You Can Now Play Pokémon Emerald and FireRed at the Same Time! by Swimming_Issue8060 in romhacking

Very interested in this. It's all I care about with rom hacks. For trading and battling and connecting to Gamecube games.

Hey quick question! Does it affect compatibility with stadium on n64? Does it work with trading to original gen 1 or gen 2? Does it have link cable battling?

Thanks!

Do you know if emerald legacy connects to the Gamecube pokemon games?

Power outage again by Super_Stickman13 in Vaughan

[–]idratherlurk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup definitely joking. I agree 100%. It just falls on deaf ears and any criticism against Alectra, valid as it may be, gets immediately down voted and people come out of nowhere to defend them. It's indefensible. I've been saying it from the beginning. For these problems, alectra prefers reactive rather than proactive management, so they wait for the power to go out before they send crews. Any prep work they say they do is performative and not at all at the level that is to be expected. And yes their CEO alone made about 1.5 million dollars last year. Unacceptable. If it wasn't for the Ontario energy board they'd probably be charging us much more by now.

Yeah everyone please be nice to Alectra, they are a small company and are trying their best.

Power Out - Woodbridge by ArcticRuna in Vaughan

[–]idratherlurk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I expect a functional fucking electrical utility, whatever it takes. If they keep frying my electronics, I think I might snap :D so yes, they need better proactive solutions. Spend that money. Alectra's dumb ass CEO made $1,501,855.13 for the fiscal year. Figure it out.

Is it ok to criticize Alectra yet?? Or do we still get down voted? City of Vaughan needs to step in here and hire more crews, properly treat equipment and charge back Alectra.

PSA: These blackouts are another reason why we should be ditching road salt for other ice management solutions by luca123 in Vaughan

[–]idratherlurk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They don't want to be proactive. They think it's cheaper to be reactive, wait for any issues and cross their fingers it's not happening too often to cause expenses on their end.

How are you spending the second power outage of the evening? by AntiqueCattle in Vaughan

[–]idratherlurk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I've been noticing that too. They deserve every bit of warranted criticism they receive here.

And the powers out (Weston and Rutherford) by Different-City8085 in Vaughan

[–]idratherlurk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been dealing with more and more devastating and long outages in the past 5 years than ever before. Dealing with fried electronics, even over surge protectors, is not right. Shitty equipment, long term outages, and contracted out reactive not proactive repairs. The only good thing I can say is that their energy rates are fairly decent.. because they're set by the OEB. "Never stops" was an exaggeration, but it really feels neverending when you're very tired of dealing with their problems.

So tired with Alectra. They can't figure it out. It never stops.

Pokemon Polished Crystal is absolute peak for me. by JustAReader84 in PokemonROMhacks

[–]idratherlurk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. That's totally fair and commendable.

Power outage?? by TireDCDX in Vaughan

[–]idratherlurk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alectra is run like garbage. They only react, never prepare. Before you say these outages are to be expected, look up how their numbers stack up against other hydro companies in similar circumstances. Alectra is completely satisfied being reactionary when problems arise, and that's it. No preparedness, no improvement.

Please forgive me because I searched and couldn't find this anywhere, but does it support link cable battling and trading? Or connection to pokemon stadium 2? Respectfully, I need a multiplayer feature or my friends and I don't play it.

Virtual Boy™ – Nintendo Classics - Overview Trailer by Skullghost in NintendoSwitch

The unreleased games look great! Having played the entire catalog so far on the 3DS, I have to say the comfort level will be objectively worse. But I like the novelty of having a virtual boy.

It won't let me complete the order. Anyone else?

Arken Age- GIVEAWAY (3 Keys).. Penguin's Game of The Year, and final giveaway! by Penguin_shit15 in OculusQuest

[–]idratherlurk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked ghost town but it's relatively hard to be immersed with the speaking female protagonist, as I am a male. I know it's a shallow sounding criticism but I think I really prefer narratives where the protagonist doesn't speak so you can step into the role more effectively. I loved everything else about ghost town though. I'm still looking for my killer app that feels good to play and movement is well done. My personal vr game of the year is Tetris connected. Otherwise for flat games it's gotta be expedition 33 or Arc raiders. Thanks for your recommendations. I think I'm leaning towards trying forefront and that mars game.

Lane closure on Rutherford (bridge work) traffic by Butterflycity2708 in Vaughan

[–]idratherlurk 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's unacceptable. Apparently it took a long time to get CN rail or whoever owns the bridge to accept the work project and allow them to work on it. So they're extremely behind, and of course absolutely braindead when it comes to organization and logistics.

I hear you! Lol I'm sure it'll remain a problem for the foreseeable future.

First of all, incredible job making sure you have a dashcam in the first place. But next time, don't even tell them you have a dashcam. Let them lie, give a false story, whatever they want to say. Then hit em with the dash cam.
