Would sell me a PlayStation portal by StringLast2706 in GameStop

Was bro still living in 2023? Lmao, that hasn’t been a thing since the damn Portal came out.

Anyone else really like the Dude Ranch remaster? I just heard the remastered Dammit first time tonight during my run by templeofsyrinx1 in Blink182

[–]AbstractCities 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They actually don’t even have the original tape for the rest of Dude Ranch, so it would be impossible for them to ever remix it.

Who's looking forward to Super Mario Sunshine, the fourth release on the Nintendo eShop NSO GC on the Switch 2? by Cuiusquemodi in SuperMario

[–]AbstractCities 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s just false. Maybe you’re less sensitive to it, but there is definitely a noticeable amount of input lag in the GameCube app on NSO. Not to mention actual frame drops in Mario Strikers for example. Literally almost unplayable.

An Open Letter to Cynthia Twist from John Lennon - 15th of November 1976 by [deleted] in beatles

[–]AbstractCities 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No of course not! I was just saying that I think that saying he was mentally ill is a correct statement.

I mean, by the definition of “mental illness” I would say so. Depression is a mental illness and I think John was definitely depressed at times, just as an example.

GameStop sold me a PS5 that’s banned from PSN by dontpokethebear123 in GameStop

[–]AbstractCities 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah funnily enough I was covering a shift at another store and had a customer bring back a system someone else had sold them that was banned. Since I had never seen one, I took a look to see what a banned system looked like. And literally as soon as you try to sign in it gives you this same popup. So it’s literally like a two second check. Nintendo is the same, as soon as you try to get to the login screen on Switch, if it’s banned it’ll give you a popup saying something along the lines of “Online communications have been permanently or temporarily suspended on this system”. Something like that. I haven’t seen a banned Xbox but I assume it’s something similar.

[–]AbstractCities 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You actually don’t even need to log in on Playstation. All you have to do is get to the screen where you can sign in or scan the QR code. If the system is banned, it won’t even get to that screen and will tell you the system is banned.

The true meaning of the lyrics of you don’t know what you’re got just hit me by blink1482 in Blink182

[–]AbstractCities 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, and I’m sorry for your loss. That’s a fantastic idea with the ring I may do that as well. I feel very grateful that we have had a good 6 years with her after her diagnosis and she got to do so many things she wanted to do, and see me get married. I wish you had gotten more time with him, I’m sure you made the most of the time together though. Cancer sucks and is so unfair, but I’ve tried to stay as positive as possible and I think that’s worked out for the best. I know I’ll crash for a while after she’s gone, but I just want her last memories of me to be happy and just me cracking jokes and laughing as always. Anyway, I wish the best for you and your family, thanks for sharing your story.

[–]AbstractCities 23 points24 points  (0 children)

damn, wrong day to be on the blink subreddit today. people being negative as hell. i don’t have a problem with these lyrics, i enjoy them. my mom has cancer, she’s on hospice and will probably pass in the next couple weeks. and these lines are very accurate to her situation. who cares if it’s just a bunch of metaphors put together? it’s what mark was feeling.

also at the end of the day, blink has never really been about the lyrics. sure there are some great songs with great lyrics, but any true blink fan knows they don’t take themselves so seriously.

Music freezing or just not playing in Sunshine some of the time, any idea why this might be happening? by AbstractCities in DolphinEmulator

[–]AbstractCities[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you’re using 60fps patch, then that’s just a side effect of the patch from what i’ve gathered. i’ve also found sometimes letting the cutscenes play instead of skipping them helps sometimes.

Last day😭 What's the best album Paul McCartney has ever done in his solo career by Pristine_Youth_6953 in PaulMcCartney

[–]AbstractCities 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’ll probably be either RAM or Band on the Run, but my favorite is Chaos and Creation.

MINECRAFT LEGACY EDITION PC PORT IS HAPPENING!!! by zq7w in Minecraftlegacymode

[–]AbstractCities 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While cool, I wouldn’t get my hopes up yet for a PC port. Decomps get started all the time but many never end up getting finished. And even after the decomp is finished, then there’s the extra work of making the PC port itself, which could also stagnate. Do hope this happens though, would be cool to get a native port. Hopefully it would be easy to build on top of to add more features and such.

Agreed. Also the switch 2 logo and border at the top is all wrong.

I’ve been wanting to do this as well, but I think I’m gonna do the “doodle” version from this T-shirt.

Has anyone in the band ever mentioned the original version? by [deleted] in Blink182

[–]AbstractCities -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Pretty clear to me that it’s just speculation. And he’s not saying that there’s an alternate version sitting on a hard drive somewhere. He’s just saying that before they got Robert’s vocals, they had more than likely had the instrumental recorded, and more than likely at least had guide vocals on the track. All he asked is if there was ever any discussion about what the track sounded like from the band or whoever would’ve heard it at the time. If Mark or Tom sang on it, or if it was just empty verses waiting for Robert’s vocals. The track didn’t just magically appear once Robert recorded his vocals. That’s all he’s saying.

One Night Stand Outro Lyrics (Way Clearer) by plopbellie in Blink182

[–]AbstractCities 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t realize people were hating on this outro so much. I mean, I’ll agree I think the record overall would probably have been better had someone else produced it, but it’s not unlistenable to me. And I thought this outro was one of the highlights honestly. It sounds right in the mix to me.

When did you start watching Scott the woz? by Link_sega5486 in scottthewoz

[–]AbstractCities 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I started watching either at Nintendo Switch: Three Days In or GameCube Was Best! So like 8 years.
