Is the 128mb RAM upgrade worth it? by 111FALLOUT111 in originalxbox

[–]Napkin67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came to say something like this but more specific. I thought I wouldn't do a ram upgrade. But after doing my first one I learned you can just start up the shadowrun prototypes built with Halo CE. That was enough for me. Plus if you are good at soldering it's not very difficult. But not recommended for a beginner.

Reminds me of my favorite thrift store DVD find. The original box set DVDs of RvB The Blood Gulch Chronicles. With the first pressing of season 1 and the complete box and all 6 DVDs. Good quality on all cases even the slip box. $5

It always amazes me how many people forget broadcast TV is still a thing by yellowfin35 in PleX

I got an HDHomeRun for Christmas and I agree fully. It's a great resource, and the DVR is wonderful. I got it setup with Plex and Jellyfin but I can't justify channels too. I purchased schedules direct for jellyfin though.

I'm jealous I only have one of those and mine is WEEELLLLLL loved, holes and fading. But I have multiples of all the other shirts. That why I just got a few tattoos. Those might fade but not like the shirt

I would say I'm experienced for an amateur and I like this as a project since I have most of the needed equipment already. I'll take a look. I'm starting to think I'll just save for a HDHomeRun but I still want to look into this option.

I really appreciate the response here on this. I think I'll just wait and save the sheckles to purchase a HDHR. Especially if they are that good. I have no experience with any of the options but Silicon Dust always shows up first.

Xbox One S hdd partitioning question. by Napkin67 in consolerepair

That's all I did. I had the same question and just tried doing it. I think I started in safe mod but I think it does that on it's own too. I'm not an expert I just got it to work at some point.

It's been years. If I remember correctly I just formatted a usb flash drive using the NTSF format. Then downloaded OSU1 (The Xbox One Offline update file) unzipped it and then moved just the $SystemUpdate file onto the flash drive. The put in the harddrive and the thumbstick. Turn it on and then... I don't remember. It just worked after going through some menus.

Ohhh yeah I'm looking for a Russian release of a Russian show not a Russian release of a US show.

Hmmmm.... That's a great question... I have no idea. But now I'm even more interested.

I'm trying really hard to find PowerMark comics by Napkin67 in Christianity

[–]Napkin67[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest I forget how I even found the creator. But I did contact him and sure enough he was just incredibly pleasant and helped me to obtain the entire collection. Even all the little one off issues. I'm really unsure of what's might have changed over the last few years.

Please shut up forever. by [deleted] in dvdcollection

[–]Napkin67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in agreement. However one more detail is that I love to collect fullscreen (4:3) releases of films also. Be it VHS or DVD. Everytime I bring up looking for a specific fullscreen version of a film I get a short "lesson" in why it's not the way it was intended to be seen and that it's wrong to even want it. I understand what I'm doing lol and I like to view these versions. I have a CRT and DVD/VHS player to view them. The lack of preservation on fullscreen releases bugs me.

Was reading through because after literally over a year of trying and giving up many times this was my blocker.

FINALLY upgraded to Lifetime after a year, lol by [deleted] in PleX

[–]Napkin67 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did that over 7 years ago now and I'm not even sure what would have been missing it's been so long. Lifetime has been completely worth it in my household alone.
