Went to see Heart Eyes last night. It's basically like a Scream like slasher with the violence dialed up to 11 mixed with a romantic comedy vibe. An actual funny comedy, though. Hilarious at times. Super fun to watch and highly recommended.

Small arcade update ... I added pinball controls. I then gutted a controller to remove the rumble motors and mounted them behind the buttons to help simulate the physical feeling of a real pinball table! Software I used to accomplish this was joytokey and xinput plus.

Ok so it's been a while but I wanted to give an update on the arcade. I git rid if that Pandora box thing and now I'm running a pc inside with BigBox. I made a control board with a piece of plywood and a yhing piece of plexi on top. Already thinking of redoing it again though 😅

I added a couple of knock off xbox controllers for games that just don't work well with arcade controls. Like ps2 games. I'm also working on using wii motes as light guns using lichtknarre. The handles fir those are 3d printed btw. I have such a long todo list now but I'm really enjoying this.

I don't get the love for Turkey. I mean, chicken tastes better and we eat all the time. But for some reason, we all love to cook up a turkey on special occasions. I'd much rather smoke a brisket or cook a roast 🤷 I really feel like I'm not alone on this. Thoughts?

I think I have the hottest thanksgiving take of all time ... When ppl take sides on this issue, dinners will be cancelled, families will be split up and divorces will be filed. Check my next post coming in just a few minutes ...
