HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Happier Fantasy Football Results.

I finally won a League on Sleeper, and in Yahoo got to Diamond while winning 3rd place. Yahoo in particular has an inferior interface, but superior Live Activities and Weekly Recaps. Sleeper and ESPN run circles around Yahoo Fantasy in terms of functionality, content and ease of use. Derrick Henry + Rick & Morty = Derrick and Morty fantasy team name. I’m looking forward to playing on Sleeper…

Meet the Hiby R1

Recently for my birthday, I received a new DAP (Digital Audio Player) The Hiby R1 is a budget entry device, running off of a proprietary OS (HibyOS) instead of a version of Android. This device might be tiny, but it has some very big options, especially around sound. I have been extremely impressed so far with it, and I can FULLY understand why other DAPs cost into the hundreds of dollars. Also,…

So I Have An Arcade Stick

…for the first time since the early 2000s. It is ALL for the Marvel Vs. Capcom Collection. It is gloriously heavy. Next step will be replacing the square gate with an octagonal gate and putting in a Seimitsu bullet-top along with Sanwa parts to optimize its performance for me. I also like that it is wired AND wireless including Bluetooth. Lag does not seem to be an issue so far, but the 8BitDo…

Latest Workout…

Volume was nice, but I had to do three extra sets because the machine I wanted was taken… at 11:00 at night. When the New Years people start showing up, it’s going to be WILD! I’m curious to see how high I can push this.

Presenting… The QKZ x HBB Hades

These in-ear monitors (iem’s) are the first for only BASSHEADS. If you listen to EDM and Hip Hop or really anything with a strong bass line and do not care about the mids or treble, then these are for YOU. The Hades sound mediocre with ANY other type of music. Burn in will make about 60 hours. Disclaimer: I am by NO means an audiophile, but I care about bass in music more than anything else. When…

Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection is FINALLY HERE!!

All the great Marvel fighting games from my youth are BACK! Standard intro, nothing special I was nostalgically happy to play Marvel Super Heroes, which was my first Marvel fighting game (never played X-Men: Children of the Atom at that point) This also kicked off the road to mastering Spider-Man (shoutout to my old arcade hangout Challenges) That dominance continued until Marvel vs. Capcom 3…
