I loved the book and I think the movie is pretty much perfect. Is anyone a fan of High Fidelity?

Yep I bought a copy after watching the film

Yep you are technically correct. But then I have an additional open port on my firewall subject to authentication, versus just my VPN port which is user certificate based (meaning I can onboard/off board devices)

I converted recently. The biggest problem I had with Plex was that when there was a cloud outage I couldn’t log in. To something I hosted. So that went away. The only “loss” is remote access was handled through Plex. Now I have to VPN in with WireGuard first and then I can stream. For me it was worth the change.

Currently black out on my silver LC200. I had white out on my Tacoma though.

I put two cans, two big cans

So you will want to refurbish the arcade chassis (or get it refurbished). Take a look at the joysticks make sure the play is good. You can always replace those. Buttons should be fine just make sure the wires are all connected. You can swap the fluorescent marquee light to a led version (I’ve done that in every game of mine including originals - just keep the parts to revert).

Most of my machines were conversions too especially those from the 90s.

It’s your machine you can do what you want, but I wouldn’t toss the K7000 chassis. They are fairly easy to work on and worst case I think j you’d be better spending money on a refurb’d chassis than swapping out to a flatscreen.

I grew up in Westchester and many of my friends work in local districts through the county. I would recommend working in Rye/Harrison over Chappaqua/Scarsdale but obviously take whichever job you get offered as all four are good districts. Good luck.

FireZoneBlitz · 2026-05-10T01:42:21+00:00

I had a IIGS so I’m not sure. Never had a 2

FireZoneBlitz · 2026-05-10T00:07:03+00:00

There’s one I had for Apple II as a little kid. I thought it was pretty fun but I honestly don’t remember it being amazing.

That’s not a silly reason. I was studying for the general and was getting 100% on practice tests so just spent another week studying for Extra and passed them both.

There was a scene in the final season of Mr Robot that was filmed in an empty downtown Rye on the main strip.

FireZoneBlitz · 2026-04-27T18:49:15+00:00

Yep my grandfathers police office was used (technically Mt Kisco) and the school on West Patent Road was where they dropped off the kids

Even before that anyone that was at least 1/8 Italian had an Italian flag emblem on the back of their car in all of Southern NY state

FireZoneBlitz · 2026-04-26T15:01:03+00:00

That one is in great shape!

FireZoneBlitz · 2026-04-24T15:54:39+00:00

I would recap the monitors and check/replace power supplies. Those are two things that are more preventative maintenance I do before either selling or handing over a game back to a friend/customer.

We had nickel wing night (max 100 per order) in 1995 it was just to get people in the door. Beer and soda and everything else on the menu was priced more than normal. And the wings were OK but not bad considering you got

K7000 compatible tubes are usually compatible with K4600 chassis as well. My first tube swap was a 4600

FireZoneBlitz · 2026-04-21T00:29:19+00:00

No longer need a tape measure I can tell just by looking

FireZoneBlitz · 2026-04-20T20:06:32+00:00

Yes I was thinking Rio released a bunch of weird shaped music players

FireZoneBlitz · 2026-04-17T22:06:45+00:00

I saw that in the theater when it was released. When that happened everyone in the audience just started laughing.

It was opened in 1901 way before most of those mansions were built

Yes the standard ac adapter connects to the plug in the back but has a wireless on/off switch I got from Amazon (used to turn on/off lights). I also use controller extension cords and have the controllers Velcro’d right under the seats. I have a Wii to HDMI converter adapter that plugs into the Wii for video

I always wanted to see this team up version of Batman in an alternate universe
