Paid a total of €250 for all of this. Got most of these except Castlevania AoS, Yooka Laylee and that DS Star Wars game through my work. I paid €70 for Aria of Sorrow mint. ^_^

Aka I bought wait too many games again... >_< I have like 670 games in total...
So expensive! But Aria of Sorrow is such a good game...
I should play it again.
 
I bought a 65 inch Vizio tv , with 4k and hdr ; Its a shame that it doesnt allow subtitiles in any format srt , sst , etc.
So when i put a movie o the usb , it has no option for it .
So now i am looking for a fast program to hardcode the subtitiles in the movie .
 
Actual games for once

Now I have code veronica again (had it for the dreamcast, long since traded away) I am only missing the most recent and 4.

There was a whole pot of GBA, gb/gbc and even a few gamegear games there but it was all shovelware save for those, and maybe the Japanese copy of yu gi oh. Bonus is prince of persia should link up with the gamecube version which I also have and get some niceties.
£5 for the GBA games, £2 for Code Veronica.

Usual mountain of books, tools, electronics parts and the like

Rather nicely the things on the drill stand at the back are concrete grinding discs, normally quite expensive but it seems despite knowing what they were the guy wanted to get rid of them.

Some might wonder if the best get there was the 1883 Knowledge Illustrated magazine of science, a good potential choice (several excerpts coming to a funny pictures thread near you soon) but the BS 1574 1958 leaflet is the best. Now you know the precise dimensions cotter pins are supposed to be should they be conforming to that standard.

Mind you it also faced some stiff competition from BS 3478: 1962
Specification for drawing office reference tables and benches.

If the Vizio TV is (like my google search suggests) an Android TV, why don't you just install MX Player.
It works fine in my Sony Bravia, and it gets subs inside MKVs, as well as srt, sst, ssa, ass, including even subs animations like those popular years ago in fansubbed anime content.

...you could use Handbrake to hardcode subs, but I think if what I said above works, it is a better solution...

Snickerdoodles. My wife hates when I eat all the cookies so I started to make some myself. Earlier, I made chocolate chip cookies. Now these. My daughters favorite kind.

Moar Bad apple?
This time from authentic hardware!
Emulation is nice, but it has too many quirks that I notice. Skipped CPU cycles (aka, sound skips, offbeat, etc) bothered me a lot after I ran the same stuff on the actual machine.
Since I am a potato when it comes to hardare modding, I figured I'd just buy a premodded machine instead.
 
Bought the Capcom x Sega humble bundle. Paid the $15 for all the games. I always get the PlayStation bundles when they have them.

I always set it so that all the money goes to charity. I hate the fact that it's for charity but if you don't select where the money goes, more or less its 90% of it goes to the developers, 8% goes to humble bundle and 2% goes to the charities.

If it's for charity all the money or atleast the majority of it should go to them and not the developers and humble bundle.

This dank thing. Yes, it’s small to most of you - I’m very small for my age, at the bottom of the class in size. It’s genetics (I have a very short mom).
