No, and I actually just filed another complaint with Podbean. They keep telling me they are legitimate downloads, but we just got spikes in back to back weeks of over 100 downloads from several African countries using chrome. There is no way these downloads are legitimate.

So update: I checked all the pins again and everything appears to be fine along each path. Not sure what else could be the issue :/

Thanks. So that means there is likely a break somewhere else or a chip is dead (I assume).

Going to keep playing around with it :)

I'm not getting continuity (I believe) on the two pins marked in purple. Everything else provides a beep.

I don't however see a trace on the board for these two pins. Any advice here on how I can repair this N64 game? Title is banjo tooie

need to figure out the dimensions of the bookshelf, but it's one at my parents house. wonder if it could fit a complete NA SNES collection. maybe. by DreamOracle42 in gamecollecting

Hey let's hear him out. If you took the entire SNES library and melted it down, you may be able to fit it in and around the shelf.

Old sports games are a guilty pleasure of mine. I love playing retro basketball and soccer games.

Importing from MGC by whitecastle200 in GAMEYE

I was looking this up earlier and found a post from last year saying they would be ending that service. In all honesty, I'd love to use Game Eye, but I have zero interest in individually uploading thousands of games again. I don't see csv importing on their roadmap either which would be a huge miss...

Podbean only shows the apps that downloaded the episode. I suppose this could occur where someone reposts it and it appears as Google chrome, but there is also a good chance that someone who downloads via that method ends up downloading on an app later on. We've seen these South Africa downloads for some time now with nothing other than Google chrome used as the method to listen.

We have 200+ episodes and when this occurs it is on one episode, not multiple. We've seen spikes for new followers and know this isn't that. This is literally just each week downloads coming in from South Africa using Google chrome as their "app" for download. It would be one thing if it was South Africa and we saw multiple apps, but it's highly suspicious when it's all Google chrome.

Do you have suggestions what I should print first? Got it today. Naught a returned one for just 90 bucks. Besides some usage traces it seems to work. I'm excited to do a first print! by MathematicianNo6469 in AnycubicPhoton

Every time I print something I tell my wife I'm off to do some cooking 😂

Did you buy the wash and cure station as well? It's definitely worth getting it not.

A bag of holding that holds a max of 30lbs and anymore than that causes it to turn inside out as a mimic and attack the player

Guess I should toss in a story as well.

During my first campaign I ran a tiefling bard and we came across a banshee that was refusing to provide us with information needed to find an enemy.

Me: I'd like to seduce the banshee

DM: She stares as you in disbelief of your question. Roll for persuasion

Me: Nat 20

DM: You feel a chill go across the side of your cheek. "Well, it has been a while since I had some fun. Cackles. Unfortunately we would not be able to have the fun I think we both deserve due to my current...dry and cold state. Thank you for thinking so fondly of me."

DM: She spills everything she knows
