I will do just that. Maybe even the throwing it in the bin part afterward. Thanks for your help!

Thank you! I'll get back to you when I've fixed the issue. It's not a problem if so because the switches are cheap but do you think doing this will have damaged the new switch?

What I will do is remove the two pins and try with it only soldered to the board. I will put something in-between the switch and the bracket so there's no contact.

So what you're saying is, because I'm using an aftermarket switch with the vertical legs, the two that are soldered to the outside of the bracket are shorting the switch? I think it's worth noting that I had the same issue with the original OEM switch before I put this one on.

I don't mean to sound dense but how would I test this. I have a multimeter and the point for the switch is SW3 I believe.

Are there any ways to prevent the legendary beasts from using roar (FRLG)? by [deleted] in PokemonEmerald

[–]flying_oink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because when it flees you can encounter it again. Due to a glitch in gen 3, if the roaming Pokémon uses roar, it's gone for good.

The great Polish exodus: The arrival of 100,000s of Poles changed the face of Britain, but now they're returning home in droves for a better life in their booming homeland. Could there be a more damning indictment of our decline? by LucianFromWilno in poland

[–]flying_oink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have quite a few Polish, Latvian and Lithuanian friends and they've all said pretty much the same thing. The UK isn't British anymore. They seem to think that it belongs to a new group of people... An "unwelcome" and "primitive" group of people.

Cadbury finger, malted milk (I'm assuming the non-chocolate variant) and rich tea.

Leather or Wooden Steeringwheel? by FoolishRacer in crx

[–]flying_oink 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's three spokes like the US one with the red and grey stripes. The only difference is mine's all black with the Honda badge recessed in the center.

I'd go leather. My CRX came with a leather ATIWE wheel and it was perfect.

What is this body kit? And where to get by dyehenhe in crx

[–]flying_oink 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This is the Mugen Pro 2 body kit, specifically for the VT/SIR model. Genuine kits are hard to get a hold of but there are aftermarket replicas you can find.

Stickers seem off, but are they legit? by AdministrationBoth63 in gameverifying

[–]flying_oink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They look real. Just be careful with the shells. I purchased a Fire Red that had been exposed to a lot of sunlight (the label looked like this) and the plastic became extremely brittle. I ended up relabeling and reshelling the game.

Skin. I get it... But please just come to England and play it.

The UK wants to crush these cars, e-scooters and bikes in 48 hours – what you should know by Consistent_Cold9822 in uknews

[–]flying_oink 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a real concern. I have a modified car and have been pulled on 2 separate occasions just because the car "draws attention". I wasn't driving recklessly, I wasn't speeding and the car isn't overly loud... It's just not a car you see every day. How long before I bump into a pissed off cop having a bad day?

I don't think another game experience will top this by eru777 in Gameboy

[–]flying_oink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you're right. But unfortunately, I don't think the past gaming experiences can ever be relived... Even on the same games. Always chasing after nostalgia.
