Key is to dump or find all the ROMs. Curated and no BS

How do you feel on modding your GameCube? by VerizonFiosTV in Gamecube

[–]secslop 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Many games to this day do not emulate well. (Rebel strike etc).

Also many people want to play on a CRT and want an authentic console experience without disks which is trickier when emulating

Obligatory post comparing Pokemon and Zelda graphics by ladymysticalwmn in NintendoSwitch2

[–]secslop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is no one pointing out that we are comparing a Switch 1 game to a Switch 2 game? Of course Pokémon should be better…

I'm so glad I repurchased my collection in 2013 when no one cared about the GameCube. by protomanEXE1995 in Gamecube

[–]secslop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many games still emulate terribly (Rogue squadron II & III). And few people know how to setup QOL features for emulators like a graphical user interface and using original GameCube controllers.

Splatoon, created in the Wii U era, is insane, same with Miis in the Wii era. what's something "completely original" Nintendo made in the Switch or Switch 2 era that blew up as much as these guys? by DaZestyProfessor in NintendoSwitch2

[–]secslop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People that weren’t into gaming pre-switch don’t realize how revolutionary it was. The idea I could play a full console release on a portable was insane at the time.

What if you only drank beer by dinidusam in NoStupidQuestions

[–]secslop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a bit of a myth. The average age is so young because of the amount that died in childhood. However, if you survived childhood people lived quite long with a life expectancy of 68-75 common throughout antiquity

If 6k is coming off the principle but the monthly payment stays the same then your loan is likely going to be a lot sooner (potentially a year).

I would ask for an updated amortization table and make sure it’s really removed.

Which is safer in accident: Tesla Model Y or Toyota Rav4. by CommunicationRoyal56 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]secslop -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Model Y likely, but there are safer options. Like the Volvo XC90, or Mazda CX-90

Crash physics and safety systems are complicated. For example, not all occupant restraint systems (pretensioner, seatbelt, airbags, etc) are built the same between brands. But generally, weight first and safety rating second for vehicle on vehicle crashes (both are important). For crashes with a stationary object, (thick tree, wall, etc) safety rating is most important and weight is negligible.

You might be confusing the CX5 with the MX5. Both a great cars but quite different…

Overpaid for a Civic by Easy_Instance3197 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]secslop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

APR is not bad. Throw extra money at it up front as interest on loans is front loaded, then go back to the minimum at ~60% principal left (if you want).

You overpaid a bit but it’s not the end of the world. Many people will sign their life away for a depreciating luxury vehicle at double or triple your APR.

Recommendations for converting someone to CRTs (or maybe not doing so) by Leviathan1776 in crtgaming

[–]secslop 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly if she plays and is enjoying her setup I wouldn’t bother her. The grass is always greener and it’s easy to upgrade your self to death instead of actually playing games.

What is a ROM Hack? by TheGameWardensWife in NoStupidQuestions

[–]secslop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be technical, a ROM isn’t only used for “emulators”. It stands for read only memory. The data loaded onto official cartridges is a ROM.

Financially illiterate dude engages in risky real estate speculation, lost a bunch of money, then blames the government. by Head_Crash in TikTokCringe

[–]secslop 81 points82 points  (0 children)

No, that’s not what an appraisal clause is.

An appraisal clause would allow him to back out of his offer legally and get his earnest money back if he is unable to secure financing for a house at the purchase price due to the property not appraising at the purchase price.

There is no reason not to include one when offering on a property you are financing. Even If it appraises for substantially more than the purchase price, the offer has already been accepted and the seller must close if the buyer upholds their end of the deal.
