I'd probably like it. Those wafers are fun. Tasteless, but the texture is the same as those vanilla wafer cookies. With marshmallow fluff, it would actually taste good, too.

When I was in elementary or junior high, we were asked to write an essay on what we thought the world would be like in 2025.

Not one single person thought the Nazis would return, let alone be Americans.

I haven't had any friends that are actually in my life since 2009.

I like TOTK's map. It's not really the activities there are to do in the map, but the sights. BOTW, with the same main map, is good but you had very few traversal options, making it too big. But you can literally build a helicopter in TOTK and fly everywhere, so you can actually explore it in a more timely manner.

The floating sky stuff was more disappointing than the underground, personally.

I'd prefer memory safety, any kind of overflow sounds bad for production.

That's what the bucket is for.

There are very few places that will actually challenge you if you wear the right outfit and have confidence. I haven't worked at Walmart in years, but I can still wander around the back room looking for unstocked items if I wear a blue vest and some jeans.

Universally, you could just wear a janitor's coveralls and carry a mop and bucket around.

Old beaver ass?

I don't have either... :(

Of course. It's EA we're talking about.

These are the same assholes that when they bought Bioware, they shut down bioware's own official website where you were encouraged to store your game keys (for NWN, Jade Empire, SOTOR, etc) without informing any of its users that it was closing, and that your keys were going to be deleted, and then when you complained about it they just told you to buy the games again.

Something is bugged out. Both of them are huge in the first phase.

Am I kenough, tho?

Back in the day, every single video game used to have a little note on the box, in the manual or even on screen when starting it up that you should stop playing every 15 to 20 minutes to walk around and look at something other than a screen.

Haven't seen that warning in multiple decades now. And I doubt it was ever shown on office software.

These guys are new to me since the last time I played, so IDK what's up. I have a dead one just chilling in my freezer and nobody will do anything with it. It's not counting as a corpse? When trying to force it at the butcher or creamtorium, it says no corpse available; but they did stick him in the corpse pile.

I am using the Alien Races and Anthro Race mods, which might be fucking things up, but this is a default race, and even with the xeno ideology additions, my colony is set to not GAF about eating people (human or alien); not to mention they'd burn or bury it anyway, just because it's a corpse that isn't one of us. Not sure how to dispose of this fuzzbutt and stop the negative thoughts upon seeing him while grabbing some chow.

Edit: He weighs too much! IDK how the hell they carried him to the freezer in the first place though... He weighs 60kg, and the maximum anyone can carry is 34kg. :/

Edit 2: Even though I had already tried this, setting my crematorium to allow everything then forcing them to cremate bodies worked just now. Doing the same thing with the butcher table didn't, and I had already tried this last night with both before I made the post and it wasn't working... Ugh... 😮‍💨

 

Two reasons, actually.

  1. It's not their preferred preparation. All the replicated food is based on a pattern from an original recipe. It's not adding flair or anything, it's literally a copy of a dish made who knows how long ago. And that's where the next reason comes from:

  2. Imagine eating some spicy pepper dish from, like, the 1940's vs the same dish made today with spicer peppers. It wouldn't be as spicy eating something that wasn't, at the time, really selectively bred to be more spicy. If the recipe for the replicator is, like, hundreds of years old it would probably not be as potent as the same dish made with real ingredients.

I can imagine that the characters that have expressed disdain for replicated food probably get hit by both of these. It's not the way they would preferred it to be made, and it's also like eating vegetable jello salad in 2024.

 

Would it be possible to have that added as a method of sorting posts on Lemmy? Instead of including votes, or just the most recent comments, "Active" and "Hot" could also include simply what's being looked at even if nobody is actually interacting with it in any other way. Actually kinda baffled why this is already a thing on SM.

Also I wasn't sure where to really post this, which is why it's here.

 
 

I've never had a work of fiction affect me so and I don't know what to do other than talk about it. I keep making myself cry wishing it all was real and I was there on Adastra or Khemia with Amicus and Neferu.

I've certainly felt a fondness for characters and wanted to be transported to fictional worlds before but... Not like this. Not this badly. And it's not even the visuals that drew me to any of the characters; I've seen their images a lot before ever playing the game and didn't have the same pull toward them as I do now, knowing their personalities.

This is so fucked up and stupid and I feel dumb for even admitting how it's making me feel, but I just have to because otherwise I'm going to overflow. 😖

I got on my PC today and noticed that yiffit, my homepage, won't log me in and just keeps giving this red banner popup in the left corner that says "error incorrect_login."

I know it's not my login/password combo; I am able to use Jerboa and Firefox on my phone to log in and do stuff (that's how I am writing this post!) but on my computer it won't let me in! Cleared the history, cache, saved info, etc and it just keeps giving me this damn error even when I try to open the login page to make sure it's trying the right info.

The main page itself just gives me the standard "server issue" error that I assume is Lemmy's default error page when it can't reach the server. But again, I am only getting this problem on my PC; my other devices allow me to browse and post just fine, so I have no idea what the heck is going on here. Is it my end or the server?

 

Personally, I don't* but I was curious what others think.

^*^some sandwiches excluded like a Cubano or chicken parm; those do require cooking.

 

I'm not sure if this is a Lemmy issue, an instance issue or a Jerboa issue but occasionally when I hit the button to reply specifically to the main post and make a top-level comment, it instead replies to one of the already existing top level comments.

I don't know how long this has been happening; I only just now noticed it wasn't me accidentally clicking the wrong reply button when it happened twice in a row and I was making absolute sure I hit the right button the second time.

 

I have 1 last achievement to get and it didn't seem like it would be that hard since I already got S rank without even trying on all the high payout missions when I was grinding cash for all the parts.

However, a few seem to be completely arbitrary and not simply about speed and efficiency. Or maybe I am just not fast enough? I have to actually use a stop watch because the game doesn't actually tell you the mission time...

Anyway I have literally 2 left that I can't get above A rank on and I don't know why.

First is Stop The Data Breach. I zip through the level as fast as I can destroying the hacking nodes, and even take out the tetrapod in the hallway while waiting for the dialogue to continue and give me access to the last door leading to Iguazu. I know from watching a video of someone getting S rank that the damage and ammo costs I end up with are good (even lower) so it's gotta be the time it takes to do the final fight. But that dumbass Iguazu heals like 4 times every time he's down to nothing which makes it take way longer than it should. I can kill him faster but that would cost more in the ammo cost, assuming it even hits because the weapons that would allow near instant death are also super slow and he constantly dodged all over the place.

The other is Destroy the Refuelling base. I've zipped straight to the main objective and killed the ACs at the end in under 2 minutes and got A rank. I've gone and blown up all the fuel dumps then the main objective and killed the ACs in just a few seconds more; still A. The fuck does it expect me to do? Finish in 30 seconds? I can use the fastest possible mech build and it still takes like a minute just to reach the objective going in as straight a line to it as you can.

The lack of clear objectives listed for these arbitrary requirements is driving me crazy. I've looked for answers online, of course, but every answer is different. Some people got S rank doing this, others got it doing something else. Neither method worked for me, so it just feels like random.

 

Playing Ghost of Tsushima and just trying to get the best settings for my machine and was suggested to use high preset with resolution scaling off and frame Gen on.

It certainly makes the FPS counter say it's 60fps now when it would constantly dip to 40, but it doesn't feel or look smooth at all. I can get 60fps without frame Gen in much of the game, and turning it off in those areas looks smoother and feels nicer.

I've never used frame generation in anything else before so I don't know if this is normal or what's going on. Would it feel better if I uncapped the frame rate and turned off vsync?

 

Just thinking about how I've read that humans are the only animals on the planet that can throw objects with a degree of accuracy. But could a dog or other animal be taught, and trained to throw things to hit a target? I mean, it's not like a human can throw well without guidance and practice, either.

 

I just noticed that I can summon Torrent for the Elden Beast now. Is that a bug?
