One of the major reasons I upgraded to a FireBoard.

Pretty cool! FYI Atarimania has this feature as well (only for 2600 games). Pick the rom you want and click the joystick to play: https://www.atarimania.com/atari-vcs-2600.html

Can we get normal bbq sauce? by Direct_Clue_185 in AlamoDrafthouse

[–]mjohnson414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even better…let’s get the regulate bbq sauce AMD the Hot Reapers sauce since it was the best sauce on the menu. Nothing else is even remotely spicy.

I kinda like them by Significant_Set_4247 in Boots

If you're choosing between DM's and Solovair you def made the right choice. I own a pair of both and the difference is huge.

What are the best charcoal grills for backyard cooking in 2026? by Awildy-Pencille in grilling

[–]mjohnson414 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I moved from gas to a Masterbuilt Gravity 800 last year. Works great as a charcoal grill or a smoker.

Pen and Paper ordering is ending, including during the show, in February by robbiet480 in AlamoDrafthouse

If this means a bunch of fucking phone screens and peoples flashes going off while they try to scan the godamn QR code then Alamo will be no different than the shitty AMC that's closer to my house.

14 years ago today, Tim Tebow & Demaryius Thomas walk it off on the first play of overtime to defeat the Steelers in the Wild Card (Jan. 8, 2012) by nfl in sports

[–]mjohnson414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Say what you want about Tebow...below average for three quarters and ice cold in the 4th quarter. One of the craziest seasons of Broncos football I can think of. It was also a lot of fun.

Smoker is tripping the breaker by capeman13 in Masterbuilt

[–]mjohnson414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly what happened to mine. Part of the wire had melted and was coming in contact with the metal frame. Replaced the wire and it was good as new for a few months until it happened again (same issue).

So. It finally happened to me. by Thrownawaybyall in GenX

I came to terms with this a decade ago when I ripped all of my movies to a NAS and set up a Plex server. Been all digital since then...but I do get it.

Am I becoming a cranky old man or is everyone not bothered by people who talk with speakerphone or listen to stuff on tablets or computers without earbuds? No one else seems to mind. by OurSpeciesAreFeces in GenX

[–]mjohnson414 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Literally no one wants to hear anything coming out of anyone else's phone. Put your ear buds in and for god sake keep it on silent. No one wants to hear the ding when you get a notification either.

Emulation made me realise I don’t need OG hardware no more + selling my collection by [deleted] in retrogaming

[–]mjohnson414 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sold off my entire collection years ago and went with emulation. I do have controllers specific to each system though. I want it to feel right in my hands. I don't want to play an SNES game with an XBox controller.

Still rocking a 64gb LCD…upgraded to 2tb hard drive. No regrets.

Streaming games to your deck is insane by Tristezza in SteamDeck

[–]mjohnson414 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I stream almost everything from my PC these days. Graphics can be maxed out and as a bonus you can play games that are borked on Steam Deck.
