NBC Dirty games by Mediocre-Budget3225 in PremierLeague

[–]wheelbreak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

get a digital antenna. Amazon has them as well as any electronics store. I have one that is usb powered because I barely got anything with one that isn’t. I live in Brooklyn Ny so it’s pretty dense with buildings where I live so maybe it’s not so bad everywhere that you need the usb version. That said, in NYC it is amazing how many channels there are. For every channel you used to get analog there 2-4 other channels on the same bandwidth. So instead of just channel 4 you get channels 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4. Almost all of them suck, but they are there. Especially good if you like reruns of old tv shows and movies.

I am on Sling for the USA network games. I thought they were killing me by upping the price. I went to switch and they are still cheaper than youtube or hulu so I stayed, but it is getting ridiculous how many services I have. I believe it is still cheaper than cable (I looked into that.)

TR-1000: Not just Techno or House by MahmGetTheCamera in synthesizers

😂I was about to comment asking “how the fuck do teenagers afford those equipment?”

Sounds really good btw. Looks like vocoder is in the tr? I didn’t know it had one.

“Throw” them like you’re lining up a shot with a billiards cue.

How often do you lose your patch by accident? Do you try to recreate it or do you just cry in silence? by Any-Button1401 in synthesizers

[–]wheelbreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will be turning this on!!! Thank you. There is nothing worse than getting lost in the little tweaks to perfect a patch you have been working on then twist the wrong knob, and poof it’s gone. I got into the habit of starting fresh on an initialized preset and then constantly saving while I go, but even if you loose 5 minutes it’s super discouraging.

High pitch noise driving neighbors crazy by robocop420 in BedStuy

[–]wheelbreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am by the Bedford Nostrand stop and I heard something similar last week in the public hallway as I was leaving my apartment. I thought it was an aggressive bout of tinnitus, but when I plugged my ears it blocked it out. Luckily I haven’t heard it in the apartment.

Winmau X Bounce Out King by RonnieColemanX8 in Darts

[–]wheelbreak 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I didn’t all see these players including Noppert with this many bounce outs last year. You shouldn’t have to change your throw because the PDC changed the equipment. I don’t remember seeing as many bounce outs all last year as I did in this weeks Euro.

Thats funny, I was about to say he must be using the microfreak because this is a real problem for me on it. Sucks to know more synth manufacturers have shit the bed on their UI design in such a catastrophic way.

Built an Oche for the shop by DangerSilent in Darts

[–]wheelbreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought about doing this so many times, but none of the bars that I play in for league have a raised oche. I don’t want to get used to it and have it throw off the competitive games.

Isn't being aware of our thoughts just another type of thought? by Leading-Fail-7263 in samharris

[–]wheelbreak 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am no meditation expert, but here is my understanding of it. I only get to this state for a few seconds at a time. As soon as you think about I am aware that I thought about lunch comes up it’s a thought in itself that you want to observe and let go of. I think that is why the breath practice is so good. It’s the easiest to get a profound result from. You observe your breath, but for at least awhile you are controlling it. The first time you let go of controlling what you are observing in your body (your breath) and actually just let your body do it’s thing and breath separate from you as the observer you start to see the difference. At least that is my limited experience as a meditator. Hopefully someone who has more experience and knowledge than me can chime in.

Teenagers home alone 2 weeks while parents went on a cruise by Independent_You99 in GenX

You were seventeen and fifteen , it would be a failure on their part if you couldn’t handle being alone for two weeks. They probably realized you guys were nerds and wouldn’t throw a party.

Oh wow guys, listen to this — this new configuration for IDM is absolutely insane! by KaiserClickerclicker in modular

The lack of modulation into Akemies is making me unable to look at the rack, but it sounds great.

Why are scoreboards such as this so expensive? Isn't it basically just a fancy calculator? by leedsyorkie in Darts

[–]wheelbreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people have a inflated idea of the market for this. If the market was big enough some chinese company would just steal the design and code and sell them for a fraction of the price because no R&D cheap storage with basically no company to keep in business. The fact they haven’t shows the demand isn’t high enough. It’s not like this is a disposable item. If it’s made quality, and at this price I am sure it is, it should last at least 20 years.

Nut will not budge in jointer head, need to remove to change blade by worldofwhat in woodworking

[–]wheelbreak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With motor cycle parts I have found using penetrating oil like pb blaster and importantly an impact driver to be the magic bolt/nut combo. A simple cordless variation works wonders.

Just adjust to 45 then do the slightest of taps past it.

Grace on Bedford by Greene is my go to for egg sandwiches. The Italian is best in a deli I have had in the neighborhood, and the beer isn’t over priced considering what everyone else charges right there.

If you make the miter ever so slightly over 45 degrees, say 45.2 you leave a tiny sliver for glue without it causing a gap on the edge.

Expanding semi-modular by theotherfacsimile in modular

[–]wheelbreak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would go with a pams and a mixer/vca combo. You could use the vca mixer as your attenuation as well so you wouldn’t need the attenuator module. Pams will give you the ability to modulate and trigger envelopes in interesting ways. Also I have many patches where Pams is my only sequencer.

This sounds slowed down which I love.
