  1. This is kind of old news, but I thought people might find it amusing. Login • Instagram WWW.INSTAGRAM.COM Welcome back to Instagram. Sign in to check out what your friends, family & interests have been capturing &... Someone ported Flappy Bird to the Dreamcast VMU, he has also made a few other games, see the instagram link.
  2. I am good (or used to be good) at Capcom and SNK 2D fighters. I placed 3rd in Milwaukee in a Street Fighter III 3rd Strike tournament. Some other ones I'm good at are Super Street Fighter II Turbo, Street Fighter Alpha 3 and on the SNK side, Garou Mark of the Wolves, Samurai Shodown 5 SP, Fatal Fury. That's SFIII 3rd Strike which is my main game. Here's all the fatalities in Samurai Shodown 5: Zetsumei Shori. Enjoy.
  3. Have you tried running GPU passthrough in Virtualbox? I haven't used it for years since I main Mint as my daily driver OS (Cinnamon), but VirtualBox is pretty good and free still afaik.
  4. Hey hon, hope you have a good time here. You might be interested in a few threads, see my signature.
  5. You might be thinking of the Sega Saturn, the Dreamcast's predecessor... Yes, Daytona USA was awful on it. 30 fps and no antialiasing. Afaik DC arcade ports were identical to the arcade or very close. See Sega Naomi. Yes, it was more powerful than the Dreamcast but Sega purposely scaled the games back a bit on the arcade versions to have them also run on the Dreamcast.
  6. Sega Dreamcast was a great era for Sega and the first console capable of running arcade games 1:1. It didn't have ports of arcade games, it had full on arcade games identical to the arcade like Crazy Taxi and many Capcom and SNK 2D fighters. And yes, I've known about the Dreamcast/Xbox successor thing for years. Sega actually released quite a few games for the Xbox that are really good like Panzer Dragoon Orta, Crazy Taxi 3, and Shemmue 2. I'm unsurprised someone did this. The Xbox came stock with 64MB RAM I believe, and if you're good enough at soldering you can remove the stock chip and replace it with a 128MB chip. People have been doing this already for years to allow soft modded Xboxes to play back 720p video streams in XBMC (Xbox media center- what turned into Kodi). I have a soft modded Xbox myself and used to watch 480p anime on it, until I upgraded to a Raspberry Pi 3b with Kodi. The Xbox was filled with emulators and other "stuff" but unfortunately, it's clock capacitor is dead and that's basically CMOS for the thing, meaning if I turn the thing on I just get the dashboard instead of my modded XBMC interface. It also has a broken DVD drive that is stuck and won't open, preventing me from reinstalling the hack by loading a glitched savegame in Tom Clancy Splinter Cell. So I'd need to fix the DVD drive and clock capacitor before I could get it back to running the soft mod. *Shrug* I have a retropie with emulators and it's way more portable, can run it at 1080p if I want, it is way smaller and lighter. Still cool someone got a game running at 720p that isn't supposed to but this RAM mod people were doing in 2004.
  7. We use Google Fi as well, pio. Our bill with US Cellular and 2 phones was like $160 a month, with Fi it's like $70. Can't comment on the hotspot thing, as I'm never in a situation where I need one.
  8. Interesting thread. Subbed. Good luck pio
  9. Vanilla Mint Chai RISHI-TEA.COM Luxuriously textured and inviting, Vanilla Mint Chai combines the sweetest grade of Saigon cinnamon, rich cocoa and... 1 lbs. This tea is awesome with honey and helps my pain with the cinnamon and mint.
  10. Well, I have a nice rig imo and so does my fiancee, but I would potentially be seeking expert knowledge if I were to get into water cooling my rig fully. I kinda know the principles and what you need in a loop, but I've never done it. I've decided it's just not doable for me with my pain issues, as well as the size of my case and room in it. Props to seemingly everyone here and my friends here who all water cool. If I were going to water cool my system, I would definitely come here and ask for a parts list etc. as opposed to looking elsewhere or asking elsewhere for that information. You are percent right. EHW is the best.
  11. Hey, so I'm wearing my white EHW tee with the simple logo. It seems to be water proof? I spilled some tea on my shirt, not very much, but enough that on a cotton shirt it would soak in and make a small brown circle or something. I was like oh sonuva dammit but... Instead, it ended up on the shirt and made it wet but did not soak in to the fabric, it sorta rolled off and brushed off and was immediately dry with no stain. I haven't looked at the store for the material or confirmed that they are water proof, I already know they are 100% polyester from looking before but yeah. Really nice material for these shirts and good for me and drinking my daily tea, since I'm an idiot and spill it on my shirt frequently.
  12. You beat me to it, pio. I was going to quote and say the same thing. Yeah, we have a great number of dedicated users who all love the site and support it. Additionally, having dealt with you a lot privately and being former staff (which I accepted long ago now), I can confidently say that we have the best admin on Earth It's warm enough now where I live that I can wear the t-shirts I have. I will be wearing them to physical therapy, as well as restaurants. I tell people the url and what the site is about regularly because I want to see it grow (like in the Growing the Site thread). Great site with a great admin and a ton of greatly experienced, talented users in many ways.
  13. Since everyone is saying use GSAT and I agree, here is a little imformation and help for you since you're new to it. GSAT stands for Google Stressful Application Test. It's what Google uses to stress test their servers. To get it, open a terminal and type: sudo apt install stressapptest To run it once it's installed, copy and paste this into your terminal: stressapptest -s XXXX -M 29000 --pause_delay 9999999999 -W --max_errors 1 XXXX seconds to run. 3600 is an hour and if you can pass an hour you are probably stable, though I did 4 hours on my current RAM OC. Hope this helps.
  14. My brother said he should finally have his room at the house he shares with other people. Currently he's in a small space, a very small room and has no room for his stuff, consoles, or PC which is all in storage. As opposed to the Razer Kishi, he asked for a retropie and I can just write my backup of mine to an SD card for him. He also already has a Rock Candy wired Xbox 360 controller he can use with it. So that's what I am going to do instead.
  15. It is mass produced, but it's fantastic. No lie. It's made by Sysco, which is a huge restaurant supplier. Sysco Shop SHOP.SYSCO.COM I have the Stereo Echo already, and mom doesn't like it. So I need suggestions for a medium roast, arabica, columbian coffee that is cheaper. Also, the 2 lbs. bag of Stereo Echo is like $50 USD for us (minimum, it might be more, I'd have to ask the fiancee). We have some already and its lasting. I don't go anywhere generally, I'm a shut in with poor social skills, so all that going to coffee shop/getting to "know" people/ asking for recommendations is not something I'm able to do. Not to mention we don't really have a coffee scene here, it's all chains. Please just suggest something similar to a medium roast, 100% columbian arabica coffee for much cheaper. She's trying to find one she likes that she can drink every morning and she's gotten to be very picky in old age... Thanks
  16. Hey @ENTERPRISE Any chance we could get t shirts with the design I made that you're using on the desk mats? The site logo, with icons underneath that have a gradient. On a white shirt. I'd buy one of these if they were available.
  17. I am very familiar with retroarch as well as EmulationStation as they are both on my custom retropie. Did not know they were available for Android. Thanks. Thanks, will do in October for my brother.
  18. Hey @UltraMegacan you please post a link for me to the controller thing you have for Smartphone gaming? I'm thinking of getting one for my brother for his birthday. Also, considering I know virtually nothing about emulation on Smartphones, what's the best PSX emu and best SNES emu? Hopefully ones that are free and adless. Thanks buddy.
  19. Hey @Slaughtahouse, are you familiar with Citavo coffee? Our local Italian restaurant we go to serves it after dinner and it's fantastic. We asked the waitress what it was and she showed us. We ordered some and I guess it's a restaurant supply company, but it was $75 for 24 2oz packets, enough to make one 12 cup pot. We are interested in something similar (but much cheaper)for my mom to drink every morning, so I thought I'd ask you. On the package it says 100% Columbian and 100% arabica. We want something that tastes similar. No fruity or nutty notes or anything, just strong coffee. Thanks bud.
  20. Great Foldathon as usual, everyone! Thanks to @damricand @firedfly for running it! Thanks for the prizes, too, @damric!
