Things you recently bought or got

[slaphappygamer]

Just bought this badass scooter. The guy I got it from, I fixed his other scooter and he was super stoked I fixed it. 3 other bike shops couldn’t figure it out. Anyway, he gave he a good deal on this one. It’s a few years old (2020 Apollo Pro) but the battery is good and I know he never fast charged it. This is a 38MPH big boy scooter. It’s got dual 1000w motors with a 52v 23ah LG battery and pulls me up hills with ease. I have this limited to 15MPH (I’m too young to die).

I have obtained a small selection of peak US cuisine. Largely because I wanted to make a proper rootbeer float but the importer had some other crap for sale I never had before.

I haven't had a snowball in years.

I haven't had a snowball in years.

Me neither, or even twinkies.

-Pokemon Yellow for 13€, which I thought was ok, will print a new Label though.
-8bitdo Arcade stick for 30€, seller said the P1 and P2 buttons don't work, but otherwise it is in really good condition. Seems like an easy enough fix.

I've considered getting twinkies instead of snoballs, but those looked more interesting. We do have sponge cakes here as well, quite a few of them actually, but those pink balls aren't exactly something we have anything equivalent to. They're interesting.

The root beer is weird as hell, though. I can't say anything comes even close to that flavor profile over here. We have a few soda pops with herbal ingredients, but they're not really close to that either. I'm not sure if I like it, but I can definitely see why people would like that as a basis for floats, I'm pretty sure it'll go really well with the ice cream I've got waiting for it tomorrow.

No idea when I'll try a poptart, but those things will outlast the rapture so I'm not in a hurry.

Oh that's actually really cool, I've been thinking of getting one myself for when I'm working from home. Any general impressions (especially about how loud it is)? And if it is decent, which one is it? It's been surprisingly hard to find reliable sources on which ones are good lol

I haven’t even played with it other than to turn it on and update it. I’m also doing a 2Tb SSD swap and I’m waiting on it to arrive. But while I waited I figured I would at least get Steam OS updated before I clone it to the new drive.

But it's as loud as a normal treadmill, and biggest downside is that you cant levitate the belt

I couldn't resist and got the other controller as well.

And the root beer float with barqs, and a muffin.

Definitely an interesting taste profile.

Won a $50 gift card to a site I buy Gundam kits from and I had enough point to get a $50 coupon code from them, so essentially I had a $100 gift card. So I bought a MG Strike Rouge (Ootori Unit) Ver RM. The total was $100.84, with shipping. I wasn't looking to get any kits rn, cause I have like 20 kits on my backlog, but for $0.84 I'll get it.

Little bit disappointed now, received both today and it turns out:

• Pokemon yellow has the lamest savestate ever
• The 8bitdo Arcadestick is basically brand new and they probably just never bothered to configure the P1/P2 buttons. It works absolutely fine
