lol SO JUST now hit 4000 "subscribers" on Youtube, the last few 100 due to a bigger Youtuber mentioning MaximumRD in a recent video. That is cool I guess though 90% don't actually watch my content which is fine as I will never monetize. NOW if I can just get out of this funk and feel like making videos again...

You always make great videos Rob! When you're feeling it, you'll know it and you'll know exactly what you want to do

I hope this website brings you lots of motivation :-)

Yes Sir, specifically "Chocolate Spiced Rye Whisky" - Here is the blurb on it
Often, Canadian bootleggers would blend, age and transport Whisky in used cocoa barrels — after all Canada is famous for having invented the world’s first wrapped chocolate bar! The leftover cocoa husks would infuse the smooth rye with rich, warm chocolate flavours, creating something unique and delicious.
And a nice couple drinks that can be made with it (though I tend to drink straight up)

Once again after more tweaking and organizing, I am really enjoying the look and feel of Windows 11 on our main Desktop PC. AMD Ryzen 5 1500X Quad-Core Processor, 16GB, GTX 1060 6GB, Windows 11 Pro 😎🤘

@Atari 5200 Guy. Just seeing this, well you hear different things from different people. It's for ME but then I am always on the most recent updates and Widows version, my experience on several machines has been great personally, there are the minor teething problems of any new version of Windows so if you are good on 10 there is nothing earth shattering or life changing you would notice. For me, I know it's the future of Windows so typically I jump right in, get used to it, customize and tame the OS the way I like to work etc.

Life is funny, I recently posted about finding a nice BLUE KONAMI JUSTIFIER GUN FOR SUPER NINTENDO in my collection storage but disappointed to find it was only for one game Lethal Enforcers, my curiosity got me, sure I can just load the game on my Everdrive but wondered if I had an original cart. After going back and double checking I can confirm I don’t have one, I DO have this game however….yep you guessed it, I don’t have a Super Scope because of course I don’t 😂🤷♂️

My first thought but I doubt it as I could only find the Justifier Gun as compatible with Lethal Enforcers, plus the gun seems to plug right in the controller port where as the Super Scope has it's own sensor, I am sure it would have been mentioned somewhere in my searches if it were so simple, if that were the case no doubt most would just choose the gun! THAT ALL SAID, I WILL STILL TRY IT LIKELY AT SOME POINT BECAUSE I'M SILLY LIKE THAT.
-
Good point. I forgot the super scope was a little different.
-
Always found the idea of the Scope odd, like, being Nintendo and obviously shooting games but was the idea Its totally not a GUN ! Nope, NO GUN, IT'S A SCOPE! A SCOPE I TELLS YA !" 😆🤷♂️

Volkswagen got in trouble this morning for "attempting" to change their brand name to "Voltswagen" just to try to celebrate April's Fool Day. Yea...they caught hell from it, from major networks, too.

Aha~ I was wondering what VW was thinking with the new name 😆
The one that got me a little excited was seeing a post about a new mini console of the original Xbox. I have the actual console and a sizable library, so a mini version has little practical application for me but these mini consoles are all so cute.

RE: N64 😎 I am a huge Resident Evil games fan so of course even though my first experience of it was on Playstation I simply HAD to own a original N64 cart as shown. It's just loose cart and I have not played it in years (Hope it still saves?) but it is one of only a handful of original N64 carts I still own as I use my Everdrive mostly. Still, look forward to trying it out again soon, what they achieved on a N64 cart was impressive. 😍

The N64 was the last of the cartridge systems. I have to admit that I admire that console. It has some great games both 1st and 3rd party. Midway supported it very well as did Rare. I have a lot of good memories on the console with the RUSH series and the Rare platformer/adventure games (Gemini, Conker, Banjo, Perfect Dark, etc.). I could listen to the Cruis' N World theme all day long and not get tired of it. The only aspect of the N64 I had issues with were with the controllers. I would wear out the thumbsticks in about three months. And it was hard for me to find aftermarket controllers that were comfortable. It's just a neat and unique system to own with fun choices of colors, only cartridge system to make use of an expansion port (for something other than a CD-ROM), and is overall pleasing to use. The controllers are surprisingly comfortable and easy to use and they don't cause cramps.
I've never played RE on the N64, only on PS. I'd like to know how it stands up today. Oh...F-Zero on the N64 is a no-brainer. That's a must-own N64 title!
-
😎😉Now, I typically use my Everdrive but I have a pretty small but ok collection of original carts. I think I got most in a lot some time back, Ogre Battle 64 was sent to me from a fellow youtuber who said it was a good one. I would definitely play most of these happily though Quest 64 I have heard is not so great? Also, I am not much of a Pokemon fan in any capacity but I think it requires a separate accessory pak which I have but it is missing the Mic that plugs into it. Anyone know if I can plug any mic with a plug that fits? Maybe the mic from my Dreamcast vmu for playing Seaman? That would be a funny alternative. Of course Shadows of the Empire, Resident Evil 2 and Goldeneye are my favorites, of the rest does anyone have a favorite or even one you cannot stand? Thanks.

@TheProfessor Hah Nope! The people who are eligible are the nominees I made and grubgun (the guy I tied with) made. I was eligible last month because the last winner Kitt171 nominated me and so it goes. Thanks though. Last time I was eligible was several years ago but I was up against a very popular Youtuber that thrashed me lol. I suspect I wont be up again anytime soon.

@DeLorean I do not beleive so, it was brought to attention of the public with terrific viral marketing convincing the studio that fans wanted it and wanted a "proper" Deadpool movie and it worked out for all involved big time.

Sigh......I've not uploaded a video in some time and truthfully just don't feel like it. I have even started making a video 2-3 times over the last few weeks but then stop because just not feeling it, hope this is a phase

Loving the new site the more I use it. In my video game art thread I noticed how easy it is to upload multiple images /attachments now. Starting to really see the benefits! Great work JUSTIN and all involved! Atari. io is better than ever! 🍻😘

THANK YOU ROB!! That means so much coming from you. We're very fortunate to have you as part of the forums. I'm glad you like it! We're all averse to change in some way. I think the more you get used to the new site though the more you'll love it. Uploading is better, personal profiles are really cool, member blogs look awesome, and the "Topics" box on the top right shows shows topics with new unread content, not just "new" topics. This feels like a big leap ahead! 🕹️

THANK YOU!! I hope it never stops impressing you. It really has turned out to be a great site. Just takes a little getting used to.

My guilty pleasure BAD BEER 😏 Let me be perfectly clear friends....IT IS NOT A "GOOD" BEER, I am very aware of this 😝THAT SAID, IT IS CHEAP and I will consume it for a quick BUZZ. Prefer Innis & Gunn or Guinness or Grolsch or pretty much any PORT or STOUT. I will definitely take it over a BUD or Coors or any light ass Beer. 😆
-
I've never had much beer but, I do agree with RickR, our beer tastes very watered down. Most of it tastes like someone peed in a can and called it beer. I'd like to try some of what Japan has. I hear their beer is good.
I'm a Smirnoff person myself 😉 but not as often as I use to be. It's good for breaking a fever, I know that much. I'd rather drink a shot of vodka than to take any cough syrup. That stuff's nasty.

JUST AN FYI to everyone: This Tuesday at 3 pm is when I go to get the Cyst on the white of my left eyeball drained....obviously, I am nervous and not looking forward to it. 😐 Please wish me good luck.

I'm sorry, man. Seems perfectly normal to feel as you do. Aging is just a series of one indignity after another, isn't it?
Don't worry too much, I'm sure all will be well. And hopefully you'll be able to see better after it's done.Good luck! I'll be sending good vibes your way.

Thanks so much, I avoided Googling as you know that tends to bring the most horrific results to the top BUT I am glad I did as the articles I read seem to indicate a painless procedure for the most part, a topical applied to the eyelid for freezing so the draining is painless. From what I read their can be minor bleeding due to eye structure so most of the annoyance or discomfort is after the procedure and the healing process but I can deal with that, normal recovery type stuff I am fine with, considering all I have gone through with my eyes the last several months that is the least I am worried about but I am relieved some about the initial procedure now. I will be glad when it is over with.

Hope everything went well!

Red sunrise this morning from our balcony because of the surrounding smoke due to all the surrounding BC wildfires currently going on throughout BC and the Okanagan Valley. 😛
-
Do you guys have an air purifier inside your apartment? I have a couple of little desktop units in our house, and they work very well when the wildfire smoke gets really bad. They are "HEPA" rated, but the nice thing is that the filters can just be vacuumed and re-used. I have such terrible allergies, and those things really help in keeping the air clean.
And PS - how is your eye?
-
Beautiful sunrise, I hope they get the fires under control soon. I always love when you share personal videos like this @MaximumRD
-
Thanks guys, the eye is better mostly but the original eye issues and source of problem still not really resolved, trying to stay calm and deal with it daily. It is frustrating.
