Glad he eventually got his voice back, too. uber_stoat posted:that was their big one.

Theres a bunch of bands in that uhhh "chart" that I've only ever heard one song of theirs. Therefore, this chart is invalid or something. Or represents them perfectly.

I'm pretty sure call-center style headsets existed in the 90s already.

Fighting Trousers posted:And then you had the little built-in phone alcoves in the hall. Some variation of this piece of furniture was ubiquitous in Norwegian homes:  With phone instead of cat figures. Phone books etc. in the drawers. Usually in the hallway. I guess this one is more of an 80s design but it was certainly still around in the 90s. (Hell, the one in my childhood home didn't go anywhere until my parents moved to a smaller house in like 2014.)

Volcott posted:How's the build quality on the retro fighters stuff? Been thinking off-and-on about buying a usb 64 controller since my college roommate nicked my original with adaptoid:tm:. I’m very happy with it. It doesn’t feel cheap like some of the 3rd party N64 controllers. The buttons are all responsive and aren’t stiff or anything. The one thing is the joystick. It’s a lot more sensitive than the OG 64 joystick. Personally, I like that sensitivity more because the OG 64 is stiff as all get out. However, that’s where I’ve seen a lot of complaints from others come from. For example, I first tried the retro fighter controller on Cruis’n USA and I was bouncing all over the place because of the sensitivity. I was used to having to slam the joystick left and right to turn! But once I got used to it, I really like it.

IIRC lead was used in all kinds of glass making for reasons that have nothing to do with paint. I've had to throw out a bunch of hand-me-down drinking glasses that had lead in them for no easily discernible reason.

I've had to throw out a bunch of hand-me-down drinking glasses that had lead in them for no easily discernible reason. It's my understanding (I could be wrong) that lead INSIDE the glass, i.e. added to it during the creation, isn't really that terrible unless you keep liquid in it a long time, like a decanter you put some fancy whisky in, or something. The low amount of contact time a beverage would have inside the glass isn't really going to leech lead into it. Like...I guess don't have your main drinking glasses have lead in them, but you want to break out the fancy leaded-crystal wine glasses on NYE? Go for it. But lead (and other heavy metals) in paint? Yeah that's much worse.
