As few new tvs come with enough inputs I've been thinking about buying this (along with a composite splitter:

There must be a hell lot of cables.

But I have this thing that really helps with the cord clutter...

But I have mine set to NES/SNES/N64/Gamecube. I have my 360 on HDMI and ps2 is on going on video 2 unless I can figure out how to connect it to component

Monoprice used to carry the one I bought but apparently not anymore, they also have "4 in ones" but "meh."

The the PS2/3 use the same cable for that.

This is why I found a device with 2 component inputs, wii and PS2.

Imagine a universal Bluetooth 4.0 tiny adapter.

You plug it into the back of the snes, another into GameCube etc etc and a Bluetooth displayed content channel on the tv you can just use the remote to flip through which device you want to lock signal on, never needing cables again.
*** that.

It wouldn't be cheap anyway, due to needing rather fast a>d and D>a conversions, not to mention that wireless is bad and you should feel bad.

I was fast with my c/p and it pasted my last thing in the clipboard, for some reason it didn't grab the new item.

Trying to make an image tag with a youtube link didn't work so well.

Aside from that: kiss my butt, not my fault Google keeps giving me bad images (usually the issue).

I am just plain surprised you don't say *** it and emulate everything on PC while sending the signal hdmi to your tv jet.

While I enjoy my emulation, I typically stick with pre PSX era for that.

I have my NES/SNES/GBA/GB emulation on my Wii.

I have stuff on my PC as well, but where I'm at right now (even if I wanted to) the computer is too far away and I'd use dvi over hdmi if that were the case.

Also: until recently my monitors were bigger than my tv, so there's that.

I don't have enough room where I'm at right now to have it set up like I want it as well.

Have faith my friend, the building blocks are there. I'm pretty sure we can even send actual power wirelessly now to devices, not just signals.

You can up to a certain amperage, have been able to for ages.

Just wireless is bad if you want good quality, hence why you won't see an audiophile use wireless headsets.

Art? Weakness?

Then there was Tesla who wanted to send all power wirelessly, but not going to get into that.

There's debates today on how our current culture of device usage affects our bodies with EMR, if we pumped up the power too high we'd actually have an issue.

ouch....

you don't watch much tv or do much console gaming I'm guessing?
Former on the computer, latter not much for some time.

Mostly it's because of the situations until recently I didn't require a tv that big (was about 1.5-2 feet away from me in bed, so could easily see it). If I were up I'd be at my desk (couldn't see it from the desk anyway) and have a few monitors so I just used an extra screen to watch stuff/play whatever. (Monitors also have an hdmi input, so could hook up a system to them).

Edit: whenever I wall mount the tv in the bedroom I'm going to move the extra PS3 to the bedroom and play through the DMC collection.

Edit2: I guess I should sell the extra 360 now and just bring my other one over, "meh."

Except that's not the case.
We don't actually have hot dogs here. If you want something similar you go to a pub and order a sandwich with "wurstel".

That in the picture is just a random sandwich with no specific connotations to hotdogs or any italian way whatsoever.

Brought to you by Daily Italian Facts you never asked for.

Swedish one isn't exactly right, doesn't look like that at least

Also the one that looks like the Denmark one is more common (just a steamed/boiled hotdog (long) in a bun with ketchup/mustard/roasted (I think) onions

The most common one here is called varmkorv which is a long thing hot dog that you put in water until it boils (it's done when it starts boiling) with some white peppercorn and a bay leaf in it

Most people eat that with botstongurka or roasted onions

Quote:
Bostongurka (Swedish meaning "Boston gherkins" or "Boston pickle") is a type of relish with pickled gherkins, red bell pepper and onion with spices such as mustard seeds. It is so popular in Sweden that it is considered by some to be a generic term.

This is the kind of onion we use

Also the flatbread they use for tunnbrödsrulle is awesome to just eat as it is or like any other bread with butter/cheese/whatever

There's a soft type and a crisp type

Oh hey, look at that. Right after I clear all the story quests so far.


Hope this "mission" system is gonna be a reliable way to get Dragon Stones. Running out of story missions to clear on Hard already, and I doubt I'll be able to clear the Z-Hard ones without better cards... which I need Dragon Stones to roll for anyway. :I

Also seem to have drained the balls...

Hope they add some new wishes in the update.
