What are /r/Seaofthieves' favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Yes hacks start popping up over a week ago, example = https://kotaku.com/sea-of-thieves-gets-its-first-wave-of-hackers-1824185739

Although an ESP hack isn't as bad of course as an aimbot or worse god mode.

I'm surprised that health is not server sided.

I just took a short video then clipped it and used Photoshop to turn it into a seamless loop.

If you mean actually use it as a wallpaper? DesktopHut / Dreamscene / Wallpaper Engine are alright, there might be better around.

I think the blunderbuss is unlocked by buying a hard drive. Not sure about the sniper and the hook though. I haven't heard anything about those.

Edit: Yep. Here is a link to the hard drive that unlocks the blunderbuss. Too bad it's over a hundred bucks and I have no need for a hard drive. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B078HKPBX5/ref=cm_sw_r_em_taa_xRoBAbT7PTJ8Y

On German Amazon you can now find some pages from the book „the Art of Sea of Thieves“

Your Pic Is from the other Book?

Amazon.de (germany)

For taking screenshots anytime (regardless of whether you are clicking your mouse or holding a button) I recommend use Lightshot

As all you have to do is hit print screen and then select an area you wish to copy/save/share

Amazon has had it for around $35 with Prime.

If you can get it in your state/country, Ron Diplomatico is awesome. The "reserva" is cheaper, but is a mixed version of the original. Both are still very tasty. I find it all over the South, but here is a UK Amazon link..

I bought the digital version on Google Books.

Could try calling your local book store and supporting them.

If you do buy from Amazon remember to use the smile.amazon.com address; or alternatively there might be someone out there with an amazon affiliate link who you'd like to support.

Use this. It makes shorter work of the Tall Tales. Available in browser and app form.

Hey! Thanks for the gold fellow Pirate!

iOS - MultiTimer by Sergey Astakhov

Android Alternative: Multi Timer Stopwatch

The Android one isn’t as pretty but it’ll get the job done.

I do agree the draw distance has gotten worse, however, the people who build/create new content are not the same people who would improve the draw distance, plus, "greater draw distance" is a lot easier said than done. There are many reasons to consider why they have nerfed it since launch. (Note, the following are only educated assumptions)

I suspect that some of the reasoning was to reduce load on the a gameserver by reducing the distance a server "popped" in certain objects for player/crews to see, eg: floating barrels, ship wrecks, NPCs, etc. a reduced radius of viability would give back a little bit of performance.

Another consideration is simply the Rare devs giving back a few frames here and there to keep things smooth as a short term fix.

With the latest release of Unreal Engine 4.20, Epic introduced a tool called "PROXY LOD" which significantly reduces the resources required to render objects far away while also maintaining a better look of that object at a distance. Given that Sea of Thieves does run on Unreal 4, I suspect we might see this PROXY LOD tech come into effect later this year. (assuming Rare actively upgrade the Unreal Engine 4 version they work on)

This is from the upcoming art book- The Art of Sea of Thieves - set to be released next month. You can find it on Amazon here: Link to Book

oh yea?

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Electronic-Arts-73532-Star-Battlefront/dp/B071Y1RXHG

Price: £56.99

I know there's a cheaper version, just found that one funny :P

...looking through the other games on amazon uk I'm starting to get the feeling you brits are just extremely spoiled when it comes to game prices. geez that stuff is cheap over there compared to mainland europe... oO

Here is the secret to this process:

Using a VPN like ProtonVPN and get all parties involved to connect to the same VPN server say USA Free 2

Then using a website like check your IP location, try and get everyone at the same location something like Las Vegas since it has a low number of servers

Once everyone is on Las Vegas go into the game, select the ship type, and private not public, then everyone launch at the same time.

Once in the game, put up a reaper flag on each ship, check the map see if you are on the same server - if yes, meet up, make an alliance and go have fun. If no Alt-F4 and restart the game, and restart from ship selection etc... (do not rejoin your previous session)

Shouldn't take long to get a match, 1-3 trys generally

I'm sure you'll have a blast with her! My wife bought this Gotrovo Treasure Hunt Game and we love playing with it! I highly recommend it. For a 2 year old, you can start by having her find the items by pictures/drawings. Here's a video I added to their amazon showing my daughter playing in the backyard last year.

I believe you can use a VPN. I haven't personally, but I know it's out there as an option.

I've seen people say they've gotten it to work with Private Internet Access, but that it can be hit or miss when dealing with the Microsoft Store.

Here's a link to their discussion about it:

For me the Sea of Thieves Companion app is imo the best one out there. He is adding everything to it. It has landmarks (riddle locations), ammo crates, rock paintings, some shipwreck locations, and of course animal locations and a bunch more stuff.

There is, https://discord.com/invite/seaofthieves or just look up "Sea Of Thieves Discord" if you don't trust the link. There's an entire section dedicated to LFC (Looking for crew) from Adventure mode, Arena mode, and new players.

This worked! Used this link for instructions to uninstall Xbox App with Powershell

https://winaero.com/blog/how-to-uninstall-and-remove-the-xbox-app-in-windows-10/

Restarted, reinstalled, working.

If that doesn't work out for you, there is always Lightworks. It's surprisingly good (for a free editing programme) I use it for youtube and it gets the job done.

You can convert your entire stock of Xbox live into ultimate for $1. Up to 3 years max.

Just 2 months ago, I turned 3 years of live to 3 years of ultimate (live and game pass) for $1.07.

https://www.xbox.com/en-US/live/gold/upgrade

Find a cheap year of gold, convert for a dollar, profit. Personally, I think it'd be worth it for game pass alone on PC. But that's just my opinion.

Join the Sea of Thieves Community Discord.

It's been a while since I've used it, but once you're in there follow whatever welcome message directions there are then go to the LFG group and find people to play with. The amount of people depends a bit on the time of day and day of the week but generally you'll find people looking for others to play with or you can post yourself and ask for people to play with you on whatever mission you feel like doing that day.

It has a skeleton made of armature wire and tin foil with a bolt sleeve. The fish actually screws onto the mounting board. as for hanging it, I have it on a wall stud. I think fish and backing are maybe 5 pounds total.This is a bolt sleeve: https://www.amazon.com/uxcell-Threaded-Expansion-Sleeve-Anchors/dp/B01GKHE5YI

Most people here are recommending novels. If you want a truly great book about the reality of pirate life and real history I'd recommend Life Among the Pirates by David Cordingly.

It's a brilliant read. I've read it a couple of times now, long before I got into SoT.

Just grab it from amazon america, i did worked out to be $128 aud shipped which isn't bad at all

I play on PC and Xbox One X. The load times have always been atrocious on my Xbox. They were really bad on my PC too when I first started playing there, but once I put a solid state drive into the PC, load times sped up significantly. It was so much better!

I have not gotten an external SSD to use with my Xbox, but based on my experience with using one on PC and with what others have said, I don't doubt it would help a lot. Here are a couple of cheaper 240GB options from Amazon that would work: Pioneer 3D for $44.99 or ADATA Entry Series SD600Q for $39.99.

I've been using this for a few weeks now, it's great for looking up the name of islands if you don't know them all by heart yet.

That cannon fire in the fog we needs it!

ITT: Lots of these Salty Sailors.

Summit is doing great things for this game. This game after all was designed with streaming in mind. Even back when it was codenamed "Athena" Rare was actively trying to make 'experiences that are entertaining to watch' it really is amazing and sad to watch this community become toxic, and resist a really positive thing. And honestly this was a huge goal for SoT to become popular in the streaming sphere I hope people will come around a see what a great boon this will be and already is for Sea of Thieves.

If you're reading this and you're really that salty and not just trolling. Here is the RES site for you. Just filter this content out and stop being so cancerous.

It's an Asus TUF laptop. This one to be exact

ASUS TUF Gaming F17 Gaming Laptop, Intel 11900H CPU, RTX 3060 Graphics https://www.amazon.com/dp/B096V6RZ22/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_FVKHGAM7A4PVKRM58WPX?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1

Don't worry, I did the same mistake the firsts seasons I played, that's one of the ways we learn :)

Anyway, my approach to this was printing this map: https://www.reddit.com/r/Seaofthieves/comments/ejib8n/a_sea_of_thieves_map_you_can_read/

I put in inside a transparent document holder like this one: https://www.amazon.es/dp/B00NXMCFK0/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_SFY8A6R9VZQTK9YY5719?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1

And then I use coloured pens (the ones for whiteboards that you can erase with your finger) to mark the places I visit. The other colours are to mark islands with thrones, with the big lanterns you can ignite with flames of the damned, and other things that I found useful.

This way, I can keep track of all of these things each season (just clean the transparent folder and mark again whatever you want) and I also have a map in front of me all of the time, which I find really useful and helps me to memorize it.

I also found a list with all of the places and their coordinates (plus other info) that I sorted alphabetically in an excel sheet and then printed it so that it only occupies a sheet, though I don't use it that much now that I know the map better.

Sure!

• A nice frame in whatever size you like. I used something in between A4 and A5 (sorry for the European measurements but idk if they are the same everywhere)
• paper. Drawing paper is preferred because it's a little thicker.
• a black sheet of paper for the frame background (I just colored in some normal paper with black ink)
• coffee
• a black felt tip pen (I used a micron brush pen but anything will do)
• a lighter
• I used a sticker at the top. It was in a pack I bought on AliExpress but I think the stickers are sold on Amazon as well (I think the content of the sticker pack can vary but I'm not sure):

https://www.amazon.nl/dp/B08LT6Z7BV/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_V2YBV0HRG1NT87V1HPT4

A step by step guide if this helps you:

Step 1) get a frame. I found this one at a thrift store a while ago and I thought it suited the theme. Paint it if you like) 2) cut a piece of paper to a size you like so it fits into the frame. 3) soak the paper in some coffee so it gets a nice brown tint to it and leave it to dry 4) the next thing I did was burn some of the edges off. Be careful to not set your house on fire. Don't make the mistake I almost made and do this outside😂 5) put the sticker (or any other sticker/design you like) on top of the paper 6) i recommend lining out where you want your gamertag and date to be so it looks clean when you go ahead with inking everything 7) google pirate font if that helps you 8) sketch out the letters and date and trace them with a black pen or ink 9) put everything in the frame 10) DONE and celebrate with a grog🍻

I hope this helps you :) Enjoy your PL journey⚓

I'm not good with creative idea but I feel like, if this thing is a chest it may let out different sounds or color to indicate what type of challenge it's going to give.
Rough example :
&gt;Chest let out Blue some smoke : Cannon challenge you get some kind of duck hunt mini game float around that have to be finished by using cannon.
&gt;Red : Combat, the chest transform into a monster that can use knock back and flame move
&gt;Yellow : Ship management, a set of markers appear on the sea and you have to sail to those markers
&gt;Green : puzzle, chest now have something that look similar to this but with icons instead of number and player have to solve it, the puzzle is arrange a simple story (like pirates > ship > island > found treasure)
And the punishment can be something mildly inconvenient, the whole crew is drunk, poison, puke or something harsh, like taking one of the crew's soul (forced one of the crew to die, wont happen if solo) or break ship's part (1-3 depend on ship size)
I want this to be highly rewarding loot but it can easily mess the crew up too.

Sorry if this is hard to read, but I love discussing these sort of stuff.

Even after way too many hours on Sea of Thieves, I still rely on apps to help with cooking. I downloaded an Android app so I know exactly how long each meat need to be on the stove.

Do you have Nvidia Optimus by any chance?

I remember my friend having the same problem with other games, turns out that running anything in fullscreen would automatically switch to his integrated gpu and switch back to his nvidia gpu when alt+tabbed back to desktop.

If not, I would try using process hacker to change SoT.exe priority to High and see if that does something.

That is not a bug. The devs cant help because they cant, and also it is not their fault or their problem. It has nothing to do with the game at all. Thats simply you just having a bad internet connection.

https://www.speedtest.net/ will tell you your speeds.

Download speed should be well over 150 and upload speed should be over 15 if you have decent internet.

If your numbers a lower than that you are just paying for bad/cheap internet.

hi. I'm new and a few days ago I found a megalodon. My friend said its the shouded ghost but I'm not sure since it was at night. Being a noob, I didnt kill him and ran away. At that time I dont know shrouded ghost is a very rare creatures. Can someone confirm it for me?

heres the screenshot https://files.fm/u/96qeht9s4

Are you creating the LFG posts or just joining? Why not create your own? You can also try official discord/forums to find groups.

Also there's nothing wrong about solo slooping. I've done that for the majority of my Sea of Thieves career.

-Captain Falcore covers the lore pretty extensively (YT)

-Tall Tales (obviously)

-there are a couple novels/comic books (Tales from the Sea of Thieves, Athena’s Fortune (free audiobook on the Sea of Thieves channel), and I think the comic books are all on comixology)

This is the art that was inspired after we snagged our last Athena steal needed a few weeks back. Made & rendered in blender!

>I've used G2A a lot and never had an issue

it's really great to know that you use G2A so frequently.

If you're happy with shopping at G2A and you have a free moment, we'd be super glad if you dropped by and gave us a rating on <strong>Trustpilot</strong> - (just like Mario we are collecting stars). If not, please share with me any feedback you might have to improve the quality of your shopping.

PS: Could you please DM me? I have a small gift for you.

All the best!

you can visit the sea of thieves discord to look for players, also the game is cross play with console users so you can use the windows xbox app and find people looking for groups there too.

Getting an SSD is life changing even for original Xbox.

Even this one is more than enough:

its not something I made that ones official merch https://www.amazon.co.uk/Totaku-Figurine-Thieves-Gold-Hoarder/dp/B07W8543NM the flameheart is from a loot crate

Appearently EposVox has made some LUTs s for HDR to SDR tonemapping.

https://sellfy.com/vox-shop/p/xejavk/

It contains some for individual games, but also one that should work universally. It's appearently 5$, but that's a farily low price to pay.

I'm currently testing it out myself.

Unreal engine is adding support for DirectX Ray-tracing and RTX. So we could see it someday. Maybe.
https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/blog/unreal-engine-4-supports-microsoft-s-directx-raytracing-and-nvidia-rtx

The drive you posted is the best deal I can find right now. Even bare drives (without the USB enclosure) are around that price. I say buy it. You will just need to purchase a USB 3.2 cable because your Xbox does not have USB-C. Something like this will work great.

DS4Windows is what you want. It takes a minute to set up, but works wired and through BT (BT being much less latency when you max the polling rate).

It's been forked from the original author, and sees constant updates:

https://github.com/Ryochan7/DS4Windows

Remember to hide the controller in the settings and the game will only see xinputs. Plus having the touchpad for mouse and RGB LED control makes it the best controller for PC, IMO

Edit: English is hard

This can lock your mouse to your first screen. Even stops scrolling on other displays while still in your first screen. An issue that older Fallout games have.

FIXED

So Realtek HD audio drivers include a section for noise suppression which gets rid of the issue for us. It changes the voice veeeery slightly, but nothing that is really worse than hearing someone use a new mic for the first day.

SOLUTION:

1. Checked if I had realtek drivers in device manager. I did not
2. Downloaded the driver here (because download from realtek site is sloooow): https://filehippo.com/download_realtek_high_definition_audio_vista_64/
3. Once installed, you may need to update the driver within device manager
4. Once it is installed, you got to the sound settings and make your way to your microphone and go to the enhancements tab. In here you check the box for noise suppression.
5. Finally apply and OK.

There is a big tecnical problem here. (I am not a developer of sea of thieves)

I like to think the game a bit like agar.io . When you log in you enter a server that already exists. Having parts of the map being dependent on who is logged in is a major undertaking. We already have problems with servers only supporting a max number of players that is frankly a very low number. ( I think is like 8 max per server)

As for the fun factor I think your ideia subverts the core game loop of the game. Which is go get loot -> go sell loot. Things happen in the meantime.

I think I understand your need to have more costumizable things in the world. The only thing I could see being done is a system like the current legendary tavern which is shared between all taverns. There you could have rooms customizable for people that are logged in. Since this is already a seperate server like thingy and it does not affect the world it could work. the downside is it wouldnt do anything, it would be purely cosmetic, but it could be a nice way of showing off. "look at that guy he has the trophy of killing the white megalodon!"

It's a little hard to track down what's using your space with the built in windows tool, but I use this super helpful free tool called WinDirStat. When you run it, you tell it to scan your SSD, and after a minute or two it will show you this colorful blocky display at the bottom. Like in this example. Mousing over the biggest blocks of color and watching the status bar at the bottom of the tool help you get a sense of what's taking up the most space. There are going to be some big blocks there that you can't do anything about, like your Windows Folder, the pagefile, and maybe some important programs you have installed. But sometimes you'll find that you have a huge chunk of space being eaten by your "Downloads" folder, or your Recycle Bin, or some other place where a bunch of seemingly small files have collected to hog space. You can also use the list in the upper window of the tool to sort the file-tree by different criteria like file size to quickly identify your biggest space eaters. Delete junk files, clean your Downloads, and definitely empty your recycle bin.

You want Windows on your SSD, and usually the game you're playing the most of, along with any heavy media applications like Photoshop, a Video Editor, or some other media production software. But most of the rest of your programs can operate from a HDD without much impact on performance. Don't bog down your SSD with video files, large caches of images/music, or backups, those are all more suited for the slower drive.

This was the first time I had heard about Ansel. Their page has Sea of Thieves* and then at the bottom:

*Select Beta Ansel features can include: screenshot, filters,and super resolution (AI). Additional features not available.

Not sure what that means and not sure if you're saying it doesn't include something on that list or what. In any event, sounds interesting and like Sea of Thieves would be a perfect candidate for this kind of feature.

I usually download driversweep and make sure all old drivers are deleted(From Nvidia) Then download https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/geforce-experience/ And just install it, I'm 99% sure you can just download Nvidia right away and do a fresh install(It should show you the option)

Xbox does a Year in review, where you can answer some questions and see the playtime of your top played games for that year. Using that some players were able to get their playtime up to December.

Apart from that there is no way I know of to see this.

Yup.

If anyone is curious about BST, you can check the timezone differences if you click this link

Just need to convert to my local for when it starts so that I can have the stream up just before it starts since I am AEST.

Thanks. I ended up getting this one (before you posted your link): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0874XJL6M?psc=1&amp;ref=ppx_yo2_dt_b_product_details

Looks like I went with the same one but the more updated model. Any good Youtube videos that help explain how to set it up that you like? I watched one earlier and it seemed pretty straight forward.

shout. let me get you a better link, i thought i snagged the right one

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-T5-Portable-SSD-MU-PA500B/dp/B073GZBT36/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&amp;keywords=samsung+t5+500gb&amp;qid=1632491323&amp;sr=8-3

is the drive i meant to link to you, that is the exact one i have connected to my one x

I am on a laptop, heres the link: https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-Display-i7-10750H-Keyboard-G512LW-ES76/dp/B0863Y4QGV
Its a year old, and used for gaming and school. Nothing super intensive. I have a fan that points at it as well to keep it cool.

Specs: https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-Display-i7-10750H-Keyboard-G512LW-ES76/dp/B0863Y4QGV

Its about a year old and used for gaming and school.

This is my pc: https://www.amazon.com/ASUS-Display-i7-10750H-Keyboard-G512LW-ES76/dp/B0863Y4QGV

I bought it in summer 2020 and use it for gaming and school only.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08QBMD6P4/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_385B6XTW62KESZ8V0PWF.

something like this drive will be way faster than thr hdd without breaking the bank. and when you are done with the xbox you can use it as a portable drive for pc stuff or keep using it as a game drive to run older xbox games that you done need blistering fast load speeds from the series X|S

May be able to do close to $20 shipped, found this 128GB for $17: https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-BAR-Plus-128GB-MUF-128BE4/dp/B07BPG9YX9/ref=sr\_1\_4?dchild=1&amp;keywords=usb+flash+drive&amp;qid=1629528352&amp;sr=8-4

TBH, once the sinking animation starts, you can't spawn until it completes. I've never timed how long it takes, but I know it feels like forever after I sink a ship full of loot and I'm waiting for it all to float to the surface.

But to load faster, buy an external SSD and move the game to that drive.

The Xbox One released in 2013 with hardware from 2009; hardware from 2009 is pretty shitty in 2021. However, that means you don't even have to spend a lot on an external SSD since it is limited to USB 3.0 speeds anyway. Something like this would do wonders for your loading times in SOT.

Funny enough he had these also outside Balsam Barometer Weather Stick , All Natural Single Pack https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003503NHO/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_W917EEF551B8NGNWCG9Y?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1

Then do I have the book for you.

There is an app for Android that has riddle locations. Its super useful for newer players. I use it when I've had a bit too much grog irl lol.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rarethief.sotcompanion

Just as a heads up since you mentioned external drives, I bought one of these little guys 240GB External SSD for $30, connected it to the Xbox, moved SoT over to the SSD, and its like night and day. Load back from a mermaid is almost instantaneous, coming back from the Ferry of the Damned is under 10 seconds instead of the 3+ minutes it was before. Its been an absolute game changer. The number of times I've managed to recover and keep sailing when in the past I would have died because of load times is huge.

Xbox Wireless Controller - Sea of Thieves Limited Edition (Discontinued) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077YD7PFK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_01NZAb709NNZJ

I just found this on amazon and bought one! Not sure if anyone here has already posted the link but it’s in stock for a short time!

Here's a link to the direct amazon page instead of an affiliate link.

Thanks for your comments guys.

Well I am plannin to just get 1080p and on 60Hz. I do not care about it that much. Just decent graphics with a better "view". So I found on amazon for 210$.

why dont you want the anniversary edition? if you really dont want it you can probably find a key for sale on amazon or something

Seems it can be etched using a cream. Amazon sells a kit for fairly cheap. Would be a neat hobby to get into!

Wow, I just looked up that Xbox branded SSD. It's a really bad deal; I feel like Seagate is counting on console players not realizing how much SSD prices have dropped over the last few months.

Almost $100 for 500 GB is nuts.

For comparison, I paid $80 for a 1 TB Crucial MX500, which is one of the top SATA SSDs.

I'd suggest OP look for SATA SSD deals on /r/BuildaPCSales then buy a SATA to USB adapter for less than $10 on Amazon.

Example of what I'm talking about. Plug one end into the SSD and one end into your Xbox.

There is a free app called the SoT companion App that has a world map complete with Riddle markers and their locations, as well as Tall Tale walk-throughs.

I would be if people like OP were in the majority, they aren't.

By far, most people that avoid conflict at least understand that it is a possibility. I think that avoiding conflict is a valid strategy, as is fighting back, offering a portion of your loot as a bribe, or trying to form an alliance.

It's people that seem to think they're entitled to safety that annoy me, I've encountered players many times before that just sit there doing a voyage while you sink them and steal their loot, and then get angry about the lost time (once or twice, I've had salty kids successfully find the IP of the French NordVPN server, and then tell me they know where I live in an attempt to get me to give them their loot back).

In most cases, this game is heavily weighted towards the defensive ship, there are usually outposts in all directions so that a ship can make use of their speed advantage in certain wind angles. I have nothing against people that run away (unless they are reapers because that's just stupid) and while I find sailing loot into the red sea a cheap tactic, it works, and I try not to get too annoyed when this happens.

I am against PvE servers because it will cause the loss of players overall. While a vocal minority of salty PvE-focused players will find this an improvement, the majority of players that prefer a balanced game experience (and even those that are only interested in PvE) will max their levels on PvE servers and then burn out and leave the community. The sheer number of old legends that have left the game already because "this game has no content" are evidence that PvE servers will only make this worse. If some people have already burnt out on grinding in open servers, imagine how many people will complain after they are given a risk-free environment to grind in for a few weeks.

Sorry for the essay, TL:DR: you're wrong, but only because players like OP are the minority.

Samsung SSD 860 EVO 1TB 2.5 Inch SATA III Internal SSD (MZ-76E1T0B/AM) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078DPCY3T/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_mLfiErqzUuvaS

But you’ll need an enclosure like this: Sabrent 2.5-Inch SATA to USB 3.0 Tool-Free External Hard Drive Enclosure [Optimized for SSD, Support UASP SATA III] Black (EC-UASP) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00OJ3UJ2S/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_FmJ2uGHLi5siH

The hardest thing for me is that every button plays 2 different notes (air going in vs. air going out, just like a harmonica), so the first month was a struggle for me finding which notes to play. Personally I hung up a diagram of the notes for in/out and just kept trying simple tunes I heard through youtube, then after a month or so I got a good feel for where the notes were and could start playing my own songs.

EDIT: Mentioned on another post, but I really do recommend getting a book like The Anglo Concertina for Absolute Beginners, it's not the most exciting book in the world but it explains a lot of techniques in an easy to follow way

Going in I already played Piano & Accordion so I already had some music theory, but I found a book called The Anglo Concertina Absolute Beginners which was super helpful for figuring out notes & finger positions. Unfortunately since it's a pretty unpopular instrument it's very hard to find teachers, but if you search around you can find some great tutorials on youtube or various forums!

Totally understandable, as im sure tons of time, effort, and money went into getting it looking this amazing. Im super impressed (and jealous)! You can also get really cool replica skulls on amazon for cheap, may be a good an easy option to replace the current one :) maybe a gold one?

Samsung SSD

What I would do is get an external enclosure like this then you can get any ssd up to 4TB, something like this. This way you are future proofing yourself a bit for upgrades.

You can also get it as a phone app

I’ve had this problem lately, hitting a 900 ping this week every night. I sometimes wonder if it’s my current hotel internet (I travel for work) or if it’s a server side problem. Tried changing servers last night and it actually cleared up a lot, but tonight I’m also going to try using VyprVPN and a beam forming WiFi adapter to see if it helps at all.

I bought this one recently and it seems to run fine.
