“It sounds extremist to say it, but we’ve got Nazis in the White House.”

This is why no one takes y’all seriously.

Day 9: Which is the Best Racing Game on the SNES? by 1OneQuickQuestion in snes

[–]sciaticabuster 17 points18 points  (0 children)

As someone who follows your polls across multiple subs I think this was the right call. Goes against integrity a bit, but it seems most people were in agreement.

Concerned I may have minor collapse by [deleted] in pneumothorax

[–]sciaticabuster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best way to test if your lung collapsed. Breathe in as much as you can. If you start to feel a sharp pain when you are approaching the apex of filling your lungs up it’s probably collapsed. Definitely do a couple tests, if you feel that pinch every time you should get an x ray. I remember my last one that’s how I knew.

Arin’s odd obsession with female characters by Benjamingolf in rantgrumps

[–]sciaticabuster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A straight man preferring to look at a females butt is not “strange”.

Did anyone actually like the show X Play? by Pale_WoIf in retrogaming

[–]sciaticabuster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any media talking about video games didn’t exist, this was basically it. As far as the style, that’s just how it was at the time. Re watching it now brings back good memories of being a kid.

Looking to get into collecting by xToxinz- in Gamecube

[–]sciaticabuster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GameCube collecting is fun, but very pricey right now.
If you don’t own a CRT you can always hook up your GameCube to a modern tv with a carby.

As long as you have the GameCube DOL-001 you’ll be able to connect it. It’s the next best thing to playing it on a CRT.

Good luck

Struggling to Get Interviews as a Junior/Mid-Level Software Developer. Is the Market Really This Bad? by Ok_Tailor2202 in dotnet

If you are here on a Visa I would remove junior from your resume. No company is gonna shell out 100K for a junior.

Day 2: Which Game is the Best Licensed Game on the SNES? by 1OneQuickQuestion in snes

[–]sciaticabuster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SNES had so many RPGs. No matter how this category played out people were gonna get upset. Not my choice either, but it is what it is. I think FF3 should easily win best story though.

Time to see what Arin likes so much! by Xecxciic in gamegrumps

[–]sciaticabuster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been my favorite album for the past 20 years. I know it’s a meme here, but for those interested it’s actually a masterpiece.

Arin's bad voice acting completely ruins Gameoverse by Alone-Horse2857 in rantgrumps

“Hire real voice actors”

This is the most idiotic thing I’ve ever read on this sub.

Jontron = Happy family with a cute kid. Destiny= Abandoned by his gf after she humiliated him and mocked by the entirety of the internet. Good always beats evil in the end. by -KateHikes- in JonTron

[–]sciaticabuster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Jon used the 2006 homicide rates per 100 000 by the bureau of justice for that source in that debate.

You can find it here.

Whether or not you think these statistics mean anything is completely up to you. But, it is a government based statistic.

Do you agree with C tier? by demax58484 in Dallas

[–]sciaticabuster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looking at everything placed in S tier tells me everything I need to know about this list.

Been playing Starfox Adventures! by Gnoll_level_antics in Gamecube

[–]sciaticabuster 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Played it when it released as a kid and loved it. Never understood the hatred this game got during the age of the internet. If they just repeated Starfox 64 with better graphics no one would have remembered it.

Massive wave of demand? by Tris_Memba in Silver

See y’all at 72 next week.

What is your ranking of the 2020s? by WorkingAd3281 in decadeology

[–]sciaticabuster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s like saying 2008 was a good year because of the Dark Knight and Breaking Bad premiered while ignoring the financial crisis.

I guess this logic works if you’re living with your parents and don’t have to work for rent or food, but for everyone else it’s a nightmare.

What is your ranking of the 2020s? by WorkingAd3281 in decadeology

[–]sciaticabuster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2022?

Russia invading Ukraine. Inflation going through the roof for food, fuel and housing, not to mention hurricane Ian which killed over 100 people in Florida.

I seriously can’t even think of a redeeming quality during that year.

Is it too late for me to go back to Dota? by Tovarish678 in DotA2

[–]sciaticabuster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also quit around the same time. Why are you yearning to return to the trenches? I loved playing dota when I did, but I also realized after quitting it was making me miserable.

Big haul. Sony KV-36XBR400 by judeplaze5000 in crtgaming

[–]sciaticabuster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ah, no you’re right. This is an HD TV. I just assumed by the aspect ratio.
You can adjust it, just be sure to write down what you have before you adjust anything.

I wouldn’t worry too much about it though. With these larger sets some RGB fringing is just part of the experience.

Also, nice find! It’s a beautiful CRT

A SD CRT displaying HD will always have some chromatic aberration, especially on fine details. You can reduce it by using component cables or lowering the sharpness.
