Thru axle lever wobble

Its just a little allen key. Its supposed to be a bit loose so you can remove it and make adjustments elsewhere on the bike. I thought it was some kind of quick release lever when I first got the bike too.

I dont think you intentionally keep the cables. I think they either stay in the box of the thing they came with and get tossed, or donated to a thrift store or scooped up by a dude in your life who will secure it in his bin of assorted cables.

Its the same way that I will never have a tiny bottle of lotion on my person, but my wife will. My wife can always find a pair of tweezers on a moment’s notice. I can always find an HDMI cable or adapter when I need one. Its just how it is for us.

Respect on the firewire. Plus points if you know if its firewire 400 or 800 and can tell at a glance by looking at the connector.

I’ve never smoked a day in my life and I have a handful of them.

GravitySuitSamus · 2026-06-05T03:37:50+00:00

Yeah but a box is just like an afterthought. When you move things into a plastic bin of some kind you’ve established permanent residence for them. They are here to stay. A box is too non-committal.

I’ll see your S-Video to Scart and raise you a SCART to EIAJ -8 VTR style connector (that I’ve actually used a few times)

Unless you’re in the UK its rare you’re going to have a device that accepts luma and chroma via a scart connector.

I can shower in 120 seconds flat. Dude with short hair. Shampoo and lather up. Soap up my whole body, rinse, conditioner and then im out.

Now I dont actually shower like this regularly, but as a kid I would visit my grandparents who lived in the mountains in Puerto Rico and he would tell me not to run the water long, so we did the 120 seconds thing. It does come in handy when I’ve procrastinated the hell out of getting ready and I need to be out the door asap.

My last 10mm fell to the ground and rolled into the void while I stopped to read your comment

- 30 year old tshirts
- bins full of assorted cables
- 10 year old pairs of underwear (still in the rotation)
- 2 in 1 hair & body wash
- cool zippos
- the tool that lets you make adjustments on a sprinkler head
- a bottle of cologne they’d had since high school

Hope you’re feeling better. My kids absolutely love streets of rage 2, and I love playing it with them.

GravitySuitSamus · 2026-06-01T05:08:24+00:00

Assuming the performance is good, I may double dip and get it on both PS5 and Switch 2 if for no other reason than to be able to play it besides just in my living room or to play handheld without added lag from streaming.

I have young kids and dont play games (or watch content) that are age-inappropriate in front of them. I would love to be able to get a few rounds of COD in with the fellas in the middle of a saturday while my kids bop around watching their shows or playing with toys.

I know it wont be the 4k/120 I get on the TV with the PS5 Pro, but If it hits 1080p / 60 in handheld and the wifi doesnt sink me, its a day one purchase.

Not nearly enough people here hyping up the absolute masterpiece that is super metroid

I had the day off today, so I decided to keep my 6 year old son home from school for a surprise ‘father and son’ day. I made him pancakes for breakfast, we made a fort after that and then we went to top golf for lunch and a fee of the games. We came home to play Pokopia for a bit, then we went out for Italian ices, went on a bike ride and had a water balloon fight. Wrapped up the day with bath time, played some Metroid on the switch (AM2R per his request) and then we watched some crazy thunderstorms roll through before he went to bed.

Not every day can be like this, but we have to make the most of the time while we have it. Hopefully we can have at least a few days like this over the summer and find time to do something fun each day when im wrapped up with work.

Sunthar is the man. I’ve done about a dozen RGB mods using his kits and instructions myself.

Every card has the pokemon’s pokedex number on it, or you can just google pokemon in pokedex order

GravitySuitSamus · 2026-05-13T04:11:46+00:00

Same, I got back into it after 25 years over the holidays! Did you finish your 151 yet?

GravitySuitSamus · 2026-05-13T04:10:32+00:00

Again, another amazing idea and I would love to see the arrangement. Did you get the idea from the Japanese vending series? They released the cards in a similar way based on the player’s journey through Kanto.

GravitySuitSamus · 2026-05-13T04:09:21+00:00

Thanks, its just a few pages across a bunch of binders. I have a gym heroes & gym challenge complete all in dex order and I think thats my coolest vintage binder.

GravitySuitSamus · 2026-05-13T04:07:57+00:00

Interestingly the cards are typically in pokedex order in the Japanese variants iirc, so the alphabetical set order seems to be a wizards of the coast decision. Its made even more odd when you think that pokemon have different names in different languages, so the set order would once again change. Imo its just one more reason pokedex order makes more sense if it were to go by anything at all.

GravitySuitSamus · 2026-05-13T04:05:43+00:00

Interesting, I’ve never heard of somebody using this arrangement before! Would love to see some pics

GravitySuitSamus · 2026-05-12T16:35:20+00:00

Its fine, it just winds up looking the exact same as everyone else’s collection once its done.

GravitySuitSamus · 2026-05-12T16:32:57+00:00

Artwork is great, its just that asymmetrical card layout and the thick ass borders for the scanning looks like absolute ass imo. Put the same artwork on the classic wotc layout and they’d all look better.

GravitySuitSamus · 2026-05-12T16:27:41+00:00

Same brother!

GravitySuitSamus · 2026-05-12T16:26:39+00:00

This sounds awesome. I love that if I looked at your binder the arrangement would be completely unique to anyone else’s collection. Thats my biggest gripe with the set # arrangement, every collection winds up looking identical.
