About Phil Geiger:   For Phil, Bitcoin is the strongest currency the world has ever seen. It's global, neutral, and can't be arbitrarily debased by a central authority.   Because it is designed to store value for the long run, Bitcoin incentivizes people to save rather than consume. There's nothing better for the environment than a single neutral global currency that makes overconsumption more expensive.   Follow Phil Geiger on:   Website:          https://unchained.com/ Twitter:            https://twitter.com/phil_geiger   Connect with Mo Bina on:   Website:          https://www.high-risecapital.com/ Medium:          https://mobina.medium.com/   For more information on passive investing in commercial real estate, please check out our free eBook — More Doors, More Profits — by clicking here: https://www.high-risecapital.com/resources-index

Happy Pill   I actually have a few more installments of the "Deep in China" session and the NYD set to upload and yet ended up publishing this little nugget. Two factors: on the one hand felt like something a bit lighter & happier as I was starting to accumulate new 2014 tunes on my HD and on the other (my fellow podcasters will understand) once a set is recorded and sits there for a few weeks, it needs to be pretty good to actually be dug up for publishing.. most of the times they stay on the drive because we (hope) the next one will be better.   Happy Pill.... A very vocal house set with happy tunes to bring a smile to our faces. I have lately been watching the news and I cannot say that the reports from the Ukraine, Syria and Venezuela are particularly cheerful.. Happy Pill time then.. Tunes from 2014 or late 2013 with some oldies mixed in-between.   Playlist:   2013 Luv 4 You. Scott Diaz 2013 I Like 2 Party. Samir Maslo Vs. Oliver Cheatham 2013 Beautiful (Original mix). Hakan Kabil feat. Majuri 2013 Need You Tonight (Scott Wozniak Bootleg Remix). INXS 2013 Dreams (Director's Cut Classic Mix). Vintage Lounge Orchestra 2013 The Otherside (Original Mix). Carl Hanaghan feat. Roz Brown 2014 The Madness of Last Night Serenity (Original Mix) [Xtian Mash-Up] Lars Behrenroth feat. Marc Evans 2014 If We Only Had Tonight (Original Mix vs Carl Hanaghan Discopolis Remix). Husky 2013 Tonight (Earnshaw's Deep & Modified Mix). Mike Scott, and Richard Earnshaw, feat. Chappell 2013 Boy Is Mine (OtherSoul Classic Mix).Brandy & Monica 2013 Everybody Loves (Monte Remix.)  Phil & Dan 2001 Loving You (Vincenzo's Remix). Smurf & Perry feat. Concha Buika 2014 Something About the Rain [Xtian Lil’ Edit]. Noa feat Adele 2012 Settle Down (Scott Wozniak Remix). Kimbra   Highlights:   First track “Luv 4 You” from the king of Jackin’ House Scott Diaz.. Tune sets the mood.. If you do not like it, do not progress, your sad mood might lighten up, do not risk it.. Impeccable production.   “I Like 2 Party” from Samir Maslo and Oliver Cheathman..  It has that Disco atmosphere which comes from the rich production, the echoed vocal sample and is written in a key F#m which I think is perfect for House Music... Just lovely.   “Beautiful” from Hakan Kabil, multi-layered tune which might confront some, though I think it ticks all the right boxes and Majuri is a great vocalist.. Not a simple track at all..    “Need You Tonight”. With the biopic of INXS being currently shown on Australian TV, I thought it would be fun to use this immense remix from Scott Wozniak. It shows his immense talent as a remix/producer. The man can touch anything and enrich it.. Scott just crowd-sourced his first artist album, I simply cannot wait!   Another new take of an old classic, “Dreams” from Fleetwood Mac by no other than Frankie Knuckles and Eric Kupper.. I have always, will always love FK’s production. Rich, wide, smooth I am running out of  adjectives.. And if you want to feel the FK’s touch just scroll to 20:39:00 and bang one second after  that bass you hear coming, this IS FK signature right there.. I heard it too many times live not to recognize it, it just pumps precisely when the tune needs it.. Without it the track would be perfect but lacking soul, lacking a heart beat.. The Bass line is the pulse. Enjoy!   "The OtherSide".. well it is a bridge track. I needed to change key and keep the wide production theme going, set being recorded live .. key and beat matched, it was enough for me.. Well… you got a House Diva. First time I notice Roz Brown as a vocalist.. She can sing!   My mash-up of Lars Behrenroth’s ( of Deeper Shades of House fame) “Madness Last Night”.. Many reasons to be happy there.. Lars is one of the reason I do this because I remember listening to his sets 10 years ago and thinking I should try to do this.. Not that I am in any way comparing my crap with his immense talent but he is one of my inspirations.. Furthermore nothing makes me more happy than to buy tunes from people I respect and have connected with through Facebook and the likes. Finally I am actually pretty “stoked” to use the term being thrown around by all the Australian Olympians with what I did.. Great track from Lars and half decent mash-up from Xtian..   “If We Only Had Tonight” from Husky… immense Australian talent ( why does he NEVER come to Melbourne??).. Epitome of the happy tune and you are getting double dose because I ripped twice the Discopolis Remix in Traktor and saved it in extremis by the skin of my teeth with the OM.. Set is live.. would be have been in the bin.. I love everything, the production, the build in the synth, the filters, Carl Hanaghan doing a dirty sick job on the remix.. Have fun and smile..   “Tonight” Earnshaw and Mike Scott.. need I say more… oh yes.. Chappell , yes indeed there is “something special tonight”.. Not sure it counts as a happy songs per se.. but it made ME happy dropping it.. Rich production again and if you want to hear what I mean by the Frankie K’s bass pulse scroll to 48.59 and wait for the bass heartbeat coming a second after… Earnshaw showing he can do it just as well..   Another sugar Happy Pill with “Boy is Mine” from OtherSoul ( please hit the Like button on their Facebook page very talented producers and remixers).. Tunes has a house and R'n'B feel. Pure love and I dare you to listen and not have a wie grin on your face.. Ought to be prescribed to sad people and reimbursed!   “Everybody Loves”. From Phil & Dan.. another bridge tune thrown in because I could not find the beat of what I had originally planned to drop and I was running out of bars.. Not quite sure it fits the theme but it worked and I love the cow bells sounding percussions and yes My House is Your House and Your House is Mine works ALL THE TIME.. J   Now let’s go to something REALLY SPECIAL… way back from 2001 “Loving You” from Smurf and Perry the Vincenzo's Remix!!! DO NOT MISS!!!   If ,like me, you are discovering this track, you are in for a treat.. When I first heard it on GN’s Housecall in the "Do You remember House" section, I just could not believe that A) I had never heard such a great track B) that it had been produced in 2001!!   Pure bliss of a tune, perfect production and take it from someone who does not like jazz most of the time, it has the most perfect blend of jazzy undertones.. Bass is driving the track from alpha to omega, intricate percussions, great vocals from Concha Buika.. and then there is the classical piano progression at the start and end of the track.. Just telling you that this is A VERY VERY RARE HOUSE GEM..   It goes straight to my top ten.. and knocked a MAW track I never thought could be knocked off..   Additional info to the track.. I searched everywhere on the LEGAL net for the track, Traxsource, Beatport, Juno, Discodogs..etc.. to no avail, no file, no vinyl.. nothing.. I ended up hitting Shane D (host of the show and legendary remixer/producer/DJ from Durban SA) to ask if he could help me to find the tune.. He just sent the vinyl output by return.. Many thanks and much respect.. I had done something for him a few years back without expecting anything. Karma.. they say.. Thank you Shane D.   “ Settle Down” another Scott Wozniak Remix, I needed a short happy tune to stay in the CD format and not to encroach into the “More Happy Pills" set soon to  follow.. and this little happy gems was just meant for it..   Hope you like the set   A bientôt.. with More Happy Pills   Xtian

Which Sim? From Alex Hi all you guys, If i were going to use a flight simulator platform for general aviation flying, would it be logical to use x-plane or FSX? I know x-plane is more realistic in terms of aerodynamics, but the aircraft graphics are pathetic, compared to some pay-ware from FSX (carenado for example) However FSX is much more detailed in graphics, but in FSX, the aerodynamics are unrealistic because you just tell the airplane how fast it goes, how steep it can turn(as far as i know, correct me if i am wrong ;) ) Any ideas? Cheers Alex Screenshot Program for FSX and FS9 on Win7 Eric, On your first video brodcast I asked if you were having trouble with screenshots on your new PC running Windows7. You said you were. Will I found one that works with both FSX and FS9. Its a program called Aeroshot Image Capture. You can download it from FSPilotShop. It's only $18.00. I've attached some screenshots taken in FSX and FS9. The program works great. You can set where to save your pics, and in what format.It uses your printsren key, and does not pause your fightsim. I gives a sound to let you know it captured your shot.

Airplane Recommendations Hey Guys, I really like your show. I would like to recommend to aircrafts, both were released on Dec 25, I don't think they were mentioned during your show. Both aircrafts are products of love. First one is the Westland Lysander, I was captivated by its unique looks, and bought it right away. It has really amazing history - RAF used them to drop and pick up agents in France during WWII. It is easy to fly, but hard to land, great aircraft!! http://fsaddon.eu/wpfsaddon/fsaddon-products/lysander-secret-operations/ The second one is Cessna O-1/L-19 - I just got this one today, activation process (Copy protection is not so great), but overall aircraft is very nice. http://www.sibwings.com/birddog.php Thank you, Ilya From the forums: SimCheck A300 Hey don't forget to mention the new Simcheck A300 airplane available from Aerosoft... truly awesome aircraft! From BionicCrab Aircraft Features: http://www.aerosoft.com/cgi-local/us/iboshop.cgi?showd,,11145   TweakFS Recommendation from George Hi guys Happy New Year from the other side of the pond, were it is freezing cold, and I am buried in about 20cms of snow. Some time ago, in a previous email or voicemail, I mentioned a suite of products for both FS10 and FSX from Australia, which can be found at www.tweakfs.com The utilities are mainly about providing you with tools that make it easy for you to tweak your Flight Sim. I have had these utilities for some time now - but like most things, the more you explore the more you find. One that I would like to suggest as a 'hot' pick, is TweakFlight, which is available for both FS10 and FSX for US$24.95.What is even better is that you can download a demo version for 30 days For those simmers that like setting up scenarios or approaches, this allows you to do it all within a few key strokes, and you can continue to tweak it as and when you want. The navigation bar at the top covers 9 screens, all with different parameters that can be set for your flight, which can then be saved and edited at will. The screens cover:- Main - Title, description, date, time, camera views and aircraft position. This is neat, as you can select your position by just double clicking on a zoomable and moveable map, and set your height, heading and speed - just so cool. Autopilot - any of the functions of the autopilot can be preset Engines - for each engine you can set, Throttle, Prop, Mixture, RPM and Cowl and synchronise (or not) the engines Avionics - Set Master Switch, Com Radios, Nav Radios, ADF/Transponder, and DME/Audio Controls - Set spoilers, flaps, gear,brakes,yoke/rudder and trim Systems - choose which systems and lights you want on or off Fuel - quickly and simply set your fuel levels either by centre, left or right tanks or synchronise by % General - gives you the options to display or not, things like EFIS, ATC menu, simulation rate etc etc Briefing - create your own briefing notes - although this looks like you need some knowledge of HTML If you do decide to try it - I hope you get as much enjoyment as I have had Happy New Year to the Community http://secure.simmarket.com/tweakfs-tweakflight-fsx.phtml USB video card + flight sim = terrible, terrible idea   Hi Eric, Just a quick note: I can't speak for flight sim, but for X-Plane, no user should ever attempt to put any kind of X-Plane output onto a USB video card! The performance will be truly dreadful. X-Plan requires a "real" graphics card, meaning: - A graphics card that has a high quality 3-d accelerator on it and - that graphics card has to be in a slot wide enough for x-plane to just blast it with data. PCIe x16 is really a must, PCIe x16 2.0 is even better. USB is waaaay too slow. Yep...the processing has to come from somewhere. :-) It's a very smart idea for low-end computers...where the goal is to bring down price, where the CPU is already over-powered, where casual users probably aren't even using the second CPU. It's similar to what happened with sound cards...there's just no point in shipping sound cards with DSPs any more - that DSP is one more part, $20 more of cost (and that matters now, things are so cheap) when the second core can do sound mixing with 3% of its capacity. Of course, as flight simmers this sucks because it means the mainstream trend in hw (and what "most" new users who get a flight sim will already own) is a machine inappropriate to running FS X or x-plane. If I browse Dell's site, I can't even find the _option_ to put an ATI or NV card in most of the time, and when you do find a video card you find ... ... wait for it ... Radeon 4350 NVideo Geforce GTS 240 (You will find the 4350 at the BOTTOM of the 4xxx list - it is the most stripped down config. Surprisingly the GTS 240 isn't the bottom of the NV barrel, but being two levels down from the "real" part, the 280, it's going to be terrible for flight sim.) So a user who tries to build a "nice" machine before getting into flight sim is going to pay more and still get a machine that tanks. Sigh... cheers Ben   Answer to last week's Question About Object Placing   I was listening to your show last night (great show BTW) and i heard someone was looking for a freeware object placer. Now i use Instant scenery for my scenery design which is great if you want to spend the money before i brought Instant scenery i got this freeware one recommend to me. http://lc0277.nerim.net/wiki/index.php?whisplacer it's called whisplacer, it basically just uses the object libraries you've got in your FSX installation and im sure that there is a nav becon in one of the libaries that he could use. so try it out Cheers, Mitchell Sale OZx Developer   From the forum: Show Suggestions from Flinty72 G'Day FSBreak Crew, Loving the show especially the live broadcasts which I was lucky enough to catch the end of today. So I had an idea recently for the show and wanted to put it out to you guys for consideration. Not that I think the shows needs revamping but consider it a possible enhancement, if you think it is worthy... Anyway it struck me that each of you have specific areas of great knowledge & experience within the show. Now what if each you had a dedicated segment in the show to these areas? These segments could then be included into the show in different ways, either all segments each week, fortnightly or monthly or on a rolling rotation making it a monthly cycle between each indiovidual segment. Here is what I had in mind; "Eric's PC Hardware & Software Roundup" (related to flightsimming and PC performance) "Mark's Multisim Persepective" (X-plane, ORBITER, etc.) &/or "GA Flying Instruction Tutorial" (like the recent flying the traffic pattern video discussion) "Brendan's All Things Tubeliner's" (Products, Flying Tips, VA Operations) "Danton's Community Coverage & Super Slueth Inside Scoops" (Community & Developer Rumblings, VATSIM & Other FS Events) Anyway let me know what you think, maybe other listeners have better ideas as well...? Keep up the great work. Flinty. Recommendations Eric: Asus USB 3.0 and SATA III PCI Express Card, and Android Air Control.

A great way to get more in depth coverage on cockpit building in podcast form: Mycockpit.org, the worlds largest community for home cockpit builders is proud to announce two new Podcasts, in association with FSBreak.net.    1. "Tips And Discussions" 2nd Edition, with Ian.  In this Edition of "Tips And Discussions", we talk to the famous Ian, well know for his wonderful B737 project. In this edition we talk all about "Inputs"   2. "Builder Of The Month" for February 2010, Shawn Lund.   Shawn is the creator of an unique project, someone who has chosen something different, since he is not exactly a home cockpit builder but I am sure we can draw a lot of inspiration from his approach..   MyCockpit Podcast can be found here:  http://www.mycockpit.org/forums/content.php?8   Mycockpit continues in the future with further Podcast editions of "Tips And Discussions," Feature Interviews" and "Builder Of the Month" interviews
