[echo scarab]

i accidently dropped my phone

and he got scared

and is now scared of me

how do i fix this

[opaque tartan]

Neither is cancer

[silent wagon]

Some morons wearing monkey masks in a giant white truck with two huge American flags, a huge "Let's Go Brandon" flag, and a "God, Guns, and Trump" flag just buzzed through the parking lot twice and scared the shit out of everyone. I asked my manager if there's anything we can do about it and unfortunately they're not breaking any laws

[brisk jasper]

Except they are. If the parking lot is populated, it could be reckless endangerment and also disturbing the police

[silent wagon]

They didn't go fast, just loud cuz giant truck go brrrrrr

[lucid granite]

neither is murder

[silent wagon]

Then they did a u-turn and went through again

[opaque tartan]

How many attempts have you had on your life?

I'm allowed to laugh about people trying to kill me

And bleeding in public

[lucid granite]

what?

do u frequently bleed in public?

[opaque tartan]

My only point is to not tell off some kid about depression when you joke about cancer

[lucid granite]

oh sick, i had no alterior motives to what i said

[opaque tartan]

Yes

Too many times

[lucid granite]

weird

might wanna get that checked out

[steady vale]

Creepy

[opaque tartan]

If this isn't against the law then I dunno what you can do about masks and flags
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazism_in_the_Americas

[silent wagon]

Yep

[steady vale]

I'd be like nope. Going home.

[opaque tartan]

I did at the hospital

[lucid granite]

oh good!

[opaque tartan]

Can't you just pew pew them

Pew pew

[lucid granite]

people are allowed to believe what they like, unfortunately some people use it for horrible things like this.

[eternal thorn]

Sure they are, akin to public disturbance.
No one is gonna like seeing masked guys in a truck blazing about in support of a politician.

[opaque tartan]

Five years in jail for that shit over here

If you get caught

[lucid granite]

based

[opaque tartan]

Their kids go into care too

Big bad government

[steady vale]

No you can't shoot people for being creepy. Unless they're on your property. I think. I'm not that familiar with gun laws tbh

[lucid granite]

a problem occurs when the government gets to decide what people believe and use it for wrong stuff, which doesn't happen all the time but is DEFINITELY a risk

[opaque tartan]

Get off ma lawn! Pew pew

[steady vale]

https://tenor.com/view/anime-cat-pew-pewpew-shoot-gif-4898188

[brisk jasper]

They’re likely disturbing the peace and endangering people.

In any case, they can be removed from the property by the police, as the store has the right to remove anyone from the store

[opaque tartan]

That'll teach em

[brisk jasper]

It won’t, but it’ll get them to fuck off for a few

Or piss em off further

[opaque tartan]

We have Roadmen, far scarier

[brisk jasper]

I dunno, a drunken moron with a shotgun and a family tree that looks more like a circle is pretty damn terrifying to me

[steady vale]

What's a roadman

[eternal thorn]

A man made of road

[steady vale]

[brisk jasper]

Probably someone who harasses people on roads

With weapons

[steady vale]

We have those here too
Been getting worse

[eternal thorn]

Very different from a Rhodeman
Which is a man from Rhode Island

[zenith pebble]

What happened to my Suarez gif?!

Nvm it was in a different channel

#other-games

[opaque tartan]

People that are from the streets, wear black tracksuits. Nefarious connotations.

[silent wagon]

Colin Farrel smacks the shit out of a couple wannabe roadmen in The Gentlemen, lol. Very fun to watch 😆

[limber fractal]

Good show then? I still gotta watch it. It's in my watchlist

[silent wagon]

Oh he does it in the movie (it has the same name, lol). The show is a spinoff of said movie

[limber fractal]

Ooh! I enjoyed the movie. Wasn't sure if the show had any of the same characters / actors.

So much stuff to watch. So little time, well, or energy...

[wheat burrow]

Often with black bandanas over their face also

Or maybe black snoods

[opaque tartan]

Ballys

[silent wagon]

One of my favorite scenes 🤣
https://youtu.be/J4FNyB3QFKQ?feature=shared

Also the show continues the plot of the movie, it's damn good

Guy Ritchie stuff always entertains me, lol

[limber fractal]

Lol such a good movie

[limber fractal]

Same

[steady vale]

Looked em up, they look so stupid trying to look cool

[wheat burrow]

lol

[steady vale]

There was one time I visited a different town and bunch of people were scared of me. It was weird.

Was just dressed in black, black makeup, red in my hair. Not particularly intimidating

Like literally a woman ran to her car acting like I was gonna stab her or something

[sterile tartan]

Goffik look scawy

/ s

[steady vale]

It was just that town in particular. Normally I'd get complimented. I had cute jackets 😤

[dry bison]

It looks like they were building with a floor plan that they lost and had to remake and rather than actually do measurements on what was already done, just half assed it

Did someone piss off a contractor halfway through the build who left with the plans?

[dry bison]

reckless driving, disturbing the peace...Who ever told you they are not breaking any laws is dumb

[lone gorge]

disorderly conduct

[dry bison]

Hell. Most cities have ordinances against noise too, if they were honking

Misdemeanors are crimes

[lone gorge]

i got an 89$ fine as a kid for throwing rocks. the ticket was defined as " dangerous propulsion of missles"

[dry bison]

I like giant trucks.

[lone gorge]

The statute governing this offense is 18 Pa. C.S. § 2707.1, which makes it a crime to throw or shoot any object or missile at a vehicle that is occupied by a person, or onto a roadway where it is likely to endanger the safety of anyone using the roadway.

thing is i rolled a rock down a huge hill that went across a WALKING trail

i shoulda fought it

[dry bison]

How big were these rocks?

[lone gorge]

like, torso size

[dry bison]

wtf is a torse?

You were rolling boulders?

Yeah that would endanger traffic

[sterile tartan]

What if someone had been walking past at the bottom

[lone gorge]

in a national park?

no

[dry bison]

Traffic is anyone moving, not just a vehicle

[lone gorge]

thats how i got caught. some lady which it was no where near snitched

[dry bison]

It sounds like you don't object to the charge. You just object to being charged without having at least hurt someone in the process.

[lone gorge]

i dont wanna hurt someone wtf

i rolled a rock down a damn hill

some lady said we were throwing em at her

of course i object the charge

[dry bison]

Then yes, fight it. Then go to court and make that statement.

[lone gorge]

mind you there was no traffic. she wasnt anywhere in danger or close

this was years ago

[sterile tartan]

as a kid

[lone gorge]

like a decade

[dry bison]

A boulder half the size of your torso probably couldn't be thrown at an old lady unless you're built like a brick shithouse

[lone gorge]

i was intimidated by the cops n all that shit over it

kids vs elderly

cops took her side

[dry bison]

I assume you don't have the charges still hanging over you?

[lone gorge]

it was only a fine

[dry bison]

but you plead guilty?

[lone gorge]

i didnt plead anything afaik lmao. i just gave a magistrate office 89$ and left

[dry bison]

Oh this is UK?

[lone gorge]

so i guess

no

[dry bison]

Hope no charges were filed for something so minor.

Any issues crossing international borders?

[lone gorge]

89$ fine

all there was of it

but its the fact that it was all a lie in the first place

some karen having a bad day

[dry bison]

Sure in the immediate $89, but it would suck you spend the money to go on vacay and get told to go home you can't cross into X country because a criminal background check shows you plead out and was fined and have a criminal record and shit

[lone gorge]

i was a kid, records clean at 18

[dry bison]

Usually criminal history of children is nullified after 18

but it's not deleted

It's just sealed

Cops can still ask

If you confess, they don't even need to check...all they say is....you got a record

[lone gorge]

im near certain i dont have a record or i wouldnt of been so easily hired cuz theyd of thought i was lying about having no charges

background checks

[dry bison]

I watch way too much Border Security: Canada's Front Line

[tardy juniper]

Usually juvie records are sealed at adulthood

[dry bison]

Not sure employers see the same records that cops do when doing a bg check

[lone gorge]

depending on severity yup

criminal records arent public? lol

[tardy juniper]

You’d need a Pinkerton to get that record

[lone gorge]

pretty sure ive seen people post other peoples wrap sheet before

[dry bison]

In some states certain criminal records are public aren't they?

[tardy juniper]

They are in the US, but they cost money to retrieve

[lone gorge]

im a certified missle launcher as of the day i got that fine

[brisk jasper]

Serious arrests are usually public, or at least released to the public. Chances are, you can find a news article if you search hard enough

[dry bison]

heh. Pretty sure cops have to pay for them too...Archives don't manage themselves.

I had to pay $80 to get my police records

Mostly administrative payments

[tardy juniper]

Cops get a bulk deal though

[dry bison]

As long as its in the central db

I needed to get a police clearance record to work with kids as standard procedure in charities, so thats why I needed to get one.

I do know a lot of employers now a days in health services expect one

Any job where you're working with vulnerable people needs one

kids, old people, etc

[brisk jasper]

most jobs have some sort of background check

[lone gorge]

i found a good pawn 😄

[pale meadow]

[steady vale]

Is he winking at you or does he just blink with one eye

Or maybe

[lone gorge]

Guts has one eye

[steady vale]

[steady vale]

Oh I didn't even pay attention to the Beserk reference

I just thought he looked like a dork

This is what happens when I don't read. Focused on his face instead of the name.

He kind of looks like if DMC5 Nero and DA2 Hawke had a weird baby.

The pawn Guts version, not actual Beserk Guts

[lone gorge]

I keep seeing an overly buff kiryu kuzama tbh

[steady vale]

Kazuma Kiryu?

[lone gorge]

Yea

I always butcher Japanese names

[lone gorge]

But like super Thicc lol

[steady vale]

squint
I'm not sure I see it. But I only have one image as an example, you're seeing him in game

[lone gorge]

Well, first person I see is actually guts lol. So idk anyone else similar lookin rly. The ones you named idek who they are either

[steady vale]

you wound me
Dragon Age and Devil May Cry are fantastic

[lone gorge]

I knew devil may cry but idk nero. Till now I just looked lol.

[steady vale]

https://tenor.com/view/nero-dmc-devil-may-cry-devil-may-cry5-dmc5-gif-25955449

Anyways I was mostly joking, tho some reason those two chars did pop up in my head when I looked at the pawn

[mystic horizon]

Star trek character: "A drink for my friend here as well"
Bartender: "Sir all the drinks are free, our society hasn't used money in like a hundred years."

[wheat burrow]

Star Trek character never actually suggested to pay. He was just simply saying his friend could use a libation also. Maybe his friend was not of speech.. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[hallow isle]

why are you choking that snake

[slender quartz]

Because the chicken was busy.

[steady vale]

😃 I'm like Santa but I leave snakes in your house instead

[hallow isle]

I don't think you know what santa does

[steady vale]

He watches you while you sleep then leaves presents.

😃 I watch you while you sleep and leave snakes in your house.

If you're extra good I put them directly in your bed.

[steady vale]

Why would you choke a chicken

[hallow isle]

https://tenor.com/view/snake-cereal-gif-10788553

[steady vale]

That is one of the many ways to distribute snakes

[slender quartz]

Boredom, usually. Or so I've heard.

[steady vale]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-glare-stare-doubtful-intense-gif-5066275

I can't really defend a chicken atm when Ceryn is bringing me home one

I originally wanted beef stir fry meat but the store hates me

We're having pizza tonight. I actually found a gluten free one that doesn't have garlic or onion

I honestly didn't think premade pizza could exist without those ingredients.

[scarlet gorge]

Why haven’t i gotten one yet

[steady vale]

You were a bad Goose 😠

[scarlet gorge]

WHAT 🥺

[steady vale]

I'm joking, here's a snake

[scarlet gorge]

If you have any issues or concerns in our LNF server, I recommend reaching out via #1183498442610315354 message

Just like our #contact-us channel here, that opens a private thread where you may ask questions, raise issues or concerns.

you guys heard about Moscow last night?

it's all over the news here

[hot rain]

https://tenor.com/view/what-mickey-wha-happen-happen-shocked-gif-16923342

[teal raptor]

5 terrorists from ISIS opened fire in a concert hall in Moscow

116 fatalities, 146 injured

I just saw some amateur footage

apparently they "sided" with Ukraine and went on an anti-Russia rampage

🙄

[clever vessel]

yep. Terrorists need to be captured and/or eliminated. That includes ISIS, Hamas, Hezbollah, etc

They are simply doing what their bible teaches them.

[fair portal]

From what i heard the "terrorists" "escaped".
Imo it was false flag attack. Like in 1999.
They tell me that in a city with one highest security amount in where you get arrested in 10s for holding blank piece of paper. Somehow 4+ pepole armed men entered building and starts shooting everyone and got away from the site. Btw usa warned russia about possible attack long before it happend.

[hallow isle]

I think you're confusing a 'police state' with 'policing'

being able to rapidly arrest old people, women and children for made up crimes doesn't mean the police force is any good at tackling real crime

It's pretty well documented at this point that the russian police are extremely poorly trained and equipped due to endemic corruption

[tender marlin]

Is death as scary for you guys as it is for me? Like I personally can’t even begin to imagine what being dead and feeling / seeing nothing is like

[wheat burrow]

You wouldn’t feel

[tender marlin]

To just be energy

[tender marlin]

Well yea, I’d feel nothing

Cos I wouldn’t feel

[wheat burrow]

For me I’m not so bothered about death, I’d be more sad about leaving my wife and animals behind. I’d rather they all went first so I had to deal with the pain of that and not the other way around.

[tender marlin]

Honestly what really made me think about this tho was watching hyper realistic dmt trips and realizing that’s what you see before your life cuts to black

[tender marlin]

Yea, that’s fair.. I’m still young so I still wanna experience things before I die

I’m also scared of experiencing things too

;-;

[wheat burrow]

Well me too, but we don’t always manage to get everything we want in life unfortunately; so I’m still thankful for the things I have had so far.

[tender marlin]

That’s good

I’m pretty thankful for the life I’ve had so far too

[hallow isle]

I find people are more concerned about how they die than dying itself

[wheat burrow]

But somethings I’m sure I’ll tick off still, others, who knows

[hallow isle]

Not sure that helps

[tender marlin]

I’m more concerned about the dying part itself

https://tenor.com/view/abstract-trippy-tunnel-loop-acid-gif-20944257

[wheat burrow]

I’m not so fussed, there are of course preferable ways but considering we don’t really get the choice the majority… I’m not going to stress about shit that is likely well beyond my control

[tender marlin]

To think that this is what you see before it cuts to black

[wheat burrow]

I mean this might be the case if you went out during a hallucinogenic binge

Otherwise I’d imagine a lot is just a flick of the switch

[tender marlin]

Dmt is naturally occurring, and usually triggers to release before death

Dmt is also a psychedelic

[wheat burrow]

I’m aware what it is. But I’m not sure you’ll experience this before death.

[tender marlin]

I guess it depends on how you die

[wheat burrow]

I think you’d maybe need to know it was literally imminent and the reaction happens

Anyway. On this happy note, beer time. May as well numb the senses

lol

[tender marlin]

[wheat burrow]

No Guinness?

[inner crown]

Label is dope on that one

[wheat burrow]

Taste is really good too, I would recommend

[inner crown]

Is it in the states?

[wheat burrow]

Hmm maybe quite unlikely. It’s a small Czech craft brewery.

I’ll have a quick Google

[inner crown]

Damn

[wheat burrow]

Can’t see anything coming up unfortunately. 😕

[inner crown]

Rip

Guess I’ll just stick to jack daniels

[wheat burrow]

Same effect at the end of the day lol

[inner crown]

This is my poison of choice

Although I am becoming a big fan of their honey whiskey

[wheat burrow]

Those one don’t sound too bad, I tried the honey one a few years back and found it way too sweet for my liking

[inner crown]

Shortly after becoming old enough to buy my own alcohol I bought a bottle of jack no.7 but it was a bit too strong for me

And I didn’t really have anything to mix with it

I need to run some errands today tho so I might grab a bottle of Tennessee fire

[wheat burrow]

Enjoy 🥃

That kid is an absolute little legend

[tight pagoda]

him and his parents

actually, alot of love for the parents

[wheat burrow]

Yeah I like they fact they encourage him the way they do to be honest

It’s given the lad a hell of a lot of resilience it seems

[tight pagoda]

thats what i think too

[wheat burrow]

The canon is genius, I wonder how often he’s used it so far 😂

[tight pagoda]

i mean, i would personally use the disco ball XD

im afraid for Mark though =p

[wheat burrow]

Yeah haha

[tight pagoda]

ill give it ...3 days before he unplugs the thing XD

[wheat burrow]

Stripping out all the stuff that they added bespoke, those wheelchairs are excellent. Real game changer for a lot of lives

[tight pagoda]

totally, but they are expensive, and not many know about them

[wheat burrow]

Do you know the rough pricing of them?

[tight pagoda]

no. but it can go up stairs and has only 2 wheels...so im assuming expensive

[wheat burrow]

I’d say so, that said, could be a small price to pay for such an increase in freedom.

I’m going to see if I can find them

[tight pagoda]

i know he mentioned the companies name in the video

i forgot it though

[wheat burrow]

Scewo

Just went back through the video quickly

[tight pagoda]

ill take a look

[wheat burrow]

About 40k it seems

[tight pagoda]

😦

[wheat burrow]

It’s a Swiss company

[tight pagoda]

i wonder if, in America the insurence covers it

they like to go the "cheap is good enough" route

[wheat burrow]

Yeah they probably only reserve it for diamond members or shit like that

[tight pagoda]

i personally dont need a wheelchair, but...hopefully since this company opened the gates, more competitors will follow and make it cheaper

[wheat burrow]

It’s good to know that if you ever needed one that such an option exists

[tight pagoda]

i have my service dog. he doubles as a horsey.

jk X)

[wheat burrow]

Haha you got a Great Dane? Lol

[tight pagoda]

no hes my pfp

hes a black lab

[wheat burrow]

Ahh yeah I see him there. Handsome lad. What’s his name?

[tight pagoda]

Sweet. Give Rio a little cuddle from me please.

We have a bunch of feral parrots, macaws etc
One of the caretakers at a park released them when the park closed and they were slated to be euthanized.
Not sure why they couldn't be sold.
Pretty cool to see though

They get pretty active at sunset, seems they have a lot to discuss 😅

[wheat burrow]

They make a hell of a racket. There’s a sanctuary near by me and they have about 50 of them. Noisy sods. Amazing creatures though.

[spiral zephyr]

The only one I know of that's been a real problem is the rose ringed parakeet.
Though I assume the others compete with native birds.
We even have a few giant cockatoos
One would eat pine seeds in our yard and walk around like he owned the place
Cats wanted nothing to do with it 😅

[wheat burrow]

Lmfao smart cats

[slow cedar]

yeah cats are always really active at dawn and dusk too
but birds

[wheat burrow]

There’s a few cockatoos at the sanctuary and when I went to visit them at Christmas they were all indoors. I was speaking to my favourite one, Šíša, and the bossy one Tobík started getting loud. I called him a little criminal and he just burst into maniacal laughter 😅😅😂

[pale meadow]

Smart bird lol

[wheat burrow]

He’s definitely that. He’s a great character. The owner of the sanctuary takes him all over the place with him; restaurants, the DIY store, the local government offices haha

at least somewhat

"little boy" in spanish is more like "niñito" or something

"el" and "la" just mean "the"

I'm not saying it's okay to harass people for having silly names, but I wouldn't blame people for being a little disturbed if my name was Kitty Diddler. It might be time for Mr Nino to change his name.

Astronomy Pic of the Day: Ares 3 Landing Site: The Martian Revisited

Explanation: This close-up from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter's HiRISE camera shows weathered craters and windblown deposits in southern Acidalia Planitia. A striking shade of blue in standard HiRISE image colors, to the human eye the area would probably look grey or a little reddish. But human eyes have not gazed across this terrain, unless you count the eyes of NASA astronauts in the scifi novel The Martian by Andy Weir. The novel chronicles the adventures of Mark Watney, an astronaut stranded at the fictional Mars mission Ares 3 landing site corresponding to the coordinates of this cropped HiRISE frame. For scale Watney's 6-meter-diameter habitat at the site would be about 1/10th the diameter of the large crater. Of course, the Ares 3 landing coordinates are only about 800 kilometers north of the (real life) Carl Sagan Memorial Station, the 1997 Pathfinder landing site.

How did you find the ending? I thought it was a great show but damn, I binged the whole thing so being hit by every episode toward the end back to back… it was quite a numbing experience.

||I was fully expecting Bojack to die in the end, and was honestly shocked when he didn’t. Glad they gave it a bittersweet ending tho, with most people mostly happy. Definitely constantly emotional near the end tho, get what ur saying with it being a numbing experience.||

Not enough classic Todd shenanigans near the end either

are there any good movies out?

i heard ghostbusters was bad 😦

[silent wagon]

Dune Part 2, I guess

[pale meadow]

Yes, saw it and loved it

[wheat burrow]

I was going to watch Ghostbusters soon. I might still get a nostalgia feeling from it, I hope lol

Need to watch Dune pt 2 also

[tight pagoda]

im still going to see ghostbusters

cuz its ghostbusters

[wheat burrow]

Yep I’m with you on that approach.

[tight pagoda]

plus i mean...its ign saying its a bad movie...so yeah a writter prolly had a bad day

[wheat burrow]

I loved the originals because that’s my era of stuff, so I reckon I’ll still like the new one to a reasonable extent

[tight pagoda]

did you watch the cartoons?

[wheat burrow]

Yep, used to watch them on a Saturday morning in front of the TV with my cereal

[tight pagoda]

i gew up in the "extreme" era

ghost busters "extreme" godzilla "extreme"

i never watched the original cartoon

[wheat burrow]

These were the ones I watched

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090506/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk

[tight pagoda]

i never saw that one, i saw this one

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0121932/

[wheat burrow]

I saw a little bit of that one, I don’t think I saw them all.

[tight pagoda]

i liked it 🙂

the opening was alittle much, but the episodes were good

[wheat burrow]

I’ll maybe see if I can find them somewhere

[tight pagoda]

youtube XD

there are a few full episodes there

[hallow isle]

Recent ghostbusters movies has been shit because they keep trying to have a plot

[tight pagoda]

...but...movies ...have...plots

?

https://tenor.com/view/brain-information-doesnt-fit-gif-9250302

[hallow isle]

The OG movies had a guy that inexplicably filled the sewers with slime and a giant marshmallow that stepped on buildings

That was the extent of the story

[tight pagoda]

and the stuff inbetween that you didnt pay attention to was...the plot XD

[hallow isle]

You don't need an elaborate plot about finding shit in a barn and ancestors and and and

Have an ghost with an implausible motive, lots of slime, have several failed attempts at catching it

Ghostbusters.

[tight pagoda]

also...im trying to read what the cube says on that gif i used.

no luck

[hallow isle]

Don't try and make the ghostbusters competent either

They were all sacked from their jobs

[tight pagoda]

...thats...huh...keep the dumb, dumb?

[hallow isle]

Egon made them unlicensed particle accelerators, they damage vast swathes of property, they should be in jail

Hell venkmen is practically a conman

[wheat burrow]

But they saved everyone, twice

[hallow isle]

Yes

Despite their incompetence

[tight pagoda]

o.o

its a movie

the real world is boring

movie wins

[hallow isle]

To make new ghostbusters movies good, you need to make them bad

[wheat burrow]

It says useful information

[tight pagoda]

i couldnt make out the top one

thanks ^^

[wheat burrow]

To be honest, I’m just hoping Hollywood stops rehashing old stuff and ruining it. I swear, if they make a new Goonies, I’m going to kick off

[hallow isle]

Gritty goonies reboot smh

[tight pagoda]

go indie

its working for games

[wheat burrow]

I get that they want to bring stuff to the front again for two reasons, it makes money and it’s the right time to do it because people from the ages of the originals are at that age where they have kids that are the ages they were so it’s cyclic

But

Just no

[wheat burrow]

I’ve always watched a reasonable amount of foreign cinema, I have had a good affinity with Korean stuff for a couple decades now and really enjoy watching some originality in that aspect

[hallow isle]

3 road men from London living in a tower block scheduled for demolition find a map to a rival dealers stash

Sounds like an entirely different movie

[tight pagoda]

i still love this movie

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4e3izWdh9WM

slow starter, but really good watch

[wheat burrow]

Ahh yeah I saw this a while back. It is quite good

Had to watch the trailer to remind me of what it was though

[tight pagoda]

it was so unexpected

[wheat burrow]

It’s my sort of antidote though

welp… time to get hammered

[tight pagoda]

=p

[dry bison]

The developers of Anthem must have brain damage

I'm watching a gameplay video of that game and the enemies have almost perfect aim. That's just a stupid design decision to make in an action game...Give the enemies perfect aim

and so because the developers seem to be unable to understand how to properly scale difficulty, rather than make them do more damage and lower their accuracy accordingly, the developers instead give them more health making them sponges

So fighting is less fun

Action combat shouldn't feel like a race against the grind

No wonder that game failed

[spiral zephyr]

This is from the aloha shirt my cousin wore to Christmas dinner

[wheat burrow]

Fantastic. I need to find me one of these

[wheat burrow]

Yeah true

[lucid granite]

i was VERY sad about it ending haha

~$300 for a new one from Samsung, no thanks lol

Expend4bles is on STARZ, so I'm watching that

[wheat burrow]

I had to get a new washer this year. Wife went to do washing on New Year’s Eve and the thing threw a tantrum, then tried to electrocute me… so away it went. Similar stuff with the board I reckon.

[spiral zephyr]

Yikes

[wheat burrow]

Yeah there was a loud pop and a big flash and then disco lights lmfao

That + water… nope

Bye bye

[spiral zephyr]

When I was doing my research I was shocked to find out that the pump is completely modular, and you can buy the individual parts, like the impeller, housing, or the pump motor itself.
That was unusual and rather refreshing

[wheat burrow]

Sounds like they are using an aquarium canister filter in there haha

[spiral zephyr]

Of course the short hose from the tub to the pump is $70 lol
Like what?

8 bucks less than the complete pump itself sans hose

I haven’t sold through them in a long time. Their fees are probably all different from when I did. What you got for sale?

mostly computer adjacent

[hallow isle]

If it was 32 I could have been swayed

[hallow isle]

I should have all sold it at the time

just lazy

now it's all mostly worthless

[wheat burrow]

What you selling anyway, 486s?

[hallow isle]

I have an AMD athlon X2

[wheat burrow]

Oh wow I used to have one of them

[hallow isle]

and an intel core 2 duo

[wheat burrow]

You might get more money from a scrapper to be honest

[hallow isle]

it's a toss up

ebay is usually barely worth it

[wheat burrow]

Yep

[hallow isle]

srsly though there's probably 5-6k of stuff there if I'd sold it as I stopped using it

no one wants a GTX7900 now though

[wheat burrow]

You have the problem of “but I might need to use it one day” and then after five months you forget you own it?

[hallow isle]

there's a few bits that will go for some more coins, like my old macbook pro (2018) and my old GPU (RX 5700 XT)

but only like 2-300 each

just

[hallow isle]

lazy

have just stuck it all in the cupboard

and progressively got larger cupboards

[wheat burrow]

Haha I’m a bit like that

I have the MacBook Pro 2016 with the Touch Bar and still use it. It’s still running no worries

[hallow isle]

it goes "I'll treat myself to a new X, and sell the old one to offset the cost"

buy the new thing

never sell the old one

[wheat burrow]

I bootcamped it as well

[wheat burrow]

Yeah been there

[hallow isle]

If only that was the only mac

I have 2 macbooks, 1 macbook pro and 2 imacs

[wheat burrow]

Yeah you need to at least get rid of the old old ones

[hallow isle]

basically, every computer I've ever owned since ~2008 is in the cupboard

[tardy juniper]

I kinda miss the touchbar, it was growing on me

[hallow isle]

I never liked it

I habitually rest my fingertips on the top

[tardy juniper]

but I upgraded to Macbook Air (M2, 2022)

[wheat burrow]

I’ve not actually had that many computers since 2008. Couple Mac minis, MacBook Pro, two work laptops, that’s about it I think

Three Mac minis

I tell a lie

[tardy juniper]

I do really like the integration between my macbook, ipad, iphine, and watch

[hallow isle]

I used to have a mac laptop and a mac desktop, have slimmed down to just the laptop now

as laptops are good enough

thought about getting a mini but just got a dock instead

plug my laptop in, just as good

[tardy juniper]

I also have an xbox and a PC for gaming

[wheat burrow]

I liked having the minis to run the Plex server off of when I needed to be away with the MacBook etc

Mini has been a workhorse in the background, I had a couple running for about 6 years with only two days down time when moving house

They are solid little runners

[hallow isle]

that was my excuse too, having something always on

but really

do you need it?

discovered I do not

[wheat burrow]

No probably not indeed

[tardy juniper]

I gave my mini away to a friend who wanted to learn MacOS/iOS development, it was like 8 years old at the time

[hallow isle]

saving money on power too

imac was ok, but its draw was ~90w idle

[slow cedar]

why?

[tardy juniper]

I dunno, I'm genuinely asking

I lived in the desert before, black is the last thing one wears

[slender quartz]

Because the Disney execs are stupid, and wanted them to stand out. OG Tuskens wore sand-colored clothes to blend in.

[keen bridge]

when did they wear black?

[tardy juniper]

The Book of Boba Fett

I was watching Mandalorian and realized I totally missed a really important part of his story, which is embedded in Boba's show

[keen bridge]

oh I didn't remember them wearing black

https://tenor.com/view/im-melting-wicked-witch-wizard-of-oz-of-the-west-water-gif-17977767

[slender quartz]

Yep. Book of Boba Fett was Mandalorian season 2.5. And they did it on purpose.

[lucid granite]

definitely a meh show

cool idea, poorly executed

[tardy juniper]

I'll never pay full price for another Ubisoft game

[sand solstice]

People were right, they go on sale rather quickly lol

[brisk jasper]

You could just cut out that middle bit to say “I’ll never pay for another Ubisoft game”

[sand solstice]

And I'm not sure if their club membership is worth it...or I don't play enough games to make worth my while.

[tardy juniper]

it's not

[sand solstice]

Unless you're a full-time gamer at home or something lol

[tardy juniper]

expecially when you can buy all their games for less than $150 during sales

[sand solstice]

Good point...

[brisk jasper]

Only Ubisoft game I’ve ever considered buying was R6 but even then I’ve heard the players are really sweaty

[dusty magnet]

this.

[brisk jasper]

And I play CS, so if that says anything about R6 players.

[sand solstice]

After some credits, it was $23 so...guess I'll take my time between this, Vahalla, and NMS

[tardy juniper]

I have it, it runs fine, but it's not an assassin's creed game

there's more stealth in Far Cry than there is in AC:V

[brisk jasper]

One of my less regrettable purchases ($0.70, I only use money that I get from the free weekly cases and skins I get)

[sand solstice]

Odyssey is still my all time fav

[tardy juniper]

Syndicate was peak Assassin's Creed

[sand solstice]

CS has gotten a little more prettier...can't remember the last time I played. I was never that good though

[brisk jasper]

Well, CS2 is just CS but adapted for the source 2 engine

[sand solstice]

Ah

[brisk jasper]

The new engine nerfed the shit out of smoke grenades

[sand solstice]

Back when I built my first PC...Athlon 1GHz PC lol. Still spent $800 for the total build and it was fast back then.

[brisk jasper]

I’m a very recent CS player (~160 hours) but I think I’m pretty good

I prefer to use the more niche weapons over the more popular ones

[sand solstice]

We had really good players at pro level but no one was good enough to be at world level...I don't think 3D and other famous teams are around any more.

[brisk jasper]

Probably not

[sand solstice]

When LAN was popular roflmao

LAN cafes were the days...

[brisk jasper]

I remember doing LAN stuff on Minecraft

Pocket edition too, back when it was still pocket edition

[sand solstice]

ya...and someone refreshes the server and the whole place lags

[knotty ruin]

LAN farcry 2

[sand solstice]

I like the old MPE. There's too much stuff to figure out now and I don't even use most of the blocks...or can't figure them out.

Simple days

LAN because we couldn't afford a fancy PC + fancy internets

[brisk jasper]

I can figure out the stuff now, but nowadays is more about mechanical knowledge than it is about skill and talent.

[wheat burrow]

Sorry, Tycho needed some quick cuddles then bed.

Hope you beat its ass and feel better soon dude.

[sand solstice]

Yes...I can barely build a door that opens with a switch...I go through my phases playing Minecraft

Nasty cold is going around for sure

We just had snow that turned into an ice storm so many people without power

[brisk jasper]

I play the shit out of a server with my friends for like two weeks and then we stop playing and go back to Lethal Company or CS

[sand solstice]

We did a lot of Friday night into early Sat morning playing CS while in college. I don't know how many dropped out of college because of CS or 'in hopes' of becoming a Pro. Never happens.

[brisk jasper]

Pro players are terrifyingly good

[knotty ruin]

I’ve been recently rebuying physical games you can’t find digital anymore if at all, some shits getting expensive $120 for an og Xbox game

https://tenor.com/view/wtff-cat-confused-orange-gif-25858653

[sand solstice]

Yes...usually baked lol. All the players that were good on the team did better playing high

[brisk jasper]

Might have to sell off some of my old discs then lol

[knotty ruin]

Look around, some are going for alot rn

[sand solstice]

I hear ya...I've been slowly collecting old CD's in mint condition that's impossible to find. Nostalgia...aka getting old

[knotty ruin]

If it’s obscure title that someone’s probably looking for, I’m sure it’s worth $50 plus

[brisk jasper]

See, give me a Negev, a smoke grenade and a molly and I’ll get 34 kills in a single match

[sand solstice]

Would love to get back into vinyl again one day

[knotty ruin]

I’m trying to get my hands on the sopranos game atm for my ps2 lol

[sand solstice]

Physical things will be a thing of the past for so many things

Buy it and never open it for 20-25 years for a good investment...kind of a thing.

[knotty ruin]

I may or may not be using my RGH 360 to burn a copy on the drive of my rare disc

[sand solstice]

Is that some CD burner?

[knotty ruin]

Hacked 360

[sand solstice]

oh

[brisk jasper]

I’m a very nostalgic person. Mostly because my current life is not as good as it was when I was a little kid

[sand solstice]

Never is...or feels that way the older you get.

[knotty ruin]

I’m tempted to pirate but I only mod games I bought, UNLESS I literally can’t find it

https://tenor.com/view/patchy-the-pirate-spongebob-nicktoons-bubble-gif-16638629

[brisk jasper]

The older I’ve gotten the more cynical I’ve gotten

[sand solstice]

Piracy? Never heardof it

[lucid granite]

the heck is piracy?

[sand solstice]

I think it's normal...I do care less.

[sand solstice]

I think you dress like a pirate...as above

[brisk jasper]

I wouldn’t download a car. But I would download the OS of a Tesla

[lucid granite]

i mean it must be

[brisk jasper]

Same thing, more or less

[sand solstice]

OMG...that commercial before the movies

[wheat burrow]

Welcome to ageing lol

[tardy juniper]

well, I'm not getting beat up, pranked, or teased every single day of my life, so I don't have nostalgia

[sand solstice]

[wheat burrow]

Mind you I started as the equivalent of a 50 year old man, so that makes me 89 now

[sand solstice]

I'm sorry 😦
