The CAPACITOR for my AC unit melted. The tech replaced it and did some maintenance on it for a total of $458 and I'm given a one year guarantee on the repair. Not bad at all, my friends. I can feel my house already cooling down.

I mean it's a capacitor. That one year guarantee is basically fluff cause it will outlive the unit itself. Let's hope the maintenance was detailed cause like I said, you can buy a replacement for less than $50 and to replace you just unplug the old one and plug in the new one.

Fun fact: The capacitor's only purpose is to start the fan blades on top of the outside unit. After it starts, the fan spins on it's own. If you manually spin the fan with your hand, it'll start up and work as intended. When I was waiting for the replacement part, I'd go outside a few times during the day and smack the fan with a stick through the grate. It would start spinning and cool off my house like normal.

Probably the $90 capacitor, fan not spinning?

This was my issue last year. Capacitor was $35 on Amazon.

I like to collector horror games and if I find any interesting old games for cheap I pick them up

You should look up "Haunting starring Polterguy" Great Genesis game where you play as a ghost trying to scare a family out of their house.

Are you into game collecting or just buying older games to play?

I used to watch the show but stopped after a while for some reason

didnt think they would make a movie

While working on season 8, the execs cancelled the show. Couple years after, they green lit a movie which allowed the creators to wrap up the show. Movie was released in July.

The energy for the TV and ppv shows are unreal. People losing their minds. Ton of fun.

Couple WCW house shows and a Nitro.

Couple WWE house shows, Raw, Smack down in the early 2000s, the Summerslam with the first TLC match, and the Survivor Series with WCW vs WWE teams.

TNA's first two ever house shows. Have them on DVD as well.

There are still a couple unanswered questions, and a couple characters dont show up that I wish had, but I thought it was a great ending to the show. Tied most things up brilliantly.

Yup. They did their best to cram an entire season into a movie. You can tell there could have been more and not all questions were answered but they couldn't have done it better.

Season 3 & 4. That's when it went from Johnny Quest parody to something deeper.

When the Blackhawks won the cup and Kane was a youngling, he got all drunk and got on stage with Buffett wearing a chicken hat.

Give that man a Michelin star for his impeccable gourmet meal.

Anyone drinking one for Jimmy Buffett?

My cousin stayed the night with us last night. Him, my wife, and I made jalapeo margaritas last night in honor of the Buffet man. Tasty as hell and trashed as hell.

RIP Jimmy Buffet

Oh shit. I know he was old but that's still surprising.

I have a 32 and 27 inch for my retro gaming setup. Love having all my old consoles hooked up to them via component and s-video. They look amazing and play amazing with the whole no lag aspect.

I got a 13" bubble crt last year and it is fantastic. Great colors/contrast and fairly recently made (2005).

Last month I got a flat 20" crt and it is atrocious. Any scrolling movement looks like there's a gravity well on the left side stretching the image. Then there's what I would describe as a magic carpet effect in the middle. Service menu is a no go with this model.

These things were not meant to be flat I see that now. This experience has deflated my desire to seek out a trinitron much less another crt.

Sorry to hear that. Sounds like you'd need to open it up to either adjust the yoke or apply some magnetic strips to the back of the tube to stretch/fix the image. Simple enough fixes honestly. If you check out the crtgaming subreddit, you'll get a lot of people willing to help.

Terminator

Played it on the SNES. It's not that great of a beat 'em up.

I just took a look at your longplay link. I don't knock the GEMS driver that much on the Genesis but holy shit is that soundtrack awful. That constant irritating beeping is in 90% of the music. The other aspects of the music is really bland.

I was going to post that album but you have it covered. I love that album and it's Sega Genesis soundtrack vibes.

I just realized my account is 22 years old not 21. It had its birthday in June but gamefaqs still says 21 years for its age

That's odd. My user ID is also lower than yours despite my account being created in Nov of the same year.

EmilyTheCEman posted...

Yeah were so old, right guys?

I'm not old but my account sure is.

The key to liking veggies is how you cook and season them. Roast and Sautee is the way to go. Roast some Brussel sprouts with salt, olive oil, fresh garlic, and balsamic vinegar.

Also if the crunch/texture of the veggie is a problem for you, try doing what my wife did for me. When we first started dating, she would overcook any veggie until they were mush. She then started cook them less and less as I slowly adjusted. These days Im cool eating them raw.

Regular veggies we eat include Brussel sprouts, onions, mushrooms, carrots, cabbage, bell peppers, kale, spinach, and asparagus.

Welcome to the club. My grizzled account remembers the old days and looks back fondly.

I don't mind floral as long as it's flavorful. I've heard good things about English breakfast or earl grey but Idk

Both of those are black tea which will be bitter but have the most caffeine. For those, just put some honey/sugar and some milk in them to take away the bitterness. If you want, you can slowly lessen the amount of that stuff you put in the tea as you adjust to the bitterness. Eventually you might find yourself drinking the tea without any of the added stuff.

Looks great. Won't always be able to get it perfect.

I was both cpr and first aid certified from ages 11-25. A friend's mom was a nurse and taught a cert class to our scout troop every year.

lol no

sometimes Ill use hair ties but some cables I use are up to 20ft long

I have 4 midi cables I still have to set up and 2 more on the way ._.

Velcro cable ties can easily fix this. The top half of cables that are coming straight down can all be tied together so it's just one big cable instead of 17 individual cables. The long cables you can wind up the extra slack in the middle and tie it off.

Side note, is most of that ethernet? What do you have that requires that many ethernet cables?

Make sure you are getting velcro cable ties and not plastic zip ties. Can get small adhesive hooks to put on the underside of your desk to run those tied up cables on.

For mounting your power strip, you can either drill a couple screws into your desk and slide them into the power strip slots(most of them have these slot holes on the back) or get a roll of that sticky double sided thick 2 inch velcro. Stick one half to the strip, one half to the desk, then velcro them together. It should hold the weight. Actually velcro is a name brand. Just buy hook and loop tape so it'll be cheaper for the same product.

You can also get some power cables for your monitor and pc that have right angle plugs so they are more flush and out of sight when coming out of your power strip.

Edit: Geez. Other than my power cable suggestion, guy above me posted the same comment nearly word for word. Lol

My mom never let me rent it because she thought it was gross. Odd hill for her to die on considering nearly everything else I had unrestricted access to in clouding watching slasher movies as a young child.

I ended up playing it at my friend's house and later as an adult. It was a decent enough platformer but the level design wasn't all that great. The animations had a lot of character to them on both Boogerman and the enemies.

Fun fact. The studio also made Clay fighters and Earthworm Jim. Both Jim and Boogerman appeared as rivals in the N64 version of Clay fighters 63 1/3rd.

MedeaLysistrata posted...

I MIGHT have played the game but I definitely remember watching the show.

You might be thinking of Earthworm Jim? Boogerman wasn't popular enough to get a TV show

No one cares about the 5200 I guess.

Beautiful game but way too hard. Had to use my game genie for infinite health so I could enjoy all of the game.

Not really. He has 30 years worth of experience in the field but acts like he has 5.

Saw a Facebook post use minus well instead of might as well in a response. When he got called out, dude blamed it on autocorrect.

OK that's a new one. Holy hell.

He does a lot of other small things to show he shouldn't have been hired.

Man I missed the X topic. Surprised you did X-men 1 instead of 2. Most people seem to prefer 2. While it looks great, I don't think the gameplay is that fun compared to 1.

I don't remember this at all.

Seems pretty bad to me.

The longest I've ever lost power for was about 7-8 hours. It was during that huge blackout in 2003 that affected most of the north east U.S. and Ontario.

Considering I spent those days going into the office with a bunch of ac, it wasn't that bad. That Monday night was the only struggle. Tuesday night was at a hotel. Spent the day Wednesday chilling in the backyard as the electrician worked on the house. Worst thing was having to actually go into the office instead of working from home which is very first world problems. Lol

a-c-a-b posted...

How long were you without power?

4:30am Monday until 9pm Wednesday. Not that bad overall. It's been 95 degrees with shit ton humidity these last two weeks. Slept in the house Monday night sweating the night away, insurance gave us a hotel Tuesday night, and back home Wednesday night. All the food in our two fridges had to be thrown out which was a lot.
