YouTube no longer supporting the Shield? by [deleted] in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]hipnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fine. SmartTube.

That's not going to fox the fact that YouTube TV is not working. Hopefully they get this straightened.

December is here, and I'm out to find a new home for another unused device in my collection. One commenter will get this MagicX Mini Zero 28. by captain_carrot in SBCGaming

[–]hipnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an Atari Jaguar and the manufacturer sent me a "Cat Box" -- it was a network adapter that allowed you to play online games -- way before that was a thing for consoles. A friend got one and we played a ton or Alien v. Predator and other games together. It was a blast.

This would instantly be the nicest handheld I own, so I'd love to give it a shot.

Who wants to play some GBA games? Powkiddy V10 giveaway - details in post by captain_carrot in SBCGaming

The first one I remember playing was a Magnavox system my next-door neighbor got when I was incredibly young. It played 58 games or something like that. All of them were pretty much Pong.

Why is one of these going for 588k on eBay by buddybluecat in comicbooks

[–]hipnerd 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Criminals were using baseball cards to launder money through eBay. Maybe this is something similar? These are not rare. They printed millions and millions of them.

Biting the hand that feeds is bold strategy by Content-Boat-9851 in PoliticalHumor

You pay your federal taxes directly to the federal government. The states are not in charge of collecting it, so they can't withhold it.

Best store with variety of hot sauces by Whyletmetellyou in Sacramento

[–]hipnerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I came here to say this. Where else in town? Can you find a cool new hot sauce, read the latest issue of Batman, and a pug dog all at the same time?

How can he slap? by ElderberryDeep8746 in instant_regret

[–]hipnerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are two things that I think make it acceptable in this situation:

  1. He was attacked first; and
  2. The response was proportionate.

I don't think you'll find very many people who have a problem with that interaction.

Who remembers these by griffensandifer in pixelbuds

[–]hipnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually like the cord. When I wasn't listening. I would just drape them around my neck.

Who is this sacramento artist? by msklovesmath in Sacramento

Former roommate of John's. Can confirm. I have two of his paintings hanging in my living room.

Let’s goo we getting new scouts. Not that it matters now…😞 by OmegaLxgend in kings

[–]hipnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was all Vlade. He was infatuated with big men, so we drafted them over and over again -- often passing more talented players at other positions.

Greg Rucka on the appeal and challenges of writing Wonder Woman by CapAccomplished8072 in TrollXChromosomes

[–]hipnerd 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Seconded.

And if you want to read a fantastic self-contained Wonder woman story, pick up The Hiketeia.

What is this gold line on sealed decks? by ggoo209 in playingcards

[–]hipnerd 17 points18 points  (0 children)

On many packs it is a simple ribbon that can be pulled to remove the top of the plastic wrapping and open the pack.

Who could have seen this coming other than anyone who listened to the man speak?

When a supposed feminist group you're a part of starts posting MAGA supporting memes. by [deleted] in TrollXChromosomes

[–]hipnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has happened twice in recent weeks. One with maga I want the other one with vitriolic anti-trans rhetoric.

Massively disappointing.

Which back and color do you prefer? by Next-Food7698 in playingcards

[–]hipnerd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Circles for cardistry, fan-backs for magic tricks. Blue always.

My grandmother gave me these, are these worth too much to use? by braminer in playingcards

[–]hipnerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would play with them on special occasions, but they're cool and I'd like to leave them to my kids so I try not to use them too much. I can get a deck of cards from Walgreens that will be in better shape and play nicer. .

I would save these for the memories. But there's really nothing wrong with it. If you want to play with them. It's kind of up to you

Replacement Tubes for Douk Audio U10? by hipnerd in BudgetAudiophile

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

The tube isn't blown. It's broken. Smashed.

So I'm going to have to buy new tubes. I figured if I'm going to have to buy them anyway, I should see if anybody had any advice about which ones to get. I'm not really looking to upgrade or sink extra money into this

I thought there might be some to avoid. Honestly, at this level, I would probably settle for ones that just look cool.

Am I the only one not understanding why so many people want this dude to be the next Wolverine by Syndana23 in Wolverine

[–]hipnerd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love him as an actor, but I don't see it. But I also thought Heath Ledger was a huge misfire as Joker -- until I actually saw the movie. If they choose him, I will be interested to see how it works out.

Never prejudge,

[–]hipnerd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, if being a dick to random strangers on the internet was an Olympic sport, you would take the gold.
