Roughly, 25 years ago, I worked for Namco...strong dislike for those heavy, static charged monitors. (Cool thing to be working on though!)

Although, I might not have to go back in until Monday depending on what I hear about us getting paid for the missed time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Cool thing to be working on though!) I'm pretty new to working on them myself. When I only had 1 cabinet I paid someone $175 to recap it and reflow it out in VA. But now that I have more and have been tinkering, I decided to mess around with it myself. I am installing a new flyback and recapping it. Taking a break now though. I have already removed the flyback and recapped the neckboard so far. Like 28 more caps to install + flyback. Then cross my fingers and hope it works. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time, Namco owned a chain of Arcades in Malls called Aladdin's Castle, here in the Midwest anyway. It was my college gig. Picking up new machines from their warehouse in Chicago and distributing to the various arcades, and also fixing equipment at the arcades. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her temp topped 104 today, but a tepid water bath dropped it to 99. We've been researching things they can do, but the data is very limited. Generally, don't overdress with high fevers, cool washcloths on foreheads, fans to circulate the air, and tepid water baths (not ice baths) seem to be recommended. Tylenol. Also, some ambulation is useful. But really, this is info good for treating high fevers not Covid, but at the moment, it's all about treating symptoms. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 In time of crisis, Alabamians flock to liquor stores Package stores in Birmingham are considered essential businesses during the city’s coronavirus shelter-in-place ordinance, and Mike Carpri has a theory about that. It’s to maintain a civil society. “If they stop liquor sales, that’s going to start the rioting and the looting,” said Carpri, who runs Lou’s Pub and Package Store in Lakeview. “Taking the availability of alcohol away will start the hysteria.” Pacify the herd, in other words. Rule No.1 in a time of crisis. When people are stressed and have nothing to do, it’s best to just let them drink and sleep it off. Or so the theory goes. These Zoom chats are nice, but they’re just not the same. Still, it was a passing joke by a friend of mine during a “Zoom birthday party” that summed up our drinking habits during this health crisis. “People are stocking up for the month three times a week,” he said. Remain calm, wash your hands and do what you gotta do to stay sane and pass the time. For a lot of people, that’s drinking.
