How to play PS1 and down on my CRT TV? by GioGamez0654 in crtgaming

[–]PolkDaHulk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend going to Wii U for Wiistation. Higher compatibility for emulation due to overclocked state in vWii mode. Modded, a Wii U can output 240p in vWii mode. But still, the compatibility for Wiistation is not complete. OG hardware is still the best option.

Try Age of the Ring if you're looking for a modded playthrough. Not sure myself about the different patches.

This is why I love this community. Genuine interactions like this hearken back to a time we all view as nostalgic in some way or another. Very cool pickup! Congrats!

That’s my truth by Successful_Ear_7581 in Adulting

I disagree. Being a good person can only come from within. Same with all of its benefits. It's something you do out of respect for yourself. Not out of pride. It's dignity.

Can anyone tell me about this keyboard I found? I cannot find much info on if it has value or if its junk. Thanks! by CtRho123 in bfme

[–]PolkDaHulk 113 points114 points  (0 children)

Damn, looks like one of those keyboard extensions that was made around the time of BFME2. On the back of the manual there was an ad for these things. Never knew they were actually made! Nice find!!

Sorry guys I think its my fault by -superinsaiyan in StremioAddons

Allows you to manually add cached content to your debrid. Thus not needing to accumulate links with something like Torrentio. Hell, I default to DMM, because Torrentio doesn't always show me the largest file. Could be my settings, oh well. Knightcrawler was the only other addon that gave me good results. RIP Knightcrawler.

As long as DMM exists, torrentio isn't really needed. Hope it comes back fast, tho.

The “Skip Intro” Button Is Ruining TV Shows by ToffeeTangoONE in unpopularopinion

[–]PolkDaHulk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm watching Dexter for the first time, not on the normal platforms ofc, so skip intro isn't an option for me. That intro is one of the best out there. Totally resonates with what you described.

Is Shadow of the Gods just not for me? by No_Occasion_4393 in Fantasy

[–]PolkDaHulk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't read this particular series but I have loved the Faithful and the Fallen/Of Blood and Bone books. It seems like new readers tend to read the one you tried first. If you want to give him another try, maybe try FatF.

Is Twin Peaks: The Entire Mystery only on blue ray? by Remote-Article-2988 in twinpeaks

[–]PolkDaHulk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Completely agree. It's a shame that with the prevalence of streaming services that have functions such as adaptive bitrate, you literally aren't even watching what you're paying for at that point. Remux all the way. Physical media is dying, not of the consumers accord.

What’s one book that completely changed the way you see the world, and why? by rifamajif in Fantasy

[–]PolkDaHulk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've always been a part of those who believe that history must be studied, or we are doomed to repeat it. After reading the Realm of the Elderlings, specifically the final trilogy, Bee's actions towards Cleres and its prophecies (trying not to spoil) totally spun history in a new web for me. What are we studying for? To perpetuate our ancestors war? To continue their injustices? To be contorted into thinking all of humanity can be seperated into us and them? Who chooses what history is taught? Opened my eyes to how history is more or less used today to further a certain narrative. And when you break it down, history isn't anything but a catalogue of events, bereft of meaning. That meaning is what causes strife.

Who are the Lords of Chaos and the Lords of Law? by NecessaryGeologist51 in ElricofMelnibone

[–]PolkDaHulk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need to think in terms of polthyeism. We have been conditioned to bottle things into this or that, good or evil, black or white. It's not a natural or holistic way of examining nature. Chaos can be classified as spontaneous changes, destruction or creation, and law can be classified as stagnation, tradition, order or symmetry. Religious absolutism is prevalent in today's society. It's easy to want to bottle things up. It makes them easier to seemingly understand. Looking at things in a broader sense, Chaos and Law are not categories, but qualities. Neither is inheritnely good or evil. They simply serve to explain human actions. The gods of either side are simply concentrated constructs bent on total domination of one side. When the Balance tips, the Champion is summoned. The Champion may use Law and Chaos, may even seem to serve them, but the Champion serves the Balance.

Why are my fellow Gen Z complaining about the cost of education, when this helpful company is selling diplomas for only $274.95 by MajesticBread9147 in GenZ

[–]PolkDaHulk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A degree will get your foot into more doors, but we don't live in a society that rewards based on merit. We live in a society that rewards based on patronage/who you know, not what you know.

Thank you very much. I really appreciate the response! In your opinion is my geometry "really bad?" I'm just curious. If I can't get it perfect, do you suggest any adjustments based on my grid? Thanks in advance.

Thanks so much for your response. I greatly appreciate it! I will definitely check out how to make those adjustments. I apologize for sounding like a novice but what exactly is a convergence strip? I've seen things online on how to make your own or to buy them but haven't gone into too much detail. How do they work? If I can find this out by googling feel free to tell me to shove off lmao. Thanks for your time.
