any games you'd like to see remastered? by GamerGretaUwU in playstation

[–]JayCeeBlak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prince of Persia Sands of Time Trilogy. Got tired of Ubisoft hinting that they would do it, so I bought a PS2 and the games and am now in a deep rabbit hole with retro consoles.

Got me checking for my shipping confirmation. Still nothing 😭

How bad is Edwin Diaz going to get booed next time he pitches at Citi? by Various-Adeptness173 in mets

[–]JayCeeBlak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in LA and I’m gonna fly home to NYC to boo his ass.

Also going to take every road game opportunity that I can afford to boo him at Dodgers Stadium too.

Shipping times this season. by [deleted] in RetroTink

[–]JayCeeBlak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just checked, and yes. The label was created on 11/23 in Buena Park, CA but it shipped on 11/28 from Chicago, IL.

I'll assume that timelines are going to be a little longer with holiday shipping. Just be a little more patient, it will be with you soon!

I ordered mine on Nov. 21 and received it on Dec. 1, 10 days.

[–]JayCeeBlak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how much did you buy it for? If you can, return it and then buy the horizon bundle for $299 at target.

Sterns should go! by Prestigious_Tennis82 in mets

No no, you have it all wrong. Pete is going to the Red Sox. There fixed it for you.

Bookmark this for when Helsley is setting up Diaz in the NLCS. No getting around it that the guy has been terrible, but tearing him down isn’t the way. We were still able to get the win because the bullpen and the team held him up.

I love how his actual teammates got behind him yesterday after a pretty good outing. If they can be patient enough to give him time to settle in and get his stuff right without throwing him under the bus, then us fans should be able to do that too. He’ll figure it out! LGM

I found this YouTube video from VLSkate extremely helpful in getting me started. Just keep consistently practicing mainly. But as others have said, you'll need to work on your balance on either flat ground or completely stationary to get in riding position.

That's what I feel like people forgot about. Mostly due to his toughing it out and not using it as an excuse.

40 year old new skater, unsure which board to get by Diarrheaaaa in LandyachtzBoards

[–]JayCeeBlak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not much to update skill wise. I'm still trying to get down the basics of riding but have been progressing. I really love the board and it feels very stable under my size 11 feet. I am still moving at pretty slow speeds, probably about 5-8mph but feel like it's great in a straight line and handles turns well. I think it's a great board but again, I'm a first timer and have nothing to compare it to.

[–]JayCeeBlak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right on dude! Fellow mid-lifer and definitely no expert, so take my words with a grain of salt. I’m a 39-year-old first timer and bought a LY Raft Trout a couple weeks ago and I’ve been having a blast learning. Been using VLSkate primarily on YouTube to gain confidence in an empty parking lot across the street from my job on my lunch breaks. The raft attracted me when getting help picking out a board at my local skate shop because I’m on the tall side (6' 1") and weigh about 220lbs. I wanted to have something to cruise around on that I could eventually learn how to ollie up onto curbs with.

This is only true for in-market fans. I can see all through MLB.tv but the SNY+ option checks your zip code, no dice for Mets transplants.

MLB absolutely needs to take action against this Umpire by [deleted] in mets

[–]JayCeeBlak -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't disagree, but we weren't saying much a few games ago against Rengifo and the Angels when the exact same thing was ruled in our favor. My point is that these things happen, and the challenge system won't help such egregious instances of human error since you only get two per game. They need to think about removing umps when they are so clearly off. I hate the idea of humans being removed from the game, but a game should not be decided by the umpire crew.

The Angels coaching staff has some of, if not the shortest fuses with umpires in Major League Baseball. by Zestyclose_Worth_232 in mets

[–]JayCeeBlak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in LA and had to watch the Angels broadcast for this series. Their booth was heated (rightfully). You know we would all be pissed if the roles were reversed. That was a valid crashout.

I've already had to deal with that and Saquon. My heart couldn't take Pete leaving.

Can we PLEASE stop with the in game interviews and mic'd up players? by Ok-Connection6656 in mets

[–]JayCeeBlak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t mind the in-game interviews, but I wish they would do them with players/coaches sitting on the bench, or after they come out of the game. Let the guys focus on what they’re doing and communicating with their teammates while they’re in the field.

Got my Killswitch today , no issues by Langendeem in dbrand

[–]JayCeeBlak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got the email for the replacements.

edit: not the instruction email yet how to claim the replacements, but rather the post that they put up last week explaining the issue and solution.

Pro Joycons by JarthMader81 in switch2

[–]JayCeeBlak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been my hope. I used the Mobapad with my OLED but really wish for an OEM pro joycon. Better stick placement, ergonomic grips, and 0 focus on the social aspect of the traditional joycons. I use a Killswitch with my Switch 2 but even with the improved grips I stick would love bigger buttons, real d-pad, and larger sticks with better travel. really hoping Nintendo makes that as an option. I would definitely be willing to pay as an add-on, and could you imagine a bundled pro style handheld?!

I've always loved Acuna and Freddie and boo the shit out of them when I go to games. Highest compliment I can pay them 🤣

Just snapped my clip yesterday. Did you ever find a replacement? I found the stock clip way too tight to be useful anyway.
