Quite pleased with this GCN controller.

It's comfortable, lightweight, and no loose analog sticks (a known issue with third party GCN controllers). The d-pad is big and usable, another good aspect of it.

It is true that when pressing the red button (B) you'll unintentionally touch the camera stick, but not a big deal. So if you're after an affordable GCN controller, this is pretty good.

had one of them good quality until you stick it into an sd2 vita also these cards work on MX4SIO's (PS2 mem card adapter for loading PS2 iso's) I have a sandisk now (1tb) works great on my SD2vita and switch

Sucks it's only FAT32 so games larger than 4GB have to be split.

Oh, I also RAR'd all my PS2 ISOs over 1.5TB and with WinRAR's Best Compression it came down to only 600GB. Of course, to use the ISOs they'll have to be extracted.

You can also try 7zip, works pretty well..... its also faster

I use 7-Zip for mostly extracting files, WinRAR doesn't do it well for me.

It's probably better and compress even more, but I really like WinRAR and completely move on from it isn't easy (nostalgia). Have been using it for over 10-15 years.

I want to build a new gaming pc but for now my current pc, which is about 8 years old, needs a good clean and thermal paste reapplied so I ordered some Corsair tm30 thermal paste. I've never used it before, but i heard it was decent.

Used in very good condition.

I'll eventually open it up, change the analog sticks to Xbox One sticks (assuming they fit), and have the cable coming out the top.

The top d-pad was a bit dirty, but nothing that cleaning won't fix.

Got this today.

I paid off a debt in October 2022 a sister of mine (thought she'd be responsible) made on my old Amex account (it was sold to a debt collector), and today I signed up for a new one which I was accepted. I was worried I'd be rejected, thankfully that didn't happen.

Might be weird to say, but I actually miss using it and I always pay everything in time.

Don't do nor fall for this, though:



What do a million points even mean? Exactly.

Sounds like a project worth documenting here - at least some pics if it happens.

I'm guessing he earns point for ever dollar he spends on the Credit card, but that would that probably take forever.

Like my credit card has 0.5% cash back on anything and 1%cash back if I use it to buy food.
So if I buy a hamburger combo and it cost $10 I would get $0.10 back. No mater how much you spend its not much money. I would literally need to spend $1000 on food to get $10 back in a Month.

The watch i am super excited to get as i have been wanting a Galaxy Watch for a while, and I REALLY want my Pinecil although it seems to have got caught up in postage hell and the package tracker has been showing "your item has been processed through a facility in SHENZEN EMS, China." since the 15th of the month, and i wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't show up until like February.

I bought this at a Japanese craft store. It was labeled as a sake cup, but I've been using it for coffee.

Seems pretty big for sake.
