it was a fine episode on its own but it feels pretty flat when I’m looking forward to grown up earn, al, and darius. the kids did a good job but they are obviously not their older counterparts. young al did nail the mannerisms though.

it wasn’t.

X2 and x3 use a custom chip that would be need to be cloned, which may well push the price past that of an original cart anyway.

also should be combined with this

This is somewhere between Batmobile and the old MASK cartoon vehicles and I approve.

kinja is a trash fire but ultimately your adblocker is breaking the layout (me too, no judgment). they could fix it but there’s not motivation to do so for people they can’t push ads on.

gtfo with that north dakota propaganda. nobody wants to be there.

I always look but I’ve never found one. Unless you’re working a job where you’re handling change it’s pretty unlikely to find a stray at this point. The only one I’ve ever seen in the wild is the one my dad’s had on his key ring for the last 50 years.

I saw a contestant lose a round with “Francis Ford Coppola” spelled out on the board by putting the emphasis on the middle of “Coppola” instead of the beginning.

How do barcades in the USA work when they have consoles set up? Like you rent a booth with a new xbox or old NES or whatever. Are they breaking the law doing that?

It’d be nice if the “prefer this player” option did anything. I regularly run across good random teammates who I’d rather play with than a complete unknown and I mark them as preferred. Almost without fail they end up on the other team the very next game.

challenge: find former pimp my ride vehicles on craigslist

i found this wagoneer a couple weeks ago

Dave and Steve’s Video Game Explosion, which was a show for about 5 minutes in the early 2000's, spent a good chunk of their air time talking shit about their sponsor Sobe. Honestly I think that’s kept me from ever trying it.

how do you keep it balanced

it’s a tax dodge of some sort, i don’t remember exactly. none of those cars ever set tire in montana.

is he running that on real hardware? how do they integrate the stream overlay with the times like that?

I hate this scene. Watching them process what happened is fascinating, but its super grating to hear people repeating the same word over and over, and it completely blows immersion when portrayed against the rest of a very grounded series.

not likely. they made a point of recording the pcb swap between the DK run (source of the dispute) and the immediately following DK jr run. That video is apparently a smoke show as it’s been identified as the same dk jr board being taken out and re-installed.

he’s sitting at 12. it’s an integrity issue at this point.
