    New Windows 10 "God Mode"

    Interesting conversation... I'm torn because I'm a huge proponent of taking local administrator privileges away from end-users in an enterprise environment but I would never give up my own local administrator access. I'm also always logged in with administrator credentials on my personal...

    Tracktor Time-Coded CDs questions?

    You can use Traktor offline; It has no online features whatsoever. Anything you can do with a normal CD you can do with timecode. The hot cues inside Traktor will be more accurate than the ones on the NDX-400s though so I would personally set hot cues in the software and use keyboard shortcuts...

    DJ Gear Criteria?

    I would pay for a membership to that site... Although I'm not sure I want to see what people have to say about me :D

    Mixxx

    An important thing to remember: a firewall will not protect you for a large number of the vulnerabilities that exist. A firewall does only one thing: controls incoming and outgoing traffic over a network. Most firewalls are an "open" or "closed" deal for various ports and there is no monitoring...

    Switching Websites

    If you move the site as it is and leave it running in the old location for at least 48 hours during the transition for any DNS that hasn't updated then no; It will not affect your SEO. No. If you change domains then possibly (if you don't use a redirect) but if you simply transfer the domain...

    New Pioneer controller... No computer/laptop needed...

    Cool... Waiting for the XDJ-2000s to be announced though because I like my modular setup and the XDJ-1000s don't quite have the build quality I'm looking for.

    Mixed In Key for Traktor

    I ran my entire library through MiK 7.0 and my assessment is "it works... kind of." It put a lot of cue points on snares instead of down beats, some of the cue points were in really weird places like the middle of a break, many were out of phrase (on a 2 count or such,) on quite a few of the...

    Question for Google Play buyers

    Dunno about in the US but in Canada the main one is https://www.mytitanium.ca/default/ and you can sign-up for them at MoneyMart and then do all of your reloading online so you never need to step foot in a MoneyMart again. (MoneyMart is one of those predatory 'pay-day loan' places but they have...

    Question for Google Play buyers

    There are pre-paid Visa cards that work exactly like a debit card (no credit, maintain a balance, etc) but they have a Visa number you can use for online purchases. They're similar to the $50 cards or whatever that you can get at a gas station but they actually have your name on them and are...

    Question for Google Play buyers

    It's probably regulatory / population based. The UK has like twice the population of Canada so more potential customers generally leads to faster roll outs. We still don't have half the features touted in Google Now, the new YouTube app that plays while your phone is off doesn't work in Canada...

    Question for Google Play buyers

    Hmm, I wonder if I can't see that option in Google Wallet because I'm Canadian. "Google Wallet" here is really just your Play Store balance but you can't add to it from a credit card or bank account only gift cards.

    Question for Google Play buyers

    I don't believe you can... Otherwise it would be here: https://wallet.google.com/manage/ under payment methods but you can only see your cards and balance no way to add balance. You can buy Google Play cards in 10, 25, 30, 50, and 100 denominations all over the place though from gas stations to...

    Question for Google Play buyers

    Not sure I understand. You want to add funds to your account instead of simply leaving the credit card linked?

    What Makes One A Real DJ

    I think it's even simpler... You're a "real DJ" when you feel like a "real DJ," but at the end of the day it's a useless label. More important labels are "mobile," "club," "open format," "turntablist," etc that actually tell people who might want to book you a little something about you.

    A video reply to the question about a DJ drinking on the job: By John Young #DJNTV

    I think you're right. Luckily as someone who doesn't do weddings I'm not to concerned with the appearance of professionalism. I don't need a steady stream of new clients I just need to maintain existing relationships. The tux one is an interesting one I'd never heard before. Thinking on it my...
