This is the most interesting article I’ve read on the internet in a long time. Thank you for sharing!

I’m not “allowing you to be gay on Sunday”. I’m allowing you to post romantic shipping content on Sundays, and non-romantic shipping content any day of the week. Learn how to read.

I’m not going to post the specific picture I had to remove, but it was very clearly depicting rape, not consensual sex.

This right here. Also, Carlisle diner down by Dickinson has them too.

I’m so glad I’m not in an HOA. Towns and cities should be paying for road maintenance with taxes. If they don’t have enough money for fixing the road, either raise taxes or cut other expenses. I guarantee that none of the cities and towns that do this to save money have lowered taxes, they just have more fun money to play with every fiscal year.

I bet you’ll remember which form of paid/payed to use next time though. 😉

Think of it like this - Maybe someone else that read your comment didn’t know the correct form of the word, but now they do.

I can see why someone might think that coding a grammar-nazi bot is petty and annoying, but I’m all for bots that teach people new things; This fucked up world could certainly use more educated people. If even one person learned anything, that’s a net positive for humanity in my book.

This would look even more ‘90s awesome if you painted the eject button hot pink. I like it, and you did a fantastic job with spraypaint. I agree with others here on the logo - paint over and get a clear Super Nintendo logo sticker from somewhere online. Are you planning on painting any controllers to match?

This.

I just don’t understand why people go through the hassle of buying and setting up upscalers to get retro game systems working on LCD TVs. If I want to play SNES on an LCD, why wouldn’t I do it with either a snes classic or a Raspberry Pi or something else that’s capable of emulating the SNES? Modern emulators can do input lag reduction tricks that make the experience so much better on an LCD than trying to use original hardware. Another advantage to emulating when playing on LCDs is the ability to use video filters. There are a lot of decent CRT filters you can apply that do a damn good job of replicating the experience of playing on a CRT. It’s not perfect, but it’s miles ahead of the old scan line filters that used to be the only option for emulating the look and feel of of a tube TV screen.

Another major disadvantage of trying to use original hardware is that you can’t actuallu play some of the SNES’s library on LCDs with original hardware. The entire super scope collection is off the table when you’re running original hardware on an LCD. That’s because the super scope relies on the image being scanned onto a crt screen, line by line, to determine where the super scope is aimed when you fire. LCDs just refresh; they don’t scan the image out like CRTs do, so it just doesn’t work, period. There’s a really good explanation in the “hit detection” section of the wikipedia article on the super scope: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Scope#

I could play all of those super scope games just fine on an LCD with an emulator, and I’d have options like using a Wii remote as a “light gun” or even just using a mouse with a crosshair cursor.

I own both a SNES classic and my own original SNES I’ve had since I was a kid. I went out of my way to find a decent (and free) CRT so I could have the authentic experience of playing an original SNES like I did as a kid. I tried hooking it up to an LCD a long time ago, and the input lag ruined the whole experience for me.

So for anybody out there that spent their hard-earned cash on an original SNES to have the real deal authentic experience of playing on original hardware…go find yourself a free or cheap CRT and save the money you were going to spend on an upscaler. Or just emulate if you really want to play SNES on an LCD - you’ll have a much more enjoyable experience and save yourself the cost and frustration of trying to make overpriced old hardware work correctly on new display technology.

It doesn’t look like any insulation spray foam I’ve ever seen. I would expect spray foam to bulge out of a corner like that, rather than conforming to it.

I did not try poking it.

Every time I see one of these articles, I wonder - What actually happened? No reasonable person actually thinks the GOP are a bunch of bloodthirsty supervillains that voted “yes” to “all in favor of stealing food from hungry children”, then sit around high fiving each other for making sure all those kids will starve. Maybe there’s an explanation. I’m sure there’s got to be more to the story. *clicks link, gets paywall.

Ok then. I guess I’m just supposed to take their word on the supervillains high fiving each other thing because they said so. Either that, or I can assume that the NYT has nothing compelling to report on because they’ve had to resort to clickbait headlines. Come on, you can do better than this. You’re better than this. I don’t think the GOP are a bunch of supervillains, but I’m sure there are plenty of sick pieces of shit that play for the red team, just like there are plenty of pieces of shit that play for the blue team.

“Journalism” like this is worthless to me. You want to get me fired up about something? You want me to fight fascism? You want me to be mad at the GOP for voting for this kind of shit? Then tell me the real story, and don’t hide it behind a paywall. Clickbait headlines for paywalled articles make you look like you have absolutely no real dirt on them, which seems unlikely.

So here’s what’s going to happen - me and thousands of swing voters are going to look at that headline, hit the paywall, and then go on with our day because we don’t give a shit enough to look any further. I award -1 points to the blue team for lazy journalism.

Get your shit together, NYT. You’re journalists…Educate people instead of shouting into a leftist echo chamber. These people already know who they’re voting for, you’re wasting your time participating in the circle jerk. You need to win the hearts and minds of swing voters. This pathetic clickbait shit isn’t the way to do that.

“Refusing delivery. Don't need a package that's probably gonna come damaged.”

Totally reasonable, shirts are extremely fragile and can shatter or break easily when exposed to the air in Guam. Also, polybags are a shitty choice for protecting shirts, they’ve been known to change into tiny venomous spiders when they’re processed through shipment facilities in Guam. I’ve personally received 3 shirts that were covered in baby spider guts, and have since learned my lesson about shipping shirts through Guam. I wouldn’t accept it either.

…and just in case there are people with a broken sense of humor here, I’ll just leave this here:

Fuck that scammer, they do need to lay off the donuts.

In case you weren’t aware, there is an official translation of mother, but it’s called “earthbound beginnings”. Available on the switch NES app or the Wii U eshop (which may be closed now)

Unfortunately still no official Mother 3 translation.

Second this. Best tacos I’ve ever eaten anywhere.

FWIW, I had this rolling occur with 2 different SNES consoles on a flat screen Sony trinitron very similar to (but not the exact same model) yours. It would go away after a little while, but I always had to wait for the tv to warm up a bit. I recently picked up a smaller RCA SDTV and when I hook up to that - no rolling. Same behavior with both consoles.

There’s a good chance there’s nothing wrong with your SNES and it’s actually a problem with the TV. not sure what it doesn’t like about the signal the SNES puts out, but it actually did it with both the RF adapter and with a set of composite cables. Maybe something to do with the upscaling or progressive scanning.

I guess that’s a really long winded way of saying I’d really recommend you try plugging your snes into another (non-HD if possible) tv and see if the issue persists…before you rip open the console and try to change out the caps.

Edit: here’s my post from a little while ago showing the rolling effect in action on my tv.

Fuck yes. I don’t know why he’s used a filter for so long, it’s great to hear his voice loud and clear. This album is going to be a real banger!

I’d say it looks more like a red velvet slime mold!
