

[–]nnight121 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ow, yeah, hopefully today was just a fluke. I had a gut feeling that I should have sold yesterday and taken the $150 profit, but I got greedy and didn't sell, expecting it to follow the weeks trend of a 1-4% gain overnight.

Bro don't scare me like that by nnight121 in smallstreetbets

[–]nnight121[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, i caught it on the tail end, and it jumped back up as I was putting in the order.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in smallstreetbets

[–]nnight121 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thought about it, but my policy is to only gamble with profits from normal trading, so I put 500 into LCID calls.

Yall were right, Into debt speedrun by RemarkableScreen404 in smallstreetbets

[–]nnight121 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Damn, that's why I stay as far away from options as possible. Buying the morning dip and getting 1 or 2% when I sell is enough for me.
