So any anti cabin fever projects?

Needed the mental distraction so been doing all kinds of dumb stuff on the old Gameboys. My DS Lite has now been flashed to skip the health warning screen and can now boot NDS games off Slot 2 (the GBA slot). Played around with the Gameyob emulator. Can't get it working on my Supercard, but it runs great on the R4. Supercard has Goomba on it but the image is roughly the size of a postage stamp.

Totally pointless exercise, but a nice distraction.

:dunno

My portables are all screwed up. Really need to get on that myself. I've been aiming to install a cap kit and a rechargeable battery for my gamegear as well, but then I remembered there's nothing on it that I actually want to play. I'm going to get my arcade cabinet back in a playable state this summer as well, mark my words.

Have you considered a Pi?

In what has become an obsession, I managed to get Lameboy running on my Supercard. Had to grab the scsd.DLDI from here and patch the .nds file.

So that means I can scale up the image to fill the screen, and the emulation is supposed to be "better" than Goomba.

Gameyob won't work no matter what I do. I either get "error opening directory" or a blank screen. So, I tried patching it with the scsd_moon.dldi file, and that gets me into the app and displays my directory contents. If I try to open a directory or run a ROM in the root, it freezes. Tantalizingly close. Supposedly the best emulator out there. :dunno

On the other hand, at least I've brought the emulation from circa 2006 to 2012.

Mostly posting this to document what I did so I can find it again in 10 years.

I finally got the new wifi thermostat working on the house. I couldn't figure out why it wasn't working.....got under the house... the wires going to the thermostat were split and re-patched in two places...... The color coding didn't match up in either place. :banghead: :banghead:

I'm covered in cobwebs, my knees are shot and I smell like dirt and butt, but I can turn on my AC from around the world now.

Strangely the old thermostat.... according to how it was hooked up, shouldn't have worked, but somehow it did. When I fixed the wires and before I hooked up the new thermostat it wouldn't turn on the heat... so I don't know what the hell that was about, but it works. They were both honeywell too and not that far apart in terms of when I bought them.
