Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

[–]deepfryerdan 53 points54 points ago

I concur, I came to the comments for some insight as to how he set that shit up. I have quite a few systems myself but the main thing stopping me is being able to hook all of them up at once (or at least without nested video switchers). But alas, no solutions..

[–]DMthePerson 14 points15 points ago

I believe there's some sort of device you can plug into an extension cable to make it less dangerous with twelve-or-so devices plugged into it. This is what James Rolfe (Angry Video Game Nerd) uses, but his setup is a total mess.

      Cable porn meant something different when I was a lad.

      [–]Breathing_Balls 45 points46 points ago

      When I was a lad, I had to frequent corner shops, to purchase a top shelf jizz magazine. There was no digital delight in my day.

      Luxury! In my day we had to find box o'porn on t'railway tracks, then go home and beat off in silence so as not to wake up me 65 brothers, then get up at four in morning and go down t'pit.

      [–]MisterBTS 60 points61 points ago

      Veritable paradise! When I was a lad I had to fap to line drawings scratched in cobblestones by my own bleeding fingers, and my Dad beat me around the head and neck with a broken bottle all the while. When I was done he would kill me, pack my carcass into a shoebox, bury me in a cesspool and dance on my grave singing 'Hallelujah!'

      [–]throbbing_banjo 57 points58 points ago

      Oh, I would have loved to have been able to fap to cobblestone etchings! Back in my day, I had to walk six miles up a mountain of broken glass, barefoot, to watch an old pair of goats hump next to a nunnery, where the sisters would shoot me with a cannon and beat me with reeds. I'd have to go back home, six miles uphill again, quickly fap out behind the checken shack in the rain, and when I got home, me ol' dad would slice me in two with a breadknife.

            I'm not really OCD about things but I wont lie... looking at this tumblr made me feel relaxed and somewhat content that everything was where it should be.

            [–]randomsnark 5 points6 points ago

            Yeah, it's hard to explain why really. I mean, my room is a huge mess, as is my desk, and so on and so forth. But scrolling through that tumblr has an interesting effect on my brain.

                      I highly suspect this is just for show. The video switcher for that setup would be absurd, and likely doesn't exist.

                      [–]radioshaq115 27 points28 points ago

                      Actually it is possible, albeit difficult. I remember watching a video of the Angry Video Game Nerd talking about his set up and how he can have so many video game systems set up on one television. It takes some work, quite a few switchers and quite a few surge protectors but it is possible.

                            You can very easily get a 24x24 video matrix switcher, or any other number, they're just not cheap. That's 24 inputs and 24 outputs. You can get them in an assortment of input and output counts too.

                            Then you just have to get HDMI adapters for each cable type.

                            [–]HyzerFlip 65 points66 points ago

                            As a guy that made a similar setup... Don't ask.

                            Mine wasn't as complete... But.. I'm sorry for the crimes I've committed.

                            [–]Zhang5 56 points57 points ago

                            Let me guess: you had switchers that lead into upper level switchers; a nasty mess of forking device selection?

                            [–]HyzerFlip 48 points49 points ago

                            Remember the age of many of these systems.

                            Two terrible terrible words.

                            Daisy Chain.

                            Edit: typo.

                            [–]TheDrunkenChud 2 points3 points ago

                            that's what i was thinking. for over half those systems you would have a 10foot long co-ax daisy chain. the rest on switchers.

                            [–][deleted] 3 points4 points ago

                            Is that where you go co-axle, into co-axle, into co-axle? You know this thing.

                            [–]EbonPinion 15 points16 points ago

                            Upper switcher to choose columns, lower switchers for rows. That's not too bad.

                            [–]BeJeezus 14 points15 points ago

                            But first you have to get them all into the same format. RCA?

                            [–]EbonPinion 9 points10 points ago

                            Oh, yeah, that would be the hell reserved for people who rape people while ALREADY IN HELL. Once you had it wired though, SEXY.

                                  In theory, he (or she) would have 8 switch boxes. But that's depending if OP's "Friend" has a special switchbox that supports HDMI (and or optical).

                                    Either that or you wind up dumping hundreds of hours into only a handful, especially if you're playing multiplayer or sandbox games.

                                    Also: Decision Fatigue - it can literally be so tiresome to decide from plentiful choices that the quality of your choice degrades or you even make no choice whatsoever.

                                    That explains my experience with Skyrim. I once spent about 20 minutes straight standing on top of some mountain paralyzed with the number of options of what to do next.

                                        There are a couple of things that can help, I find.

                                        Step one: Pick three games you want to be able to play. That's it. Just three. Can't play any others till you beat it or you're done with it.

                                        Step two: Now make them favorites in Steam and then click "All Games" above your library and change it to "Favorites". Now you have 3 games. Easy choice depending on your mood.

                                        Step two (alternate): Now make shortcuts for those three games on your desktop. Never actually look at Steam, just use the shortcuts. Now you have 3 games. Easy choice depending on your mood.

                                        The only way this won't work is if you're a pussy who is too pussy to play the games he god damn chose to play in the first place. What are you? A weener? A big baby who can't beat games because of "attention problems"?

                                        Yeah I fuck up all the time and stare at my library for waaaay too long. I'm a big baby. :(

                                              It's like Octodad, takes a moment to learn, a lifetime to master.

                                              If anyone is wondering, Octodad is where you play as an octopus in a suit, masquerading as a human being in day-to-day life.

                                              It sounds like the producers made a normal shitty game and the controls sucked and they decided to replace the dad with an octopus. Genius.

                                              If that is the case, that is the most brilliant move in gaming.

                                                            Pretty much. There are all these AAA games out there, but at the end of the day, I can never get myself to launch and play those, but I keep playing all these 5-10 minute games with original concept every day and have shit load of fun.

                                                                  Considering how expensive many of these older systems and games are if you haven't somehow kept all of yours healthy over all these years, I have never felt emulation to be quite so evil as typical piracy.

                                                                  So in that scenario, you literally have every game available to you, and I dare you to resist sticking to those carts you actually used to own. You can even buy USB versions of most of these original controllers to complete your emulation.

                                                                  Shit, I've even set up my old TI 99/4A and Apple IIe lately to keep the nostalgia train going.

                                                                  The fact is you won't want to play most of those games when you get a craving. Most people will at best want to play one of them every now and then.

                                                                  This setup is still great to have. It's a collector's setup, but it's usable. Considering the ease of emulation, this is something special that really isn't even about the games anymore as it is having a playable enthusiast's collection. My systems are all taking up a lot of space, poorly organized, and will undoubtedly have to move again in the future. This is set up as a display, and may be able to stay there forever if OP owns that house.

                                                                                        It has to do with the old CRT monitors being able to display any resolution they wanted by adjusting how many lines it draws on the screen. And while an old CRT television has no problem drawing a 776X402 screen (or whatever the actual ratio was), most modern flat screens can't.

                                                                                        And because they can't display the proper aspect ration, they display the closest approximation, and it looks blocky as hell.

                                                                                        [–]singularity2030 6 points7 points ago

Still, I get nostalgia overload with this collection and it'd be fantastic to own. I'd just have to hide a PC behind the entertainment center.

There is a barely visable PS2, partialy out of frame at the bottom left. On the top of the main shelf is a PSP and P-Triple.

                                                                                                      Otherwise, I think I'll try to identify the consoles for fun and internet conversation; the cubby-holes -- starting at the top left:

                                                                                                      1. Famicom w/ Floppy drive

                                                                                                      3. 7800

                                                                                                      5. NES

                                                                                                      The most amazing console to have is probably a pre-production M2, which you could consider something like a 3DO 2. I stopped bidding on one on eBay when it got to $400.

                                                                                                      I sucks to collect consoles now, People on the internet will send you a yellow NES with pizza toppings still dried up on it. Someone wanted $800 for a Neo Geo at the flea market; fak dat gooby. I gave up. Whatever can be emulated.

                                                                                                                    Though I guess then he could just circumvent the problem by moving one console into storage.

Really, who could enjoy all of that equipment? It looks to me like he just enjoys owning the 'newest' gadget on the market. Does he ever play any of them or does he spend all his time shopping for the next item that becomes available?
