the person who conceived it will not release it, sure, but for me it was an egg of columbus situation. After the first one did, others will copy and succeed. I believe we're near (as a hwfly user, I don't need it, but I'll enjoy to see more people in the atmosphere wagon).

I love playing games, but as a university student I can't bring my gaming PC between my dorm back every year. That's when I heard about this awesome cool product called Google Stadia. It's like Netflix for your games! Google keeps your games on their servers and lets you play them wherever you are! All you need is a controller to connect and any device with a web browser. Awesome, right? My controller came today.

Flipping it over we can see what comes in the box.
  • Stadia Controller (for controlling the games)
  • Chromecast Ultra (so you can stream the games to your TV)

I don't know why more people aren't talking about this. I love the concept. It's so convenient. It's like their tagline says. "One place for all the ways we play" (emphasis mine). Except it's not one place. It's any place! Now even I can enjoy AAA quality videogames from the comfort of my dorm room without needing to drag a big and bulky gaming PC here when I move in and out each summer.

I'm going to finish up some work and then try it out on some Destiny 2 later. You guys let me know if you would like to see me post pictures of the controller and maybe a little review here later once I've unboxed it and tried it out :)

Bought two extra Nintendo component cables, got 'em for a good price.

Strangely enough, on YouTube it's very hard to find a comparison where the YouTuber actually uses the Nintendo component cable because practically all use everything else (Wii2HDMI, Retro-Bit Cable, HD Retrovision, Mayflash Wii2HDMI, etc). Even on the web I can't seem to find genuine comparisons that used the cable itself, rather it's comparisons using the cheap $5 cables.

I get people like to buy cheap stuff and I do too, but these cables/adapters are generally of low quality and will at some point disappoint or annoy you. I remember using a $5 PS2 component cable and during a race on NFS ProStreet (love this game on PS2 and other consoles, it's an awesome simcade) the screen would go black so I'd have to pause the game whenever it'd happen. :-/

When I bought my orig v1 Switch years ago, I give my New 3DS XL to my nephew. Then, I didn't hack the 3DS at all, just had bunch of bought shop games, and a few carts. Well last weekend while over visiting with him, I asked about the 3DS and he said he hasn't touch it in months, (he has Switch now too) so I took it back.
And boy am I glad I did...I had no idea what you can do with these nowdays. CFW, Retroarch, and tons of homebrew. I almost forgot how fun this thing is. Don't get me wrong, I love my Switch, but the 3DS was a great device. Fits perfectly in my pocket, for on the go, with little to no worries of breaking it, unlike the Switch. Yea the finger button placement is def smaller, gives me cramps if play for long, but still I love this thing. I think I'm gonna keep it in my collection from here on. I'm gonna order a new battery for it, just because, been few years on this one. Ok thanks for reading. Game On! :yay3ds:

the 3DS is really amazing, it has variety, quantity, hidden gems, virtual console. Also, super CFW friendly and it have full compatibility with the huge DS library. I love that thing.

Got some connectors for my ebike. The 3 phase wires were connected by 15a rated connectors. I didn’t think about their rating when I installed them. Then I searched and learned why my phase wires were getting hot. I was running 25a through them. These connectors are my weak point. The new MT60 connectors are rated for 100a. AND all three wires are in the same connector. It’ll be a bit slimmer too!

I also learned that my phase wires are too long and is adding unnecessary resistance, creating more heat. I’ll be shortening them as much as I can.
