That's a very pretty bike :3 I kinda want to get a racer, but it's hard to find racers with disc brakes that don't also come with wider/more treaded tires.

Depending on what system you're trying to emulate, it shouldn't be too much of a hassle to get it setup. Just avoid N64 and some/most PS1 roms and you'll be fine. Shoot me a PM if you need help getting it up and running. Along those lines, finally gave in and bought a Pi 2 to replace the B that I'm using for my daughter to use AirPlay with on her stereo.

Finally decided to go to an actual running store and have my feet/stride analyzed so I could buy some proper running shoes that actually work for me. Apparently I have a slight pronation so they recommended something with mild stability control. These felt awesome and fit my feet super nicely and were surprisingly light for a shoe that has stability control. I went for a short run on a treadmill tonight and felt great. New Balance 870v4

bowmore posted:hopefully those ones don't contain rat poo It tastes okay, if bland. I don't plan to switch to it for all meals, just when I don't have much time. I like regular food too much. I've noticed that it's quite filling. I don't get a craving for snacks late at night after a shake, so that's a plus.

JPrime posted:Hrm, that's encouraging. My other problem is cable management. I'm the person with the rats nest of cables behind the entertainment center, under my desk, in my network closet. I did my first build in over 10 years last year and when I had a problem with it booting I took it to a local shop. They called me the next day and told me they had found out the problem (one wrong cable plugged in) and also rerouted all my cables and make everything nice and clean. It was like 60 bucks total, don't worry about it.

Tantalus posted:What problems did you run into with the B? I was thinking about using my B for this. I was using the Retropie software, and basically I would take like 30 minutes to get it set up, would be able to play a game for about 20 minutes, and then the next time I'd turn it on, there'd just be some crazy command prompt error messages. It was probably a bad unit or something, but I tried using multiple memory cards and different chargers and stuff to try to troubleshoot it. I probably formatted and re-set up everything 10 times before I just gave up

Great! I was just looking for a new way to spend my yearly 250€ of eco-vouchers after buying a bike and headphones, and it seems I can use them for Hue lights since they are leds.

I want the HUE floods so badly for my recessed lights, but I have 6 in my family room and 6 in the kitchen and it would come to around US$700. I ended up ordering 12 of these about an hour ago instead, which came to US$150:

Shoot me a PM if you need help getting it up and running. I was going to stick with the older stuff, so that makes me feel better. Thanks for the offer of the PM. I might take you up on it if I can ever get to the project.

Shrimp boils usually have sausage involved too.

Toast Museum posted:You're in Charleston, right? Where are you buying from? Yup. Geechie Seafood Co. on shem creek. They're tucked back in the neighborhood where Magwood's and Wando Shrimp Co. used to be. You basically turn down a gravel drive between two giant houses, and they're out on the dock. Also, if you follow the Save Shem Creek group of facebook, they post almost daily about which captains/boats have shrimp, where they're set up selling, and the prices they're offering. It's been pretty decent, about $7-$8/lbs for head off mediums. $3-$5 for head on. They'll usually cut you a break if you're buying more than 5lbs. They had jumbos 2 weeks ago that were about as long as your hand...
