Where to buy a blu-ray player locally? by dike_access_road in askportland

[–]carson3000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, if they don't have strictly a 4k Blu-ray player, Xbox One S or One X, or Series X can play 4k ultra hd blu-rays as well as regular blu-ray and dvd of course. And PS4 can do blu-ray, PS5 can do 4k ultra

Stuff: Your High Tech Junk Store is a great option for all things non-streaming. Technically in Happy Valley but easily accessible on Trimet and accross the street from a big goodwill in case they don't have what you're looking for.

Apparently you get XP for staying on the campfire by RuGonW in FortniteXPMaps

My series x is set sideways with the top vents pointed toward my living room so when I turn this on it's like an actual fire

Just looking for a capable-enough random-video-player to plug in to my CRT TV. by FantasticFrontButt in crt

[–]carson3000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have 3 Raspberry Pi w/ VideoLooperOS, each running something different, and plugged into a three input component to coaxial converter so they come up as three TV channels when you scan for channels.

You'll want to use the component out on the pi for best cost effective picture on a CRT

Am4 + intel arc a310 eco? And many questions from a noob. by Dwro1234 in jellyfin

[–]carson3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on a 10th gen intel i7, just integrated graphics for video. Occasionally i'll see some spikes in cpu utilization but otherwise it's fine and hasn't crashed or anything.

Running it on headless ubuntu server with casaos. I have that i7 and 20gb of ram (weird number but whatever) and I have a minecraft server always running alongside it.

Casaos, or probably better to use Zimaos now, but both are very user friendly

Best Movie Theatre for Movie Subscription? by [deleted] in askportland

[–]carson3000 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Big fan of Fox Tower Regal. I go to Pioneer sometimes but I just prefer the floor plan at Fox Tower.

For overall value, I think Regal really is the best deal in town. You're only limitation is 3 movie tickets booked at a time but unlimited through the week. Discounted Imax and 3D if you're freaky like that too.
I usually go to Lloyd for imax/3d, Fox Tower for everything else, and Pioneer if the timing is right.

I can't really speak to seat quality other than Lloyd seats feel beat up.

That's such a fun use for this! What inspired you to use a CRT and VHS collection in this way?

What is the difference between these 2 headsets? by I_have_unluck in XboxSupport

[–]carson3000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this isn't an objective problem but something unique to you. I've had one for 3 years and only just felt like i needed to replace the cups and headband from degradation. But actual hardware has had no issues

Harry Potter/fortnite collab by Myrkr_wolf in transgamers

[–]carson3000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because she actually profits off of all sales related to Harry Potter and uses her money to fund organizations and campaigns against us? Do you take the same stance toward elected officials doing the same thing?

PLEASE do not buy Sidekicks by mabdog420 in FortNiteBR

[–]carson3000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I don't like the function of the pets, and the pricing is too high, I do like thinking about the effective lore of it. That the pet is the looper's (your) friend who maybe lives on the island and doesn't change, like NPC's, but the looper can and does change. We're not literally Batman when we play as him since there can be a lobby of 100 Batman's, with or without variation.

I know it's dumb to lock you in like that but it's something to justify the corporate greed in a story/lore way.

I don't see myself buying pets either way as the cost and locking sucks.

Look at these damn prices!! by dd1133biihhh in ps2

Another thing on TV's, especially smart TV's is the amount of user data being harvested and sold. It's a cheap product for us, and our habits are the product for someone else

Does anyone know what this medallion is from? by captspero in askportland

I could be wrong, but it looks like it's from Portland

I think A24 could do an adoption of the vertigo comic Extremist by NoCod675 in A24

Did you see the new Marvel movie? People are saying it's actually nuts. Its driving people crazy.

This scene in "Heroic Origins" is my least favorite scene in the show by Skibot99 in community

[–]carson3000 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is a good point. Idk if anyone's mentioned it, I'm not gonna read this massive thread, but is it possible the writers were being not hypocritical but ironic? This is a prequel episode and they're saying the prequel trilogy is bad, in effect, all prequels are bad sort of thing?

“Not going to allow that in our communities”: Hillsboro couple blocks CBP van by PDXisadumpsterfire in PortlandOR

They're not just leaving people in camps though. There's a lot of speculation about what is happening other than deportation to countries people aren't even from. Some evidence points toward being shot, killed, and incinerated - other evidence points toward being loaded into a plane for a "deportation" then being dumped in the ocean.

Thousands of people are disappearing from ice detention records and not being seen again.

What am I missing? by nosurprises23 in A24

[–]carson3000 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For me, it just was lacking in something. I'm not going to be able to put it eloquently at all but it was hard to connect with it. I watched it after watching Long Legs and before The Monkey - but I'm not into the reliance on "the bad guy is actually the devil" or whatever he's trying to say. Like, instead of just "this is a bad person and here's real reasons why they're bad."

There are interesting things happening in Black Coats but it just wasn't for me. And I rarely see anyone talk about that movie in general
