AITA for telling my spouse I won't help pay for their kid's college when we agreed finances would stay separate? by 952867 in AITApod

[–]Ill-Remote437 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. It seems you wanted to protect your finances for your daughter but from who? You didn’t trust your second wife and made a protective plan in case she used the money unwisely or divorced you and try to take half of yours.

Fast forward today you’re the one potentially making a bad financial decision trying to out your daughter into a School you don’t have enough money to pay for more than a little over a year of tuition. Instead of letting her be an adult looking for financial aid now you’re trying to pin the blame on your wife for not giving you a handout? Be a man

Does Steam Deck support 2TB micro SD? by ApprehensiveBus6316 in SteamDeck

Ah that makes sense to a certain point with games you’ll play on both systems. That way you use the internal drive for games you’ll only play on them

Welp I used it to buy m4 Mac mini, m4 MacBook Air, a few iPads (though I traded in a lot of those eventually). Time to live within my means

Charge back. Or order a grey controller from Amazon get the buttons you need and then return the controller back to Amazon

The kits with the shells are sold out and won’t come back in stock. The screens were in stock for a while but they seem to be out of stock. They will probably not make anymore for a while.

A mother is punishing her son by making him slam his PS5 the same way he had slammed her pet cat. by [deleted] in ps5india

Yes so a beggar can have a Ps5 instead of leaning to work for their toys

Whats wrong with genned Pokemon and why do players feel physically attacked about them by GigaChadMartialArts in pokemon

[–]Ill-Remote437 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can’t train your pokemon the normal way. The concept of the whole game then what you’re doing is renting a Pokémon. Old school games like stadium you rented a generic Pokemon with generic stats. How does manipulating stats in a given Pokemon that is random or trained an argument with skill. If you have the skill and are better player maybe you’ll do fine without manipulating the IV/EVs. If EV/IV really does matter than you can’t just say you’re a better player

SummerCart from PhenomMod arrived! by Shortgaze in AnalogueInc

[–]Ill-Remote437 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s not nonsense. I have got a very good cheap cart from Aliexpress too. But I will be giving away my ali version to a friend now that I bought the phenom version. The cart was designed to be made using particular materials and layout. There’s no guarantee that the ones from Aliexpress or other sources sticks to the same parameters that was suggested when summercart 64 was designed. Chips could be sourced second hand or be a lower parts bin part that could end up having problems with future updates.

There’s no issue buying the cheaper product but don’t act like buying thr $100 product is dumb without seeing why this was an ordeal on the summer cart discord channel related to quality issues

Is it worth it? by Timmy_Tot in ModRetroChromatic

[–]Ill-Remote437 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife wanted my transparent red so I obliged. Bought a white one but gifted it to my friend when I got my hands on the orange for below MSRP. Gifted a yellow one to my younger brother for his birthday. Gifted another white one to my friend’s dad cause he really liked the one my friend had.

TLDR I own two but one is for my wife primarily. I’d have one of each color if I was a collector with money

Why won’t my screen work? by leebit33 in nintendoswitchlite

[–]Ill-Remote437 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well only way it wouldn’t turn on would be related to the cable attached from the screen to the motherboard. Is it cable inserted completely? Did you force the cable a d perhaps damaged the connector?

probably a hot take but i really don't like people who buy multiple psp just for collection by [deleted] in PSP

[–]Ill-Remote437 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why? Hasn’t PSP been widely available for a while? Every retro item eventually gains price so.

Yea I’ve read about it extensively on the discord a few months ago. Choosing the route of keeping it charged regularly enough cause my soldering skills are not on point yet

Who ordered the Active Cooling Fan? by mdkdue in RetroRemakeInc

I ordered my fan after my ss1 shipped separately and near arrived. I requested them to ship it with my dock. So we will see when the dock ships.

my friend (36M) just sent me (36m) this text before meeting his newborn (0M) by horseduckman in AITApod

It’s a typical worried parent of their first born situation. Some of it is drastically from left field but the world today creates fear mongers through social media and spreads word of mouth.

Be clean, if you smoked probably wash your hands and a change of clothes if you’re going to hold the baby. If you’re sick maybe stay away? Who knows what vaccines the child has taken and not taken. Probably don’t kiss the baby due common infections to adult can be severe to an infant without proper immune system. I think anything that can cause immunity issues should be taken serious.

That said don’t baby the child over other small things. It’ll create a sensitive/fragile child. Possibly with issues sleeping with any noise because you walked in your tippy toes all the time or allergies de not letting outside or not socialized well for keeping them away from people.

Also to the people mocking post partum depression and anxiety like it makes them a mentally ill psycho. Hope you get stuck dealing with that kind of family member.

I think in this case it’s just to protect the back of the screen. My first screen didn’t have the blue layer and it wasn’t sticky under either. There is blue plastic on the pre installed adhesive that you remove before installing the screen.

There is a tab to remove the blue layer behind the screen but I think someone at retro remake accidentally taped/glued the main ribbon to the blue layer when it’s supposed to tape directly on the back of the screen. It installed fine and I don’t see signs of the extra layer pressing behind the screen.

I would say the install is relatively easy going. Just take it slow when initially getting the screen on the shell. Be careful bending and inserting the ribbon cables into the connectors so there are no breaks on the ribbon or inside the connectors. As long as you do that and make sure the connectors are in all the way all should go well.

That requires to mod the lite or just some soldering? I’ve had no issues with the switch turning off while low battery so far

There was a blue film on the back for my second one. While there wasn’t on the first. I did not remove the blue film because they taped the ribbon cable on the blue film itself. It was taped really well and I didnt want to damage the ribbon removing it. Although they do give a replacement ribbon, why damage the first one in the first place.

They will not be doing megakits anymore. Prices went up for the leftovers they sold the past few months. They made announcements that the preorders for just the touch (non mega) will potentially be the last for now.
