[TOMT][SONG] Need help ID'ing my favorite 80's style Synthwave/Dreamwave Song

This one has been bugging me for weeks now. I had been on a Dreamwave 80's synth kick a couple years back. One day, while listening to a Timecop1983 inspired radio station on YouTube Music, an amazing song came up that I played the heck out of for weeks. Unfortunately, I've since completely forgotten the name and artist of that song and it's killing me. I'm pretty sure it was not a Timecop1983 song though.

The verses are mostly just a man's voice speech singing with heavy reverb. The chorus is much more distinct, and has a man and a woman singing something like this:

(Woman) Aaaah, Aaaah, Aaaah, something sooooomething (sounds like 5 syllables)

(Man in a lower octave) Aaaah, Aaaah, Aaaah, something sooooomething (also sounds like 5 syllables)

(Woman again) Aaaaah, Aaaaah, Aaaah, Something sooooomething

(Man Again in the lower octave) Aaaaah, Aaaah, Aaaah, something sooooomething

This is followed by another verse of reverb lyrics. I've recorded my God awful attempt at humming the chorus below. Apologies in advance.

Finally, I remember that the cover art for the song was extremely neon pink and black, possibly with a person with sunglasses on? Not sure about that last part. AI has already failed spectacularly with this one. Does anyone here recognize this song?

Need Help Recalling The Name of My Favorite Dreamwave Song

Unfortunately, I've since completely forgotten the name and artist of that song and it's killing me. I'm pretty sure it was not a Timecop 1984 song though.

The verses are mostly just a man's voice speech singing with heavy reverb. The chorus is much more distinct, and has a man and a woman singing something like this:

(Woman) Aaaah, Aaaah, Aaaah, something sooooomething

(Man in a lower octave) Aaaah, Aaaah, Aaaah, something sooooomething

Direct Air - No pressure on Ventral (Underside) area?

Hey all. I'm currently CI-3, working the eternal hump to get to CI-4. I've been using direct air with my foreskinned air V2 for about 6 months now. It seems to be working great for the dorsal (top side of things), but I've noticed that as big as the balloon will blow up on the dorsal side, there's almost no inflation on the ventral (under) side. If I were to look at the state of my restored foreskin, I definitely have a little bit more skin on the ventral side then the dorsal side, so I'm a bit confused why the balloon won't inflate as much down there.

Is this a known thing?

Need Advice: Looking for a TMR sensor replacement with the same stiffness and feel as stock Dualsense ALPS modules

Hi all. I have a PS5 Dualsense controller with heavy stock drift. I've been doing extensive online research trying to figure out which TMR sensor to switch to that would give me the same feel as the stock ALPS sensors. Most of my reading points towards KSilver JS13 Pro+, but the general consensus is also that they're a fair bit looser/lighter than the stock potentiometers.

One of my main requirements is an equivalent tension level to stock. Are there any other options that would get me a bit closer than KSilver?

Need Advice: SVS Ultra Evolution 7.1.4 Setup + Denon x6800 Not Playing any bass in Stereo output mode

Hi all. I'll try to be as succinct with this as possible. I have a 7.1.4 system consisting of a number of SVS Ultra Evolution speakers, including two SVS Ultra Evolution Towers (as my front L/R) and a PB-4000 subwoofer. All of this is hooked into a Denon x6800h receiver. I've already gone through a few rounds of Audyssey calibration and generally speaking, both regular surround sound and Atmos sound pretty incredible. Unfortunately, Stereo output seems to be the one exception to this: despite sounding clear, it is completely lacking in any bass at all.

I currently have all of my crossovers set manually to 80 HZ, which I have recreated in the 2ch playback settings shown in the image above. As you can see, I've tried setting the crossover to both 80 HZ (as I did with my normal calibration) and to Full Range. In both cases, Subwoofers is set to Yes. Neither choice resulted in any change to the flat, bassless output when watching Stereo content. I've also tried messing around with the subwoofer output setting, attempting to use both the LFE and LFE plus main settings, but neither resulted in any change.

The only thing that seemed to help was changing the sound mode to direct or pure direct, which suddenly gave the bass output its normal expected punch. My question is, why would this be? And if the return of the base is due to the system bypassing my normal calibration preset, then why is it that that that preset only sounds flat in Stereo mode (my bass is quite heavy in normal Dolby surround modes)?

I apologize in advance for my ignorance - I'm a bit out of my depth troubleshooting this one and would be grateful for any advice you guys might have.

▲ 0 r/Roms

The short version - I recently built a dedicated, detached movie theater in my back yard with a 4K projector hooked up to a high end Denon. I want to live out my childhood dream of playing my favorite NES/SNES games on an enormous screen, but many of those are not found on Nintendo Online.

I'm not really interested in building another computer just to use it as an HDMI ROM machine, but a brief Google search showed that there are a number of gray market HDMI memory sticks that you can buy that come loaded with a large number of 8-bit and 16-bit ROMs. Does anyone here have any recommendations for brands/models that are the best for this/least likely to have some kind of malware?
