Today I learned that "Grinder" is an actual word in English and not just an app name. I have no idea why they went with this app name now, and I guess it is better not know.
"Grinding" is a kind of dancing where you rub against your dance partner. Popular in clubs. So the name "Grindr" evokes (dirty) dancing and clubbing.

An Air Fryer, never bothered before because I primarily saw them being promoted as ‘similar and healthier than a fryer‘ (which I knew from trying someone else's was BS).

What finally sold me on one was finding out that they can cook quicker than an oven and uses less energy.

Considering that my oven can take a while to cook something, leaves the fan running to cool off and I primarily just cook for myself, the Air Fryer suddenly became a worthwhile purchase.

I haven’t actually used my oven in the few weeks I’ve had the Air Fryer.

I found a trashed Wii that came with mario kart wii at goodwill, had homebrew on it, put a new SD card in it with some gc games and a few emulators for it

Runs fine with nintendont, snes9x gx, genesis plus gx, Not64, and some VC wads i found (Img came from DSi cause i dont got no phone).

I should have been clearer, I’m indifferent to the health reasons, the BS was the ‘it’s similar to a chip fryer’ where as to me there was a night and day difference between the air fryer and the chip fryer for chips/fries.

The way I look at my Air Fryer is that it’s a replacement for my oven under most circumstances.

I went to the Canadian pet expo today and I bought for my best friend a hanging Coconut hide for his gecko, some food and metal food dishes for him. My other friend I got her the same food, 25x Wax worms and some metal food dishes.

For me I got 1000x meal worms, 500x black solder fly larva(supposed to be one of the best feeders) 50x waxworms, some spring tails, a magnetic feeding ledge and a male gargoyle gecko.

So now I have 2 gargoyle geckos, a leopard gecko, a pacman frog, 4 tarantulas, a cornsnake and a dog.

My birthday is next week, so decided to buy myself an early birthday present...

The speakers in my Mirage were god awful, dinky little 15W things that had terrible quality issues, especially at higher volumes. Replaced them with the above, now they sound great :yay: Much better quality, more neutral sound and doesn't distort at high volumes like the old ones so I'm happy with them.

Went and purchased the watchpoint pack for ow2, looking through it, its not a bad deal at all since we got more details from the last ow2 trailers, even when I saw it at first I was turned off by the $40 price like alot of people

premium pass season 1 - $10
2000 ow coins - $20 (a premium pass of a season costs 1000 coins or $10, so these coins will cover premium of season 2 and 3 also)
legendary version upgrade for ow1, a couple of exclusive legendary skins, and a unique player icon make up the rest of the last $10

  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
