@Duey0x0 @Cruzlink2 I think Grego was working on a patch for the mister CPS2 core but I don’t think he ever finished. Not sure how the systems would communicate. Maybe TCP/IP?

@Cruzlink2 i maybe wrong but i think MisterCade Versus can run Sf2x tournament edition @MisterAddons ?

Man #fuckcps2 also , during our ST tourney last Saturday one of the multi boards decide to crap out. Vertical lines no matter if you pressed or reseated would go away. Took it home and checked pins and all normal things and nothing. Now 13 buffers on the multi later fixed....

Helping one of my kids study for the SATs makes me wish I had studied more before taking the test. What advice do you all have for study prep with three weeks until test day?

@masofbase Yes but then the SAT practice test questions end up being fairly different.

@MisterAddons Have you found LLMs helpful? Mock exam questions?

@TreyStrother Great strategy. It seems easy until the pressure of the test is upon you.

@MisterAddons Skip what stumps you, and then double back at the end. As a former teacher, the biggest mistake I often saw with standardized tests was wasted time. If you finish and there’s there’s still time, just use it filling in what you skipped first, then review your previous answers.

@iequalshane @RGBsLab Section 301, baby. Be glad you didn’t use UPS. You’d be in it for up to 200%. Ask me how I know.

Wow, Fedex hit me with a 30% fee on my recent @RGBsLab order 😬

@SneedPlays Lovely! Thanks for sharing :)

Have been using the @MisterAddons Reflex Prism this past week with a few different PC CRTs and it works like a charm. Thank you.

@DerekPascarella Slick. Is this based on github.com/sonik-br/GDMEN… ?

Development of my new "Orbital Organizer" GUI for managing Rhea/Phoebe Saturn ODE SD cards continues to go well! Right now, I'm working at perfecting IP.BIN parsing, which is actually a bit messy due to some devs not following SEGA's rules! I'm programmatically parsing all IP.BIN header dumps from redump.org/discs/system/s… to ensure my technique is 100% solid.

McDonald's Chicken Nugget Tetris (2023) has now been dumped and emulated. This is a significant achievement for me, as the game's microcontroller is quite modern, and tackling something like this was beyond my reach until now.

@willreil @JLCPCB I’d offer pointers but they make it really easy. Always happy to help if you need an extra set of eyes.

@MisterAddons @JLCPCB No but I’m going to with these!

Absolutely crushed. I ordered a board with clear v-cuts and got a board with none. Did I do something wrong? Is this a mistake by @JLCPCB?

@golden_egg Wild!

Misprints make things worth more, right? Guess I have my retirement figured out thanks to @MisterAddons

@yacineMTB 0402 is the sweet spot. Only use 0201 if you have to, or when decoupling a fine-pitch BGA package. 0201 can be prone to tombstoning during the baking process.

why shouldn't i just pick the smallest possible cap/resistor sizes if i'm going to get it assembled by a board shop? is there any reason other than being a stinky incapable human to get bigger sizes than 201

I've taken my findings from reverse engineering the Mega Play arcade version of Sonic the Hedgehog and applied them to the Sonic 1 disassembly project. I can now build a binary identical arcade ROM from source, including the 8-bit instruction ROM that's on the cartridge.

@golden_egg A few weeks

@MisterAddons Is there an ETA on the HDMI jumpers for the IO Direct?

@cazaugg I’ve never had an issue with this before (just respecting the kicad rules) but I’ll keep this in mind. No issues with this batch of boards, either.

@MisterAddons The MLCC caps so close to the vcut will break (aka loose capacity) when bending the board to remove it from the panel. Vcuts must be cut, not bent as MLCC hate bending.

Reflex Prism PCBs are finally here! Time to test, assemble, and ship. Severely delayed, but well worth the wait!

@prokane Shouldn’t require a slim cable. I need to do a fit test to verify though.

@MisterAddons Will this batch also require a slim-profile 3.5mm audio cable with recessed outer jacket, or does that only apply to the first batch?

@Mugen_Ketsueki They private their github

@MisterAddons Page seems to be removed?
