Blog entries by Foxi4
Today marks two years, and although some personal circumstances prevent me from celebrating as I had planned, I would be remiss not to post a blog entry on the day of the event, or lead you to believe that I’m not keeping track of time. Besides being clever like a fox, I was also blessed with...

Well, here’s something, at least.
Whether you’re Christian or not, chances are you’ve heard the story of The Plagues of Egypt. 10 great disasters have struck the Pharoh and his subjects, each more severe than the last. Today we deal with out own plagues in many walks of life, and I have chosen to catalogue the ones we encounter...
And there we have it, ladies and gents! A full year has passed. We had our kicks and we had our laughs, now is the time to reminiscence. A full year, and it only felt like a day or two! No regrets. Today we celebrate the Banniversary, the first of its kind.
What's better to talk about...
Rewatched James Cameron's 1984 hit film "The Terminator" with the missus the other day for movie night and I can confirm that it is still the best love story ever caught on film. Totally holds up, if you can get over the janky stop motion and make-up in the latter parts of the film (Ultra HD...
Hey, remember when I had to upgrade my TV because the backlight has decided to commit sudoku? Well, I just happened to be gifted another dead TV, with the intention of having it repaired, but since the damage was beyond any kind of economic repairs, it was just left on my desk to rot while my...
I like to tinker with electronics, but I have a nasty habit of starting and never quite finishing my work. I figured I may as well dump those projects here - perhaps one day I'll motivate myself to finish them. Yeah, my workbench is messy - sue me. :P
Edit: A bit of a closer look at...
Let the Irishposting begin, may @x65943 have walls for the wind, and roofs for the rain, and a pint of Guinness to get pissed with!
Cheers! :grog:
Officially under Level 4 lockdown, stuck in the house yet again with most stores shuttered for pretty much the rest of the year. At least I have Night City to visit, I'mma go T-pose on some Tiger Claws.
If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, but make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, or, being lied about, don’t deal in lies, or, being hated, don’t give...
Black screen and power off after 10 seconds? Check. Paste so crusty you could use it as Play-doh? Check. X-clamp mounting screw so tight its thread was completely stripped? Check.
A little TLC later and another console from the dumpster was rescued - woo-hoo! I was expecting the power delivery...
My local Mickey D's has introduced the Triple Cheeseburger. That's the end of the service announcement, see y'all in the diabetes clinic.
Y'know how hot dog stands have those enormous sausages that stick out of each side of the bun? The ones that you can never find anywhere when doing groceries? Something dawned on me.
I grabbed two sausages, unwound the casing between them, squeezed the filling together to form one long sausage...
Tomorrow marks the 11th anniversary of me joining GBAtemp, so before the clock ticks over past midnight, I figured it'd be a good time to celebrate. From a chance visitor to humble forum troll, to Reporter, all the way to Global Moderator, what a journey it was! I've dedicated years of my life...
Imagine a scenario - you're watching something on YouTube as you're dozing off on the couch, the cat snuggles into you, the dog is fast asleep and your eyelids eventually turn into lead. You fall asleep, blissfully unaware that the TV is still on since safe shutdown mode is for wimps, and it's...
I spent the day with the missus celebrating our 11th anniversary by doing absolutely nothing at all, which was a welcome change from constantly being busy. Instead of working from early morning till late at night, we just sat on the couch, enjoyed each other's company and gorged on fast food...
- No one is chatting at the moment.

Usually when such a big title leaks the Temp will be the first to report about it (going off of historical reports here, Pokemon SV being the latest one I can recall seeing pop up here) -

I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.

I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)

I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.

I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
