I have the same model (also from AE) , and I use it for my PC Engine and a few other things, and I don't notice any latency at all. If it was laggy, shoot-em-ups on the Engine would certainly show this.

I have an OSSC on order to get a good source to do some decent captures of some Atari ST stuff, but for everything else, thsi £6 box just works

Isn't thermal paper full of cancer chemicals?

Wikipedia posted:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_paper#Health_and_environmental_concerns
Some thermal papers are coated with BPA, a chemical considered to be an endocrine disruptor.[9][10] This material can contaminate recycled paper.[11][12] BPA can transfer readily to the skin in small amounts:

When taking hold of a receipt consisting of thermal printing paper for five seconds, roughly 1 μg BPA (0.2–0.6 μg) was transferred to the forefinger and the middle finger if the skin was rather dry, and about ten times more than this if these fingers were wet or very greasy. Exposure to a person who repeatedly touches thermal printer paper for about ten hours per day, such as at a cash register, could reach 71 micrograms per day, which is 42 times less than the present tolerable daily intake (TDI).[13]

In my recommendations today is an odd Cyberpunk necklace. None of them have a description (across multiple listings) and I’m not smart enough to tell what it does from looking at it. It looks like a 3.5mm headphone jack and a usb so maybe it plays music? Maybe it just plays a voice saying that over and over? Lee Child is the pen name of the guy who writes Jack Reacher but searching for that phrase just brings up some Chinese meme style pages.

Maybe a I want one?

It also has an antenna on it... Presumably it's a USB powered Bluetooth receiver

E: here it is, not sure if it had USB power unde the regulator

Is there a knockoff available on AliExpress? $120 USD is a bit hefty eh.

A style of soap holder where you stab a jagged piece of metal into the soap, that connects to a magnet with a suction cup. I'm sure it's definitely not going to rust straight away, making it a fun tetanus generator when your Irish Springs gets too thin.

Place bet now! what am I likely to get in '1 to 10 days' from ordering this:

I guess it'll turn out to be a much smaller peltier cooled model, rather than an actual compressor model, but at £16 all in, it's still cheaper than a non powered coolbox, so at the very least I can fill it with coolblocks for days out in my van.

Probably nothing at all, 0% feedback isn't a great indicator

I've looked into those compressor type fridges before, they're a few hundred bucks for a legit one unfortunately.

Tetanus is also anaerobic, so it's more likely to be an issue with deep puncture wounds rather than surface scratches.

If you're an adult, remember to get a Tdap booster shot every 10 years! You get a sore arm for a day or two, but you don't get diphtheria, tetanus, or whooping cough, all of which you really don't want!
