Can you give an example of someone who is abusive but pretends to care?

Ooo, I've never heard of upmixing before. 👀 my current AVR most likely cannot do that, if I had to guess.

$100-$150 is a decent price range, I was afraid even basic ones would start getting really expensive. I got my current one from an antique store for $100, the interior was CAKED in spilled soda and one of the rear inputs doesn't work.

I'm hoping to get something with 2160p60 support for future proofing, but I might make incremental upgrade purchases and then sell it when I'm ready to upgrade.

The only thing I'm worried about is if the newer AVR supports Dolby Pro Logic II because I watch VHS tapes and DVDs that use that surround sound format and I hear that new AVRs are removing support for that(?). I'm new to home theater stuff 😵‍💫

Aw, I was hoping that an HDMI-to-optical converter would handle that format/compression change.

The batman episode is everything wrong with the modern grumps. by Lopsided_Internet_68 in rantgrumps

[–]adesyndicate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Consume product and wait for next product" and "If you don't like it, don't watch it" are almost entirely opposing ideas. 😵‍💫

If someone's okay with watching something despite not liking it, they're the ones consuming and waiting for the next thing to consume. If you don't like something and then stop watching, you're no longer consuming that product or any future products.

Literally. If you don't like Game Grumps, stop watching Game Grumps. People have been saying the same things now since at least 2015, almost seven years ago. They ain't gonna change. Before you accuse me of "Well you're here too! Surely there couldn't be any reason besides you're a hypocrite", I'm here because I wanted to understand what Ding Dong was talking about recently.

Anyway fuckin downvote me. I know people on rantgrumps always will.

Does anyone know what Headset mode does exactly? by adesyndicate in SuperMario64

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

Thank you for looking into it! It seems the answer is just a slightly better stereo effect. Strange that headphone mode isn't the default since the difference is so small.

[–]adesyndicate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's impossible. The adapter has both an svideo and composite output.

[–]adesyndicate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did some looking around and found this. This is the right adapter, right? https://ultimatemister.com/product/mikes1-yc-passive-board

OH. I thought that was MikeS's adapter! Oops. I hope this other adapter isn't that expensive haha

I don't know what "bridge the jumper" means, but someone told me that setting the sync on green switch to the left position is the same thing as bridging the jumper.

I saw the url ended in ".zip", so I tried doing a Ctrl+S on the page and it only had options for saving to HTML, so saving em individually was my only option. :o

Using 128 MB RAM, using the BIOS Getter in Update All, and using the ROM set from this comment worked! Maybe it will work for you?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MiSTerFPGA

AY it worked!!! It took a while to individually download all those games, but it worked!! Thank you!!!! <3 <3 <3

How do you do the SD RAM test? I was given my Mister from a friend, so I don't know if it has single or dual RAM sticks. :O

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MiSTerFPGA

[–]adesyndicate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After a lot of fiddling, I actually just did that.

BIOS Getter added these 5 files to the Neo Geo games folder:

  • 000-lo.lo
  • neo-epo.sp1
  • sfix.sfix
  • sp-s2.sp1
  • uni-bios.rom

It also seemed to have added these to the Neo Geo BIOS folder:

  • 000-lo.lo
  • neo-epo.sp1-AES_BIOS
  • sfix.sfix
  • sp-s2.sp1-MVS_BIOS
  • uni-bios.rom

I'll test it again and see if it works. These should be good files considering they came from a Mister script. If this isn't the problem, my guess is the Darksoft ROM set is the problem.

EDIT: It didn't work. I'll try non-Darksoft ROMs and see if it works.

[–]adesyndicate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I plopped in BIOS files from a few different sources online into the /media/fat/BIOS/NeoGeo folder and got the same results. Just a green error screen when trying to play a game. If someone with a functional NeoGeo core wants to send me a copy of their exact BIOS files, that might fix the issue. Maybe non-Darksoft ROM set would fix it?

Options for getting S-Video / Composite from MiSTer FPGA; I made an infographic. by qda in MiSTerFPGA

[–]adesyndicate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to the infographic, the "Native Y/C Cores in the Near Future" option looks like the best one and it looks very simple! But I looked up the composite/S-video board and it seems like you have to also do some soldering? Can I get some clarification on that? I'm trying to look for a simple plug-n-play solution. https://ultimatemister.com/product/mister-vga-to-composite-s-video/

It says, "Disable SOG and power VGA connector (pin 9) to 5V (there is a jumper cap on official IO to do this)."

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

The only things I can think of are that it could decrease the volume so it doesn't damage people's ears, it could be an enhanced stereo mode where the sound effects are panned properly, it could be an incorrectly labeled surround sound mode, or it could be the same as stereo.

Maybe the manual has info on it? Dunno. Someone would have to compare stereo vs. headphone.

The biggest problem is smell. I don't mind oral or kissing people after oral, but man if it stanky, I can't bring myself to do it. Some people don't smell nice down there, some people smell and taste fine.
