Nah, Mihon is free to use. https://mihon.app/

[shrewd pumice]

it on ios too?

[lofty spoke]

That, I do not know. I would never touch an Apple product intentionally.

https://mangasee123.com/
https://mangadex.org/
https://mangafire.to/

[shrewd pumice]

ill have to add these to sift through

[lofty spoke]

Hope it helps you

[rapid marsh]

Same. I don’t like reading manga on small screens, but would certainly be good.

[shrewd pumice]

i read them on my laptop

i used to plug my laptop into my tv with an hdmi and sit on my couch holding a wireless mouse

[lofty spoke]

It depends if I'm laying in bed or not. Being crippled doesn't leave you with much to do.

[shrewd pumice]

not sure how to follow that up sorry to hear that man

[rapid marsh]

I don’t think Apple has these

Just sifting App Store.

[shrewd pumice]

if you mean the 3 manga site he sent those are websites

[rapid marsh]

Yes, but one also has an android application.

[shrewd pumice]

oh nice

i wanna jailbreak my old ipad so i can play old games from my childhood but it seems difficult af & risky

[lofty spoke]

It's all good.

[lofty spoke]

Can't imagine doing that. I just download emulators.

[rapid marsh]

Ok, manga fire seems to work fine as browser

iPhone tends to, ah, dislike free things

[lofty spoke]

Oh, yeah. They work, but when you're using Mihon, these are the best extensions to use.

[lofty spoke]

Just imagine if John Carmack didn't open source the Quake engine.

[rapid marsh]

Yeah, mihon doesn’t exist in Apple Store, likely because it’s free and no purchases for moolah, and add revenue would be 0.

[shrewd pumice]

ye the first and third worked for me on my laptop browser

[lofty spoke]

Cool beans.

[shrewd pumice]

more likely because it pirates sht

[rapid marsh]

No, it doesn’t pirate from my understanding

[shrewd pumice]

oh dang neat

[lofty spoke]

Why do people translate manga when they don't speak the language they're translating into?

[rapid marsh]

Because they’re weebs

[shrewd pumice]

they trying, still have to appreciate the free work they put in

they just need a proof reader

[rapid marsh]

Like, I can kinda read French, and get the gist of it, but I certainly won’t translate it

[lofty spoke]

True, but when you have communities as big as this, they should already have a system in place.

[lofty spoke]

I took like 2 years of French, and barely was able to read it. Learning different languages is hard work.

[shrewd pumice]

i mean the manga community is big but they still would likely have to pay for that so they’d use a volunteer

specially if the author/manga isn’t well known/popular

[lofty spoke]

Pay for the mangas themselves, perhaps. But passion projects don't require being paid for.

[shrewd pumice]

i’ve had mandatory french from before i started school through like grade 10 and speak no french

i even used to speak it relatively fluently i think when i was extremely young and lived in a place with lots of french speaking

[shrewd pumice]

i don’t follow what you mean

[lofty spoke]

If I was in Canada or a French speaking place, I could most likely adapt rather quickly.

[shrewd pumice]

i live in canada and no one speaks french unless you’re in like 1 specific state out of them all

[lofty spoke]

Agent Gibbs in NCIS isn't building a boat in his basement so people can pay him for it.

[shrewd pumice]

ok but maybe the manga creator doesn’t speak english so he has to have someone translate it for him? that would cost money

unless if he used a volunteer, one who likely might not be the best

[lofty spoke]

We aren't talking about the manga creator. We're talking about people who do illegal scanlations.

[rapid marsh]

I can sorta read it, to get the gist. Can’t speak it to save my life except to ask if they speak English 😆

[rapid marsh]

I hear being Canadians contagious (old joke about apologies and canadians).

[lofty spoke]

I used to be able to, with my old highschool French teacher. After being hit by a car, I know next to nothing.

[rapid marsh]

Bad joke incoming. (And being hit by cars is shit).

[shrewd pumice]

well they likely just want to make it readable to english readers and aren’t the best at english, but someone has to do it🤷‍♂️

[rapid marsh]

Hit by car- attempted isekai without truck kun.

[lofty spoke]

Which is fair.

[shrewd pumice]

or they want to take a manga not available to english readers and make it english readable and then capitalize off the ad revenue on their pirate site so rather than pay for or care about quality they just pump out poor grammar translations

[rapid marsh]

Have a good friend who had been involved in a hit and run. Shattered his leg.

[lofty spoke]

Yeah, no. I just woke up on the other side of the guard rail, not being able to move cause my ankles were broken and my left arm was completely numb from nerve damage.

[shrewd pumice]

that sucks

[rapid marsh]

Crushed cartilage in the shoulder?

[shrewd pumice]

that’s terrible

[rapid marsh]

Cos that sounds like you landed hard AF on the arm/ shoulder

[shrewd pumice]

i’ve only had someone throw a hotdog bun out a car at me

[lofty spoke]

Not that I know of. It's been 3 years and my left thumb, index, and middle finger, up to my shoulder are still all numb.

Can't even play games with a controller still.

[rapid marsh]

Bruh, I’ve had a baseball bat to the back of the helmet while riding……

[lofty spoke]

I wish I saw it that way.

[shrewd pumice]

damn, u ride a bike?

[finite bear]

and, depending on how it happened you might even have gotten some unflattering credit at healthcare providers

[rapid marsh]

Might be worth checking the socket. I had a side slide years ago and landed hard on my right side, got cartilage that’s not how it should be.

[shrewd pumice]

need a motorcycle equivalent of a dash cam

[rapid marsh]

Yup, I ride. Had to replace that helmet.
Also had a brick come flying off the back of a truck (full face helmet became a very breezy helmet).

[shrewd pumice]

did the driver get caught or anything

[lofty spoke]

Lol, I'm loads in medical debt. Especially having epilepsy, too. People will call an ambulance while I'm seizing on the floor, and now I'm stuck with the bill.

[finite bear]

or insurance companies

[lofty spoke]

Police said it was a porcupine, even though I still have her right side mirror.

[rapid marsh]

That. Sounds like American.

[shrewd pumice]

what the f

[rapid marsh]

Ammirite?

[shrewd pumice]

what porcupine can launch a mf

[lofty spoke]

Imagine that the Norse Vikings that sacked Rome did less damage than Spaniards.

[rapid marsh]

One that’s paid off the cops

[finite bear]

i doubt the isekai medal of valor is awarded if you where looking at yer phone while unawarely passing a red light and listing to music.

and truck kun comes hitting ya

[shrewd pumice]

definitely, but canada’s not without problems but considering your need for medical services canada could definitely be a better place to live

except you might be put on a waitlist if anything urgent happens

[lofty spoke]

I thought I just had a seizure while coming home from work. Then I noticed couldn't get up.

[shrewd pumice]

you never know there’s also just criminally negligent or criminally stupid ones too

[finite bear]

my case was differend though, local conspirators wanted to implant a chip in my skull. so they arranged for the accident.

[rapid marsh]

Well, Australian politicians are trying their hardest to americanise the healthcare system over here…… currently we still have public healthcare that’s covered by taxes….

Seriously, if you’re gonna break a leg, it’s cheaper to do so in Oz :p

[lofty spoke]

Ah, the good ol "taxes aren't theft, there for the benefit of all".

[shrewd pumice]

hope that doesn’t work out, medical care shouldn’t just be for the rich

[rapid marsh]

Yeah, was that way.
Now the general practices are all going privatised for profit, and public hospitals are struggling.

[lofty spoke]

Well, this is all based around people conflating life being about thriving, and not just surviving.

[finite bear]

i think it was in the glue they used to fuse my skull shut agian

[humble parrot]

Holy shit, you're still going

It's been like 4 hours now

[finite bear]

isekai probably spawned, because they simply did it because anime girls are more attractive then they are.

[shrewd pumice]

[rapid marsh]

Human rights only count up till profit margins get involved 😆

[lofty spoke]

That's what happens when people's values are akin to what benefits them.

[shrewd pumice]

we having some interesting convos

[lofty spoke]

"Rights aren't right if they can be taken away. They're privilages." - George Carlin

[humble parrot]

If you say so

Have fun then

[shrewd pumice]

i doubt it’s been 4 hours considering my 4,999 ingots aren’t done

[lofty spoke]

Lol, good thing I'm not playing OSRS atm

[finite bear]

i mean think about it, falling in love with anime women will never produce off spring. so the human naturally has a self - defense mechanism in place. neutralizing it

[shrewd pumice]

yep been like an hour 40 max 🗿 just checked messages in the other chat

[shrewd pumice]

what on earth are u on about lmao

[lofty spoke]

Ummmmm, where is this in the convo?

[finite bear]

the origins of truck kun

[shrewd pumice]

bros just here to be a bother

lol

[finite bear]

well, im half-joking sadly

[shrewd pumice]

[olive seal]

Happy Mexican day!

[lofty spoke]

Are you talking about why incels write isekai?

[olive seal]

Meant independence day*

[shrewd pumice]

trying that oversummoned one of yall recommended

[rapid marsh]

That’s Palworld general chat topic that is.

[shrewd pumice]

the eyes are so whack

[rapid marsh]

[finite bear]

i dunno who writes what considering pen names are a thing, and can pass along with the art itself

[shrewd pumice]

that was my measure of time

[rapid marsh]

Not off topic though 😏😘

[olive seal]

Oh you here 😬

[lofty spoke]

The manga?

[shrewd pumice]

fair enough, didn’t think about pen names in my earlier comment

[shrewd pumice]

ye

[finite bear]

i caught a depresso and named it after you

[rapid marsh]

I have a GF and I still ain’t having offspring. Go figure that one out.

[olive seal]

Hope you no longer try to dm while high pls 😭

Or troll me in dms 😭

[lofty spoke]

I mean, for how many parents are parents in name-only, I don't blame you.

[rapid marsh]

Well, to be fair, I’ve got 0 paternal instinct and having kids = dramas.

[lofty spoke]

Nice.

[rapid marsh]

Plus the number of “dads” who “go for milk”

[shrewd pumice]

i’m gonna be one one day, provided it’s possible financially

[lofty spoke]

Since we're talking about manga and such, that initially caught me off guard.

[olive seal]

If you find me annoying try texting binkiboy while he high 😭

[finite bear]

maybe one day people will understand why i like fff-trash hero so much

[olive seal]

Glad my dualingo link helped ya

[lofty spoke]

I keep thinking that says Final Fantasy Trash Hero lol

[rapid marsh]

Thanks for reminding me to remove you from discord jail.

[shrewd pumice]

i think i tried reading it but dropped it, i don’t remember what it was about but the name is vaguely familiar

[rapid marsh]

Always fun 😆

[rapid marsh]

Honestly sounds like some weird gatcha game 😆

[lofty spoke]

Well, I just reread the available chapters of "Welcome Home, Papa" this morning.

[finite bear]

i was in discord jail?

[lofty spoke]

Lol, right?

[rapid marsh]

No. I’ve just met you, but you will be if you displease me 🤭

[lofty spoke]

WingsOfRedemption sniffs his fingers

[rapid marsh]

@olive seal I shall now be able to read your stuff without having to open it.

[finite bear]

does that include triggering your warhammer senses when i pick flambelle over katness?

[rapid marsh]

Sounds like Hoppawate (Australian rugby player).

[lofty spoke]

Nope. It's a fat lolcow.

[lofty spoke]

40k is plagiarism done large.

[rapid marsh]

Then that’s not me to worry about. @livid flume ^ you got someone who doesn’t like Katress 😆

[finite bear]

thats probably because there's a zodiac amount of chapters

[lofty spoke]

Pullin' out the big guns

[rapid marsh]

Agreed. It’s also overly expensive and not newbie friendly anymore due to the entry costs

[shrewd pumice]

i don’t particularly like katress either, definitely not to some peoples obsessive extent at least

they are a good early night worker tho

[lofty spoke]

But, again, people play the Witcher games without knowing it's plagiarism of Elric of Melnibone. So I can't expect the generic customer to know.

[rapid marsh]

Plus how they’ve got their 1 man, 1 store rule….. my locals got no tables for gaming/ painting. Only purchases/ mini of the month….

[shrewd pumice]

i don’t know any of the 40k lore😬

[rapid marsh]

Remember the chapterhouse lawsuit
GW lost that one, but unfortunately they nuked chapterhouse while at it, due to forcing them to cease trade during the case.

[finite bear]

well, my dark angels chapter is sticking with the cannon that the ashes on their armor are cremated in the flames of the flambelles

[livid flume]

pppppppfftt... only Pal, is

Katress

all other pals are Irrelevant...
Well, except for Bellanoir, Lunaris, Petallia, Galeclaw and Shadowbeak...
and uhm, ofc Chillet...

Flamebelle is cute, buuut, not THAT cute...

[finite bear]

as far as deathwing squadron goes

[rapid marsh]

I shall paint some tyranids in the colours of flammbelle. To represent the tasty hot snacks they ate.

Shame I can’t post pics in off topic.
Sir gribblemaw has a dark Angel arm he’s eating.

[shrewd pumice]

u can’t post pics in here?

[finite bear]

https://youtu.be/e6c5RZL9Skw?si=oNBvu7rkVVvJN85c

[rapid marsh]

Ewwwwww Smurfs

[finite bear]

do you know what ultra means? 😄

[shrewd pumice]

i’m afraid this is where i leave for not knowing whatchall talking about

👋

[rapid marsh]

No. Stay!

[shrewd pumice]

[olive seal]

Thank you

[shrewd pumice]

stagnated reading oversummoned cause i got distracted by the convos in here, but upon continuing a little it has the worst appraisal skill “ui” or whatever i’ve ever seen

why does it all run vertically lol

[rapid marsh]

It means that the loyalist dark angels are heretical dwarves that wear stilts in power armour.

And the fallen are loyalist dwarves wearing stilts in power armour.

Just pray your captain doesn’t trip over 😏

“Help me brother, I’ve fallen and can’t get up”

[finite bear]

now now, lets not get too worked up over purity unless we get completely sterilized.

[rapid marsh]

gun cocks

[lofty spoke]

Gun jams

[rapid marsh]

No, the fallen one must be put down.

[shrewd pumice]

[rapid marsh]

It is the dark Angel way.

[lofty spoke]

Is that Chillet trying to do math?

[rapid marsh]

(Says the guy with cypher in his chaos marines army).

[shrewd pumice]

chillet trying to produce a thought

[rapid marsh]

Chillet has no thoughts, only facial expressions.

[lofty spoke]

Lovander has thoughts.

[rapid marsh]

Yeah. Thoughts on how and when to get the next prey.

After that. No thoughts. Only lewd.

[shrewd pumice]

yknow i thought that was a weird start to a manga

possibly because i accidentally started on chapter 40

[lofty spoke]

People be like, "I'm here. Take me like a Hypno in a forest."

[cyan acorn]

hey guys

[shrewd pumice]

hello cas

[lofty spoke]

https://tenor.com/view/batman-derp-tongue-out-gif-8169679

[shrewd pumice]

tokyo ghoul fan?

[cyan acorn]

i own palworld on my xbox gamepass but it's on my pc so do i own palworld on xbox

[rapid marsh]

Omfg dying.
I still remember fire red hypno forest task….

[cyan acorn]

very much so

i love tokyo ghoul

[shrewd pumice]

tokyo ghoul was a fun watch

[cyan acorn]

now u gotta read it man it's a different experience with the same good characters

[rapid marsh]

Can agree there, was deffo a fun watch. The sequel was decent for 1st part, then I lost interest at G.O.A.T arc

[lofty spoke]

Lmao, I forgot about it. I was watching Presidents play Pokemon Emerald. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxkFH0tyc_Y&t=4582s

[shrewd pumice]

i’ve got such a long mainstream manga list i need to add it then

[lofty spoke]

Never watched it.

[cyan acorn]

you didn't like Va?

or you didn't like Re

[shrewd pumice]

the ending felt outa nowhere (of the anime) might have to rewatch

he changed his pfp

[cyan acorn]

RE isn't for everyone but Va is amazing

[cyan acorn]

it's still tokyo ghoul i have server pfps in servers i talk in

[shrewd pumice]

you can have a pfp specifically for one server?

[cyan acorn]

if you have nitro

[lofty spoke]

OOF.

[shrewd pumice]

i can’t be bothered to shill money for discord

also i’m fine with my stupid pfp lol

[cyan acorn]

i got big body bandz

so it doesn't bother me

(my friend buys my nitro)

[shrewd pumice]

i got a friend i bug into getting me a game i never play every once in a while

[rapid marsh]

Who changed PfP?

[lofty spoke]

Cas(?)

[shrewd pumice]

cas pfp was different when he first entered the convo

was the anime but now it’s a manga panel

[cyan acorn]

me and my friend buy eachother tons of stuff

food clothes games subscriptions

[shrewd pumice]

noice

[cyan acorn]

palworld is boring alone ngl

[lofty spoke]

Most multiplayer games are.

That's why I'm not playing Palworld atm.

[shrewd pumice]

it’s fine when there’s content to do 🤷‍♂️ i didn’t mind playing alone previously but now i started over with my gf

[cyan acorn]

i don't know what to do

i have pals working at a bade but like idk what to do next

[shrewd pumice]

what level u at?

[lofty spoke]

Set goals for yourself. Fight the towers. Explore.

[shrewd pumice]

get better pals, level if you can, get the good gold blueprints

and make the best base u can

[cyan acorn]

i could start breeding and stuff but how do i get wheat seeds

[lofty spoke]

I wanted to play for some PvP, but that never happened.

[shrewd pumice]

and when ur done then be bored and find another game

[shrewd pumice]

may be able to buy them from a merchant, not sure they normally find me

[cyan acorn]

the combat in this game isn't very fun i just die quick on foot

[cyan acorn]

i see

[shrewd pumice]

always have the best armor you can, and don’t put stats only in weight like me

[lofty spoke]

I find it pretty enjoyable. Still haven't really played Valheim or anything to compare.

[cyan acorn]

i'm level 31 i have 1700 health but like the lvl 16 penking boss still destroys me

[shrewd pumice]

i find it can be infuriating, go to gobfin turf if you think you have too good of a mood going

[lofty spoke]

Man, I really need to play more Sea of Stars.

[shrewd pumice]

damn, make sure u roll dodging if ur not but i feel u.

[shrewd pumice]

not sure i’m familiar with that

[cyan acorn]

what happens when sanity reaches 0

do they go berserk

and kill eachother

that would be funny

[shrewd pumice]

they just get some wicked illness or injury, or die. can’t remember

[lofty spoke]

Right up there with Palworld as one of the best indie titles made recently. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GI2M40j60Z8

[shrewd pumice]

make sure they have beds, and hot tub(s) so they regain sanity

[cyan acorn]

boring

[cyan acorn]

is palworld considered a well made game

[lofty spoke]

I mean, for having 2 million people playing on Steam at the same time, yeah. I'd say so.

[shrewd pumice]

early access, so it’s possibly a fraction of what it will be, but it’s pretty fun and appears well made

[lofty spoke]

Also has one of the best soundtracks in recent memory, imo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsRfNS-C3AA&t=69s

[shrewd pumice]

noice

not big on top down games but visually looks good

[lofty spoke]

Understandable. But I couldn't imagine not playing The Legend of Zelda GBA games cause they were top down.

[shrewd pumice]

i never have 😬

[lofty spoke]

That hurts to hear.

[cyan acorn]

i didn't know i thought this was finished

[shrewd pumice]

zelda minish cap released the year i was born or a year before

[shrewd pumice]

i don’t think even close

[small berry]

hmm

I'd recommend deleting that if it is what it is, cause of Discord

I might be wrong tho

[lofty spoke]

If you look on the Start Menu of the game, it says v0.3.6.57672

Completed games are v1.0

[rapid marsh]

Go at night. Kill him in his sleep.

[lofty spoke]

Fair enough. But, emulation is legal. There was already a court case for it.

[cyan acorn]

does that actually work

[small berry]

right, just being safe

[rapid marsh]

Yes

[lofty spoke]

50 cal to the beak

[rapid marsh]

Damn straight.

[shrewd pumice]

forgot to copy the link

[cyan acorn]

i don't even have guns yet lol

[rapid marsh]

Grenade to the head also works

[cyan acorn]

i'm using a crossbow and pelt armor still

[lofty spoke]

Oof lol. Google mGBA

[cyan acorn]

i think i'm under equipped for being lvl 32

[lofty spoke]

Ah, okay. If you want to raise you levels asap, catch 12 of every pal you can.

[rapid marsh]

Crossbow to the head “should” strip 50% health.
The trick is the get the pengullets out of the way first.
They’re the ones that kill you.

[cyan acorn]

i already did a bunch of those yeah

[cyan acorn]

there's no way crossbow to the head does more than 25%

[rapid marsh]

When they’re asleep, it does

[cyan acorn]

i'm abt to go try rn

[lofty spoke]

The more you level up, the more xp that is needed, so you'll gain lots more xp the more you keep at it.

[rapid marsh]

I find the musket is a good one stop shop and carries its weight well until you get rifles

[cyan acorn]

should i use lvl 32 xenovader or lvl 26 grizzbolt

cause if the types are like pokemon grizzbolt should be effective

[lofty spoke]

Facts.

[rapid marsh]

What you want is a grass

[cyan acorn]

i don't got one leveled

[shrewd pumice]

u can pause and click tips and see the elemental advantages in there

tips or guide i don’t remember what it’s called

[lofty spoke]

Elements are a thing in this game

[rapid marsh]

Water?

[cyan acorn]

nope

[rapid marsh]

Damn 💀

[lofty spoke]

Butterfly kicks and headshots

[rapid marsh]

Well, go at night, slap the pengullets and catch ‘em, then slap the penking, use pillars to hide

[cyan acorn]

alright

[rapid marsh]

Most times I don’t roll dodge, I just chuck a digtoise in the way and skidadle to a pillar, or I ride a shadowbeak for zoomy flys.

Did Axel and Oserk with an AK47 and a shadowbeak to ride on 😆

[lofty spoke]

I should be playing something right now, but idk what.

[cyan acorn]

i beat him in daytime

with crossbow and grizzbolt

[rapid marsh]

Here’s a reward 😆 (I’ve seriously been hunting for this)

heya.

[stoic mantle]

where do i got about messaging for a discord mod in this server?

[queen vale]

What's it about (I'm not a mod)

[humble parrot]

Good morning

[humble parrot]

Try DMing them

[small berry]

Be me, go to your yearly neurologist appointment, talk about this years episode and see the face of my specialist literally fall apart cause she told me the next time I was symptomatic they would put me under monitoring and try stuff out

I somehow forgot about that part and went about my pain not being aware doctors want to take a deeper look at me

This year simply can't get any better for me

losing money with crypto cause of desperation and degenerate gambling, United Airlines not expanding their flights to palma hence my work being the same ( not enough) and now another ridicule when I realise I might have learnt something about my condition if I had not forgot about what I had to do

Simply and utter desperation and shame is the name of 2024

lucky I'm still young

It hurts, it makes you feel lesser, it makes you doubt yourself, but I'd rather have made mistakes and tried again better than giving up on things

[small berry]

The only thing I need is a reliable stable job, I'm practically an english native at this point, it can't be that hard to find one

plus I've got the english certificates so it's not just me sayin it

I've found some job offers relating to "Language Data Annotator" that will focus on "creating diverse and challenging prompts for an AI assistant, ensuring they reflect real-world scenarios and cover a wide range of topics and styles"

That sounds fun, doesn't it?

Data Force is the name of the thing

[night plume]

I wanted to be nice to the people who sit by the breakroom door. So, I looked up the manual to the microwaves to try and put them in silent mode.
To put the models in the breakroom in silent mode, you have to snip a wire on the control panel....
They didn't add the function -.-"

[small berry]

"Snip a wire on the control panel" Wha-

[night plume]

You have to open it up and snip the wire to the speaker

Which is on the control panel

Normally, a microwave has a button or a button sequence you press to turn off the sounds. The models my work bought does not have these features according to the manuals.

The instructions are to disable the speaker.

[small berry]

Aylmao

"Silent mode, check page 15"

"Cut Speaker cable"

[night plume]

So, I was not able to be nice to the people by the breakroom :(

Other news: cheesey baked potato and egg scramble for breakfast.
||I broke a leftover baked potato up into some scrambled eggs and added cheese xD||
With coffee.

[queen vale]

Rewire it to a train horn
Can't hear a beeping microwave if you're deaf

[small berry]

now that you mention that, you made me think of a guy at work, the guy has been working there like his entire life, loading bags into planes, the guy barely knows how to write properly, but he has such a gigantic passion for good eating and finding the best restaurants in our city, I should create social media accounts for the guy and help him write scripts

plus the guy has this "Ugly" but charismatic thing to it

I think people would love him

[night plume]

I love finding places to eat bc a local recommended them.

[small berry]

He's literally a rough gem when it comes to that

he finds small restaurants with michelin stars, he finds local restaurants with the best whatever dish, the guy is amazing

he came to us today with like a 15 restaurants we should try, an entire A4 piece of paper with its highlighted stuff and whatnot, cute and inspiring

[night plume]

I hate when I look up restaurants in my area and it is, "this famous person liked this place" or "voted number 1 by locals bc we polled random out of towners"

[small berry]

yeah no, he goes there and tests them himself, multiple times even

he basically lives for that, probably spends most of his money

some of the restaurants are like 30 bucks a meal

[night plume]

If I vacationed and found a random food blog by a local, that is where I would go.

[small berry]

Between this guy and then the others that are interested in investing some money but they consider themselves too newbs and obsolete for it, I think I should become a manager

Create social media for the food guy and give some essential classes and create an investment plan for the other guys

[night plume]

I heard from some coworkers that a guy that used to work here eats free at almost every restaurant. He leaves very well worded reviews that get a lot of looks and the restaurants ask him to come in and try things in exchange for a review. If he leaves a bad review, they beg him to come back so they can fix it.

[small berry]

now you're kinda peaking my interest

maybe I should actually help the guy get more eyes on him

[night plume]

I considered leaving reviews, I just don't want to go out to eat and take notes.

[small berry]

I've only left one review in my life, very negative one, apparently it got one of those awards of being helpful and whatnot or they made me a local guide, some absurd thing like that

[night plume]

Pique btw.
I think both work, but the word for becoming interested/stimulating interest is pique. "Piquing interest"

Wanted to share bc I find the word neat.

[small berry]

nice to know, they're synonims but different spellings?

maybe it's a british english american english thing

[night plume]

Sound exactly the same. I think you are supposed to use "piquing" in that sentence, but, personally, I don't really see or understand anything wrong with using "peaking" bc it would just mean it is going to the top of your interest

[small berry]

apparently peaking could be used as a way to convey the sense that the interest has reached a maximum point

piqued my interest is that it grabbed your interest

"However, when you want to convey a subtle yet significant spark of interest, “piqued my interest” remains the most accurate and idiomatic choice."

[night plume]

I really need to change off of Google so I can more easily find answers xD

[small berry]

LeoAI, this shit works

The idiom is piqued my interest

but you can say peaked my interest, maybe one day we'll call that an idiom

the idiom is for subtle yet significant spark of interest, the "Peaked my interest" would be some kind of organic new idiom to use as a superlative

imho

[night plume]

I like that both can be used. Glad to know the difference in the usage

[small berry]

if people think they're using the idiom saying peaked, they're wrong

but both are correct

probably not something you could pass as correct in an english exam tho

I think the most accurate would be to call it Argot

or an Urban expression

In the end people can make up all sorts of expressions as long as you consistently get the correct message conveyed, I remember once a guy threw shade at me for saying Halvening, instead of Halving, when Bitcoin halves its rewards, cause people call it that making a wordplay with the "Happening" and "Halving"

"The word Halvening doesn't exist, why are you calling it that, you don't know what you're talking about"

[night plume]

I say "wenting" when leaving to go someplace.
"We are doing the wenting!"

My dad would say it as a joke and I thought it was cute and kept it.

[small berry]

Pretty much, that's why languages are dope

I'm extra talkative today, I've seen a photo of the "UFO" that theoretically was spotted by some jet fighter pilot and his onboard system tracked the "object" and the guy went on TV and whatnot and told people what he saw, anybody remembers this? https://imgs.search.brave.com/7qw0cXbcYJSo2OedC6My5kkAds4ZZKHPN3DflqQx1wo/rs:fit:860:0:0:0/g:ce/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cu/dGhlc3VuLmNvLnVr/L3dwLWNvbnRlbnQv/dXBsb2Fkcy8yMDIx/LzA1L2FiNjBmMmUx/LTlmYjctNDNkOS05/ZWVmLTNmY2ViYmZl/ZjM3Mi5qcGc

I saw I think it was a science guy, he started reading what those numbers are saying, did some math, estimated the object to be the size of a duck moving at the regular speed of a duck, that's what the instruments say, but the Army still "allowed" the guy to go on camera saying that it was an UFO, when his instruments were pointing to an average moving Duck

Maybe the Army wanted to spread the idea that it was an UFO even when it knew it wasnt, put that in your pipe and smoke it

[night plume]

There are cotton fields around my house. Large fields.
One of the fields, the owners live on the property and you can see their house from the street.

They or their kids decided to buy a drone. They then fixed up this drone to look like a flying saucer :p they never flew it during the day, only at night, near the road, just low enough that you would think you saw a weird looking distant plane, or freak out when you saw the form.

I kept trying to figure out what it was bc it was the weirdest crop duster I ever saw and I almost ran off the road laughing when I got a good glimpse of it.

They either got bored and stopped what they were doing or were told they had to stop since it was obvious they were flying it by the road on purpose.

[small berry]

If they caused an incident and cops found out they probably were told to stop or be sued

idk why my brain said instrument

[night plume]

Probably bc I called it a crop duster which is an instrument

I don't think they caused any incidents, but I wouldn't doubt there were phone calls to authorities over it

[small berry]

If people make money with it, people will keep selling it

what I said about UFO's implies the army deliberately created a conspiracy theory, probably to get more money to fund itself

maybe those farmers should have contacted the Army

or just created a podcast and go bigger with their operation

[olive seal]

Today I discovered that if you go to Xbox store section of all deals, you will not get to see all deals 🤬

Some games for god knows what reason don’t appear there even if they are heavily discounted

Who’s stupid idea was that?? 😭

[humble parrot]

If less people know about a sale, less people buy it at a lower price and more people buy it at the regular price

[olive seal]

Thats sooo annoying

On the good side I got two “exclusive deals for finishing x game” so that’s new and like it.

Tho im never buying the mafia collection games again

[bitter rover]

Ebay uses similar schemes. they will never show you the lowest price in a regular search.

[night plume]

Moving a physical product at a discounted price is profitable. You have sold the product and made space for new product.

Selling a digital product at a discounted price is not profitable. You do not need to move the product as it does not take up space and is not keeping you from selling other product.
Selling it at a highly discounted price is only profitable when it is not selling and will be forgotten. Then you are last ditch efforting to get some money.

[olive seal]

It makes a lot of sense but am poor and still trying to stay all digital 😭 why punish the poor 😭😭😭

[night plume]

Product is not for the poor.
Product is for those who will spend.

[olive seal]

I’ll spend just not 70 dollars rn 😭

[small berry]

that's if you don't take into account secondhand market

sometimes a discount is a way of adding more product in circulation so less people are inclined to go second hand, afaik

something about the really complex nature of the lifespan of a product

but then there's resellers

idk how companies even calculate how much their stuff will actually be worth over time

the last part I mean

I'm guessing digital companies keep track of resellers and do their best to disrupt their business

[teal iron]

I think the opposite is true

In order for an item to be profitable, you have to sell it at above the cost of its production, shipping, etc

Physical items cost money to make and are sold at a markup of that cost to be profitable
A discount may or may not dip below that red line and then the only thing you gain is removal of what could be considered clutter

[small berry]

So far this is what Mal argued

[teal iron]

The same principal is true of digital products but producing them is basically copy paste and shipping them, well, most stores probably have arrangements with their ISPs to keep the operating cost per item to near zero
Data storage is expensive but it was already paid for and you don't need to actually store each copy of Adobe Photoshop that you're selling

Just a product key or something and then copy the "master" files when someone buys it

Well we don't use keys anymore now you just sign into an account

Like if steam/pocketpair sells you Palworld for $25 instead of...what $30 normally?
It's less profit than the full price but it's still basically pure profit

But if GameStop sells it for below the cost of buying the units then they're just losing money

[small berry]

you mean it doesn't have the same expenses tied to it, it's not pure profit

[teal iron]

Which, they themselves are buying it for less in bulk but it isn't basically free like the digital transfer

[peak folio]

Definitely not pure profit

[teal iron]

Steam's expenses for transferring games to users is like
A rounding error for their revenue

[peak folio]

Hardly.

But they also had to make the game.

[teal iron]

You also have to r&d to make a physical product

[small berry]

There's probably all sorts of psychological schemes to extened the life of a digital product post release

[peak folio]

yey

[small berry]

That's why great Chinese phones sold for like 30% or less than its competitors for a while

they managed some good specs one way or the other and they had no R&D costs

apparently R&D costs for phones is gigantic

[teal iron]

Every product, in addition to paying back the costs of its individual production and shipping, must also contribute collectively to the research and development cost of creating it as a concept

And all of the products must cover the company's overall expenses

Digital assets kinda behave in this scheme as more of a liquid than physical where things are carved in stone

[peak folio]

Interesting point of comparison.

[teal iron]

If Ford makes 5000 f-150s they have to sell 5000 f-150s for close to full price or they just lost money

Well
Maybe they have a ridiculous markup idk

[peak folio]

Gross margin on vehicles is not very high.

Unless you’re Tesla.

[teal iron]

The point is
They can't decide actually we wanna sell more of this other car

[small berry]

So they're all in on absorbing the second hand market in this

very smart of them

[teal iron]

Digital assets are
Once you get over r&d it's effortless to sell it, provided that your net profits as a company cover arrangements for putting them on the market

[small berry]

Gross margin on 90% of things is apparently really low

1-5%

[teal iron]

If Palworld doesn't sell that's fine pocketpair can just market craftopia instead there's no backlog of Palworld copies that need to sell

[peak folio]

Many things is like 50%

[teal iron]

In this specific case you could argue the staff still working on the game but that's because Palworld and also craftopia technically aren't done with r&d

[small berry]

like?

Imma be looking to make those

[peak folio]

They have been accepting trade-ins on Playstation Direct

[peak folio]

like jewelry and stuff

[small berry]

Well Luxury items is like 5% of the remaining 10%

[teal iron]

the point is, most games on steam can probably be sold at discounts as extreme as 50% or 70% and still technically be profitable

[peak folio]

It really depends on what it is.

[small berry]

Always horizontal to prevent this 😄

[peak folio]

I’ve been using mine vertical and haven’t had the issue yet.

It’s happening to relatively few units

like the yellow light on the PS3

Not like the red ring or anything that severe.

[bitter rover]

yellow lights gets more prevalent as it goes. up to the revision 4 chip

they fail like crazy anymore

[peak folio]

Yes

[lofty spoke]

Gotta love manufacturers that don't make things to last.

[bitter rover]

yeah the ones I see are this or broken hdmi. the glowing lights fail to but they are not "necessary" (led)

[peak folio]

When they make hardware that produces an ever increasing amount of heat it becomes increasingly difficult to keep them from dying in every use case.

[bitter rover]

Well I mean it is liquid. it does flow quite a bit. then you get heat on a thin layer cause it has flowed a bit. and boom dry

[bitter rover]

all depends on the amount of airflow in the back. though my 3 tier is more open .

[clever jungle]

When I told this to my friend after it first broke he just said “why would you design something that looks like it goes vertical only for it to break if you do”

That was meant to reply to being about only horizontal oops

[peak folio]

And a massively larger GPU on the pro probably gets even hotter.

[small berry]

Is the Ps5 thinner than the 4?

[bitter rover]

its larger in everyway

[small berry]

makes sense

[bitter rover]

https://i.ytimg.com/vi/eVcFM-HsH4A/maxresdefault.jpg

[small berry]

At least now it has more room for stuff to ventilate and diffuse heat, right? Right?!

[bitter rover]

fan on it is pretty impressive. but ya need to clean it occasionally, but its easy to get to

[small berry]

So they solved those pesky heating issues from previous iterations? at least for the most part

[bitter rover]

i mean so long as you have enough room, it will go into thermal pretty easy if you have it boxed off

Final Fantasy 16 producer Naoki Yoshida has asked fans to please not make "offensive or inappropriate" mods upon the game's PC release tomorrow, September 17. https://t.co/llz7I78Jhl

Make them available for console.

[rapid marsh]

Ummmm, hate to break it, but the mods are standing by and ready to deploy on release

[night plume]

O.o whelp, they asked and shall receive a lot of mods.

[rapid marsh]

Modders get busy the moment a games announced and dev shots shown 😆

[peak folio]

feudal plea

futile

[rapid marsh]

I mean, there were mods literally day 1 of release available for palworld 😆

But yeah. Console mods. Those would be nice. I’m highly contemplating on getting a basic pc tower set up and asking a mate to upgrade it for me just so I can run mods 😒 this stage of the game, PC does what console does, better. Sure consoles affordable, but Sony AND Xbox have been dropping the ball a lot lately….

Plus having to pay subscription to “play online” while I pay my internets getting stupid.

[small berry]

I mean it should ensure a robust server infrastructure for them, that's why xbox live was actually good

psnetwork was down, xbox live wasnt

I'm bad with names, idk if those are the names

[rapid marsh]

True, but the “robust” server isn’t really all that robust for cloud gaming. There’s a tonne of issues still.

Starfield chugs on live, even with 100+ mbps which is above the recommended minimum. (Yeah, Aussie net is Stone Age…. Still……)

They’ve cheaped on those servers methinks.

[small berry]

I think servers in Oceania and most of Asia are just dumb expensive in comparison with others

they probably been cheap

[rapid marsh]

Plus the series X struggles to play Starfield now, might be the patches, might be Bethesda, but it’s still gone to hell.

[small berry]

Consoles are rapidly becoming gameboys

imagine playing the new GTA on something that isn't a PS6 pro or some uber version of it

how are they going to pull off consoles for massive open world games in the next 5-10 years?

Hi everyone! Hope everyone’s doing well!
(Not sure if this is the right channel for this, hope it is) I recently started playing the game, like 2-3 weeks ago, and tbh my PC runs literally 10-20FPS on LOW… I recognize that’s limiting my experience, but at the same time “If I’m enjoying the game like this… maybe more FPS and quality will improve my experience”
I’m planning on building a “budget” PC for myself, I made this on PCP: https://es.pcpartpicker.com/list/QpVCfy
I’m thinking about playing Palworld, BG3, AC Valhalla and maybe Black Myth Wukong, I’d be pretty happy to play them at 1080P 60FPS
Do you guys think that PC would work for that?
Thanks a lot for your answer, and also for taking your time to read and check, hope you have a good day 🙂

[trim sigil]

No worries 😉 thanks for being honest tho

[rapid marsh]

1080 60fps is decent. That’s what I play it at on my series X, even though i got 4k tv.
I’ve been long out of the pc game for years now, so I don’t know too much about newer techy stuff.

[small berry]

It's maybe taken decades, but justice is on its way

Apparently I've discovered a bug, idk to what extent it can be replicated, but in EU4 if I'm called to war by an ally, and I just save the game, and relaunch, that call to war completely goes away and your alliance is not broken for not helping your ally

Quite a massive bug

[night plume]

I have a brilliant idea....
Let's just NOT sexually assault people? Boom, a lot of problems solved >.>

[small berry]

It's Diddy, that's his middle name

[night plume]

That might be an intentionally kept bug. I know there are a lot of videos for different runs. It might be kept in for people doing certain runs and helping the ally would break the run.

[small berry]

Then don't ally the AI, that's the smart thing to do

afaik it's a new bug, tbh in 10 years I've never saved a game right when I was called to war

I've never heard of this cheese so I'm guessing it's not been there a long time

I guess France will have to kick everyones ass on its own

[final karma]

Hi JP. That is a very nice computer you've put together for the price. Palworld is not particularly resource hungry anymore, so as long as you have reasonable performance expectations what you have listed will probably work out fine.

A couple of caveats. You're choosing to build in a micro case, so heat dissipation could be an issue as you're going to need to run everything close to flat out to hit the numbers you're after. I don't see any type of proper CPU cooler in your parts list. It's virtually impossible to run any type of modern video game without active CPU cooling. Also, that video card while it meets the minimum requirement for PalWorld may severely limit what other games you will be able to run. You may not be able to hit your 60fps goal with that. I also do not see any kind of OS listed in your build, so be sure to budget for that.

[night plume]

Don't you have to ally some to change religions, have unions, etc?
My thoughts are: what if you are doing a run where you need to turn certain countries to certain religions. You ally to do so. One of the allies go to war and tell you to help. If you help, it will anger others and ruin your run. If you don't help, it will anger some and ruin your run.
(please note, I may have this game confused with others. My partner plays, not me and I am still trying to keep up with which is which xD)

[small berry]

Aren't microcases also "problematic" for some GPUs? cause of the size

[final karma]

Yah. That looks like a smaller card though

[small berry]

You can only force religion on someone when you've beaten them in war ( can't be done when the country is average sized cause it's too much warscore) or you can have a center of reformation that slowly converts nearby provinces

[small berry]

In this case it is a succession war, France inherited something but it's being contested by another major power

[night plume]

I would base your review of the parts on them wanting to play Black Myth Wukong.

And Baulder's Gate 3

[small berry]

It's 100% a bug, shouldn't happen, it's pretty strong cheese

[final karma]

Then I have no idea. I don't own BMW or BG3, so I can't run them to see what the resource consumption looks like

[night plume]

Ah. I don't know enough about building a pc to help, I just know both of those games are a bit beefy. BMW wants a pretty good comp from what I have been told by people playing it.

[final karma]

I'll just say that it should run PalWorld to a reasonable standard if the case will fit some kind of decent CPU cooler and drop it at that

[night plume]

Onwards to breakfast!
And if it is a pretty bad bug, should report it Nerzul o.o

[grand falcon]

@final karma here's what you should do

Find a shop that builds custom PCs, and tell them what your looking for(like what type of games your wanting to play)

And they'll be able to tell you what you need how much it'll cost and build it for you

[night plume]

You seemed pretty knowledgeable so I was just wanting to recommend tailoring towards the beefier games xD

[small berry]

never, this is my treasure now

[night plume]

XD I shall keep your secret, sort of. If I remember this convo this afternoon I plan to ask my partner about it lol

[small berry]

please do, I'd be kinda interested in knowing to what extent it can be replicated, next call to war I get I'm gonna try

Cinnamon and butter

Cinnamon butter is an amazing combo. Many people love it. Tastes best in whipped butter, it is fluffier.

[olive seal]

Didn’t know it was a thing, I’m loving it

[night plume]

Cinnamon toast is amazing. Finding it shocking how many have never had it.

Mix cinnamon and sugar in a container. The ratio is up to you for how sweet you want it.
Make toast.
Butter it.
Coat with cinnamon sugar mixture.
Shake excess back off in container.
Enjoy the amazing treat

[olive seal]

Had that on a bagel 🥯

I want more now

Probably not healthy

Also coffee and honey is the solution for coffee tasting awful

[night plume]

Cinnamon is good for you in moderation. Good for fighting colds, also great for weightloss and something else I can't remember. Just don't overdo it on the sugar (bread falls in sugar).

I do not like honey nor brown sugar in my coffee.

[olive seal]

I always thought it was a bad tthing, glad to know it isn’t. Thank you

[night plume]

Everything in excess is a bad thing. And a lot of things conflict with meds. Always best look things up and check what is best for you.

[olive seal]

Im not supposed to take aspirin or ibuprofen with my meds (basic over the counter pain meds) so yeahhh I get it 😅🥯

[night plume]

My favorite is when you go to the doctor, give them your medication list, make sure they are aware you cannot have aspirin or any kind of NSAID, then they prescribe you NSAIDS >.>

[small berry]

It's always lovely when doctors do that, I had that done to me when I asked I didn't want something, they gave me the same compound with a different name

It doesn't work, changing a brand will not have an effect, my kidneys will not enjoy it all the same

She had to pause and think about it when I asked for how long should I take this until I figure out it doesn't work

ended up with a box of meds that I have no use for

[night plume]

I flat out tell the doctors, "I will not fill this, I will not do a follow up to check how the medication is doing" before I leave.
If they still try to prescribe it, I cancel any followups and find a new dr.

The last dr appointment I went to, the Thursday b4 last, the dr told me what he was going to prescribe and I asked him to note what each was so I didn't fill what I didn't need. He told me, "how about I hand write the prescriptions, that way if you develop a cough, you can get it filled and if you don't you throw it away. I won't write the other ones since we both agree you don't need them."
I hate that he is an urgent care doctor, I would go to him as my primary just for that alone

My issue with the game is a me issue. I have exhausted what I enjoy doing in the game and want to expand a little on it.

But, another me issue is, I don't like modding games until I have beaten them, and I don't really have much of a desire to do what seems to be beating the game at this time.

In short: I am causing my own dilemmas xD
