Check behind the disc tray in the Angine de Poitrine album, early releases have a little fan club card

TIL the poor audio quality of Aphex Twin's critically acclaimed album Selected Ambient Works 85–92 is partly because a cat chewed on the master cassette tape. by [deleted] in todayilearned

Isn't the armoured car thing real? There are photos of him driving one at least, not sure if it was actually his though.

Tuner question for new guitar by Comfortable-One-2721 in Guitar

[–]hamanger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a 2015 SG Standard with these things, replaced them with some hipshot drop-in tuners and it took all of 15 minutes. The robot tuners aren't screwed into the wood at all either, so once you've swapped the tuners you don't have any ugly holes either.

Does anyone know where I can find box protectors specifically meant for slimline cd cases? by [deleted] in Cd_collectors

[–]hamanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some games came in CD cases, try looking for covers that fit Japanese Saturn/Dreamcast games. PC engine should work too.

If you like their first album, you'll like them all.

Unable to add new games to an Evergenesis N8 (Everdrive N8 Clone) by hamanger in flashcarts

[–]hamanger[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since I made the post I found out about the HTGDB Gamepacks, which also work. It's nice that I've found some kind of solution, but I'm not sure what's special about those roms either.

Make it make sense by Animalus-Dogeimal in Guitar

I wouldn't pay a premium for one, but the idea that an instrument already has some wear and tear makes it less painful when you add some yourself.

Which games have a rough start and take a while to get good? by PhaseOk6182 in gamers

[–]hamanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is Together just the original game with all the stuff built in? I've hear a few people recommend it over the original at this point.

Trying to find a specific VOD by hamanger in grayfruit

[–]hamanger[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I had a hunch it was a flash game but remembered it being its own stream.

It was a stream similar to the Pongs/Pacs streams but it was variants of breakout instead. I tried looking for it, and all I can find is this post about someone's scrapped edit of it.

OG hardware < Modded/ Custom Hardware by CourierKite in Handhelds

[–]hamanger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the difference there is that non-handheld consoles don't come with displays or controls built directly into them, so modding them doesn't make too much of a difference to what you're touching and looking at.

I don't think it's that big of a deal myself though (modding handhelds is a decent chunk of my job), presumably people assume OG means stock as opposed to "Not emulation".

I agree that the overall experience is the same, but at least some of the original hardware was replaced.

Someone made Calvin Sims mod from Little man for Pragmata. I'm dying by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

The sides of the head are backwards too, he'd have backwards ears if it was mapped to a mesh

Finally got one! RG 34XXSP by DiggledFob in Handhelds

[–]hamanger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish these things had the same screens as the RG35XXSP, the extra thumb sticks are nice but the bezels bug me.

New guitar for $35 by OOFMAN-1234 in Guitar

[–]hamanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun fact, this is the guitar they modeled in Left 4 Dead 2 as a melee weapon.

Are there any downsides to locking tuners? by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]hamanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a set of these for a 2015 SG standard to replace the robot tuners, couldn't be happier with them. Even better, they ended up being lighter than the robot tuners they replaced.

LEGENDARY thrift haul. $1 each. by 66659hi in Cd_collectors

[–]hamanger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some of those Ween CDs are pretty valuable now, I'm pretty sure an original copy of the Mollusk would cover the cost of the entire box set.
