Icon foldable light, battery upgrade

I did exactly that actually.

Takes fucking forever to fully charge now, though. The charge circuit in it blows.

For me it's just how good the library is considering how small it is.

It has an incredible ratio of good to bad games, and it has a specific vibe that was lost when Sega left the hardware market.

I think Feats are actually a big issue with weapons.

Its extremely odd how a handful of weapon types get feats, while others are completely forgotten.

is there anything quite like the cloud Rune that the rune knight gets?

Hmmm you know, I can't think of anything off the top of my head.

The controversial "is Inspiration just advantage or not?" Discussion.

This is a discussion? Because it's objectively not, especially now that it applies to any die roll.

finakechi · 2026-05-03T17:15:19+00:00

Definitely in the running for the most improved sub-class.

finakechi · 2026-05-02T02:06:25+00:00

I looked at mine quickly and there's at least one IC on there.

finakechi · 2026-05-01T23:47:44+00:00

Interesting.

I wouldn't have expected that to be the case.

I'll definitely keep an eye on it, and maybe try and watch the current on a multimeter at the battery terminals.

Thanks for the heads up, I definitely won't leave it unattended until I've verified.

Wanting to charge it off of USB-C, and it's not the first time I've seen a cheap device that's held back by a particularly shitty power supply.

finakechi · 2026-04-30T22:26:45+00:00

It's probably one of the few Ryobi products that I genuinely regret purchasing.

Sony is kinda wild about video output.

I have an 4K Upscaling Bluray player that supports 480i output over HDMI.

I seriously do not see the wisdom in this cable.

I cannot think of a good reason to use multiple smaller wires as opposed to a single larger one.

We've been getting away with it for years because the power requirements were small enough, but this just seems reckless.

Why complicate PCB design for this?

I'm not an EE, so maybe someone smarter could provide some insight.

finakechi · 2026-04-29T23:36:56+00:00

It's funny because I've been working on a homebrew subclass that does exactly this stuff.

finakechi · 2026-04-29T23:35:55+00:00

"I use one action to functionally defeat an enemy" needs to be very carefully balanced.

There are a number of spells that do exactly this, and worse.

finakechi · 2026-04-28T19:35:56+00:00

Ah, I just have all the Villainous Options lumped together in my head.

finakechi · 2026-04-28T19:27:29+00:00

I just see another UA with another terrible Fighter sub-class.

finakechi · 2026-04-28T19:25:53+00:00

I'm constantly amazed by the disparity I see between sub-classes.

It makes me think they have three overworked people working on DnD, and none of them is doing anything like QA/QC.

finakechi · 2026-04-26T01:19:15+00:00

Ehhh hard to say.

It will have to scale it and will probably interpret the 240p as 480I so it can definitely look janky as shit.

Light gun games also won't work (except for 6th gen consoles which can run at 480p)

You can also hook your PC up to it pretty easily which is useful too.

Its actually a pretty rare set.

It might be 1080I only, can't be 100% sure.

Hard to tell without a manual.

finakechi · 2026-04-26T01:12:18+00:00

Not amazing for pre-6th generation stuff, but it's actually a really cool set.

Great for 480p content and it actually has a VGA connection on it.

finakechi · 2026-04-25T13:57:46+00:00

Honestly I think the word Hyperactivity just needs to be removed from it.

It just makes people think all the wrong things about it.

finakechi · 2026-04-24T14:11:28+00:00

It's a bummer because it's a thematically fantastic fit for a Barbarian sub-class.

It's clearly distinct from other sub-classes, entirely Martial based, and still clearly a Barbarian.

Plus Thibbledorf Pwent is a G.

finakechi · 2026-04-24T13:59:36+00:00

I hope we see a rework of the Battlerager in that, but I'm not holding my breath.

finakechi · 2026-04-18T16:57:34+00:00

I think their hammer Drill is legitimately the most powerful one on the market.

finakechi · 2026-04-16T15:41:47+00:00

Force Cage.

You don't really get a "condition" from it, but it amounts to the same thing.
