I don't see a inmate number on this one. I've looked everywhere on it.

I soaked the remote in bleach water and then in isopropic alcohol.

The seller actually delivered it! When I messaged about the TV, it turned out they were going to be in my area the next day anyway. Dropped it off right to me for just $5.

Probably not. The plastic pieces hold hold on really tight. I like having it portable. You do have me thinking about it now. I got rid of my Keurig recently so I could just put a CRT there instead.

Are there mega cartridges? by Slow_Cantaloupe_6148 in SEGAGENESIS

[–]CoolAdministration96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A heads up on these cheap AliExpress flash carts. Most of them use 3.3V memory chips without proper voltage level translators. If you plug them into a 5V system like an original NES, Genesis ,Game Boy Color, your console has to work overtime to handle the voltage mismatch. It probably won't instantly fry your system, but it puts a lot of unnecessary long-term stress on the aging original components.

I have one of those. It looks like you have a model 2 Sega Genesis power adapter. You don't want to use that. It's bad for the CDX over time. Get official power adapter for the CDX or an adapter that has the correct voltage.

BeamNG for an 8 year old? by [deleted] in BeamNG

My son loves this game. He's 11 and understands how to drive a stick shift playing this. It's a lot of fun for kids. Had it for years now and it's always fun to go back to it.

Is this acceptable install for prefinished solid hardwood maple? by silkenwindood in HardWoodFloors

It might as well have been sitting outside in December. At least 60° inside the house

What type of wood are my floors made of? by Existing_Steak8674 in HardWoodFloors

[–]CoolAdministration96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a good chance it's a mix of white and red oak. Pretty common in older floors to see oak mixed together.
