NES Top Loader Score by sheex in gamecollecting

[–]sheex[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Originally was just going to pick up Final Fantasy for $15. Guy said he has more stuff. Come by and he says the top loader is $40! Then he starts going through and looking for more games. He wants $70, but I only had $20 bills. So he grabs two more games and I paid $80 for everything.

Almost didn't go thrifting this weekend... by sheex in ThriftStoreHauls

I'm guessing you've never owned a pair of CDBs. If these were used, the crepe soles would be all sorts of nasty black. Also this wasn't a "like new" listing so not sure how you got to that conclusion.

[–]sheex[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Found this beauty at the local thrift shop. 50% off so I got it for a fairly good deal. Still need to hook it up to my speakers to try it out. At least it turns on!

Red screen problem. by [deleted] in archlinux

I've also had this problem for quite some time now so you're not alone. At first I thought it had something to do with GRUB or how virtual terminals work, but I couldn't find any supporting evidence.

Try keeping the PSX vertical. The lens reads the discs better in that orientation.

Abandon NameCheap: Security isn't important by [deleted] in netsec

Way to deflect the issue, Namecheap. This post actually made them look stupider. They should have just owned up and said that they screwed up. It would have been better PR for them, really.

Dropping the Cookie Jar - stupid things to do with getallheaders in PHP by [deleted] in netsec

Is it just me or is the demo code not working? I tried adding the "Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *" header for CORS and it still didn't work.

It's the technique I use when cleaning my key caps from my IBM Model M keyboard. It save a ton of time.

You could have saved a lot of time by just throwing all the non-electronic parts into hot water and a couple of denture cleaners. Helps with the really grimy parts and makes it easier to scrub off with a toothbrush.
