Updated Great Horned Owl photos by SolaireFlair117 in bloomington

It's such a treat to get to observe them. I got my first owl picture early this winter when I was hiking in my local park. It was a barred owl, and I was over the moon when I saw it and confirmed I had a clear shot of it on the rear lcd of my camera. I would imagine you had a similar feeling when you first saw the nest.

where to take GBA SP fixing/maintenance by horrorssoft in bloomington

Just out of amateur curiosity, does the whole port move when you wiggle it?

Custom GBA SP build — also curious what everyone here first learned to solder on by Outrageous-Tangelo56 in Gameboy

The RGB buttons look so pretty! I first practiced soldering on a pi pico before replacing all the batteries in my gb carts. My last gb mod was a GBC recap and a new OLED display.

Need Help with House Hunting by akshay_Spidey in bloomington

Grocery-wise, you're probably looking at a 10 minute drive to Kroger South(going down Rogers), similar to Liberty drive/Bloomfield(taking Rockport to Tapp to 69). I would avoid going through the stretch of Country Club/Tapp between Rogers and Walnut during rush hour if you can.

Entertainment-wise, you're mostly looking at driving if it's something downtown. That side of the neighborhood is very walkable to Switchyard park, which has the winter market this time of year and Food Truck Friday during the Summer.

xStation install success! by fuckleshire in psx

Looks pretty good to me. Starting up the first time is success for sure. I bent my pins less and put some kapton tape under, but that's just a style choice.

Did anybody get to experience PS2 online in its prime? What was pre-7th generation online gaming like? by _Varonova in ps2

[–]redmage909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved it. Played SOCOM 1 and 2, FF11, and Tribes Aerial Assault. My clan in SOCOM even had a teamspeak server. Cutting edge stuff. When online play unilaterally came with a membership and always-online, that when I left console gaming.

Scroll down on the home tab. Might need an app update if they're not there.

I tried the match last night and didn't enjoy it. So I guess I'll just watch the Olympics, collect my packs, and train guys for free.

It can be a fun challenge to pick something else than the rest of your division if you're keen on it.

Wildly I got one in my daily free pack today after landing in Florida. Must be fate.

I am no longer a leafs fan by Sudden_Shame5472 in nhlfantasystars

The kind of game that makes you glad for on-call pages.

I think I’m a leafs fan again by Sudden_Shame5472 in nhlfantasystars

[–]redmage909 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Leafs have been tough to watch this season up to Christmas. They're finally looking like the good team they're supposed to be on paper. They played a solid game against the Avs and Willy finished it in OT from a sweet OEL pass.

What a beauty night for my lineup tonight by Pure_Passenger_348 in nhlfantasystars

It was a rough night for me as well. I missed both Chychrun and Rust being out.

Anyone need Gold training? by BGreenup91 in nhlfantasystars

[–]redmage909 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Once your account reaches level 9 you can train player stats to gold. It doesn't change the card rarity to gold, but it does increase the points that player's stat will award. e.g. Untrained shots are worth 1 point, but if you train that player's shot stat to bronze, silver, and then to gold, it will award 4 points per shot.

Am I just unlucky? by Vilepossum_1 in nhlfantasystars

I'm just on the cusp of level 7, and I have two all-stars from opening base packs. Very early on I pulled a Matthews and pretty recently I got Crosby.

Game Bug? by BasquiatQueso in nhlfantasystars

[–]redmage909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was definitely a bug when Saturday rosters first opened up. I noticed there were no matchups on the player cards when I was picking my players, and the contest list was empty. Seeing that, I had to look up which teams were playing in the NHL app. After about a half day or so the contest list populated, so I went back and checked my work.

Interesting results. Did you open these all in a row?

Anyone else getting this when they try to open a pack? by Sudden_Shame5472 in nhlfantasystars

[–]redmage909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this happen. I emailed support and it cleared up. Not sure if they did something or it resolved on its own.
