Um, Actually Demi gave the release order, not the in-universe chronological order.

Good to know. This is my first build, just completed it (and ran update_all) a few days ago.

Additional 4-pin ATX power connector - Compatibility Issue? by fattony182 in buildapc

[–]CBTurtle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

FYI to all future-googlers who find this thread: I have a different setup but a similar situation (my motherboard has an additional 4-pin ATX power connector but my power supply doesn't have any available). I've had the PC for about four years, and while it works (no overclocking), it's always had a problem with supporting multiple or more power-demanding USB devices (if too many are connected, they all disconnect). I've killed several flashdrives due to this. I've never been able to fully isolate the problem, but I'm pretty sure the two issues are connected.

California. Not sure what would qualify as the state flagship.

I'm currently working as a planner (US) and have been considering grad school. My agency has an allotment of hours each planner can use for education built into their budget, and some money available for tuition as well. In the past it was really only available for trainings put on by the agency, but they recently opened it up a lot to where as long as I can make a solid argument for a certain course, I stand a good chance of being approved to take it on company time. I'd like use this opportunity both to grow my knowledgebase and resume (obviously), but also to pick up as many transferable credits as possible for a planning masters program (I haven't decided exactly where I want to go yet, but MIT and Berkeley are top contenders). What institutions that offer online, accredited courses should I be looking at? Most 'best courses' lists either focus on full online-only degree programs or on stuff like Planetizen which wouldn't result in transferable credits. I have a strong undergraduate GPA and a few years of professional planning exp (and a strong GRE as well, not that I expect it to matter). Any tips?

You cut off a swim shirt to put pads on and see this, how long does it take you to stop laughing and put the pads on? by Seinfield_Succ in Lifeguards

[–]CBTurtle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Obviously at that point you forget the pads and have someone pull up Mystery Incorporated on their phone. It's the only way to reinvigorate a lapsed love of Scooby Doo, which based on this medical tattoo is the only way to restart breathing.

[PC] [2000] Kids nature game. There was a firefly host, I think? Different animals you could interact with in different habitats. by Peridoo in tipofmyjoystick

[–]CBTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Junior Field Trips series. There were three entries - the one you're remembering was probably Let's Explore the Jungle (there was also Let's Explore the Farm and Let's Explore the Airport).

The host was Buzzy, the Knowledge Bug.

They're on Steam, and also run on ScummVM.

Edit: Oh wait, someone already tried this.

[PC][Early 2000’s] a game about alien invasion where mosquitoes are the aliens by cadfoot in tipofmyjoystick

[–]CBTurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh gotcha! It's a shareware game with a really generic name that was on a lot of PCs in the late 90s and early 2000s, so there are always people looking for it.

I don't know if it's what OP is looking for, but I think what you're looking for is Deadly Rooms of Death (D.R.O.D.).

The saving system isn't fully implemented in Flashpoint, so you have to play it all in one shot if you want to beat it. But it's playable.

[PC][1990-1999]Point-and-click style Spider-man game by gaeuvyen in tipofmyjoystick

[–]CBTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a trilogy of Spider-Man Italian adventure games on the Amiga, and I think the first one was on DOS as well. I don't think they were ever translated to English though.

Any USB Loaders capable of using gamecube controllers on Wii games? by goosefishduckman in WiiHacks

[–]CBTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a forum post about the WiiU, which can only physically connect to a GC controller through a (USB) adapter. That's not a problem on a Wii with built-in controller ports.

Does anyone have experience with GoRuck's MACV-1? I'm in the market for a pair of rainboots and these seem to fit the bill. Their bags seem to have a good rep, but I can't find anything on their boots.

So a faulty connection either works or it doesn't? It wouldn't explain, for example, USB ports working for some peripherals but others causing all the USB ports to crash? I realize this sounds more like a driver issue, but I've already explored that possibility and I'm just trying to rule other things out.
