    Comment by 'FireEmblemGuy' in 'Windows 7; Jesus Fuck since when was it THIS bad'

    @Arecaidian Fox Well, the good news is that the Fall update for Windows 10 fixes the VRAM bug, at the very least; if you've been having any other Skyrim issues on W10 I don't think I've been seeing them on my notebook.

    Yeah, I'd definitely do some checks on the disk itself. Sounds like one of my old laptop HDDs before it bit the dust. 7200RPM doesn't mean a whole lot either if the drive has a massive request load, is running at SATA-I speeds, or is spending too much time correcting for errors. While Windows 7...

    Comment by 'FireEmblemGuy' in 'IDEs; The Solution to a non-problem'

    For small projects like singular Python scripts, obviously an IDE isn't going to help much. But in managing larger projects with hundreds of source files? Hundreds or thousands of lines of code in each of them, and a build script that measures into pages? Yeah, you're not gonna want to manage...

    No <$5 collection is complete without a copy of Cory in the House. 3/10.

    Comment by 'FireEmblemGuy' in 'Amazon buyers are kind of shit.'

    Honestly, I've been selling on Amazon for three years now and still haven't garnered any feedback, positive or otherwise. It's frustrating because of how prominently it's displayed; now that the new trend is for fake sellers to spam fake listings in hopes of driving prices down, I can't reliably...

    happy new year

    hope everyone enjoys 2017; in most cases you'd expect it couldn't be worse than last year, but with the full ramifications of Brexit and Trump who really knows. To survival and prosperity!

    Comment by 'FireEmblemGuy' in 'M5 flashcard'

    There were, of course, also M3 flashcards as well. I don't know why a release would've been tagged with both R4 and M5, unless it was to specify to someone that the ROM was European and R4-compatible. But the really confusing thing here is that it's the end of 2016 and people are still using eMule.

    Comment by 'FireEmblemGuy' in 'So I bought that cheapo RCA Windows tablet from Walmart'

    Nah, the Atom tablets all have impossibly half-assed attempts at UEFI to support Secure Boot on a 32-bit system. Running, much less installing, Linux is nigh upon impossible; even dual-booting Android generally only works if the manufacturer has a special BIOS setup.

    Comment by 'FireEmblemGuy' in 'PSA: Don't use Gateway's arm9loaderhax installation tools'

    Serious question: What even is the benefit of using Gateway at this point? Has there even been one in the last year or so? Only thing I can really think of is an unwillingness to potentially flag your systems' ticket database with non-market CIA installs.

    FEG's Tropical Hell mixed drink recipe

    Sorry if this is a mess, this is the drunkest I've been in a while. Mix: 2/5 Banana+ orange+ pineapple juice blend 3/5 Mtn Dew/ Mello Yello Add grain alcohol (everclear/diesel) to taste (2 shot per 12-16 oz is my preferred blend) Add 1-2 cubes ice to cool Lightly stir and enjoy

    Looking at flash memory prices makes me feel old.

    Just over half a decade ago, I bought my first DS flashcart from Dealextreme. I'd been debating between an R4 (an original R4, not one of the countless clones on the market today) and a card with internal memory called the N-Card. Both were around the same price (about as much as a new DS game...

    Comment by 'FireEmblemGuy' in 'Got my 3DS today'

    Yeah, TotA is at the top of my buy list, outside of first-party games. I actually hadn't taken too close a look at Kid Icarus, but I suppose I have to now.

    Got my 3DS today

    A Cosmo Black Ambassador unit, with Ridge Racer 3D, Call of Duty: WaW, Metroid Prime Hunters, and Ninja Gaiden DS. Everything came complete and near mint, the Club Nintendo registration for the 3DS hadn't even been used, and all it cost was $150 plus the remainder of my Amazon gift card balance...

    Comment by 'FireEmblemGuy' in 'I hate being the family technical support person.'

    It's the same around my house, even though my mom's been using computers for more than 15 years and my dad's a former software engineer/computer builder. What's worse, my dad hasn't been in the computer business for close to twenty years, hasn't done much of anything other than buying a prebuilt...

    Comment by 'FireEmblemGuy' in 'InterAct Video Game System'

    I love these sort of things, although the 'direct-from-China' ones are better. Stuff you find on eBay or such that's a controller with a (S)NES-on-a-chip built in. Sometime's you'd even get direct ROMS with less than even the title screen changed. One of the best was an 8-bit DDR-style dance...

    Comment by 'FireEmblemGuy' in 'My innocence'

    According to Google's cache, it was a blog post. Doesn't mean it was a particularly good idea in the first place, though.

    Comment by 'FireEmblemGuy' in 'Worst game ever'

    Naw, man, why you gotta be like that? Cruis'n World was pretty good for the time. Certainly very dated now, and the physics are very stiff, but still a good way to kill a few hours. Not sure if I ever did unlock all the extra cars, though. Me, I hated Turok: Evolution for the GameCube. Each of...

    Not entirely sure what the spy is holding in the second image, but it was taken while on a Randomizer server, anyways.

    Actually, for now it's just more of Valve trolling us. It'll appear as both 'her' and 'him' for Pyro. I tried taking screenshots but I don't know where they save to.
