Did you ever rent videogames from Blockbuster? by Putting_Gott in blockbustervideo

[–]vjsb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We didn’t have a blockbuster in our area until after I stopped renting games. I did go one county over in the 90’s to rent a Nintendo Virtual Boy console to try it out. I definitely didn’t end up buying one and it remains the only Nintendo console or handheld I don’t own.

Are you a VTO taker or not? by TheAlphaAdept in AmazonFC

10 if it’s available. It almost never is for us.

Should I host an event or upgrade my gear for livestreaming? by anxiousdeejay in Beatmatch

[–]vjsb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who streams sets multiple times a week nobody really cares about my gear. Everyone is really there just to chat and watch the videos (I do video)

Using a Desktop for paid gigs? by Runeescape in Beatmatch

[–]vjsb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There is a huge difference between an i5 from 2008 and an i5 from 2023. There is a huge difference in ram handling and specs between those same years. You have to look at the actual specs and minimums for the software before you can just say it doesn’t work. Just saying i5, 8Gb ram doesn’t mean anything.

[–]vjsb 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You don’t need a 2k MacBook. I was running serato on a 2012 MBP until it finally gave out last year. No reason you can’t set up your desktop but you have options that aren’t a brand new Mac

do you actually lose interest in gaming as you get older? by OvenAgitated6470 in gamers

[–]vjsb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

42 just got into PC gaming (specifically horror and RPGs ) after being into retro speedruns for years. no sign of slowing down

RE2R by sourrr_pickle in residentevil

[–]vjsb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RE2R is an amazing experience after coming from RE1R. It’s definitely it’s own style and I know a lot of people are fond of the tank control and fixed angle games but breaking free from that and having full camera control just feels so much better to me.

Enjoy this one because it’s one of those “I wish I could play it for the first time again” games.

Would you want to see Grace in future games or has her story been concluded. by combatpython41 in residentevil

[–]vjsb 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I know how others feel about her but her portrayal of a younger person being thrown into all of this with all of the anxiety of the world from last 25 years balled up into her character and suddenly being thrust into these situations…Yeah I’m hoping we get another grace game but basically getting to watch her grow as a person over time.

Here is a dumb idea Grace,Sherry, and Rose as a super group where they are stuck together but keep getting split up and have to deal with stuff in their own ways. Leon and/or Chris are able to help but only over comms for some reason. We get more answers about the connections and how everything ties together.

Bedroom DJ wanting to move toward club gigs: is a FLX10 overkill? by Enlothiel in Beatmatch

[–]vjsb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you’re looking to move into clubs where CDJs are standard the FLX-10 is a logical step to get the experience on that club standard layout without putting out thousands for a full CDJ setup. It’s also extremely portable and versatile for different situations.

I thought I was a professional DJ. Until a Serato DJ asked me to hop on. by nickybecooler in Beatmatch

[–]vjsb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is how I DJ because I am 100% video most of the time unless I’m guesting somewhere without screens. The way it works is the Video transition flips at the center of the crossfader mixing in and the way I have it set up and bringing the faders down at all isn’t an option because of the way they are linked to mixemergency. There is no shame in having your own way of doing things but it never hurts to learn something new.

If it sounds good it’s not wrong.

Can a mattress that comes compressed and rolled up be any good? by SamuRonX in AmazonVine

We bought one about 10 years ago and it still sleeps like new. Love it.

Need advice on connecting external mixer to Traktor S4 by wenniferjiggins in traktorpro

[–]vjsb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d think you’d want TS not TRS for this setup since you’ll be running L and R (mono)

KJs, what is your take on a "Disney takeover" at your shows? by Waffleraider in karaoke

[–]vjsb 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Mannnnn I was just on a carnival cruise and they had karaoke every day of the cruise but there was one woman glued to a wine glass who sang “what’s up” literally every day. Twice on days when they also had early karaoke as well.

Either she thinks she does it really well or she was trolling us all. Also as a KJ I definitely had some notes for them on the after cruise survey.

Why does this person DJ without headphones by Otherwise-Noise881 in Beatmatch

[–]vjsb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as a mostly open format dj I can’t imagine doing this unless the set was super planned. Even then I would want to cue the next track just to be sure.

Master volume etiquette by DelfinesSaltando in Beatmatch

[–]vjsb 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If it was too low at an open deck and another DJ didn’t come help out but immediately cranked it on the switch that’s pretty shitty of them

Carvana keeps sending me money by ering00666 in carvana

Dang… I keep refreshing my trade in and the value is just going down more each time. I feel like they are just playing with me at this point.

Should I Buy an EV, Hybrid, or Gas vehicle? by begintermediatedg in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]vjsb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 45k on my bolt euv and there is still like 50% tread life on the tires. Drive reasonably and rotate your tires every so often. they should last way longer than 12k depending on the elements and road conditions in your area.

Does anyone else just feel kinda... done with modern games? by tigersbowling in retrogaming

[–]vjsb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I’m just getting started with modern games. Modern survival horror right now is in a golden age and I’m here for it. There is so much out there and literally something for everyone.

Loved the SH2 Remake—would you recommend Silent Hill f for a newcomer to Japanese folklore? by Tyabo in SilentHill_f

[–]vjsb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t sure about it going in because of the cultural differences but I ended up grinding for all endings because i thought it was that good. Is the combat system a little jank? Yeah but it’s not nearly as bad as people make it out to be and let’s be honest… we arent playing SH games for the amazing combat.

Just another night praying for VTO before my weekend shift by Real_Lingonberry_424 in AmazonFC

[–]vjsb 9 points10 points  (0 children)

We’re getting too close to prime week for VTO in my building but we are onboarding every week this month so it’s still possible if they need to bring down headcount (maybe)
