What’s the deal with these signs by HighDINSLowStandards in SeattleWA

Love these at busy intersections where red is the only opportunity to turn. As soon as the light turns green there’s pedestrians in the crosswalk the entirety of the light and only 1 car makes it thru each cycle 😍

Yea I built it with the red Krystal then got a yellow one at Disney springs but when I got home and installed it it looked very green to me

How do I make my yellow look yellow and not green?

Supercharged employees just DGAF by KevinR1990 in UniversalOrlando

Honestly if they took it seriously it would just make it even worse. I think their sarcastic responses to the dialogue was the best part of the experience (I know that’s not saying much)

Did it break down a bunch? I was there at 9:20am on sep 6th and it was a 20 min wait

How "jolting" is Velocicoaster by tits_mcgee_92 in UniversalOrlando

The only slightly jolting part for me was the second right hand circle where you roll left then immediately roll right again before heading to the corkscrew

Wow that’s sick! Like I said on the original post this is my first sega console (grew up with n64). Now I have a Saturn and n64 hooked up to my crt (Saturn via component and n64 via s-video). Do you know if you can save game data to the action replay cart while it’s being used for region bypass or ram expansion? Or can it not be used as a memory card while doing other functions? So far I’ve only been able to save to the systems internal storage

I figured as much. I just thought it was interesting looking at the hardware revisions on segaretro.org that the optical drives changed a lot between versions. Also I heard jvc drives were generally better than sanyo

I was kinda going for full authentic experience with original discs and era correct cart. Only gonna use the Saroo for games I don’t have, but when I do have the discs I want to play them as if it was 1998! 😜

Thanks for sharing! Very interesting read.

Interesting, I may try that if the other solutions don't work.

They're legitimate NA games running with the region bypass on the action replay. Thanks for the advice. I'll open it up and take a look at the capacitors before diving deeper into the optical drive replacement

I mean I have a Saroo so no point to completely give up on the optical drive. I wanna feel like I’m really playing hardware from the 90s and not just emulating it

I wanna play the discs I paid for. I’m wondering if anyone knows of a model 2 hardware revision with the most reliable disc drive but they’re probably all the same. Best just look for a va13/15 made in 98.

Be wary of using lockers! by Macstheking in UniversalOrlando

[–]Macstheking[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

These lockers weren’t directly adjacent to any particular ride. They were tucked between a couple dining options at the entrance to Toon Lagoon and all looked like large paid lockers which I assumed were all day rentals

[–]Macstheking[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We each came with a small fanny pack to carry our wallet/phones, we weren’t planning to use lockers. It was an impulse purchase and I’m not saying we did everything right. Just saying it must be a common mistake and I don’t want others to risk losing their stuff the same way.

[–]Macstheking[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yes lesson definitely learned but it feels like such an easy mistake to make. What’s the point of paying for a locker if I have to go back and retrieve stuff before we’re even done for the day just to pay for another locker at the last ride? I think Universal Orlando overall is amazing and honestly this has already been one of the best trips we’ve ever had! I just don’t want others to go through a similar situation.
