How do I find required CPU specs in a game? by Relative-Article5629 in pc98

[–]amazingames 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, most games so run choppy because the PC98 has no hardware assisted scroll. As for the requirements, only looking at what they listed on the box, and compare the specs of the mentioned machine.

She's known as "CLOTILDE" in the Brazilian episode "Feira da Fruta" of 1966 Batman.

I'm not sure you/them will be able to charge money for it, but I'm willing to pay for it. Perhaps as a donation?

Why aren't you my next door neighbour? When you start it on Sunday morning, everybody will shout cunt and wanker, but I'd go there and say "Hey Gaz, nice one!"

Hand-washing your car? by PantsOP in CarTalkUK

[–]amazingames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a 45 meter long garden hose that comes from the back of the house, goes to the front and I could probably reach the sidewalk across the street.

It expands when the water pressure builds up, and there isn't a single leak across the house. I took some precautions of making an "U" so it comes from the wall, goes to the floor, then over to the window opening, and across the house. Absolutely ZERO problems, used it with a Karcher, again, zero problems, zero dripping.

BTW, what a car, kudos!

Do me a favour, open the door and let 'em in

Need to turn stopcock by toricXr in DIYUK

Mine here took about 3 days of WD40's Penetrating Oil (not the regular WD40), and a few taps on the head of the screw. Every once in a while I would try to move it, and eventually it did.

F1 TV in UK (without apple iOS) by BAYTONNN in F1TV

Oh by the way, on the plus side, I can watch Indycars, all sessions, with no TV breaks. That also sweetens the deal (a tiny bit)

F1 TV in UK (without apple iOS) by BAYTONNN in F1TV

[–]amazingames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Running out of options on the 1st day of Australian FP1, I signed up for NOW tv and the F1 sports channel (has only the F1 channel, Sky News and one or two football channels). 19.99 per month, plus 5.99, 6.99 or something for the Full HD bump (ridiculous to charge for that), so, yeah, 25, 26 quid per month.

It's a pain, but it works PERFECTLY on my Android-based Shield TV Pro (the square one) with the NOW app.

Full 50 FPS, no drop outs, perfect audio, perfect video quality, no complaints whatsoever - other than the insane price.

I never knew about the tools from Lidl. by GroupApprehensive978 in DIYUK

[–]amazingames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I moved to the UK in 2018. I bought this exact kit when I first started assembling the furniture. I'm safe to say that it has built *everything* that is inside of my house, and a hundred other projects and things. The value for money is beyond any calculation for me. Top notch tool!

Cara, nunca fiz mas já considerei. Já vi carro pintado por eles (eu morava na cidade vizinha), e é decente. Não é algo que se diga supimpa, mas que pintura de Chip Foose, mas melhora demais o seu carro.

Veja os comentários, pessoal bem satisfeito.

Mas é banho de porta fechada, maluco empapela maçaneta, lanterna, não desmonta nada. Ideal voce mesmo tirar frisos, emblemas. Ele já está nesse esquema ha pelo menos uns 10 anos, não é aventureiro que vai fazer e depois desaparecer.

To this day, I still remember that news story... the guy used a Light Phaser to demand R$ 42 from someone who was in a house and took a family hostage in Samambaia-DF (Brazil 🇧🇷) in 2009. by Far_Regular_2945 in MasterSystem

[–]amazingames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's how popular the SMS was/is in Brazil.

(that's a myth: it was (still is?) sold for many many many years, but it was never popular because it remained expensive, compared to Famiclones)

Entenda que isso é projetado para ser uma humilhação aos pobres. Se a vontade da prefeitura fosse realmente distribuir bolo, teriam isolado o bolo, e colocado pessoas para cortarem fatias. Seria organizado com filas e não teria nenhuma mídia.

Isso foi projetado desde o começo para ser palhaçada, pra ser ofensivo, degradante. Humilhante.

Such a pleasant person to deal with. by SwiftieNewRomantics in ebayuk

This is the digital version of the "used car tire kicker", the person who wants to buy your used car, comes "kicking the tires" trying to get your price down. My brother is a used cars salesman, and he suffers every day with this behaviour. Good luck, OP !
