I don’t know why I haven’t linked here lately, but here and here you go, you know, just in case it doesn’t turn up elsewhere (again).
Been busy, especially the last week, thought about posting, been too busy to post, and posting on the cmllblog is much lazier.
You know what I hate? Roadside places – oasises, rest stops, whatever – where they promise “Free Wireless Internet”, except it’s free and it’s not often accesible. You can’t easily sign up for whatever stupid stuff they want you to sign up for on the internet browser of a PDA, and you can’t at all when you’re just trying to connect on a DS or any portable gaming system.
I had this wonderful, awesome plan to try to wake up at the 294Lake Forest Oasis by plaing Mario Kart DS, wireless against the world. Except, while I could connect to the access point, I couldn’t get beyond it, because I couldn’t give them my e-mail address to do god knows what. Sucked.
This was also the day where I looked at the time/temp display on my car, and found myself staring at “4:25 0F” and then rembered that meant 4 AM and wondered how my life had gone so horribly wrong. And then 15 minutes later it hit -1 and at least was happy to know it could show negative. So I really wasn’t in the mood for a stupid signup thing.
I’ve been talking the Pierre stuff to death in e-mail, so I have no need to talk about it here. I figured out a new gimmick to try next season for more consistent posting, but we’ll see if I forget it by the end of the second week.
questions for the world
If Sonic DVD sucks (and I think so), what should I be using?
Should I start making DVDs of the GdR shows? Effort > Money
Are there splitters for composite audio/video cables (the yellow/white/red ones)?
Where is my VCR remote?
I dunno any of your other answers, and in fact the answer I DO know starts with “I dunno…”
I dunno if they actually make composite splitters, but you could always buy three Y-cables and it’ll work in a pinch (so long as you’re not so worried about signal quality). Ask the nerd at Radio Shack to get an even better answer.
