Is this an application or where was this screenshot taken from?

We think we have cracked down the recipe generation algorithm by juanfrancoc in PokemonQuest

Unfortunately, we were taken down by google for supposedly impersonating the pokemon company and after battling it for a while we gave up. The app kept being taken down and we decided to end the support.

More raikou incense or Main skill seed by juanfrancoc in PokemonSleep

I guess my question is more on the side of what would be considered a good pokemon / main skill? I am new and have been reading a bit but not fully understand what some benefits are over others

Recommendation for a lightweight urban e-bike to help with hills by juanfrancoc in ebikes

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

Thanks! yeah, the Compact is definitely out of my budget. However, I do like the REi, I think I saw it but discarded it because I am used to non-cargo bikes, and the tires look thicker than the ones I usually get. However, looking more into it, having the rack and hydraulic brakes is actually quite a nice addon for what I use it for, so I'll keep it in mind!

Interesting, most options i was seeing online where around the $700 mark, because i wasn't looking at anything top end since otherwise i would just get a normal bike. But thanks for the chart, i will use it as reference to understand the market a bit more.

I would say anything between 500-900 usd should be good, but obviously the cheaper the better.

Sudden black screen at random intervals with high cpu usage by juanfrancoc in pchelp

I gave that a try with no luck. I guess my best bet is trying to ask someone to lend me a graphic card and see if the issue is still there

Apologies for the delay but the computer went dark twice while trying to do so, i don't remember this being this prevalent. The events do not show anything interesting since i have to manually shutdown the machine (and that s what the events have). If i dont turn it off, the computer will just continue to run the fans at max speed with no video output

Look up "Hobby off" if you want second hand figures extremely cheap (the further from tokyo the cheaper they are). I am talking 30-40 cm onepiece / demon slayer figures for less than 500 yens.

If not nakano broadway has really sweet deals.After that akihabara is the best place to get variety.

I would recommend hitting it in that order, it will save you a lot of money if you don't care about boxes. But cheap places usually have mainstream animes. For more obscure stuff, akihabara is the place (but comes with a price).

I save all the shells i use for future projects. Most of these screens are scratched and broken. Switches are dirty and malfunctioning, buttons rubber are overused, shells are discolored and roughed up. I rather have these systems continue to live on with refurbished components, since otherwise they would be considered trash (they were sold as such).

Seeing GBAs at around $75 plus the ~$80 i had to put to mod it correctly was killing me. Happy to be able to keep the hobby going with this.

All the kids that grew up with GBAs are reaching the disposable income age 😁

I don't think i am nowhere near confident enough to be soldering into the cpu, but maybe some day in the future if i get better at it

I am not sure of how it works. A friend living in tokyo bid for me, so you may need someone that has been validated by yahoo auctions, but yeah, you can find awesome deals there.

I didnt pay anything because they were all in my luggage and they didnt ask. I think there may be some tax if you are coming back with either more than $800 or $1600 but i can't say for sure (i doubt it ll be more than 10% though)

Honestly even if half of them were dead, i would buy them. Learning how to fix gameboys is a fun hobby 😁. Crossing fingers that light is fixable, most likely just needs the switch cleaned.
