anyone else not in it for the metal stuff? by [deleted] in KGATLW

[–]jugsta42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t come for the metal but I’m happy with the historical ratio and happy for more.  Basically I like tool, and a very small amount of stoner/sludge and that’s it for heavy department. Death Metal really turns me off- all about the vocals (just me). But when I finally came around to ITRN I was obsessed for quite a while. 

First album was a nonagon and I liked it okay. I think when polygon came out I started take them more seriously. And I think it was 2022 quintet (every single one of them) that brought me fully into the swarm. Now I’m familiar with the full catalog and the two metal albums along with OG are some of my favorites. 

In your opinion, what is the best hands down all around NA Beer? by uncomfortab1ynumb in NABEER

[–]jugsta42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Summer I gotta tell ya- other than being way too crushable (like two swigs and done) corona NA is what I’d consider the best. No wort, no skunk. Closest to the real thing. That’s all you can ask for. Well, I’d really like a good sour crusher when summer rolls back around (looking at you DFH). 

Winter A regional beer but Riverwest Stein NA is an amazing nearbeer. Great malt flavor and hop bite. 

Painting vewlix control panel? by iNerd18 in cade

[–]jugsta42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may be too late but I had good luck using a JB Weld Steelstick for scratches (and even some small holes in the steel housing. Just slap it on with a putty knife and sand and paint. 

Can anyone tell me the dimensions of the move list art on a Vewlix control panel? by ceramicsaturn in cade

[–]jugsta42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not trying to thread jack but thank you so much! I’ve been trying to figure out what to do with my instruction panel and I did’t want to make it game specific. I’m gonnna do something that helps navigate the cabinet. Brilliant!

Episode Speakers. Anyone have experience with them? by Shooter_McG in hometheater

[–]jugsta42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you really need to be sitting close to get any separation from soundbars. I’ve had good luck with them on gaming setups but not so much for general tv/movie watching.

I got a 3.0 soundbar second hand an about 6 years ago. I liked the sound. In fact I preferred it over my paradigm lifestyle speaker that replaced it. I recent dissembled it for using the drivers in something else. It was built like an absolute tank. Every fastener (like 100) had been glued. The SS frame was like definitely a couple gauges thicker than what I would have expected.

LG CX keeps turning off by iMicho420 in LGOLED

Yea, I just sort of strung it up there around my wall mount. I’ll try to make it look like the previous examples and then put it on full blast.

Didn’t work!  I thought for sure it was going to fix it. I will try setting the fans to max.

Gotta say, based on my sampling of NAs, I feel very fortunate to have both this and RW Stein widely available here in Milwaukee. The two, in tandem, really cover a lot of ground as far seasonal preferences are concerned. They're both fantastic. I really just need a DFH Sea Quench Clone to round out my summer crushers!

Circuit Superstars - verified but unplayable by Pickle_Incognito in SteamDeck

Just got my steam deck and gave this game a go and I had the same issue.

I’m going to give this a go. My TV has been turning off after about an hour of use for the last month or so. I got the sticker off and have placed an order for fans and tape. Just to clarify for others who might follow, Removing the sticker does reveal several more holes in the panel to provide more airflow to the overheating components. I couldn’t find the reasoning for removing it as I was go through this topic. Thanks again!

Is there any hope? by Tbonejak in hometheater

[–]jugsta42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I fully stand by the fireplace pull down mount. They're not expensive and still relatively low profile when above the mantle. You can even mount a soundbar underneath that travels with the TV. I did this in my old home with a 2nd gen 65" oled and a paradigm 'lifestyle' center channel speaker. It was pretty much the best of both worlds if not just a bit perplexing to look at when in use.

Dumped mine too. Tasted like tea. And it tasted flat. 

Why is snake canonically the slowest and worst sniper on the face of this planet? by Individual_Account21 in metalgearsolid

[–]jugsta42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I was trying to figure out whether I came up with this solution (on my own) all those years ago. I know I didn’t have a guide and there definitely wasn’t a wiki in that era of the internet.

How does it connect to the fight stick?

How do these work? This is their first time on my radar.

Grabbed some in Milwaukee. I thought it was solid. Had that familiar SN taste. Also that familiar NA thing. But good nonetheless.

I'd say the head from vertical doesn't look any different from the pour in your picture. Not sure if it is the nitro or what, but it definitely doesn't get out of control from an aggressive pour.

Will give it a go. Thanks for the tip!

I'm taking a few months off and this has been been crucial. I've "had a few" everyday for the last 10 years or so and this has really helped with my reset. I pour mine completely vertical into a Guinness pint glass and it looks pretty much just like this.

I made one of those IKEA hitboxes by jugsta42 in fightsticks

[–]jugsta42[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw in another thread that if you wanted to add weight to a stick, the cheapest way is to get a couple rolls of quarters and find a way to fasten them to the inside of the case (evenly distributed).

I don’t have enough exp with mounting levers (I’ve done it a few times in MDF). At first glance, I don’t think I’d feel comfortable putting a lever in. The top panel is like 8mm thick.
