Hiya, just quickly wondering how people store their coffee? Mine is in a tin box I got second hand, cos I thought it looked nice. Any rules regarding storing grounded coffee? I don’t store much at the time, it’s just if I grind a little too much and what not. I’m assuming the general thumb rule for this is to store it in a...
In my coffee. Haha. I weigh out the amount of coffee I need before I grind it. That said, I also exclusively make cold brew, so I’m typically making enough for a few days.
I would recommend everyone try this. Just sit down, bend your knees, throw a blanket over, and show them the entrance. Just be warned they will not leave unless you make them
I thought my cat was strange for this same behavior. I should have known he wasn’t the only one. He will borrow under the blanket himself if I don’t have an entrance for him. Or paw at my leg until I make him one.
I plugged into ethernet (as wifi w/captive portal does not work for me). I think clearnet worked but I have no interest in that. Egress Tor traffic was blocked and so was VPN. I’m not interested in editing all my scripts and configs to use clearnet, so the library’s internet is useless to me (unless I bother to try a tor...
If it was a publicly available Ethernet port, it was likely for public use. The fact that she thought it was malicious speaks to ignorance on her part, not yours.
I’m not judging, I’m genuinely curious. The reason why I’m asking is because in this sort of games I like to make the character resemble me as much as possible in every aspect, so I’m just curious to know what is the motivation behind men that decide to play as a female character.
I was actually just thinking about that the other day. As far as I can tell, people tend to fall in to one of two camps:
Make the character look as much like (a potentially idealized version of) yourself as possible
Make the character look nothing like yourself
I always make my characters completely different from me, so they often (maybe 60-70% of the time) end up being women. My friend always makes them look as close to himself as possible.
I think it comes down to different styles of roleplay. I’m myself every day. Why would I want to be myself but Cyberpunk? My friend, on the other hand, wants to imagine himself as being in that world.
And then you have the third camp of people who make their characters horny or humorous, which can be fun to do occasionally but I cannot imagine doing regularly.
Oof. Skyward Sword is probably the worst of the 3D Zeldas, but it was surprisingly solid. That said, you may still be right, although mostly because it’s such a solid series. The 25th anniversary orchestral CD they did with it was fantastic, though.
I just started playing that last year after meaning to for many years (doesn’t help that I only got into 2D Zelda like 5 years ago). It’s super fun. I still haven’t finished it, though. Got stuck at one part or another and haven’t gotten back to it yet.
With the discussion of whether assisted dying should be allowed in Scotland befing brought up again, I was wondering what other people thought of the topic....
I think a legitimate concern for that one is what do you define as a disability worth terminating the baby’s life for. Some would likely abuse it for eugenics.
NOTE: Zatanna and Solomon Grundy both appear in Injustice: Gods Among Us as playable characters. I was playing them both tonight and would like to read about where they debuted.
Ey that’s the reason I started reading Green Arrow.
First of all, if you haven’t read the Injustice comics they are quite enjoyable. Not peak fiction, but they function as fun prequels to the games.
I personally don’t know a ton about Zatanna, but there’s a relatively recent Reddit post (proxied link) that recommends the recent Dini run and its TPBs as the best place to read. If you want the origin of the character, it seems like you’ll have to jump through some hoops. Like Moon Knight, it took forever for her to get a solo run. Unlike Moon Knight, she does not appear to have a convenient omnibus collecting all of her original appearances. If you want her first appearance, it’s Hawkman #4 (1964).
Solomon Grundy’s first appearance seems to be All-American Comics#61 (1944). He’s got a solo run by Scott Kolins from 2009. I see some mentions of Batman: Long Halloween as a good story featuring him, as well.
I received a small (6-ish spaces) hydroponics kit two Christmases ago, and grew a few strawberry plants in it last year following the instructions that came with it. We never really got any strawberries off of them, but the plants themselves did wonderfully until the cats got to them.
This year I’d like to try something more “useful”, like fresh herbs or micro greens (both of which are rather expensive to buy where I live). Does anybody have tips for how to start these, and places (in the US or that ship to it) that might carry seeds for the micro greens? I’m also concerned about running out of the “fertilizer” that came with the kit.
Unless you consider Ace Combat an FPS, the 3DS doesn’t really have any of them that I know of. You’d be better off playing the old DS ones. If you count Homebrew, your options expand a lot. Doom and Quake play wonderfully on the New3DS with the C nub.
As far as my favorite games on it: wow, there are so many. Shin Megami Tensei IV (and Apocalypse), Fire Emblem Birthright, Animal Crossing New Leaf, Pokémon, Monster Hunter 4U. The list goes on.
Nice. I forgot about Federation Force (mostly I just remember the controversy with it not being what fans expected or something), but I have never heard of either of the others. I will have to look into them.
The 3DS has such a wide range of genres (although it is heavily biased toward RPGs and Platformers) that I’m not surprised there are more than one FPS for it. Wasn’t there one called Ironfall? Or was that one was 3rd person?
Looking at some screenshots, that may have been Dementium Remastered as mentioned above by SturgiesYrFase. I’m not sure if it got a demo, and I hadn’t heard of it until about an hour ago, but it’s a guess.
Making friends on sites like this can sometimes yield invites. There are also usually communities specifically dedicated to giving out invites. And if all else fails, some trackers have open invitations (either time-limited or with some kind of interview).
A common method is to get your feet wet with an easier to get into private tracker and use the invitation threads in it to get into the ones you want.
Thank you for the opportunity! I’ve been pleasantly surprised at the quality of games I’ve played this year. Finally finished Horizon Zero Dawn after it “clicked” for me, and Forbidden West is so far an improvement in almost every way. Spider-Man 2 was nearly perfect (besides using a version of a character that I guess was designed to give you more stuff to do). I bought Hogwarts Legacy for my significant other and was surprised to find how relatively complex the combat was (especially compared to the old PS2 Harry Potter games). And I finally got into Shin Megami Tensei with 4 and have had a blast.

PSA: You can install PC mods for this game on Android. This guide tells you how. I modded my old Amazon Underground copy of KOTOR earlier this year and it works great.

I can't sit on the couch anymore without one (or both) of these goobers requesting a blanket fort. If they're desperate enough for a fix they'll even share (programming.dev)
