BlazinBlue88 02/25/21 5:14:17 PM #471 | You get full stereo sound. Popular cable for this is Microsoft zune 3.5mm to composite cable. Think it's just TRRS which is fine cause you wouldn't need a mic for most games. --- |

BlazinBlue88 02/25/21 5:07:36 PM #469 | Questionmarktarius posted... then... where does the sound go?Both audio and video can output either with the hdmi port or the 3.5mm headphone port. Really funky I know but there are 3.5 mm to composite cables out there. --- |

BlazinBlue88 02/25/21 5:02:34 PM #467 | Questionmarktarius posted... You can't hook a digital output to an analog CRT and expect to eliminate lag. It's gotta be analog all along the way.You can use composite through the audio jack on the Pi. The audio jack would be considered analog in this case right or no? I'm blanking at the moment. --- |

BlazinBlue88 02/25/21 5:00:21 PM #465 | Yup. Honestly, it kinda puts me off from playing it outside of arcade games with unlimited credits. If you wanna play something seriously like completing Crash 3, you're screwed. It's great for BSing with people for a game night. I'd play Mario Party 1-3 with my wife on it and there were some minigames that were impossible for us to win because of it. Even if you notice the lag, it's crazy how much there actually is. Once I hooked up my Genesis again on a CRT, it was night and fucking day. --- |

BlazinBlue88 02/25/21 4:52:53 PM #463 | Yeah I used an old wired 360 controller for a while then got some 8BitDo wireless controllers. I've been thinking about hooking my pi up to my CRT to help with the lag and play some systems I don't own but it seems like a hassle. --- |

BlazinBlue88 02/25/21 4:42:01 PM #461 | Sounds fun man. I was heavy into the RetroPie scene a couple years back. I went all out adding a ton of consoles to it, menu screen music, performance tuning, etc. I fell out of it when I got a CRT and hooked up my old consoles though. What controllers are you using for your pi? --- |

I was so fucking lazy about the names I just named the first one the month I got her in, and the other one I found in August as well so I just named her Autumn..... But I call Autum "Boots" and I call August "Augy or Boogies". I've never done that with dogs but honestly they all tend to answer to "hey shithead!" more than any other name.Yeah. The nicknames are the baby/potato, the big boy, the asshole, and the dumb one/weenie. Those are four separate dogs... The one with the nickname weenie actually answers to it. --- |

BlazinBlue88 02/19/21 9:29:46 AM #20 | Sad_Face posted... You'll be making the biggest mistake of your life if you do that.Mistake, maybe. Biggest mistake, doubtful. Paying off a $250k house that I've lived in for less than 2 years and saving hundreds of thousands on PMI and general interest wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. Especially considering the small amount I've put into buying Chainlink. Honestly I have set cash out goals for myself since entering the crypto world back in '17. Each time my goals have been met, I'd rode it out to higher goals. I say this now but I'm sure when it hits $100, I won't cash out. Plus I have other crypto that's doing well so not like I'll be out of the game. How long do you think it'll be before Chainlink hits the $100 mark? I wouldn't be surprised if it hit $50 at minimum by alt season this summer. Possibly $100 this time next year? --- |

I always forgetHaven't heard about this but I bought a fair bit of it back in '17 based on ClearF's advice. Bought at $0.50 and now it's around $35 and continuing to go up. Might cash out when it hits $100 and pay off my mortgage. --- |

When they ask when you'll start/last day, tell them you wanted to provide the standard two weeks but your new employer is insistent you start within 1.5 weeks. --- |

Wake up. Bang 2 bags. Its 2pm. 8 bags left. Pass out. Wake up at 4. Bang a bag. 7 bags left."Well I'm sure not everyone is that organized. If you're smart and know you need something you keep track of it. Not so different from groceries. Some people wait until the fridge is completely empty before going grocery shopping. Smart people make sure they never run out of food. Same for drugs or alcohol. --- |

You've told several stories about her anxiety and flipping out over things that don't actually exist. My wife had that paranoia when we were dating. Then we got her into therapy and on medication. It's improved things immensely. You gotta remember...her acting like this...she can't control. She isn't choosing to freak out. She can't help it and the more she cares about you, the higher her anxiety will be over possibly losing you. --- |
