So does anyone here know how to make a non-HDCP compliant tv compliant? I just got a giant old 50" Nakamichi plasma for free and of course it's non compliant so the DVI input isn't working with the cable box or PS3.

Geirskogul posted:ATGATT amirite? Actually I wasn't wearing flip flops this time so I guess I hosed up? I did have sunglasses on tho. Also I seem to be having horrible luck with electronic devices, anyone happen to know why the brand new JBL Charge speaker I bought seems to not like certain non bluetooth MP3 players through the aux input? My old Sandisk Sansa is barely audible with both devices turned all the way up.

some texas redneck posted:The manufacturers of the players assume they'll be used with earbuds (which barely use/handle any power at all; we're talking milliwatts) instead of traditional headphones (which have larger speakers, and thus, need more power); they put out power in the milliwatt/millivolt range these days. I'd try that test if I had a 90's walkman Kind of a bummer about the Sansa, but tomorrow I'm picking up a Samsung Galaxy player for 30 bucks so I just solved my problem

Yeah only free games for me. Could use a decent antivirus/malware/cleaner app, I downloaded Clean Master and it's more of an add for more loving apps. And basically any advice to keep it from taking a poo poo and/or running too slow, it's a Galaxy Player.

Yeah they have been discontinued for awhile now. Got this one for $30 in great condition so I can't complain, maybe I'll eventually root it for shits and giggles just to see how far I can go with it.

They're in the Swifts, Samurais, some Geo Metros, the Tracker, etc. I owned a Suzuki Swift Gt with the twin cam, put a header and exhaust on it and beat the living poo poo out of it. Took the abuse in stride, never had any issues with it, great little motors IMO.

Fireball is a fad and will disappear as quickly as it appeared. Just like Aftershock and Goldschlager did. We still have an old bottle of Goldschlager in our cooler at the bar and no one has asked for it as long as I have been working there (4 years) and people are starting to ween off the Fireball now. Thank god.

Liquid Cocaine Cocktail Recipe 1 oz. Goldschläger 1 oz. Rumple Minze 1 oz. Jagermeister 1. Don’t, under any circumstances, find yourself in possession of any of these bottles (let alone all three). 2. If that does happen, proceed to pour them all into a glass, one at a time. 3. Think long and hard about the consequences of drinking this. 4. Chase with bleach.

Eventually I'm going to try my damnedest to find a way to get my '94 Honda CR-250 street legal and/or "street legal" and throw some supermoto wheels and tires on it. That thing would be downright scary on the street. Also, you can get into trouble with a scooter if you try hard enough! My dream bike right now is the Yamaha WR250X, I'll have one eventually but they are so rare I'll probably have to go out of state to get one [e] Also yeah, already getting into trouble on the scoot

Located in TN but could drive a couple hours if needed if either of you are interested. drat would love to but it's probably gonna be awhile util I can afford one. How much are you gonna ask for it out of curiosity, because the few I've seen around here were way over priced.

NitroSpazzz posted:The amount people ask for them is stupid but they can be hard to find. If I remember right I paid $3200 for it, I'd sell it for the same. Of course I'll be listing it for $4k or so this spring and still be lower than a majority listed. Yeah, something tells me I'm going to end up with a DRZ if I can't find one reasonably priced, but that's ok I guess.

T-Square posted:Just curious, why are you opting for a WR over a DRZ? I loved everything about my DRZ and have never been a fan of the WRs at all. I think they look goofy, and there's the whole 250 versus 400 part. I think WRs look better, and I want FI. Also better mpg and ease of maintenance. power is not a big concern for me

Don't know if anyone else watches football, but I'm a Packer fan and the game yesterday was probably the most brutal loss I've ever seen by them and I've been watching games since the horrible Lynn Dickey era. I usually don't get too upset by football games but Jesus this was a hard one to take, I've never seen a game just given away by a myriad of mistakes in the final minutes before. Unbelievable.

Forrest Gregg, uuugh. quote:Placing most of the blame for this one on McCarthy. Agreed. Not going for it on 4th and inches for a touchdown twice in a row left me knowing it was going to bite them in the rear end. Never mind the defense dominating all day then going into conservative mode when the hawks were coming back. I don't get his style of coaching.
