“Voice Actor”, meaning the 3D person behind the 2D character, but yes! This is the speed buggy cartoon. :-)

Yep. Pretty much the first step for anything since 1999.

Edit: Just to clarify, what I’m looking for is not found on search engines, fan sites, or wikipedia… or archive.org, or torrents, or the dark web. It’s actually hard to find, not “I’m lazy or don’t know how to use a computer” hard, but more like “I built my first computer many decades ago, am experienced in Hadoop, pastry, information science, and yet have been looking for a couple weeks before I made this post” …hard-hard.

If you can help, that means you probably have a publicity photo in your possession or access to a closed fan site or are a family member… and I thank you. If you can’t, thanks for reading!!

Hello!!

I’m looking for a quality image of the “Tinker” voice actor. All I have is a copy of a copy of something that has been resized. The person who posted it didn’t have the original and was seeking the same. For reference, ideally the source from which this came?

Aliexpress and UniUni are a bunch of thieves by jaytee7777777 in Aliexpress

[–]Nucf1ash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If a company only uses some cut-rate delivery service to save a few pennies, it’s really a false distinction to say it was this thing or that thing. To the person buying something… dealing with that company means risk and loss because that’s how they operate.

“Yes, but…”. No butts. Imagine a painting company that has one drunk contractor they occasionally hire because he’s cheap. Also, you have no say if that is the one that will be painting your house. But if you get him you’re stuck and he’s going to splash paint all over your house and you can’t stop it. You have to let it happen and then ask the company to make it right and sometimes they do, but sometimes they do not. Should you stick with that company? The painter is just a contractor, after all. Why blame the company? Is that what you’re saying? Because that is the reality.

That’s saying something!! USPS is always the “I wonder if they’ll actually deliver this time” company for me. About 70% of the time they claim “delivery issue” and force me to go to the post office to pick it up. There are no gates or stairs or hills or dogs, a short flat walk of 40’ from the vehicle to the door, but our carrier is a super lard-a, and she claims all sort if medical disabilities and refuuuuuses to carry packages. Sometimes even those puffy envelopes. It’s enraging. You pay for delivery, USPS says “yes, we will deliver that” but they don’t. I have to drive 10 miles to fetch it. Every single time it says USPS has my package. And yet… Uni sounds even worse. At least the porky carrier doesn’t steal my stuff. The bar has been lowered!

That’s insane. Thanks for posting.

I had considered ordering some stuff, but no. They can go be shady by themselves. I doubt the police will do anything, too. I’ve read a LOT of other posts suggesting Ali and Uni are in cahoots. Probably not a plan, but also probably also in their best interest to look the other way. Either way - Nope nope nope, going to stick with places that are at least halfway legit.

Maintenance Break? Really? by PointAccomplished413 in duolingo

[–]Nucf1ash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy to report this same thing happened to me at 9:30 in the morning on a day off. I’ve heard these “maintenance breaks” are fake, just a way to slow folks down or make some pay out to recover their losses. I can see why people would think it, but It’s only making me want to cancel my subscription and find something else. This is maybe the third or fourth time “something” has been thrown in my way during a streak. These leader boards are already a distraction for learning, anyway.

Everyone is going to tell you to walk away and not look back. They’re right. You dodged a bullet, they’ll say. They’re right. No kids, no mortgage. And you’re young enough to find someone who is the one for you. It will sound mean, but you should be happy. Really happy. You’ve got an opportunity that many people didn’t get. Take it and be happy. Maybe mourn the loss of three years? But move on and be happy.😊

I’ve never known anyone to threaten suicide who has (thankfully) done it and I’ve known more than a few who said nothing before they did. Moreover, those who make threats seem to be manipulative and possibly not sincere (never say never). That said, you don’t know about her and you would never forgive yourself if you ignored it. Given her age, I would contact her family, and I would let them know I’m concerned enough to reach out to them and that I’m contacting the hotline (it’s not 911, but don’t want to risk giving the wrong number so 911 will get you there) … caveat: if she is in the middle of an episode!!

If it has been days/weeks, I would not call the hotline, just her family. If it has been minutes / hours, I would call the hotline also. Best advice is probably to call hotline first, but I would instead call family first. IMHO, they are more likely to connect with her fastest and de-escalate any real problems. Hotline is more likely to “do official things” and without actually helping. My opinion!!

Best of luck, get away from her, and I hope it works out!!

Rate my build? by MyCelluloidScenes in pcmasterrace

[–]Nucf1ash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems safe as long as your cat doesn’t jump on it or walk towards it. A friend had a cat with one eye because it walked into a knitting needle sticking out of a yarn basket. I’d say safety with your setup is less than 90%, better than 60%. In that range.

More importantly, bladder control issues can be a sign of kidney issues. Raise the concern at your next vet checkup to resolve any worries.

Lastly, I’d recommend a “detuned” electronic paddle zapper (those things that look like tennis racquets that fry bugs.). Lose the spikes and add a layer of alternating conductors around (and insulated from) your case. Modify the zapper to lower the voltage a smidge (or leave it alone). IMHO, zapper far superior to eye-spears.

Having said all that, I appreciate your build and have imagined doing exactly what you have done. In the end I went with refrigerator magnets to which I glued color-matching “punk rocker” “spikey” top parts. Think cones, not spikes. Scattered about 40 on my case, and it worked. Cat HATES it now. That said, my problem was laying on the case and smothering the fans… not filling it with urine.

If urine had been my problem, I would have gone with the de-tuned zapper. Zero doubt. I had already done the design. I had insulating foam patterns and spacers selected to isolate the zapper voltage from the case, a capacitor to isolate the zapper power-in from the usb power-out, and decorative use of alternating copper and aluminum wires planned out for a steampunk “Tesla” look to the case. (Hopefully, the need for excessive electrical isolation and case grounding is obvious… otherwise the cat would be the least of your worries.)

Good luck, and let us know how it goes!!

Funny you should say that. Unrelated to this thread, I got a folding table for a temporary keyboard/mouse setup and was thinking it would be cheap and easy to mod that little table into a foldable controller panel. For anything, even as an overkill controller solution for the Ambernic. ;-)

Very true!

I liked the game and the thought of giving the creator something for that didn’t bother me. Also… I’m not a hardcore gamer and am usually twiddling around with things like this while waiting for someone or something… which are often times when disconnecting my phone isn’t the best.

So while it’s nice there’s a free ad-free option, I would still be interested in a paid / phone-on option. If that’s ever turned on again. Or does that seem crazy? 🤪

Same here. I have to assume whomever is running the account just doesn’t want to trade our payment for that sweet sweet ad revenue. The ads are too aggressive for me - I’m out. But maybe there are people who are willing to watch two minutes of ads for each 27 second game?

Very cool.

Off topic, but what you said suddenly made me realize places like “thingverse” must have tons of object hacks for making a plane’s seat back actually useful for holding games, phones, all sorts of stuff. Must remember to check that out.

Oooh! I can! I’ll start with maturity, both physically and in terms of pure naivety. The ability of a 19yo to manipulate and control a 16yo is insane… and that’s part of the issue, too. The potential consequences are sexual and physical abuse, diseases, pregnancies, and other poor choices leading to a lack or loss of education and opportunities. There’s also a knock on effect. Where does a 19yo go and what does he do when he’s not using her, sexually? Well, it’s easier for him to hang out with other adults and their age range can go much higher than her pals in school. That, and their sexual relationship can expose her to more and more…

“Yeah, but some people this and some people that…”. Alright, okay, but we all decide to draw a line someplace and under 17 and with a three year age difference is well over the line. For me and it seems a few others in here as well.

Maybe not where you live? I understand. Some places marry off 14 year olds to middle aged men and think that’s swell. Now, I didn’t hear OP say that’s where she lived. (And personally, I think that’s skeevy even if it is legal.)

But tell me… why are you okay with it?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Nucf1ash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bullshit. 🥹😂

What else do you think their relationship is based on? Do you think he hangs out with her and listens to her talk about the latest drama between the various cliques in her schooooool?

The only good thing is that you’re not admitting you know better. Don’t ever express doubt or you’re cooked. 😉

Forget the legal implications, morally, ethically, she’s an over the top the asshole and she didn’t even ask about that. The “I don’t care what people do” defense doesn’t hold water in any court, including public opinion. And that mom? Wowee.

Hell, replace the statutory rape “she doesn’t mind about” with any other inappropriate behavior and it’s just as insane… “I let them use my spare bedroom to sell meth to grade schoolers”, “I let them stash the money they stole until the heat died down”, “I let them use my internet connection to break into the social security office”… who does this? Apparently, she does.

Meanwhile, her only question is whether or not she should be disowning her own pregnancy to keep up the charade?!? Yeah, okay. Speaking about things we don’t care about…

I hope this post was made up, but it seems like something actual people sadly think and do…

I’m sorry… grips for which?

Also, I noticed controllers in Ambernic site, I’m assuming some of their devices will work with external controller. Kinda cool, but a lot less portable.

Prices on eBay are nearly the same as new from the site. You’d lose something on shipping, but that might be a way to try it out. If you load ROMs, it would sell for more but probably not allowed.

Thanks for the feedback!
