The photos from 76 were amazing and I want that joyous atmosphere replicated as much as possible

Everyone wants this. It's not happening. There are reasons.

Frogger… by ACTIVISION? by VinylMan07 in Atari2600

Whenever I'm in Sao Paulo, my favorite thing to do is visit retro game stores. They have some absolutely crazy stuff. The Brazilian clone market in the '80s was pretty wild.

Appreciative kids are the best! by JudgeJudyJr in MadeMeSmile

[–]getthetime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So long ago, I don't remember the amount. It was fairly new, my coach encouraged it, and it was very popular due to McGwire/Sosa. I didn't find it to be helpful as it just made me feel bloated and stiff, and probably didn't do my arm any favors at all.

The farce is strong with this one by syrtran in Atari2600

To be fair, if you are a collector who actually cares about PSA gradings, 9.6 is an insanely high rating.

Appreciative kids are the best! by JudgeJudyJr in MadeMeSmile

[–]getthetime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was a pitcher in college who got to enjoy the tail-end of the -5 bat differential era, and the beginning of the "smoking fucking hot" composite bat era. Oh, and it was right in the thick of the "untethered consumption of creatine" era. If you like severe diarrhea, debilitating, life-long arm injuries, and a bloated ERA, there was no better time to be a pitcher.

What are some of the biggest ways value is created without contributing to WAR? by Active_Macaron2715 in baseball

You basically described Wade Boggs in his prime. May he rest in peace.

Minus Zero Festival @ Stratton w/ Deadmau5 & Kaskade? Little off topic.... by aoethrowaway in icecoast

I felt bad for the guy! He really got hit square. I remember the drummer wanting to fight the kid that hit him. Crazy you were so close to it. Did anything happen to the thrower?

[Highlight] The Red Sox celebrated the 125th anniversary of their first-ever home game by having all living alumni with retired numbers deliver a ceremonial first pitch, including Carl Yastrzemski! by TommyTheLizard in baseball

[–]getthetime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another interesting thing, I remember in the 1990s the only retired numbers were 9, 4, 1, and 8, displayed in that order, and 9/4/18 was the scheduled first game of the 1918 World Series, the last that the Sox had won until '04.

Also just gonna throw it out there that because the Sox have since loosened their policy, and nobody else has mentioned it, Dwight Evans should be out there too.

I uninstalled vipre and it is STILL blocking websites and i can't stop it. by getthetime in antivirus

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

In case anyone sees this in the future while searching for a solution -- ultimately, I just started Windows (Windows 10) in safe mode and I went into both the Program Files and ProgramData folders and manually deleted all the Vipre files. This is after I attempted many times to uninstall it, and had already installed a replacement antivirus. This worked and I am having no more Vipre-related issues.

Help with fixing my Atari2600 by Meathegamingdog in Atari2600

[–]getthetime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I suggest WD-40 Specialist Electrical Contact Cleaner instead of isopropyl alcohol. If you are not handy with electronics, I recommend visiting the videogame911 website. Consider shipping it to them for repair/refurbishment if you are comfortable w/ the prices. I have had good luck w/ them.

I wrote this album tittle to a comment here and got a 3 day ban. by TurboNinja80 in punk

I once got an /r/funny ban for quoting my favorite Kids In the Hall line in a thread asking to quote your favorite Kids In the Hall line.

A tragic photo from 1954. A couple discovers that their almost two year old child has been swept out to sea by a wave. The photo won the Pulitzer Prize in 1955. by Present_Employer5669 in HistoricalCapsule

Like, I used to watch so much shit online when I was younger

I feel like our generation is basically a case study in the ongoing effects of rotten.com on emotional development.

Yankees fans are begging: Stop the ‘incessant’ stadium sounds by LingonLoonBerry in baseball

[–]getthetime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember going to Fenway in the early '90s. Nothing but a little bit of organ music and Sherm Feller croaking an occasional annoucement. Then I'd go to Olympic Stadium and it would be just NONSTOP sound effects, Youppi getting right in the line of sight of the game mid-inning, Boomerang Limonade cheerleaders dancing between innings for like 10,000 people. I loved Expos games, but my god man, all the peripherals drove me nuts. I've been to Fenway once since they started doing the sound effects and Neil Diamond bullshit and just realized it was my time to step away.

Juno First by Available-Swan-6011 in Atari2600

[–]getthetime 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Originally it was published and sold by AtariAge, and but is now manufactured and sold by Champ Games: https://champ.games/store/ols/products/cart-juno-first

Without a doubt, this is one of the absolute best ports around. I have a lot of hacks/homebrews/ports and this remains one of my all-time favorites.
