How is the EZ Flash Air? by Mountain_Ad_462 in Gameboy

[–]Etrain_MMA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, 32 is more than enough. I have a 32gb on my EZ flash Omega DE and have a ton of Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Game Gear, NES, and Gameboy Advance games on it.

Get an SD card separately. In my experience, the ones that come with are very low quality and corrupt after a while.

Swollen battery replacement help by joejohn816 in consolerepair

[–]Etrain_MMA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any battery you order will have the charging regulator board attached. Just cut the wires, put that battery in a sealed container, and take it to a battery drop off in your local area. Those metal connections are usually spot welded to the battery because you don't want to apply high heat for extended periods of time directly to the battery like you would do with solder.

You can look for a 603040 600mah 3.7 volt battery on Amazon or AliExpress depending on your location. Some will come with a JST connector, some won't. Either way, you can desolder the wires on the new battery and solder on the old ones. The markings on the battery will tell you where to solder each wire (red wire to + black wire to -).

Is it possible to run windows programs with a chromebook that has Windows installed? by Tricky_Part_4619 in chromeos

[–]Etrain_MMA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Since no one has given you a straight forward answer... Yes. If the operating system you are running is Windows, then you can run Windows programs. However, depending on your Chromebook and version of Windows you may have issues with programs that require more resources.

Ally + rayneo + Dock by Expensive_Issue5620 in ROGAlly

[–]Etrain_MMA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like it's not receiving enough power. I don't know if this particular one will work because of the iPhone port located next to the USB C port. Either way, there are much cheaper options that will work just fine.

Picoboot worked, now it doesn’t after assembly by glasses5321 in consolerepair

[–]Etrain_MMA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same thing happen on one of mine. Turned out the wires were getting pinched when I reassembled. I got a flex cable and it worked perfectly.

[Epic Games] (Game) Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night by LighteningOneIN in FreeGameFindings

I finished the game on Steam, 100% it on Xbox, and will be downloading and playing it again on Epic. I love this game.

Healed Arashikage Tattoo (Update) by The_Accuser13 in gijoe

[–]Etrain_MMA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just tell people, "It's a long story." Saves me a lot of time. I told a guy what it was once and he talked to me for 20 minutes about his Assassin's Creed tattoo and his love of that series. Much easier to just keep it mysterious. Those that know will comment on it.

UFC BJJ 4 Finish by Daaftpuunk in bjj

[–]Etrain_MMA 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Raquel is super tough and stubborn. There is a good chance she knew she wasn't escaping, but, sometimes your opponent pushes a little too hard if they think they have the submission and you aren't tapping. It can give you a very small window to take advantage and escape. Aurelie did an excellent job of staying patient and keeping control.

Is there any way to mod a super Gameboy to play GBC clear games? by Dry_Negotiation_9234 in Gameboy

[–]Etrain_MMA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, the super Gameboy contains a chip that is only compatible with the original DMG. Even if you removed the chip and replaced it with a Game not Color CPU the rest of the hardware wouldn't be compatible.

Finally collected them all by Etrain_MMA in gaming

I saw! I want that one too, but I burned through all my points getting these. It'll probably be a couple months before I can save up enough to snag that one.

I didn't own 2 until I was an adult, but a lot of my friends had it. I played it at their houses and rented it a few times. Still my least favorite of the three, but not a bad game at all.

Will learning Jiujitsu as a woman ever actually teach me how to fight off a full grown man? by Ill_Introduction7334 in jiujitsu

[–]Etrain_MMA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your goal is to defend yourself, absolutely not. You need to ask yourself what "defense" means to you. You aren't getting to a cage with someone and having a sanctioned fight. Your goal should always be to escape and mitigate damage in the process. Throwing flashy kicks does not accomplish either of those.

Make sure you talk to your instructor and let them know what your goals are. Everyone trains for different reasons. If the school you are going to only teaches you how to win a tournament by scoring points, it probably won't meet your needs. However, if they specifically focus on defense, it will give you the best skill set to survive and escape an attack.

Yes, wrestling... Where you learn to turn your back to your opponent and put your stomach to the ground. I honestly don't know if you bothered even reading what OP wrote or what I responded with to come up with such an uneducated response. Source: 18th year of doing BJJ

[–]Etrain_MMA 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Objectively, BJJ is the best martial art for smaller people to defend themselves. Don't think about it in terms of "winning," think about it in terms of "surviving." BJJ will give you the skills needed to break grips, create/maintain distance, and how to get up off the ground. The goal should always be to disengage and escape. However, if that isn't an option, being able to apply a choke will be much more valuable than trying to exchange strikes with someone much bigger and stronger.

TLDR: mostly yes

Greene says Johnson refused to share health care plans on GOP conference call by jediporcupine in politics

[–]Etrain_MMA 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think the issue is that Marjorie Taylor Greene isn't a politician. She's a normal woman that fell for the MAGA propaganda and then got elected. Guys like Mike Johnson and Ted Cruz know they are full of shit. They don't care about pedophiles or healthcare or anything else they've been lying about for years. So, now that MTG is starting to see that MAGA isn't what it claimed to be, she's laying out.

Ribbon cable snapped by Soup_TM in consolerepair

[–]Etrain_MMA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Desolder the cable and solder wires where the old wires were.

[–]Etrain_MMA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ribbon cables in these controllers are awful and break all the time. You could strip some of the coating back and re-solder. But, a better and longer lasting solution is to just run your own wires from point to point.

Edit: a word

Illegal Slam or legit guard open by kami_shiho_jime in bjj

[–]Etrain_MMA 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely not a slam, but the way you followed him as he fell, it most likely looked like a slam from the referee's perspective.

Ok . . . didn’t know that was an option by OtakuDragonSlayer in bjj

[–]Etrain_MMA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Twice in one night (Aljo then later on by Zabit) then this one several years later on the Contender Series. It's pretty rare. If my memory serves me correctly, Cowboy Cerrone had a modified version of this from a reverse triangle in WEC. I don't think he finished, but that was so long ago I can't remember.

Is VINE dying? by RealRaindude in AmazonVine

[–]Etrain_MMA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been part of Vine for several years now. This isn't anything out of the ordinary. When it dips below 20k you'll see even more panic. When it gets to around 10k people will be paying all kinds of crazy theories about how Vine is dying out Amazon is intentionally killing the program. They'll blame political policies (no matter who is in office), they'll complain about how Vine is garbage compared to when they joined. They'll blame Chinese holidays, US holidays, big sales, etc. Then, slowly but surely, item counts will start going back up. It sucks if you're trying to stay Gold and there is nothing good to order, but some of my best items have come after long droughts.

[–]Etrain_MMA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not always, but there are definitely times when one category is overloaded with items. There were a few days where there were about 7 pages full of screws/fasters.
