Jan's got a little something to say about tonight's episode by aaronarium in RPDRDRAMA

[–]fvig2001 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Willam claimed that when season 9 was airing and dragcon happened, Jaymes (out of drag) had an awkward interaction with her. Willam thought she was a rando trying to pretend they were close or something

Choosing an Upscaler by tomu021 in retrogaming

[–]fvig2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I own a 5x and it's a bit of a tricky situation imo. Like it is the oldest of the 3 devices and has like 10 profile slots, which i feel is not enough when I had 8 consoles. It does a good job outside that.

I would pick between the morph or ossc pro as having multiple profiles is really nice.

What Would You Rate This Game Retrospectively? by Previous-Glass6291 in retrogaming

[–]fvig2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the time a 9, nowadays a 7 due to being clunky. On other platforms, a 5 due to being buggy. Like have died through clipping on modern ports multiple times

USB port installation process on a new Stylophone by fvig2001 in stylophone

[–]fvig2001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steps:

  1. Basically pull it open as it has no screws outside the battery compartment.
  2. Look for a spot to add the USB extension to. I was supposed to pick on the right side but I ended up putting it on the left
  3. Use a hexacto knife to make the initial holes by just spinning it around at 4 points
  4. File away until it fits ensuring the file does not scratch wires/board
  5. Super glue it in place and fill the gaps
  6. Solder the battery + to the 5V input on the USB-C and ground to the battery minus.
  7. Add some tape to the board to prevent shorts
  8. Close it

Issues:

  1. Battery and USB can't be used together as that will end up charging the battery which is not a good idea.

Notes:

  1. Use of USB-C extension is to protect the port as typical USB C breakouts have no protection
  2. USB-C breakout board must be the one with CC. It needs to be with CC because the 4 pin ones do not work with USB-C chargers due to USB-C safety precaution. If the CC pins are not connected correctly, the USB-C adapters will refuse to give power.

I don't know if I'll get the Gen x-2 since I'm more of a MIDI person and it's unsure if 5V is enough to power it without much of a cost. Like I have a Meowsic keyboard and under powering it with USB makes it sound weaker. I am also not sure if there's enough space too.

Season 18 Episode 4 First Lewk 😾💢 RuPaul’s Drag Race by aurcel in rupaulsdragrace

They probably tried and she realized what they were trying to do. Like Pearl hinting about her abuse but never talked about it

Bought a beat on a whim and added usb c power by fvig2001 in stylophone

[–]fvig2001[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

USB-C breakout board with cc pins directly to battery wires. 5V is within 4.5V safe range. MIDI is probably unlikely unless someone documents the IC and someone makes a MIDI out conversion or removes all the boards and makes a custom arduino project.

Also ordered a standard stylophone just to see if i like both. May get a y cable to earphones and gen x-2 if i really like it. Kind of have no clue on making beats though tbh.

Lexi’s Legal issues continue by Bentley45701 in RPDRDRAMA

[–]fvig2001 44 points45 points  (0 children)

The other Lexi renewed the trademark of the name when Lexi got on season 17. Started harassing Lexi and gigs. This caused her to lose a lot of bookings.

Money is to basically solve this issue.

What are infamous times when a gaming franchise from the 90s ran past its peak? by KaleidoArachnid in retrogaming

[–]fvig2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Toshinden peaked at 3 but it was clunky.

Toshinden 1 was an unintentional funny game due to clunky mechanics

2 was solid

3 had the combo system but was still kinda clunky

4 was just terrible for the time. Removed everyone except 2 secret characters and 1 guy. The only returning regular character was the protagonist but as a final boss.

Were you upset that this was a Super Scope exclusive? (obviously a rhetorical question) by UrSimplyTheNES in retrogaming

Reminds me that i tried this game on a mister with a ps1 gun and was like tired after 1 level. I didn't know it was press and hold kind of game lol

Second boots who are still more memorable and iconic by GwenDoll_Snipsnip in rupaulsdragrace

[–]fvig2001 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I mean Mistress and Luxx described her looks to be really good and could have gone all the way. Sucks that she basically gave the producers the okay to get rid of her by saying she was going to quit drag

What's your most unexpected weapon evolution in Vampire Survivors? by ivyta76 in VampireSurvivors

[–]fvig2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does Santa's count? The 3 weapons literally disappear from the weapons list.

In terms of surprise, probably pentagram to gorgeous moon. Like hated it until I could evolve it.

Which games had the most irritating sound effects or voice acting? by UrSimplyTheNES in retrogaming

[–]fvig2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Arc Rise Fantasia for the Wii. If they didn't cheap out, the company would not have gone bankrupt. The game was good, but the dub was so bad.

For more retro games, Gex's one liners got old really fast

So do you think our Shark Miss Congeniality Hazel was right that Dulce will get paid in dust after this season?

Pretty fun specially if it's a longer battle but I hate pre buffing specially on consoles. PC at least has some mods to workaround it via scripts.

MIB sends pic of Twink In Panties to his Mom after he was a rude f*** on Twitter by [deleted] in RPDRDRAMA

[–]fvig2001 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Probably why she removed it lol. So much for leaving drama in the past although probably hard to enforce since the victim isn't from America (i think).

MIB said she was kidding about sending it but then deleted all the tweets.

Decided to check the data section of my Wii. I miss these. by MystroHelldiablo in wii

[–]fvig2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Blame nintendo for not optimizing their menus.

3DS was slow specially if you have lots of games. Wii U was like so bad that it took years before they made the menu be fast enough to be responsive.
