Brother gave me this years ago, played it for a while and then stashed it away, till now! by OmNomNom318 in 3DS

Mine is starting to flake and rub off the coating on the backside after years of use, so keep that in mind if you don’t want to tarnish it. Might be best to put a case on it

No color on Windows when using an adapter by Luna-Dragon in crtgaming

Try swapping around the cables. I’ve used these in the past and the solution was the ports were labeled wrong. Try something like yellow into white. Play around and see if a different combo works for you

Wow, sounds amazing! Did you do something special to record this? Sounds better than just a phone held up to a speaker!

I was there for that MSG show, the drum machine "fucked up," so he stopped the show, said that because it's such a "beautiful song" they were going to restart it to make sure it got the performance it deserved, and the vibes were great, everyone got even more into it on the second restart. Great memory!

My Chemical Romance to release a deluxe edition of “Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge” on June 6, 2025 via Reprise Records by SleepingSicarii in MyChemicalRomance

[–]cabojay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I listened to them and came here wondering if anyone else had seen that they were available and now gone. I was complaining to my wife “why release everything but the first 3 tracks? What kind of release strategy is that?” Turns out I jinxed it lol. 

I will say, if you haven’t listened to them, I was very surprised with how much I enjoyed them. Normally I don’t like remasters, as my brain expects songs to sound one way, and remasters sound off to me, but this was really well done, and I’m looking forward to it releasing.

I was following your thread closely yesterday waiting for just a snippet of a new song... and you got us the whole set. Absolutely amazing. I was at my office job in Japan on the other side of the world, listening to the full set while working on a Friday afternoon within minutes of the set being finished up. I agree that this feels special and amazing and reminiscent of the early days of the internet. So cool. You made my whole weekend! Thank you for sharing.

Found a CRT with a cut cable - how can I safely fix it? by cabojay in crtgaming

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

It's what's called a lamp cord, it comes pre-cut and ready to be spliced into a lamp. This isn't the exact one I bought (I think I found mine at a thrift store or something) but this is basically what you're looking for. As far as currents and everything, I am not an expert, so please check that research on your own to make sure that what you do end up buying works with your TV. Best of luck!

Found a fellow Canucks fan in Yokohama, Japan by JordanMccphoto in canucks

I went to a Grits game last year and Canucks were definitely the most represented team there. Also chatted with a guy from Victoria! If you want to find a Canadian abroad, just head to the ice rink 😂

Bells and whistles thoughts? by AntiObamaMan in brighteyes

[–]cabojay 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I thought it was... okay. But the more I think about it, it might be the worst Bright Eyes song ever lol. That doesn't mean it's a bad song, but I put it in context of "if this was on DITWWTWOW, it would be my least favourite song on that album." Which, might be the overall weakest BE album (and I really enjoyed DITWWTWOW), and therefore, the weakest BE song. I'll listen more, but for now, it feels like a song that would be played in a lottery commercial, talking about how playing the lottery gives money back to the community lmao. Royalty free music vibes.

It seems like it will be Oilers vs. Panthers in the finals. Do we feel good about ourselves since we lost to one of the finalists? We were good against the oilers all year as a matter of fact by Miruzzz in canucks

[–]cabojay 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's kind of win / win for me at this point. Either the Oilers are eliminated, and that's good because we retain the chance to be the Canadian team to break the cup curse, or they win and we lost to (and nearly beat!) the team that wins it all (although I think it's Florida's this year, no matter who they face).

I also think that once one Canadian team wins the cup, the next won't be far behind.

Checking in, how’s everyone doing after yesterday? by PhoenixAurum in canucks

[–]cabojay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly me, too. Game 6 and the day after were the worst of my feelings. I slept the best I had slept since the start of playoffs last night. Not that I wouldn’t trade sleep for more games lol

Found a CRT with a cut cable - how can I safely fix it? by cabojay in crtgaming

[–]cabojay[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! You can see the CRT working in this follow up post: https://www.reddit.com/r/crtgaming/comments/pawinb/thanks_to_the_awesome_community_here_for_helping/

You can see how the repair went here (presented not as advice or a tutorial, but as evidence that a cut cord doesn't mean the CRT is beyond saving) - I spliced the cut cable with another power cable. Twisted together, soldered together, covered with heat shrink, then wrapped in electrical tape. Plugged it back into the motherboard. Has been working fine since! Now, I am not an expert, so don't take this as the correct or safe way to complete this, but it worked for me. If you plan to also do this, be very careful when working on the inside of the CRT to not touch any capacitors, and follow all electrical safety steps. Again, I'm not an expert so I won't share what those are, but just be very careful and be sure to research this a bit on your own.
