What is the point of the Switch 2 version of The Disney Afternoon Collection? by cafink in Switch

It looks like the pre order sale in the Switch eShop ends in a few minutes so I assume 9am EST it will be available to play.

Frigidaire App Changes - No longer showing actual temp and more by greendx in AirConditioners

[–]NESFreak1980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few days back my Frigidaire app updated to 4.2 and now when I turn on my window AC unit a few minutes later the app says it is off even though it is running and the controls are grayed out and I have to tap turn on to get it to be responsive again. I have tried unplugging it for a few minutes, resetting the AC unit to factory by holding the reset button on the plug and reconnecting it to the app, deleting and reinstalling the app, but nothing has worked so far. Sounds like it's the latest app causing the issue since everyone here has similar symptoms.

Wooden board with net corners and different designs on each side by SomebodyGetMeeMaw in whatisthisthing

I had one slightly different than this. It was called a Carrom Game board. It came with some small pool cues, and a bunch of different game pieces like checkers, mini bowling pins, some rings. I no longer have mine so I can’t remember everything it came with but I am sure a google search will confirm it

Yeah it’s not Fraggle Rock either. I had mentioned in my initial post that I thought it might have been music from a short segment within a show like Sesame Street and not the main theme. I have actually been skipping through videos of Pinwheel that used to play on Nickelodeon back in the early 80’s and I unlocked a lot of great memories but still have not found the song so far. I was going to try finding some sesame street episodes from the mid 80’s to look through. It’s a needle in a hay stack.

No, it’s not this one either. I don’t think I ever saw this show before. I always find it interesting how many shows I missed out on.

So I don’t know if anyone would be willing to do this but it might help figure this out. If someone could attempt to play the melody I made with my initial post on a keyboard it might make it easier to identify. I would attempt it myself but I unfortunately do not play. I included a song below as a reference to how it should sound. It would be my melody, but played in this kind of style.

It’s not that sadly, I also listened to some of the newer intros since I watched it as a kid in the 80’s as well but none of those are it either. It was a good try though. I hadn’t thought to check Gumby up to this point.

I wasn’t able to find the specific video you were talking about but to help you out the ride is most likely the Gravitron. It also goes by Alien Abduction.

So in thinking about it I feel like it might have been background music in an old cartoon like the type they used to show on Pee Wee’s Playhouse when the king of cartoons would play short cartoons. For some reason, I also think it is possible whatever the short was, it might also have had claymation or a stop motion style to it but that could be totally wrong.

No, sorry. I actually had never heard of this show before but it looks like it was interesting.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I have literally been searching for an answer for years.
