That sounds tasty!
I've only had overnight oats one time, but it was delicious. Maybe I'll prep some of them too.
Little cinnamon and maple syrup(or vannila extract) in the chia seed pudding is great. Chia seeds are so odd. Looks like black sand until you add liquid. Then it becomes this gross/cool goop that scraps all the garbage from your intestines. It's basically Draino for your body.

Anyone got any smoothie recipes?
I'd like to try branching out and having a variety. I just tried using oat milk yesterday and I really enjoyed it, so I think I'll switch from normal milk to oat milk.
Oh man. I almost exclusively drink oak milk. It tastes so good.
I know this isn't a smoothie but look up recipes for chia seed pudding and overnight oats. Super simple to make and you can pull them right out the fridge in the morning and eat.

Ok apparently every article that I had read about it previously blew it out of proportion. So I found the people that did the original research:
https://universityofcalifornia.edu/news/you-might-be-making-one-mistake-your-smoothie

This is a plus for me, now I can add nanners again. It just lowers the amount of flavanols that are drawn from berries, not all of the nutritional value.
Interesting article but yeah doesn't seem that big a deal overall. I doubt I'd add a banana to a smoothie that wasn't pb or strawberry anyway.

I got lost in there for like two hours once because the fake sky is disorienting and the hallways go at angles. Also, for reasons unknown you'll follow an exit sign then it'll go to a three way split that says they all go to an exit, but two out of three loop you around back to that same split.

Anyway, I used to go for work related conferences every year. They were a lot of fun the first few times, but it got old fairly quick. It's awesome the first time though.
Yup. Went there for a work conference as well. This vendor was having a tacos and tequila night at one of the restaurants in that spot. I also got turned around for a bit but ended up finding my way out of there by ducking out out a maintenance door.

The immediate surroundings areas of most big towns are exactly the same. Chicago, outer edges of LA, etc.. But the area is a lot more than just the strip. Even outside the strip, UNLV is right there. And a lot of the poverty level people dont really work in the casinos. Casinos pay pretty well and most of the positions are actually unionized. I dont think you really know about Vegas or its community
I don't. Just the vibe/assumption I made from wandering off the strip the one time I was there. Glad to know that perception was wildly incorrect.

Once you leave the strip, you'll see things are kinda run down. It's clear most of the people living in the low end neighborhoods surrounding the strip work at the casinos doing retail, custodial, or food service jobs. Just a lot of poverty level people working as cogs for the fancy casino industry there.

I spent one weekend there. And honestly, as someone who isn't into gambling or non-stop partying, I still really enjoyed just walking up and down the strip and checking out the gaudy af hotels and stuff. I'd go back.
The insides of some of the major casinos are incredible. One I walked around had an entire "outdoor" shopping area with realistic painted sky/cloud ceiling and a river running through the middle of it with gondola rides.

International ending:
After hallucinating the image of Juno, Sarah awakens in the cave, her entire escape having been revealed to be part of the same hallucination. She sits up to see Jessica sitting across from her, holding a birthday cake. As Sarah smiles the shot widens to reveal that the cake's birthday-candlelight is actually the light of her torch. The camera slowly backs out, revealing the darkness surrounding Sarah as the crawlers are heard closing in.

I used to use the action replay, but I think it's really wearing on my slot; so, I invested in first party ram cartridges and really like snk games.
The Saturn cart slot is notorious for going bad. Partly because all those third party carts didn't have beveled edges so it bent the pins as you put them in and took them out regularly. I have one of those red 4-1 carts so I have no reason to remove mine. Just flip the switch at the top between 1MB, 4MB, and AR style backup features.

I want to get a Dreamcast arcade stick. Unless I can find a new or gently used one, I would need to mod it to take Sanwa/Seimitisu buttons as well as a new stick.
Those dreamcast sticks go for a pretty penny these days. If you're just looking to use a fightstick on the dreamcast, you might be interested in the Brook Wingman SD. Allows you to use modern controllers on the Dreamcast and Saturn. It lets me use my X360 fightstick on those two systems.

This is partly true. The batteries do not drain when the console is on, since it gets power through the controller (which is why it still works like a memory card even with dead batteries.) However, the batteries drain when the console is off. This is because, whenever the VMU is plugged in to something, it's sending out a signal trying to interface with whatever it's connected to. If the console is off, then it's not getting power, but it's still sending out that connection signal. Thus, the best thing to do was unplug the VMU when you were done playing.
Appreciate the clarity. I've never even see someone explain this on the dreamcast subreddit. It makes sense but still very bad design.

Are you not taking into consideration that most of the worth while games have been ported? If you're seeing it from that angle of course the dreamcast isn't impressive. You already have the sonic adventures, the crazy taxies, the jet grind radio, soul calibur, shenmue, and pso games on newer platforms. In 2000 all those games were exclusive to the system outside of the arcade. Also nearly all of the arcade ports were arcade perfect. Any ports of psx/n64 games were the best version like THPS.
