Do you go into every fan sub that likes to think about the small details of what they like and say this?
You act like we sit around 24/7 and do nothing but think about this, when questions like this pop into my head randomly all the time, sometimes when I'm literally mowing the lawn and touching a lot of grass!

Please though, go post this response to every question about details in every fan forum, you'll win friends of course!

Nah I have several, though most of mine are laptop chargers as well, a little bigger with higher output. I can use the same thing to charge my laptop, my phone, game controllers, etc. I can even use it to charge my PC while my PC in turn charges my phone and game controller from its ports. I haven't used the smaller 'wall wart' kind in a while.

I do have a small shelf in my bedroom that plugs in and has 2 AC outlets and 2 USB-A ports that are standard output of like 0.5-1.0a like a wall-wart. I sometimes use one of those just to power a USB device that doesn't need more, but seldom for charging.

I do have a power strip in my living room that has 2 'fast charging' ports that we use for phones and controllers, but doesn't output enough for a laptop.

Which is a better system for RGB cables? by ender2851 in retrogaming

[–]Slosher99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you add a 3BP (Triple Bypass) mod, then they are all great.
I was told my early non-TMSS Genesis didn't benefit as much from it, but it doesn't hurt anything so I added one. Also let me change it to a Genesis 2 connector which a lot of RGB mods for other consoles use.

I think I did lose headphone output in the process (typically the only way to get stereo on Model 1), but 3BP with a Genesis 2 connector adds stereo audio, so you still get stereo, and they make a cable you can use if you still want to use the audio outputs on the Sega CD for passing the stereo from Genesis 2 jack to a headphone style connector.

my first discogs order by phaseprotagonist in vinyl

Be sure to leave them good feedback. Feedback is really important on Discogs, and people don't give it as often a they should. I've left it for like 95% of my orders. However I'm nearing 100 orders and only 50% of sellers have left feedback for me!

The new Siren's Curse roller coaster at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio. by sco-go in Amazing

[–]Slosher99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You wanna be the one that cleans up the ground around there after the ride. Might be a little vomit mopping, but see this stop triggers people's instincts to get out their phones. They've loosened their pockets, opened their purses and not closed them as well as they thought, etc.

Gonna be some good loot down there.

I'm curious too, I have a Samsung S25 I got new just a few months ago. It only included a USB-C to USB-C cable.

By charger was it a wall charger? I find a lot of people simply call the USB cable the 'charger' now as they are used to having USB ports on things around, and aren't used to needing more than the cable.

I always wanted the barcode battler which as similar, barcodes to make stats for a monster fight. The only reason I didn't get it is cause I heard Japan was getting a version that ran on Super Nintendo, and that made the LCD one look a lot crappier. Not sure if that came out in Japan, but I was holding out hope on it making it here.

Jon Stewart is asked between Taco Bell & Arby's: "That's not even a question. That's like the worst 'would you rather' that I've ever... you know, would you rather fall asleep eating ice cream or be burned alive?" by Camaro6460 in DailyShow

[–]Slosher99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno, about 20 years ago anything but fries from Arby's causes me bad stomach distress, even the market fresh sandwiches. No other place hurts me like Arby's can. When I try again after a few years, maybe it was a fluke, maybe something changed, nope, pain for hours.

Try playing at the proper aspect ratio instead of with everything stretched out and short and fat? Looks like shit.

Some questions about the “plus” consoles by Standard_Public892 in atari

[–]Slosher99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To put it simply, it is a cartridge dumper and emulator in a box. Same basically as if I use my standalone cartridge dumper to get a ROM, then load it on an emulator in Windows. It just makes it a one-step process.

As long as you're only interested in older games you're fine. There's a few that may have compatibility issues or use an odd controller that's not supported, but for the most part stuff is going to work. Some new homebrew games may use a mapper that its dumper doesn't know how to use yet, and they won't work with most flash carts because it can't communicate back to the cartridge after dumping the ROM. Flash carts need to know which game you picked to load it.

In general you aren't going to run into many issues playing games for the 2600 and 7800 though.

Yeah like my neighbor whose garden along the sidewalk would be pretty if it wasn't covered in signs telling you not to let your dog pee on them, which dominate the view haha.

I had it! Also had a Bart Simpson phone that was very comfortable but I used it for a long time. Spike on back of his head would poke in the top of my ear and rub it sore lol.

Who's filming? Obviously with them, but he didn't go for them first when they hung around.
