    Wii U GamePad upgrade - adventures with MOSFETs

    I have back buttons - A&B on the left and X&Y on the right side. I have tapped into the test points that sudomod's evertith labelled as being for the d-pad directions. I did some probing with my multimeter and some aluminium foil to bridge the socket pins and didn't find any points with...

    Comment by 'emcintosh' in 'Forcing myself to read sheet music while learning!'

    I learned piano with standard notation and finger number annotations 1 (thumb) to 5 (pinky) (and still use these numbers when playing melodeon where the thumb is rarely used). Your problem may get easier if you use other sheet music, where you can make your own notes about changes of hand...

    Purple Pikmin Wario

    Purple Pikmin are clearly Wario - rotund, slow but strong, purple, with distinctive hair and they attack by slamming into the ground.

I like that my new Intuos Art tablet can double as a giant trackpad, but miss some features of the previous model - the eraser on the top of the pen and the pen stand. The Intuos has a...

    My hearing aid seems to have a tiny metroid in it (•:)€.

    If I bring my hand too close, it lets out the distinctive shriek.

    Пусть солнце всегда в сердце! Have you found the patch to simulate light level changes with button combinations? https://github.com/Prof9/Boktai-Solar-Sensor-Patches/blob/master/readme.txt Otherwise I would recommend running Boktai in mGBA (I have light level changes mapped to the n3DS...

    I hate ordering stuff online if I can go buy it somewhere close to me, and everywhere anymore will give you a discount only if you order it online, bs. Should be a discount if I go pick it up, not order online.

    Makes it easy for incompetent restaurant staff that don't know how to hear an order
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Mostly for big purchases, I want it in my hands before I pay. Like a tv, I trust picking it up myself, before I'd trust it being sent thru mail/delivery. (Broken screen, etc) But yea if I can order online, then pickup at store is ok, but not all places offer that.

    Most people that haul big tvs have empty trucks or know enough not to set it face down
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Then I gotta send it back and wait another week or two. I have a pickup truck, with a extended cab, so no prob for me.

    Most manufacturers pack it well enough where they aren't that dumb to let it happen
