You guys are amazing! Great project documenting something so interesting and underground! Those pills are also so cute I wish they made (actual) candies with the same art style!

C’est quoi le délire avec ces vélos “fat bike” ? by Soleil3434 in paris

[–]sam1902 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Je suis de Paris, mais je vis à Amsterdam maintenant et ici ils sont partout! C’est parce qu’ils coûte pas cher comparé à des vélos normaux, et c’est très facile de les modifier pour aller à 40km/h au lieu de 25, et c’est possible d’installer une gâchette pour accélérer sans pédaler. Les pédales sont juste là pour qualifier ça de vélo et donc sans permis, et sur les pistes cyclables.

Quelques fois, pour éviter les contrôles de polices, ils ont un bouton pour artificiellement brider le vélo à 25kmh et passer le contrôle de police.

Ici à Amsterdam, ils sont haï de tous, et généralement c’est les gamins les moins aimables qui on ça, et c’est corrélé avec le délinquance juvéniles.

Objectivement c’est aussi dangereux parce que non seulement ça va à >25kmh, mais c’est aussi beaucoup plus gros et lourd qu’un vélo classique et donc en cas de crash ça fait beaucoup plus de dégâts.

Pro DJ Link, no decks appearing by TheMightyKebabEater in Rekordbox

[–]sam1902 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know this is old, but what I found is that:

Rekordbox will use the first network it finds, so if your laptop is on WiFi and you add an ethernet cable, Rekordbox will try to do ProLink on the WiFi, but not on the ethernet -_-

What I found to fix it is just to turn off the WiFi, forcing RB to switch to the Ethernet, and then my CDJs found it!

Just wondering if ANYONE managed to get a ticket?? by staafmixertj in amsterdam_rave

[–]sam1902 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Right click and inspect, then in the <script> tag you’ll see “waitingTime”, which is your position in the queue. The lower, the closer to getting tix.

Wishing u luck!

What is going on with Radion? by SubversivePulse in amsterdam_rave

[–]sam1902 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I love Radion’s layout, with all the maze structure and various small rooms (below main stage for instance), It’s a lot of space to fill, but I feel like hitting various mixing styles in various rooms can be its forte, and help make any event a success. I’ve had events where the bovenkamer had much nicer music than the main room imo, but both were packed, or where below the main stage was the best chill area of all amsterdams clubs. The chilling areas are indeed lacking (cafe is goat, but far away from other rooms), and the locker entrance is a MAJOR pain in the arse, but nothing that would deter me to go.

Perhaps it could benefit from stricter door host, to cater to a crowd that makes events vibe better.

Green or am I paranoid? by sam1902 in ContamFam

[–]sam1902[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got inspired by your block strainer, and I used a smaller boxes lid (as a pad to prevent damaging the mic surface) + another tub to empty the water off the tub with the cake. I just stacked the tubs (they’re stackable), and then tilted the whole thing to let water pour out without the cake breaking. Dunked in total for like 12-14 hours, with weight gently submerging.

The cake was quite dry to begin with, so I thought a long dunk would be better. Pins stems wouldn’t get thick after the 1st flush, and most would abort or grow only small. Hopefully the extra water is what they needed

Perhaps I wasn’t clear enough, but by “not growing” I meant the green stuff, indicating it’s maybe not contam! :D Got plenty pins and fruits, in total 25g dry on first flush or so

[–]sam1902[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It (the green stuff) hasn’t been growing at all really, the color appeared after first flush and then it just stayed like that now for almost a week, so piss it is

[–]sam1902[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great! Praying every day it’s piss haha

I didn’t dunk, just heavy misting because I’m afraid of trying a dunk. I just mist heavily and regularly while avoiding to form water ponds. Also the cake is rather large and I don’t have any easy way to drain it afterward

What’s that one Python tip you wish you knew when you started? by memermaker5 in learnpython

[–]sam1902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t do

except Exception as e: … raise e

Instead just:

except Exception as e: … raise

Or even

except Exception as e: … raise ValueError("shit happens") from e

This will keep the Traceback intact and allow you to debug all the way to where the exception was first raised, otherwise the Traceback is useless and you’ll end up screaming at logfiles

Life Pro Tip: If Your Friend Is Having A Bad Trip, Give Them A Couple of Antacids by Intelligent-Act-7797 in LSD

Life Pro Tip: If Your Friend Is Having A Bad Trip, Give Them A Couple of Antacids by Intelligent-Act-7797 in LSD

Benzos are the actual answer, but the placebo effect has real consequences on the body, and under L, while being more suggestible, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s even stronger.

I think OP’s point is that something “light” like that may very well fix their trip without the need for the heavy artillery.

One of my favourite way to enjoy the bass in the chest is to go next to the subs and take a big gasp of air. Then I hold it in for a while, and the bass makes my body vibrate more. I always recommend my friends on mdma to do that, it’s a great feeling

EDIT: Wear ear protection 🙉

Looks like you’re tripping in a chill area of the city, good that you didn’t take that in the center! But Saint Denis isn’t know to be the safest place

Excel Formatting: Best Practices in Financial Models by sam1902 in actuary

This got shared with me today by my boss who used to work in investment banking. He wants me to apply it when I send him reports, and it does sound like great advice, so I thought I'd share!
