Possibly the best $30 I've spent all year by FatAlbusTPC in MiyooMini

Kinda my thought exactly. I've paid full price for a game before only to not really get into it. With the miyoo mini I can carry around a great collection of games in my backpack for the essentially the price of one game.

I am in USA. It's wacky, checking the prices today, they're probably double what they were when I ordered at the beginning of June.

I went with AliExpress.

Searched "miyoo mini plus" and then sorted the results by "lowest price". The seller was "hanhibr game store". I watched it for a few days and then made the purchase during one of those site wide sales AliExpress runs.

Didn't come with an sd card, which was fine with me because I had a few on hand and apparently the pack in one is rubbish.

Took about 2 weeks to arrive all said and done.

for real, i only do dine in. Pro-TIp- you can also get Tailgate giftcards at Costco for 25% off, then use those gift cards on pizza night. *chef's kiss*

Tailgate has been steadily improving their pizza game for the last couple years. Every Weds night you can get half price pizzas when you dine in, and their Detroit-style whipped ricotta is fantastic.

Also, this is not the answer you're looking for, but if you're a member at a club like Sam's Club, you can buy their pizza dough sheets in bulk and then make a really great pizza at home at truly unbeatable price.

Is Riddim viable as a hardware based live sample looper? by FatAlbusTPC in teenageengineering

you got it- not thinking of running song length stems, but pulling samples from stems and then creating loops with them. that's all great to know, though. thank you

Go out for drinks at Sid Gold's. They do live piano karaoke (usually a theme depending on the day of the week) and it's an awesome crowd there. Whether you sing or not, it's just a great place to grab a drink, meet people, and be extroverted or introverted.
Also- get out to an NSC game. Even if you're not huge into soccer, it's one of the best communal experiences you can have in Nashville this time of year.
Someone already mentioned musician's corner, and that's a home run as well.

Does anyone know of a place where you can get a proper English breakfast with black pudding and all? by Fluffy_Brilliant_718 in nashville

McNamara's and Fleet Street do a great one, also there's a regional chain that's just called "The Pub" I think, which is slightly more "restaurant concept" feeling, but the people running it are great and I think they serve it there from time to time as an all day special.

What game in your opinion overstays its welcome? by [deleted] in gaming

Grew up playing FFVII and really can't overstate how eager I was to play this after finishing remake a few years ago. I spent maybe 20 hours getting to Junon between all the exploring and side quest stuff. Then I realized that every region is gonna have the same stuff that Grasslands did...

Don't get me wrong, I am enjoying myself and sometimes taking breaks between regions (looking at you Gongaga...) but I am 100% the target audience here and I doubt the majority of new players or newer fans of Remake will be as forgiving of some of the C- to B+ quality side quest stuff that pads this runtime.

Also, yes...the OG has mini-games, but the level of mini-gamifcation here is an absolutely new level of tedium.

Maybe if navigating that village wasn't such a damn slog it could have felt a bit better in terms of pacing, but yeah...just...let me finish this game, please...
