Got my 3rd monitor today

Tiny monitor for Discord looks neat!
Also is that Windows 7 or Windows 10 with a Windows 7 taskbar that has the weather thing from W10?

I was thinking to remove the 27inch monitor and stay with the small one and the 24inch curved one (the one on the left)

And nope! It's Classic Start. I don't really like Win 10's start menu so I wanted to stick with Windows 7's.

The only time I've had cbd was gummies. I don't think they were all that strong, cause they did nothing.

I once used gummies as an anti-depressant. Never worked.

Having two monitors is great.

What is that tiny monitor and where did you get it? It honestly looks like it would be helpful for discord or twitch chat.

There you go. It's neat for what it does.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails into Reverie - Limited Edition -​

 

[RAHelllord]

Got a music album today, to be played on a C64. The bonus EP also contains a little program for the C64 as the first track.

And then I also had to get a C64C to actually play the thing. Complete with floppy drive, cassette drive, a mouse, and a joystick.
Just needs a good clean and likely a small amount of refurb to ensure it works perfectly and then it's ready for a life on the high seas like it's 1986.

I got a flat. I now get to join the ranks of the English southerner.

It has a big mirror wardrobe.

I like how most of my purchases nowadays are just Switch and PS4 games, but I straight up refuse to pay for scalper prices for retro games.

Whoops, was missing this one as well!

Bought Desperdados Wanted Dead or Alive & Race 07 on Steam as the sale ends on July 13. Pretty cheap and want to play them so why not.

A while ago I bought this USB fan and it's surprisingly excellent. It has three speeds and it does its job nicely.

Ordered a second one for my computer desk.

AliExpress is great just as long as you're willing to wait 2-3 weeks.

I just ordered the Hyper Base Mix 5TB hard drive off of Amazon.

Supposedly it's a plug-and-play all-in-one retro gaming hard drive, pre-configured with over 63,000 games, with EmuStation and Launchbox ready to go out of the box.

Several videos on YouTube from well-known reviewers say it's pretty amazing, especially for the GameCube and PS2 libraries.

Hopefully it's everything it's cracked up to be when it arrives on Wednesday.

but this is just a normal Hard drive preloaded with ROMS and a custom EmulationStation? the emulation persé is made by the computer, Am I wrong?

For the wife, just arrive more hardware for his crafts:

And for me:

A new Bicycle card deck

And new chair pneumatic shaft:
(for this little rascal, did take 4 hours of this sunday to remove the old one from the chair, electric welder and big press involved!!!)

Yup. $229 isn't terrible for a 5TB USB 3.0 external drive, especially filled with pre-configured emulators and ROMs.

I am returning it, though. Even PSOne games run like shit on this thing. Saturn emulation is awful. It can barely run the VirtualBoy, and CPSIII was choppier than on my original HP Pavilion from 2010.

I have a Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 15 with an AMD Ryzen 5 5600H, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650, upgraded to 32GB of RAM, with a 2TB SSD intenal secondary drive. No way I shouldn't be able to run everything up to and including PS3 almost flat-out.

Went for a drive and filled up the truck. The feeling of driving is just so liberating and unique that I wish I learned/took my driver's license as soon as I was able to, but instead only at 30 (3 years ago) is when I got it.

I know there's people who buy their driver license though doing so they don't really learn the rules, laws, and how to drive and park properly (reminds me of my "brother" in law, but that's his problem he bought it and he might as well buy for his wife and kids ).



This guy kinda looks like DeSantis for some reason to me.

[HippyJ3]

Got my 3rd batch of 5 PS4 games (Granblue Fantasy VS, Tekken 7, Yakuza Like A Dragon, Tales of Vesperia Definitive Edition and Ni no Kuni II Revenant Kingdom), plus 2 Brand New and Sealed Copies Super Robot Wars 30 during a midnight to 3 am sale, it was 6 dollars per game at the time so I snagged the opportunity
