  1. In Sunnyvale again for the weekend... think I'll stop by 1312 Crossman and Borregas Ave. buildings for some Atari fun!

  2. Any suggestion for reheating frozen pancakes? I tried microwave, toaster, and toaster oven, and each way either doesn't heat enough or continues to 'cook' them making them hard and brittle.

      Get one of those small pizza ovens. I think that would work.

      Are you sure this isn't someone that's got an eprom burner and the original rom?

      For something that's supposed to be "Rare" it's sure popping up quite a bit on Ebay.

  8. F*** CANCER! How dare you take yet another friend away at such a young age? I'm only 35, yet I know more people who've died too young from this horrible disease than I have fingers on two hands. F*** CANCER!

  9. This weekend I learned that I can successfully lowball (by 40%) an eBay BIN/OBO. Or how I got Dreadnaught Factor and a bunch of other carts for the A8 for $40.

      It works every once in awhile on Craigslist.

  11. As someone who rejects the supernatural, I feel kinda left out of Halloween. Maybe instead of a haunted house or haunted hay ride I should start my own attractions i.e. a house where some interesting events occur and a scientifically explainable hay ride

      What's worse is Christmas. At least you can have fun with Halloween.

  12. I just reserved a Budget rental car online. The top of the confirmation page says, "Congratulations! You're Finished!" which sounds kinda threatening to me.

  13. Way to go Broncos. Thanks for beating Dallas.

      What do you mean? It's positive for people to lose money over the idiocy of our congress? I know many government employees that do great things and take pride in their work. They have nothing to do with the stupid politics, yet their jobs are played with every time things like this come up.

  14. Day 4 of furlough, ~$1050 lost. Enough for two arcade machines, or both nextgen systems. ...also enough for a house payment, which was a far more likely place for me to spend it.

      Last year was the last year I worked for the Government. It's been brewing for awhile.. I'm surprised it took this long to happen.

  15. Apple store in Hamburg sued by works council over CCTV, Amazon Germany on strike for tariff salary ..., some U.S. companies apparently still don't understand the importance of works councils and trade unions here.

      @Atarian - Companies have warmed up to outsourcing so much because our politicians have given in to their wants for cheaper Labor. Hence programs like NAFTA (In America, this was the beginning of the end of our Manufacturing industry). I too would be very nervous if Labor Unions were banned. As Fletch said, they're the ones who ushered in many of the worker's rights that we enjoy today.

      Still, it will be a fun unit to play with. Is there a way I can run homebrew code on the Toshiba model?

      It's the Toshiba model. I'm sad that it's not the model that will run Homebrew code.

      No, we're too busy gutting our Unions and screwing the workers to care.
