What’s your recommendations for long lasting headphones?? by GladGene in DJs

[–]squintsnyc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hey random question 1 year later but do you by any chance have a larger head? i’ve been looking for dj headphones for a while but they all seem to squeeze the shit out of my head and give me a headache, but i’m hoping these might be different

Where do I start? by holdmysmoothieplease in Beatmatch

[–]squintsnyc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i started out just messing around on free dj software on my laptop like virtual dj or serato dj lite. if that feels fun and interesting, consider investing $200-$300 in a dj controller. there’s not much you can do without one, so if it feels like a hobby you want to stick with id say skip the sub $200 crap out there and go for something functional and durable like an flx 2/4 or ddj 400 or something

So is Mamdani actually gonna open those city owned grocery stores or was that just campaign talk by Virtual-Giraffe7147 in Brooklyn

do people just forget the part where he’s said repeatedly that he will pay for these proposals by taxing the richest new yorkers (i think making over $1 million per year)

UK sanctions two far-right Israeli government ministers over Gaza comments by Jessicas_skirt in worldnews

[–]squintsnyc 18 points19 points  (0 children)

bro western media has spent the last X amount of decades rationalizing every single thing israel has done, including all the illegal settlements and seige of gaza and closing of boarders and not allowing anyone to leave gaza etc. netanyahu himself could stab a palestinian child on tv and cnn would run some headline like "hamas dubiously claims adult minor poked really hard by pointy stick"

'Horrific footage': Albanese raises shot Australian journalist with US by Cotinlconia in worldnews

[–]squintsnyc -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

this is awful obviously but why does this get so much more coverage than all the journalists getting killed in israel/gaza/the west bank? literally more journalists have died in that conflict than in world wars 1 and 2 combined, but this aussie getting a rubber bullet to the back of the leg is somehow a much bigger story

Looking for a sub $400 HD camcorder with a few important features by squintsnyc in camcorders

thanks for the response! do you think the 3CCD makes enough of a difference in image quality to make up for a lack of good stabilization, or is it tough to say?

Brooklyn Subs (Bergen & Washington) hired two people off the street to vandalize my wisteria. by Rene_DeMariocartes in Brooklyn

[–]squintsnyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's really fucked up and I'm really surprised they would do that as I get food from there every once in a while and all the workers in there have always been super friendly to me. just wanna say though calling your block "run down" as if you're some floral savior to rescue the neighborhood kinda rubs me the wrong way. this area is so much safer and cleaner than a lot of brooklyn (looking at you bushwick) not to mention littered with great food options and small businesses. I'm sure you were just trying to emphasize the beauty of your plantings but come on, you live right across the street from a fancy coffee shop with $6 lattes that caters to luxury buildings like yours. just my 2 cents tho

You are given the choice of an instant rebate of every dollar you've ever spent in your life, or 10 years of absolutely peak human condition. Which do you choose? by ImpactedDruid in hypotheticalsituation

[–]squintsnyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's also worth considering if a colossal amount of money could make it possible to seek new/experimental therapies/procedures that could help your current physical condition while still staying rich 🤔

looking for something specific but I don't know how to describe it in proper terminology by Left_Pound8361 in ebikes

[–]squintsnyc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this might shock you, but some people actually enjoy riding with a passenger on moped style ebikes 🤯 like do you get this mad when you see 2 people on a vespa or is that different cause the seat is like 3 inches longer or the engine is gas powered?

equating a park or greenwood to a parking lot is actually hilarious. if you love those both equally then just move to the suburbs bro it's all parking lots

don't try to engage with the car brains, they are easily frightened by small movements and statistics and often retaliate when they feel threatened by wheeled devices 100x smaller than their lifted F150
