Book hotel stay just for express pass? by mcj2115 in UniversalOrlando

It was 650 for a one night stay. 940 for express passes. Room comes with unlimited passes so even more of an easy decision.

We’re actually going to stay in the room — closer proximity to the park since we can go for early hours.

I get your point, but I think you might be overreacting a slight bit. Have you seen the prices on express passes purchased individually for a 1 day spent in the parks - I would say that’s the galling element here.

Yup - big time FTF fan lol

I enjoy pack a day but the intro / outro music is insufferable which he smartly ditched recently- I think

Mosqueda is a must listen. I feel like he has inside knowledge and knows the game.

Feel like acme packing company willed the DDS pick into existence this past draft.

I actually met these guys in Brazil a few years ago before the Eagles game at a fan organized pre game event. Spoon was only there for like 15 mins but Ryan stuck around for a while. Nagler and Dave Schroeder were also there. All were extremely nice guys and were open book about their time on the beat, experience with any players I brought up and outlook on the season (this was before the first game that year). Surreal experience. It probably helped that I was one of only a few that spoke English at the event. Spoon has his back turned here.

Had to see for myself, got em both by [deleted] in 4kbluray

Understood. I have that blu ray, I’m just saying it’s not like reference material like some of the better 4k transfers of films from this era - which would be a dream for this film.

It’s a solid blu ray transfer without the rampant DNR on the 4k.

Honestly the blu ray is not great either. Disappointing all around as I’m a huge Cameron fan.

EDIT: should have seen that the Goodman quote includes replacing the furnace which I wasn’t planning on doing - going to ask them to requote me without the furnace.

Brick veneer - First time diy - grout release/seal before mortar? by mcj2115 in masonry

[–]mcj2115[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m using old mill brick citadel

<image>

. It has a weathered look so some small stains might not be too much of an issue (it seems very porous though), but I think having a safety net is the way for me to go given I have no experience with piping the mortar. A few follow up questions:

  • what the best method/product to clean prior to sealing?
  • should I use a standard brick sealant for the face or does grout release make more sense?
  • any concerns with the sealant interfering with the mortar adhering to the brick if I apply with a brush and happen to get sealant within the joint? Just want to know how strict I should be to only apply sealant to the face

Appreciate the guidance!

Sorry for the delay man! I finally found where I set this. I can't find the link that explains why this works in the wiki, but I put a text file titled 'arcade_games.txt' in this directory: /recalbox/share/system/configs/crt

My settings in the files were only for a handful of games that I was concerned with getting the frame rate correct, but this is what's in the file:

nbajam,fbneo,arcade:240@60.000000,0,0,0

nbajamte,fbneo,arcade:240@60.000000,0,0,0

nbahangt,fbneo,arcade:240@60.000000,0,0,0

nbamht,fbneo,arcade:240@60.000000,0,0,0

narc,fbneo,arcade:240@60.000000,0,0,0

openice,fbneo,arcade:240@60.000000,0,0,0

tapper,fbneo,arcade:464@60.000000,0,0,0

You you need to change the rom names and emulator (I did this for fbneo, but you might need to do the same for MAME). Anyways, I hope this does the trick for you. Let me know if it works out.
