I'm back...-ish

Post by HBN » Wed Sep 03, 2008 12:49 pm

*sniffs the air*...Ahh, filled with the semi-acidic smell of solder as always. Good.

Well, glad everything is as it should be. Sorry I missed out on some stuff. And sorry for being silent, even when I was active.

You might be asking yourself "Why are you talking? You wanted to finish you project on that post-mark!". Well. Old dreams, old ideas. None of it has worked out and I'm sick of keeping my mouth shut.

In other words; I'm bored as hell, and I want to talk again. I want to comment to ideas, projects, and assorted bullcrap that shows up here.

So...Where to start...

Oh. I'm engaged now. Yep. And let me tell you, I'm one lucky, and one seriously happy muthah screwah. You may refer to her as "Fishy" as that is her nickname.

Recently, rather than working on projects, I spend time with her, or working the scrap metal business for spare coin (So me and Fishy can start our own business). That being said, I still have my projects. So far I have:

HBN64 (On hold til I can afford a screen, and can devote some time to it)
MSN64Controller (On hold til I can afford a case, and can devote some time to it)
And a few pipe-dreams that I won't go into right now other than reveling one project I've been thinking about a lot: "Project: InStap" Or "Project Instant Portable". Basically its just a unit that would plug universally into any system that had AV and give you a portable screen (That ran off of two 7.2v, high amperage packs), and a 12vdc-120vac converter that would plug into a cars' lighter socket to give you the power to run any system. Not totally portable, but at least some-what. Questions, comments, tips are always welcome, and highly requested. However, I really don't want to hear about how "Stupid" my idea is. "Do unto others...", ya know? I'm just requesting that you be nice.

I'll be more active than I have been, but not as active as I was. At least thats how I think it'll be. Who knows. I might be just as active as before.

That should cover my life as of now. I missed being here. It's good to be back.

I'm scared as to why thats her nickname.

Okay that was nasty I apologise :P but in all seriousness, I remember you vaguely, welcome back.

Uhm, congrats, I guess, and welcome back. Don't know why I'd want to talk about her, but whatever.

Erm, I won't tell you your idea is stupid, however, I would like to point your attention to the Zenith screens, in particular, the one for the GC. It's been done. Maybe not universally for every console, but it's been done. The screen can power the console. Just to do the one console is 3 wires. I'd imagine a "universal" one would look like Cthulu choking on spaghetti. Good luck with that, though. You're gonna need it.

You are not the first to say that. Thats her nickname cuz she likes fish, and swims incredibly well.

So we can go, congrats HBN. Hope you and Fishy have a good life. And we demand an invite to the wedding.

Valid point. I'll pass on the wedding, though. Someone else can have my invite. I despise weddings with all my being.

Heheh. I'll see what I can pull off for the invites.

@mothatrucka...Why do you despise weddings?

I do wedding photography sometimes. Could be a nice little money earner if I bothered charging :lol:

would go mad at weddings otherwise, would have nothing else to do.

Edit: Aww, just realised you're American and i'm British. May be a bit too far to travel :(

Certainly seems to, ey?

@Rekarp...Beer? Is that a strange animal thats a cross between a bear and a deer? Or is it that piss of a rhino thats bottled, and sold by Miller? ;).

Edit: 300th post...This was originally supposed to signify the completion of my first portable.
