nah it's being fun (I'm laughing at you guys testing while we were changing the code LOL), but you guys need to have some patience, Shawn is trying to find a way to fix the preview too, so you can test on your profiles, but the scrollbars should not appear anymore, the site will crop the image for you

Is that why the site randomly wanted to be slow as fuck for no reason and the thread was oops we ran into problems or whatever the fuck it says.

Every electronic device suffers from degradation, corrosion, oxidation and such, but most are likely to be more than a lifetime for it to happen enough to truly damage it.
It it's stored properly, the only part that could have some issues are the ones outside the shell, which goes to the cartridge slot on the console.
But if it's just these outer pins, even if they stop working, it would probably be an easy fix.

I thought the "disc-rot" article said you had about 10 years- less for double-sided discs...
You used to be able to clean the contacts of NES (and like cartridges) with eraser on a pencil, but I'm sure those eventually will stop working.
Stupid air, ruining everything!

Not if you take care of it. It could be some warm homemade milky filling. You don't like eating some cream pies?

Are you asking about "white wings"? Got 'em.

much thanks!
Yeah its a real show that had two seasons. The music was written by Allen Menken, the guy who made all the classic disney songs, and scores for the movies.

Wait. So it was an actual show- like on TV? What year was this? I may have to look it up- it kinda reminded me of Krod Mandoon.

That cat is thinking about all the toys/snacks as soon as the human looks away

Yeah, once that camera is off of him- "It's Showtime!". Like "Shark Week" in a basket.

Sexy U-haul porn?

Oh, yeah. Take those home furnishings, you bitch. Mmmm yeah.
Are you trying to outdo Blood with obscure porn?

Lobster rolls got me when I was on the East coast.
I wasn't a big lobster fan until I got some fresh lobster and lobster rolls.

Those are tasty...so are crab cakes. Damn, now I want seafood AT NIGHT! Thanks.

Yeah, there's some sort of 'fog' on the shiny underside of the label (Which is the read part)
I assume that is the problem. The drive reads how much data is used on the CD, but nothing shows up when I open.

Well, there's something to look forward to, I suppose. How did you have them stored?
I have CD-Rom games older than CD Burners. Guess it's only a matter of time for those too.
Welp, time to salt the barrel of a revolver and do some "shots".

I never got the wagyu burgers because I didn't trust them to cook it right.
Good news is that the different specialty meats seems to be on a rotation.
There was brisket this time last year, too. Hopefully pork bell will be back!

Trust me. They FUCKING DIDN'T!
I, honestly, didn't think I was going to have to gnaw my way through a $12 wagyu jerky burger...
I don't know, it's been almost a decade since I've seen the pork belly sammiches. It's like 12 miles to my nearest Arby's, but for those- I'll waste the gas.

R.I.P. in peace sweet prince.

THIS might be the nicest thing you've said to me...I mean, it does have to do with my dying and all...

I've known people I've worked with in the past to switch a few letter positions on mechanical keyboards on multiuser terminals. Just for shits and giggles to wind their colleagues up. Especially effective as the terminals were for the completion of electronic copies of the physical work orders and demanding spares and as such none of us were 'no-look' touch typists. Also knew one occasion where the default language was changed.

Two of the best old-school pranks
Ctrl-Print screen someone's desktop. Go into "Paint" and paste the image. Save the image and set it as their wallpaper. Then drag all of their shortcuts to the edge of the screen to hide them. When they go to click on something- nothing works, because it's just a picture of the shortcuts.

The other one was to assign a sound to every key on the keyboard. My buddie's brother used to play OG "Wing Commander" and older Big Mech kinda games that used damn near every key- so he puts on his headphones and about 2 minutes later, he's ready to kill both of us.

I have used a metal polish and dremel at low speed to fix a couple Blu-rays.
But this is the actual read surface having problems.
I took a pic, but forgot to attach it last time, so this is also for @Safetydummy

Well, now I'm even more depressed than normal...

Mmmmmm, quesadillas are good. I had chicken fajitas tonight for dinner.
I'll have a spicy anus shortly.
I used to make a bunch of chicken breast into little fajita/quesadilla chunks to store in the freezer and add for a quick chicken hit. Easy to add to a quesadilla!

Sometimes I'll cook a package of bacon and have it around for such purposes (throw into a quesadilla, fritata, scrambled eggs, mac-n-cheese, or damn near anything else ). Maybe I'll do something like you did with the chicken, but with pork, next week - al pastore style. Works great on quesadillas, tacos, etc.

I bid you all adieu for the evening with this anti-social musing:

A good way to threaten somebody is to light a stick of dynamite.
Then you call the guy and hold the burning fuse up to the phone.
"Hear that?" you say. "That's dynamite, baby."​

 

[PsychicJohn]

sorry my code is fucking up and note working as intended

Its all good

at least the auto crop seems to work

Also, just to be sure, the total max resolution for no scrollbar is set to 1500x300 now, correct? (Or more like the crop aspect ratio is set to that?)

 

[Grim21]

Working with plumbers, electricians, framers and drywallers will toughen a person up.
Thin skins are quickly calloused that way

I can imagine. Most people in those professions likely have a zero BS policy when it comes to people. But I'm willing to bet that if you earn their respect, they're pretty great people.

Stupid air, ruining everything!

You can still clean the cartridges. If they're really bad, clean with electronic cleaners or lightly with alcohol & Q-tip.
A light coating of oil will help prevent oxidation on the metal contacts, as well.
I use 3 in 1 oil. Mineral oil or WD-40 works, too. Lightly use q-tip to coat the metal. No need to bend the prongs.

Who whoa whoa. I'm not coming for the king like that!

Welp, time to salt the barrel of a revolver and do some "shots".

Retail and burned CDs in a zipper xase, on held 150, one held 25, both had a few CDs that skipped. The CD-R were in a zippered case and some stacked.

Trust me. They FUCKING DIDN'T!

Might as well just get a regular burger at a restaurant for that.
Oh man, I am going to ruin your day. They had pork belly last summer.
They also had the 'Smoke Mountain' which is Pork Belly, Brisket and Turkey.
I think I blocked an artery with that sandwich.

THIS might be the nicest thing you've said to me...I mean, it does have to do with my dying and all...

Well, you survived! That's good...

Well, now I'm even more depressed than normal...

Luckily, I don't think I needed 10 episode of DBZ at 320p and a 25 year old Max Hardcore scene.
Although, I wish I remembered which scene it was

I need some info, seems like you're the only one with a scroll bar, CTRL + F5 ?

I can't tell if you're messing with me or not. But no, it still has scroll bar.

Maybe I'll do something like you did with the chicken, but with pork, next week - al pastore style. Works great on quesadillas, tacos, etc.

MMMM.. I have a 10lb package of pulled pork I might have to try something with.
Pro Tip: If you make the chicken pieces thinner, you can toss them frozen on the cheese with the quesadilla and it won't be all dried out when the cheese is melted.
(Although you;re probably the pro here)

the width doesn't matter the forum will auto size that depending on the user but the height is set to a max of 300 and thats the issue the forum refuses to auto resize image hight... it does the width just fine just not the height
but ya if you make an image at the width of 1500 and someone like me with a smaller rez sees it it going to be crop on the height part

Goodnight everyone!

I can't tell if you're messing with me or not. But no, it still has scroll bar.

Clear the cache, i immediately noticed the change and all scrollbars were gone and guzs signature got auto cropped to fit the 300 height limit on my end. Also happened with my signature.

the width doesn't matter the forum will auto size that depending on the user but the height is set to a max of 300 and thats the issue the forum refuses to auto resize image hight... it does the width just fine just not the height

Ok good to know. I will reupload my signature with the proper 300 height limit just to make sure there is no issue for anyone in the future.

Thank you for your efforts

Even if the contacts get fucked I think it's not hard to save it with some cleaning and soldering. Can it be fucking ugly? Yes, but it would probably work. Hahaha
