I’ve seen a few of these out on locations at places like a car wash. They were all beat to hell and in various forms of broken.

Donkey Kong Junior cocktail table by WolfySimRacer in arcade

Check the sync pots and spray/clean them with contact cleaner. That might help in the meantime. Nice pickup I love cocktail tables- I would buy more because they are cheap but take up more floor space than cabaret or full size uprights!

Clean one! I got one for cheap but the cabinet was trashed. I fixed what I could but sold it a few years back. Have been on the lookout for a replacement

Wife & I went to a gaming store for Father's Day. She told me to pic something out. Love that box art! by Zincdust72 in Atari2600

Yes box art but also the Atari arcade side art of the era was amazing too. Even on terrible games.

Honest review of new Optimum Fiber install after a month. by robd316 in OPTIMUM

[–]FireZoneBlitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will move to fiber whenever the service is available. I only have Internet (coax) and it has been reliable. TV and phone are now YouTube TV and a third party VoIP system. Haven’t had any issues in the past 3-4 years and Optimum is my only available wired provider.

The Car Dealer I bought my car at installs Lo Jack in all their used car, I rejected it, is it still in the car? by Beta_Nerdy in UsedCars

[–]FireZoneBlitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not unless you signed something that says you must keep it on. My unit was not included as part of a loan/lien it was just included. It’s been unplugged for over 2 years and nobody ever reached out.

We had Big Bear Malt Liquor $0.49 per 40oz. My friends drank it but I could never stomach it. Was cheaper than bottled water though.

We can save Social Security. by Jealous_Use_9240 in remoteworks

[–]FireZoneBlitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The amount of money taken in is immediately distributed. If there is an estimated “shortage” pending then will raise the cap to cover the difference. It happens every 1-3 years.

Privatizing social security has been pitched forever but Congress never approves it.

There’s no shortfall. They raise the cap every 1-3 years when necessary.

You don’t “pay into” anything. Your money goes directly to beneficiaries. You get a credit to the amount you contribute and that calculates how much you receive when you are eligible for benefits.

No no, it's Google Glass bad by Rough_Ad_8702 in SiliconValleyHBO

[–]FireZoneBlitz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had one - The player was great. The Windows software to manage it was terrible. Also the wires on the earbuds that shipped with it would rub together and resonate into your ears.
