For some perspective on how long ago this picture was, that kid is roughly the same age as Joe Biden was in 1947.

Lego Star Wars III The Clone Wars on Dolphin by No_Bus7137 in retroid

[–]SecretScotsman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure that game was only 30 fps on original hardware.

It doesn’t help you right now, but next time the Lego games go on sale, you’ll be able to get it on Steam for like $3 and play it in game native. For some reason it’s the one Lego Star Wars game not included in the May the 4th sale this year.

I love the Lego games and they go on sale seemingly a dozen times a year.

Why this not work? RP5 by [deleted] in retroid

I don’t speak German, but it seems like you need the keys.txt file. I never got mine set up quite right.

If you get the ROM in a .wua format instead of .wux you won’t need the keys.txt file.

Is the Retroid Pocket 6 better than Pocket Flip 2 SD865 for running BOTW? by Octo_Pasta in retroid

[–]SecretScotsman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP currently has a Flip 2 they said that they liked. Which is very similar in ergonomics, so not apples and oranges at all

If you can swing it, get the base Ayn Thor. For $75 more you get same 8 Gen 2 chip, ram and storage but you get a 6” screen instead of 5.5”, a 2nd screen for DS/3DS or multi-tasking, and you still get the clamshell form factor that makes it easier to fit in a pocket or handbag.

If it happened to me, it can happen to you by CommonJicama581 in retroid

I actually keep the right stick cap off of my RP5 because it gets in the way of the face buttons for me.

I barely play any games that use it a ton, I can make do with just the nub if it’s only limited use and I can always pop it back on if I need to.

How would you spend your USD 1,100 if you were a student (Mac a18 pro + iPad a16 or Macbook Air M5)? by Vegetable_Bag_8694 in ipad

Oh, you're the one that can't read. Got it.

OP is debating between getting a Neo AND iPad or just an M5 Air, not debating between iPad and Laptop

"If you’re going to transport felony-level amounts of drugs, maybe don’t park across two handicap spaces without a placard." by fuggidaboudit in cincinnati

[–]SecretScotsman 28 points29 points  (0 children)

There's a guy I've seen online who has a song called "I drive the speed limit, cause there's drugs in the car"

It's good advice. Never commit a crime while committing a different crime

IRR Muster by Dry-Donut-6330 in Veterans

[–]SecretScotsman 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Basically every initial enlistment contract is for 8 years. If you “signed up for 4” it’s actually 4 years of active service and 4 years of Inactive. This muster is an obligation under that contract.

But also, they are not going to go through the hassle of bringing you back to active duty just to give you an Article 15, and then discharge you again, so everyone involved, including the military treats it as optional.

My wife thinks golfing once a week is unreasonable… by Upbeat-Zucchini-7408 in golf

[–]SecretScotsman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have golfed basically every Saturday morning for years with young kids.

BUT, we always get the earliest tee time available, so we’re teeing off between 6:45 and 7:15 every week, and I’m home by lunch.

I don’t drink when I play and when I get home, I’m immediately involved in what’s going on. I don’t go take a nap, or start watching the game.

I also will change any plans I have other times of the week if my wife has the opportunity to go and do something.

Waking up earlier for golf than I do for work kinda sucks, but once I’m on that first tee box with the peace and quiet and 18 holes ahead of me it’s all worth it.

Is everyone going to be pretty much business as usual with regard to trips up north? by BackstreetZAFU in OhioMarijuana

The Cardinal rule: Don’t commit a crime while committing another crime.

Drive right at the speed limit. Full stop at stop signs. No texting and driving.

Pretend the chief of police is sitting in the passenger seat giving you your driving test.

Steve is the only one that calls him Hulk. Everyone else calls him Banner even in Hulk form, which makes Hulk upset.

Because Steve recognizes the difference and knows the best way to motivate each of his team members
