    We talked about movies!

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbKnWsnq2jk
    This is the thing I was talking about. The guy that does this works at Gearbox as a creative something-or-other, and was the voice of Scooter in Borderlands. He also used to have a podcast with Kris Straub, and this Movies with Mikey was one of the side projects.

    I also like his take on Scott Pilgrim:
    and Fifth Element:

    Oh, that Mikey! Yeah, I liked his junk with Straub. Though, really, I always like Kris Straub. The Broodhollow material makes me feel like that guy needs a hug sometimes.

    Oh hey here's that automotive thing I was talking about

    I went to the automotive place for my stuff, which is somewhat closer than body and paint. They were pretty reasonable, like 200 bucks for a rear mirror, 880 for timing belt + tensioner assembly, and they talked me out of doing alignment so they're not money mongers. The only reason I mention them was because I called around for timing belt quotes and these guys gave me the cheapest offer, much cheaper than the dealers. If the body and paint is run like automotive they're legit, but at that distance you have to think about what you're going to do all day or transportation - automotive offers anyway.

    I found it by a combo of yelp and google reviews so if you do the same you'll probably get a similar caliber shop.

    Disclaimer I am seriously not paid or recompensed at all for this stuff, which is a lie as I am the kingpin of all unsolicited sales ads in minneapolis

    Also, were we talking about this pcb?

    this ... looks incredibly easy. I could probably definitely put it in all the fightsticks until I run out of money. For now, I will get an rj45 to usb cable from focusattack, and if that doesn't work I will be EXTREMELY UPSET.

    You have to "generally agree with the party's ideals"

    Then you usually go stand in a middle school for a while while some arcane political motions are passed.

    Then you group up for your candidate. Then whoever hasn't decided gets to be convinced by the people who have.

    Mega Ran and MC Lars are coming to Burnsville on Saturday, March 5.

    Pretty sure I'm gonna go, since tickets are only like $11.

    And in unrelated news, this weekend Hells Kitchen is serving frog legs and kangaroo steaks in honor of leap year. THAT IS GOOD MARKETING.

    Mega Ran's Facebook page. I would have missed it otherwise, since I'm not as big of a Lars fan, and I guess Lars is technically headlining?

    Coheed and Cambria is also in town this weekend, but I didn't get tickets for that. I saw them last year when they were here and it was good.

    By the way! We'll be playing Street Fighter V in Dreamers Vault in Minneapolis on Sunday at 2PM. We can make room for other games too (since I'm not sure how many PS4s will show up, and I know @Perrsun is still looking to wreck people in Killer Instinct.)

    Edit: Oh, right, details. https://www.facebook.com/events/127282067652044/

    Oh, neat.

    So did you know about the Ax-Man surplus store in Minneapolis? You can buy nunchucks there.

    I bought a wood carving iron, some solder+flux, some 22AWG stranded wire, a soldering stand, and a 25c circuit board, and I've been living the life of riley here

    babby's first solder:
    3yqXXml.jpg

    I learned that if you bead up too high you can draw down; it's like playing with mercury, quite fun.

    I've also got the RJ45 to USB cable and can deliver it tomorrow. Just got new blades for the utility knife that will hopefully cut through that awful twist tie job I did.

    BTW, if there's anything wrong with that tournament board, say the word and I'll gut it with the brook pcb and as many sanwa / seimitsu parts as you want
