My birthday present. :) You can't tell, but Thunderball (the one where Austin Powers got most of their material from) is on the TV in the background. The Beetlejuice DVD underneath was a Valentine's day gift btw.

Hopefully you have the ethernet option with that. Probably of no use now as you have USB but if you were collecting old PCMCIA crap you could have had some of my old PCMCIA ethernet adapters

Speaking of legacy ports a local computer shop was offloading https://www.amazon.de/LogiLink-UA00...008UG6CPS/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 for next to nothing so I have some gameport controller action going on. Sadly it is not yet working properly with my microsoft pad from a few weeks back, though I should probably fire up one of the 8 or so legacy machines + laptops I just pulled out of the attic and on one of those first. Making do with the buttons of my old Tiny (as in the computer company) joystick which is the same as http://szamitastechnika.vatera.hu/s...lvaso_joystick_tv_jatek_panel_2457536651.html but in white.
That said if it works the way I think it does I might have to go back as that could make for some nice interface things rather than messing with arduinos and teensy++ family chips.

and if we are going for true legacy crap then one of my parts bin finds was a boxed and still shrink wrapped intel pro 1000 f so as to have a legacy fibre ethernet card.

Bought Lego world's for ps4. It was $24 on amazon with prime. Also bought a new hdmi capture card. It's supposed to capture upto 4k. I paid $90 for it, so I really doubt it will.

I bought it to upgrade from my component cable capture card. It was a aver media dark crystal HD and it would only work with there capture program and would record to a weird format. I need to have a old version of Sony Vegas to work with the format (.ts)or use their crappy editing program.

Well, I got this old T20 lappy that I already bought a mini PCI ethernet card for.
The WLAN card is basically purely for quick downloading of files.
Games that I got on there are stored on me server so FTPing it via LAN is the better option ;p

I'm mainly using it for old Win 9x games that won't run on modern Windows.

Bought on amazon from zilla terrarium liner for my leopard gecko. it's basically a felt carpet substrate for the tank. It was $5.77. Bought some crickets for her.

Bought some shrimp pellets for my 2 Cory catfish, but the shrimp I have in the tank also eat it.

Bought 2 mountain dew Kickstart 1 black cherry (currently drinking it) and the other fruit punch. Also bought by mistake doritos spicy nacho when I wanted BBQ( still going to eat then)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea forgot bout trophies. They just silly to me. Just like the xbox achievements. Hey, to each they own tho.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It keeps players in touch with the game like a check list of things to do after they beat it
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa they ruined the gaming experience for me to be honest
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa Im not crazy about getting all of them, i feel like I have something to show for for the time put in
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa If you want to do rgh or 360 mod
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    does it matter if you update your 360 or not before trying is it advisable or not
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea I don't pay attention to them really. Or do I try to 100% a game. I just play till story ends/ or I get the girl!

    Going to the water park, see ya
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    You should update the 360 to newest dash before RGHing it yes. But not a big deal if you don't, you can install new dash/avatar updates after. It's just easier to do it auto online before, instead manual offline after.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Have fun @Xdqwerty. If you see a chocolate candy bar floating in the water, don't eat it!

    @BigOnYa I wanted to ask you about your experience with seeing south park. Most of the people a bit younger like my younger brother and cousins that are a few younger than me that saw kids found south park funny because of the curse words, kids at school, that seemed like liking the show on a very basic level.

    I could not quite have a in depth discussion of the show.

    How was it for you? As an adult. What did you find the most interesting part about it. Did you relate to the parents of the kids and their situations. Was it satires, the commentary on society. The references on celebrities' and pop culture.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I remember seeing the very first episode back in the day, and have watched every episode since. I used to set my VCR to record them even, shows how long ago.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just like any comedies really, and cartoons have always been a favorite of mine. Family guy, American Dad, Futurama, Cleveland Show, Simpsons - I like them all.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    South Park is great cause they always touch on relavent issues going on today, and make something funny out of it.

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa were you always up to date on the current events and issues of the time or were there issues that you first found out thru south park
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Most of the time yea I knew, I watch and read the news regularly, but sometimes the Hollywood BS stuff, like concerning actors slip by me. I don't follow most Hollywood BS (example: the Kardasians)

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa there were relevant issues before south park was made, that's why i think a south park prequel/spinoff would be great. Randy and his friends in their child hood
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, like them running in high school together, getting into stuff, and how they got hitched and had kids. And how the town of South Park was back then compared to now. That would be cool to see.
