Shift_, to ADHD in I made a realization about why it's so frustrating to explain ADHD to neurotypical people.

Gaslighting is actually pretty close in terms of what short term memory issues are like. Except you can never be sure if it's just ADHD brain, or something is actually different.

Since they're born from the horse end, they could have horse like gestation. So they can probably hang out in the womb about 2 months longer. Not a huge difference for humans. However if we're assuming they are a product of evolution, it would stand to reason that they could have accelerated growth compared to humans. Add in that centaurs are generally omnivorous, you get a higher density of nutrients consumed. It's possible that the longer gestation, plus more nutrient dense diet, plus some evolutionary shenanigans (centaurs maybe did have toddler heads and horse bodies, but those just died out), they could end up being born with enough back and neck strength to keep themselves upright.

But we're also talking about centaurs so the answer is probably fuckin magic I guess

Especially since it already has party mechanics built in. Why can't they just swap out pawns for your friends? I get it wouldn't really fit the story, but that can be handwaved.

A lighthearted and colorful Soulslike RPG with actual multiplayer. I want to run around in a BotW/TotK style world and go adventuring with friends, while still feeling like the combat is challenging. I want to be able to head into a dangerous dungeon with friends and not be sure we'll make it out, while having a more storybook fantasy vibe. Too many game opt for gritty apocalypse worlds. The recent Zeldas show that you don't need to go grimdark to have a compelling fantasy world, while still retaining a save the world vibe.

It's good to hear people are getting the help they need.

The Artemis app is in beta and it's looking pretty promising. Definitely still some bugs, but the UI is dead simple and easy to customize. Switching to a subbed only view works well too. The official mag is m/artemisapp

Shift_, to nostupidquestions in Do you use the swipe to type feature on your phone?

I tried using it for a few months and just kept getting wildly inaccurate predictions. It wasn't any faster or easier so I just continue typing normally. Plus the multi-language recognition isn't good enough in my experience.

Shift_, to cyberpunk2077 in Will just keep posting here until people have some things to talk about. 😃

The game is actually very close to what it promised initially. Obviously some things just aren't possible (you can't open every door to every building unfortunately) but cyberpunk has really come into it's own in the past few years. Not to mention that Phantoms Liberty is going to essentially be a soft relaunch along with a whole new story and world map. I'd say it's at least worth a couple more hours of trying it out.

Shift_, to coffee in New to coffee

Pour-over is generally speaking, the closest to what most people think of when they hear coffee. There's tons of articles and youtube channels to help you decide on the exact one you want, but the V60 is hard to miss with. Getting filters that fit is cheap and they should be at any grocery store. A hand grinder is the next investment, and there's tons to choose from. Generally the Hario ceramic coffee grinder is a good choice. Beans is where things get truly interesting. Go to some local shops, and try a cup. If you like it, ask if they sell it. If they do, boom done. Take it home and start dialing in your grind size and ratio. If they don't, no worries because you can still try another place and another cup.

At the end of the day look for a coffee that you enjoy amd is easy to make. Don't let anyone tell you what the "right" way to enjoy coffee is. Some coffee I drink black, but most I add a touch of cream and sugar. I like to try new coffee from different shops and origins, some find a bean they love and stick to it. Coffee is 100% about preference.

Shift_, to asklemmy in What's it like working night shift?
Shift_ avatar

I personally love working nights. I'm not a morning person by any stretch of the imagination. In fact I am actively worse at things the earlier I wake up. Conversely my brain feels clearer and more active after 10pm.

That being said, my social life is almost entirely online. I rarely go out IRL. I sleep like a rock and only need about 6 hours anyway.

If you are someone who needs to talk to people, has trouble sleeping during the day, or requires a lot of sleep, the night shift is likely not for you.

Some people are built for it, some aren't.

This is a bit of a spoiler, but the guy who mentions Musk is actually from the evil mirror universe. So the second guy from the mainline universe is confused as to why Musk is on that list. He was probably a bigger figure in the mirror universe.

They gotta feel superior somehow, might as well dive head first into the delusion.

Pressure washer? Might be overkill, but if you get one with enough horsepower it could do the trick.
