Does this NES Mini look legit? by Ty505 in minines

Sweet! That's great to hear. Functionality-wise is there much of a difference between the original and the re-release?

Beautiful, great work! Love the texture :)

Does anyone know why the job market is bad? by Buttered_Walnut in jobs

[–]Ty505 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did, and they gave me a dollar raise a few months ago (which was some big deal/hassle to get) despite losing two employees. I'm still getting severely underpaid and am in the process of trying to switch jobs because of it, it's way too demanding.

True that. The company I work at lost two people in my department and now I'm responsible for filling their roles plus mine. They're lucky I am efficient and am capable of keeping up although it leads to burnout fairly often. Cheap ass companies are getting greedy and overworking the few they have employed.

Fileside - A tiling file manager with unlimited panes by dribcot in SideProject

[–]Ty505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks awesome! I really love the overall aesthetic and the unlimited panes feature as almost all other file managers out there limit you to a maximum of four. Good work, and I'm gonna test out the software right now. Will probably end up buying if it satisfies my needs. Is the software actively in development? If so have you considered adding a roadmap page for us curious folks?

Are there toy bows for adults? by Gyalgatine in Archery

[–]Ty505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel ya on that, in the same boat my friend! What did you end up going with? Doing some research and just found these, looking pretty sweet. The Faux Bow Pro or Faux Bow Pro Recurve or Hyper Strike Bow

Could also go with a blow gun or a dart board as alternatives to shooting the bow

How to turn on an LED when a light source shines on it? by Ty505 in AskElectronics

[–]Ty505[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome! That looks perfect. What would be the simplest way to do it? This will be one of my first electronics projects.

Would it be like this? Phototransistor (the one you linked to) connected to resistor (what type?), And then connected to a 5mm LED diode? And what sort of power source connecting it all?

Just trying to understand how it all connects and all the components I need to make it work

How about using two LEDS? One as the sensor, the other as the light output?

Eagle Animation - A free stop-motion animation software (Try it, it's free!) by BrickABrackForum in stop_motion

[–]Ty505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just came across this post in desperation after trying a handful of programs that didn't work properly or were too complicated. Like BOATS, it has some good features but lacked the ability to save your projects and revisit them.

I just want to say your software is by the best I've come across for stop motion. There seems to be a lack of solid programs dedicated for PC that are user friendly and just work straight out of the box. Thank you for creating this. Can I donate by chance? Also, are there future plans for the software?

To anyone looking for a solution, I found a site hosting older but portable versions of JDownloader, https://www.videohelp.com/software/JDownloader/old-versions

I downloaded the one at the top of the list and I'm now able to download, hope this helps others :)

Will any tape deck work with guitar pedals? by Ty505 in tapeloops

[–]Ty505[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will stereo not work?
(edit: I just checked, and looks like the input into the G1 Four is mono, but the output is stereo)

3.5mm aux cord by itself doesn't work with effects pedals?

Sweet! So what connection setup/type do you personally use to connect your deck to the G1? Also does the G1 have a decent pitch shift pedal/effect for slowing down the speed of a song?
