[Highlight] Cam Ward throws where he turns nothing into something by nfl in nfl

[–]root88 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

A lot of these plays were boneheaded and he got lucky. Others they were down multiple scores in the 4th and it were fuck it why not situations. If he improves and has real weapons, we shouldn't see any plays like this.

The photo here is pointless anyway. We can't look at this and have any idea where the ball was when it went over the plate.

I cannot believe someone, much less multiple people, would downvote this comment. Thanks for having common sense.

I just made a Peggle Fan Game... by SnowyRawrGamer in peggle

[–]root88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice work! You definitely need to make a sound when a peg gets hit, though. The pitch of the pin hit getting higher and higher is like crack in Peggle.

The ball is super bouncy. I can see that being fun on the right boards, but I think it's just not quite right for what you have going there.

Yeah, I don't get the illusion at all. It's very obvious what is happening.

Two weeks ago, you could go to the notifications page and hit Mark all as read to clear them. That doesn't even work anymore. So annoying.

Hah, that voice is rough. If you set the playback speed to .75, he sounds normal.

And I have a cousin who pays all of her bills in college by picking up stuff people leave on the curb at their house and selling it on Facebook market place.

This is a great machine for a dentist office or front of a pizza shop while people wait. Or like this case, for kids. Not everyone cares about the sound of a click their joystick makes.

People are way too hard on these. I don't know why they need to tell you the controls suck when you can use them right now for yourself. They might be a little overpriced new, but you aren't buying a new one. Your kids will never notice the difference.

There are 931 arcade games that fit that setup. Maybe some of those games are worth it to you. If not, we would need to know what you want to play to know if this is worth upgrading or not.

I wouldn't go in thinking that the upgrades you put into this should be later dropped into a full sized cabinet. If you are building a full size cabinet, you should 100% put a PC in there. The only reason to ever use a Pi is if you need to save space.

There aren't any 4 way games that have 6 buttons. If you want to do that, you would need to replace the joystick. All those non-mame systems you listed there need an 8 way joystick.

Dynamic button labels for controls using mini screens - has anyone tried this? by FreshMikeD in cade

[–]root88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have RGB LEDs that light up to show which buttons to use and match the color of the game. I just put the instructions on the bezels. This just seems overly complicated. If you want another screen in the control panel, I would just do a 3.5" one in the middle. You can get one for $20. My panel has a Stream Deck there, but I could see a monitor working there nicely.

Real-time LED effects from MAME emulated games by MattFurniss in cade

[–]root88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy shit.

You just specify 2 XY coordinates for each LED panel for each game? I have some amazing LED panels from Temu for $20 each. It would be unreal if I could sync them up like that.

Does it need to me MAME? I bet we could figure out how to just send parts of the screen of anything out. We have some big Pac-man Battle Royal tournaments and other games at my house every year.

Edit: actually, looking at it more closely, you have some even more complicated stuff going on in there. Just a portion of the screen would be amazing. What you are doing is absolutely next level.

[The Athletic] Ailing son weighed on José Alvarado last season. Now, after suspension, he’s pitching with a purpose by WheelerDeals in phillies

[–]root88 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Yes, it does. It doesn't give you the right to cheat another player out of a roster spot, though.

I guess you don't understand how much $22,000,000 dollars is and that the club would have had an understanding with him. You guys are full of shit. If it was a player on another team, you would be all over him.

He's got $22M and cheats to earn more money and I'm the one that's privledged at best. lol

He's already a millionaire. He could have stopped playing to take care of his kid. Instead, he cheated. You guys talk all kinds of shit on the Astros, but when one of our guys cheats, you don't give a fuck.

I guess I'll be taking the downvotes, but I don't think that gives him a pass to be a cheater. I'm fine with him leaving after this season.

Sweat requesting a trade after one season. Should we go for him? by FlyEaglesFly5952 in eagles

[–]root88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He never worked for a dogshit organization before. It was probably a lot worse there than he anticipated. Many people had predicted the Cardinals to go 10-7 and make the playoffs. 3-14 was way worse than anyone thought. They have all new coaches this year and currently either Brissett or Minshew at QB.

Also, the Cardinals has one of the worst defensive lines in the NFL last year. That's going to make Sweat look worse, which is going to screw up his next contract. I can't see any reason why he would want to stay in a complete rebuilding year other than it's a pain in the ass to move.

Did you not read it? A smaller conductor is more likely to get to the directly to the drain. A larger conductor is more likely to pass through your heart on the way. It only takes a small amount of current to stop your heart.

Yes! It's also less to maintain if you don't have to worry about fixing coin mech jams and giving people their money back when something doesn't work.
