So is anyone else here into smart home stuff and if so, what are you using?
Personally I've been swapping out bulbs and stuff one by one for Zigbee controlled ones, and I think I've just about reached the point where I have more smart lights than dumb ones. I live in a 3-story house so it's a...
So I'm experiencing a little first world problem I'd like to solve.
My phone connects to my smart band using bluetooth. I always leave my phone downstairs to charge overnight, and sometimes it stays connected, sometimes it doesn't. I get notifications on the band, so that's why I'd prefer for...
I didn't see a thread like this here so I figured I'd start one now!
So now that live shows are more or less back, what bands did you see live recently? How was it? Did they play tight / was their sound any good / how did they interact with the crowd / how was the venue / etc ?
Also, what...
So this game's been all over the place lately, and I think it looks pretty cool, but has anyone here played it yet? I'm at least gonna wait until it goes on sale, but is it even worth waiting for?
Finally decided to make an NGD thread about this one.
I posted about it in the CoB/BAM thread after getting it, but I didn't make an NGD thread before because I was waiting for stuff to start blooming in the yard so the pics would look a bit nicer. Well, weather's still shit all the time and...
Does anyone have any experience with these things?
I think the reason for the ports breaking is that the FW-card in my PC is a cheap piece of crap, and it doesn't take much force to connect an FW cable upside down... Needless to say, I did several times, and I think what basically happened was...
Driving home from Helsinki today, I remembered one of the most useless signs ever. It doesn't really fit into any thread (not sad/mad/happy about it, it's not a meme and so on...), so I thought why not start a thread about it.
Here it is:
The one on the right especially. It comes after...
At the moment I'm running a Raspberry Pi 2 as a sort of NAS, with 2 4TB USB HDD's hooked to it. It works, and I'm able to stream 1080p video to my Android TV from it, but transferring bigger files (backed up VST's etc) to and from it is painstakingly slow. Also, once I get a 4K TV, it won't be...
So, my wife asked me to join her 21 days of abundance group, and now it's my turn to create my own group.
It's basically a challenge of self reflection and meditation where the group leader posts a writing task for everyday, and the participants are suggested to write the answers in a physical...
Anyone else into them? They just released their 3rd album, Legends from Beyond the Galactic Terrorvortex, and I think it's pretty awesome.
If someone doesn't know, Gloryhammer is a symphonic power metal band started by Chris Bowes (vocals+keys in Alestorm). He still composes the music and...
So I got a bunch of money for my birthday to buy a new bicycle. But the thing is, I don't have a clue about what to actually look for in those.
Some background:
I'd had the same bicycle I got for my 11th birthday until a few years ago when parts on it started breaking - mainly one metal band...
Hey!
Facebook just reminded me that I released a new song 9 years ago, and then I figured it might be interesting to hear what people have been doing shitloads of time ago :) So here we go, I'll start. Please don't flood the thread with too much stuff!
Anyway, here's the song...
Hey. Since I've been using sso on my phone a lot lately, but hate doing anything in the phone's browser, I was thinking having this forum in Tapatalk would be nice. For those who don't know, tapatalk is an app for reading and posting to forums in a more mobile-optimized way. I don't know whether...
Can it really be true that there's no Dream Theater megathread on this forum!? I tried looking for one and I couldn't find it. So, if it really doesn't exist, let's turn this one into one!
Anyway, what I had in mind was to ask whether DT has played A Nightmare to Remember recently. I didn't...
Check out my friends' band Abhordium! They just released their second album, Omega Prayer.
I got to know the guys around 2011-2012 maybe. I was looking to join a band or form a new new one, and their vocalist contacted me and asked if I was interested to play the guitars for them. I practiced...
Hey!
Is anyone else here into traveling? Or well, who isn't :lol:
I have a travel related question, but I thought once that's dealt with, people can post their travel experiences or other questions etc. to keep it going :) Vacation photos also, please ;)
Anyway, I got married a couple of...
So I've recently gotten into this American Folk/Melodeath band called Aether Realm. Anyone else here into them?
They just released a new album called Tarot, which is fucking awesome! I believe they also play 7-strings.
I discovered them when Alestorm and Nekrogoblikon advertised a tour on which...
Hello!
So, about a year ago, I moved together with my gf. Since then I haven't had any room for my guitars and recording rig etc, apart from the basement which is cold and moist + the ceiling is so low, I have to hunch when walking there. Now we're moving into a bigger house, and I'll...

We were gonna release a bunch of songs earlier this year, but due to a whole lot of .... hitting the fan once again, we just didn't get to do it. Now many songs are almost finished though, so hopefully they'll be coming out sooner than later.
Now the summer is over here in...
Hi!
I already posted about this in the acoustic section, but since it's only been read 87 times in almost two weeks, I figured I'd post here as well for better exposure. So, sorry for the repost!
Anyway:
I'll be attending my friends' wedding in London on 16.7, and a few of my friends...
