Hrrrrrmmmm I think our hot water heater is dying. No one had showered today and it *when I set the bath to the normal angle for hot water it was colder than normal despite today's weather being much warmer than last time I had a bath. I filled the whole bath with it set higher and its still kimd of cool. We got our water heater replaced a few years ago too. Maybe our landlord just picked out a shitty one. That's probably it.

Even null distanced himself from Chris and ended sales of the silver coins with Chris on them tjat *that made him a shit ton of money (most of which was eaten by his defense attorneys) because of what he did. I really regret not getting one of those silver coins though.
>>1021144 I can't deny all of it but I finfmd his essay to be really funny. And also the fact that he wrote it at some point in the past year and only posted it today despite me asking him why he was ignoring me several other times.
Also I can't I can consistently spot Tilde And Rene And that's it Jan hasn't been here for a longtime (afaik) and I don't think Pan has either. There's a new guy who is also easy to spot And possibly some other people And I'm not great at differentiating people anyways
they fucking removed the option to have tabs as a simple list in the brave browser, and now it's this fucking card layout that you scroll through, and it's genuinely fucking nauseating to use it's that or a fucking grid, and that's arguably better than the cards but still sucks ASS
WHO COMES UP WITH THIS SHIT give me back my simple list of tabs a grid of previews sucks because you can't navigate more than maybe 2-3 tabs using tiny preview snapshots before you go fucking insane a fucking deck of cards is literally the worst method of flipping through ANYTHING that has ever been implemented into a digital device, in all of human history

idk they have floor but they don't have that sexy graph i wonder if the OS graph is of just OS sales or of all transactions
Also OS stats are just OS Or at least, probably, I doubt they scour the chain for any and all smart contracts trading an NFT for an ETH amount They just track the contracts made through OS
Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
yea almost certainly it would be hard to parse thru all the other transfers and discern which ones are sales
That and I know there are trades that don't show up in the OS ticker, and every time I've checked, any change in the graph on OS has a corresponding entry in the ticker
are y'all watching book of boba fett its honestly pretty good the last two episodes were all Mandalorian episodes lol but they were really good episodez s episode 2 was pretty sick too
i think mandalorian is nice bc its not really focused on the mystic shit of star wars no force or lightsabers really that stuff is just kind of background stuff in the story and mando is really cool
I guess I'll give it a look I'm bored a lot anyway
Really it's not like I "don't like" star wars or anything, it's more like the sequels don't really... go anywhere, for me The original 6 were like, a story, with a vision of sorts, and did that satisfactory But the new ones are like "here's more star wars" but there's nothing there >>1021240 Thing is, I don't even KNOW if I have
i still havent seen the final movie of the star wars sequel trilogy lol i agree though it doesnt go anywhere movie 2 of it is decent but everything else gets in the way of it
It really just feels like some guys in a boardroom saw the Public Domain clock ticking down and went "OK look we gotta do something with this or we lose it" So they Did Something With It, and that's really it
I'd love some star wars shit that just goes fucking hyperfocused on The Force and just fucking explores that for 4 and a half hours of screentime I'd be pogged as hell But it's gotta like, have a thing it wants to talk about, and then do that, it can't just be "more star wars, and we'll figure out the rest as we go"
Like Stargate: Atlantis was very, very different from SG1, but they picked a thing, and they stuck with that as the core of the show to build around, it wasn't just "more stargate" And I fucking love Atlantis And SG1 I don't even know if I can say which I think is better, though possibly SG1 because Atlantis doesn't do setup and stuff at the start in the same way, since it's not the first one
>>1021256 if you leaned harder into pokemon i would try harder to get you to play it it really is a rare instance in which they took tons of ideas from their previous works and put them together into something great.
>>1021257 the pokemon i like from gen 1 and 2 are in the game but i want to exclusively play with ghosts and fairies and this game isnt going to give me enough of them that i like
>>1021258 it looks good! it just doesnt have the pokemon i want to play with
He who cannot appreciate the glory of Mimikyu does not deserve life

Gen 5 is singlehandedly the best overall generation though And honestly I think Gen 3 gets a bit of nostalgia goggles which skews the fact that a lot of the game is spent surfing around Hoenn's waterways
Anno
I've heard there's a bit of an extra challenge in Arceus and it's easier than in most situations to get team-wiped And as someone who's been consistently disappointed in the total lack of difficulty in modern Pokémon games, that's kind of a draw for me
ToN
Battles are very fast and speed doesnt work how it normally does because its turn order based on speed and not individual turns where the faster pokemon goes first
every new pokemon game has new cute girls, so it can't be that much of a mistake

>>1021258 it looks like ahuge improvement but the world looms // looks so empty and pokemon just kinda stand around doing nothing I like the direction it's taking but overall just seems like too little to get me back into pokemon
Anno
How about I tell you about Sailor Moon Because it's got the boom anime babes which make me think the wrong things
there are pokemon who get pissed at varying levels and others who react shyly if they notice you so theyre mosty just vibing in their habitat
also empty? its full of pokes my guy and people who are afraid of pokes only the brave go out to dick with the wild animals
if you want events there are some quests that are generally simple but add a little interaction to the areas
Anno
pokes and some trees yeah
Kirara 🍄 大医 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
probably empty in the sense that there arent like things locations and events and stuff
Anno
I am optimistic if gamefreak keeps this formula though the mounts look real cool too
Anno
I saw a remark that said marketing it as a spin-off game was pretty clever of Game Freak Because for the most part, the game's mostly just a tech demo and proof of concept If they were going to present Arceus in the state it is as the next generation, people would probably be pretty pissed Instead they can test the waters and see how players like this direction while still also having an unfinished concept
I feel like calling it a tech demo and unfinished proor f of concept is underselling the game. But i can appreciate the remark about it being a spin off being a safer move.
>>1021287 Tech demos aren't inherently bad or incomplete games Breath of the Wild was a tech demo, Crysis is a series of tech demos But I do think there's some parts of Arceus that are representative of it being an unfinished proof of concept, which does not equal unfinished game Pokémon do mostly just drift aimlessly about until they detect you or you initiate an engagement with one There's a considerably separation from some of the core elements of a Pokémon game, which they have sufficiently explained in-world with suitable lore, but from a mechanical design perspective, the full form of Arceus as Pokémon game feels kind of fuzzy because of the missing attributes
>>1021213 I think I'd prefer for Saturday if you don't mind I didn't sleep until 2am last night
ToN
>>1021289 it kind of sounds like what youd view as an improvement in the first bit would be pokemon interacting with the environment like eating food or maybe bashing rocks, which would be cool but adds a lot of complexity. maybe a sequel could do that.
someone whose opinion on pokemon i give some value suggested that pokemon games in the future could ideally branch into games like arceus for their exploration and stadium-like or stadium-adjacents for the full battling experience, namely since arceus is missing a fair number of pokemon, moves, abilities, and the system itself is changed, and i could appreciate that.
>>1021291 By my understanding, part of the mission statement of Arceus is to go out and observe Pokémon on the journey to complete the first PokéDex, and from the gameplay I've seen, there's a lot of content in repeated encounters and use of Pokémon Having that, while having the Pokémon not interact with the environment or eachother independently of you, feels incomplete These are things, while adding complexity, would properly develop and enrich the whole idea they're going for with the game It weakens the proof of concept Which is why it's less of a problem that it's a spin-off game, they're not riding the main title series on what feel like unfinished or fuzzy concepts Not that they've exactly presented well developed concepts in the main series for a while anyway, but that's a different matter

I'm not really sure if I wanna put my bank card and stuff in the little card pouch in this wallet case on the one hand it's super convenient On the other, if someone were to nab my phone, it's probably best if they don't get access to my bank account along with it the phone's protected, the card isn't (up to a point)
this touchless payment stuff is kind of stinky because of that it's real convenient, but anyone who takes your card can just use it until you manage to lock it out, and if they got it by taking your phone, well, locking it out is gonna take that much more time
>>1021330 I have actually, sort of Though not like, face to face
When I was but a small childe, one of my stepbro's buddies stole like... around $80 from me in cash, hidden in my room, while he was visiting
But it's also very easy to just grab someone's phone out of their hand, and that's really the main worry Being robbed like, with threats, it doesn't matter if your card is in your phone's cover or in a separate wallet, they're just gonna take both anyway
It's unlikely to happen, but I'm a nervous gremlin and do not like it when it's easier to take my stuff
Yeah it was probably from like, christmas or birthday, I dunno for sure both those dates are pretty close for me, so even though I know it was in the summer sometime, that doesn't really help pin it down
I don't think I ever got it back, but we probably beat the snot out of that kid never saw him again at least, that's for sure >>1021334 yeah it's a lot I don't even know if I was saving it for anything in particular, I think it was more a matter of it being too much to reasonably spend in a short timeframe when I was like, I dunno, 8?

Found one of my Japanese baseball jerseys. Unfortunately I don't think my Hanshin Tigers jersey will fit anymore. This one does though. I'll keep the tigers one if I think it'll fit after losing a bit more weight.
Huh From the inside of it I can see the name Ando backwards but on the back it looks like a piece of fabric was sewn over it. Maybe he did something dishonorable but also they were too cheap to make a brand new jersey for his replacement. FYI this is from a corporate baseball team, not a pro team.

uhhhh are you sure about that Real Ale is a small brewing company out of Blanco it's like an hour-ish drive from where i live i've gone there a couple times they might use some similar distributing vectors but >>1021576 oh i see that's not the devil's backbone i'm drinking
i'm drinking Real Ale's belgian style trippel named Devil's Backbone
the brewing company (which officially does not have the apostrophe, because technically legally speaking they are Devils (plural) Backbone (seperate noun) ) is a completely different entity
>>1021580 the origin of the phrase is a set of roads near blanco texas
the movie might have come before the beer, but the brewery was started in 1996, so i'm not really sure it's named the devil's backbone for supposedly being haunted and people dying on it a lot but really it's just a beautiful scenic route and motorcyclists ride it a lot - resulting in deaths
>>1021586 well i don't know nothin about them others all i know is that real ale's trippel is definitely named for the devil's backbone that literally passes by their brewery

what i've only had one beer i'm just feeling angsty thinking about people choosing to purchase puppies from a breeder and indirectly sending another dog to be euthanized just kinda makes me feel a certain way

i only care about caffeine content sometimes i'll notice or think i notice a difference between different energy drinks but in the end it's mostly a question of if i'm getting enough caffeine to not suffer withdrawals in other words i'm 100% addicted to caffeine so all that matters to me really is that i get my 200 a day

you could just take the caffeine pills and sip on a pellegrino and call it a day

remember that it's measured in milligrams so not something you want much of i think 1 gram is considered the upper limit of what is considered "risky but not super dangerous" i know bodybuilders will push closer to 1.5 sometimes but 300-400 is like, definitely the normal amount you should limit yourself at if you don't want to hurt yourself over time
>>1021942 yeah im guessing it's all the other binding agents and filler that's insoluble, and the caffeine might be bound to some of those substances idk that's how it is with like vicodin and percocet, the opiate is soluble but not the acetaminophen and other stuff there's some way that you can crush it up, dissolve it into warm water, then chill the water in the freezer for just a little bit and strain it out so that the water soluble stuff is separated from the chalky globular mass that's left behind
i'd have no way to know if i did it right or not though and i could just imagine the frustration of drinking my homemade brew and trying to guess whether the caffeine made it into it or not just from how it makes me feel placebo hell YEAH ITS TOTALLY IN THERE I FEEL IT ERR WAIT MAYBE NOT I DONT KNOWWW
i love lappland
the utilitarian in me just can't really see why i'd go through the effort anyways part of what justifies drinking energy drinks for me is that i do enjoy the drink itself going through the effort to make my own (likey objectively less enjoyable) energy drink when i could just take the caffeine pills straight up and drink something else or just get an energy drink but i guess it's just a thought experiment it's not like any of us are gonna do this
月
>>1021950 idk it's not uncommon for me to take three 200mg pills and have some caffeinated beverage on top of it caffeine's danger zone is something insane like a few grams PER kilogram of body weight literally more than you could consume unless you downed a whole bottle of pills
but yeah if you've got heart problems you could have an adverse reaction i got heart problems though and i do fine in the 600-800 range i don't recommend doing that daily though
i love lappland
>>1021954 yeah i mean a definitely lethal dose is like 5 grams or more but that's in a vacuum there's also other things to consider, and just because it doesn't kill you that day, you're hurting your heart it's like smoking 3 packs of cigs in a day isn't going to kill you but over time that kind of thing takes a toll on your body's systems
i love lappland
there's also ineractions with other substances not directly, but taking something that increases blood pressure, or something that can increase heart rate, or even something that can cause anxiety all can make for a shitty time if you're doing a gram of caffeine
月
and it uses the same cytochrome enzymes in the liver during metabolization as alcohol, acetaminophen, and various other substances liver damage is not as linear and straightforward as the other organs though it's a bit more nuanced but still give your liver a break whenever possible especially with acetaminophen jesus that shit is awful
i love lappland
then you also have to consider dependency and the marginal increase in sought-after effect after 400 mg >>1021957 god i hate how many OTC drugs have acetominophen in them i get that the reason so many of them have it is literally the reason i wish it wasn't there but still frustrating
月
i mean it's also a fever reduces so it makes sense to go in the nyquils and stuff but in all the other shit it's literally just a filler to prevent substance abuse which makes no sense because the aetaminophen is more dangerous to the liver than the thing they don't want people to abuse
i love lappland
yeah but they could just as easily do aspirin or ibuprofen couldn't they
p sure it's mostly yeah that
but sometimes ya boy just wants to chug some syrup damnit
idk but i hate acetaminophen and the way it makes me feel it's the most nauseating feeling i'd rather deal with a fever and migraines
i love lappland
i don't really feel anything when i take it just minor symptom relief for pain in general sometimes at work we take it with ibuprofen if it's gonna be a really rough day also i'd take it if i had particularly bad DOMS when i was working out more which i should get back to doing
ah i'm remembering back to when they gave me tylenol 4 after the scooter accident i hated that shit i mean i kinda liked it but also it kinda gave me a headache the only thing i liked was that it really did deaden the pain and knock me out but if i didn't go to sleep it was like this weird headache the hydros were way better for sure the worst was uhhh it started with a T tramadol? it sucked only because it basically didn't do shit like i got better pain relief from ibuprofen by itself than the tramadol

>>1021968 yeah that wasn't the case for us i bet they get a bunch of people like us who don't know such is life
it's just a cover for my phone one of those that covers the screen, with a little latch to keep it close closed*
it's got pockets for my cards and a pocket for bills nothing for coins, but that's understandable, I dunno how it would even fit that anywhere
I wasn't gonna initially, but I think I'm just gonna start using it for my money and stuff too, don't gotta carry around the little wallet i have that way
ah i don't really like phone covers and my phone insurance is really good so i just go naked i've got one of these old school wallets even though it seems like a lot of people have switched over to things like money clips or Ridge-like wallets and a lot of men carry cards in their phone case or even those extra big wallets that used to be a women's purse kind of thing i really don't _need_ to carry a wallet at all cause almost everywhere i buy stuff has google pay and in texas you're allowed to have your ID and insurance on your phone
S C
I just have one of these tiny tiny wallet things it's really just a card holder with a slot for cash if you open it up fully But I really only use it cause I don't wanna just put my license and bank card in my pocket without any sort of shielding
i love lappland
for me it's kinda just a habit thing my routine is setup so i just have to remember "phone wallet keys" whenever i go anywhere
S C
it's basically just habit for me too but whenever I use my card for anything on the computer, which really is just buying a video game every 5 months, I tend to forget to put my card holder back in my jacket, so I've ended up at the grocery store without my money a few times
But I don't forget my phone, ever So at least this'll cut down on that
i love lappland
ah i make that mistake but with drive-thru food they hand me back my card and i just put it in the passenger seat mindlessly and then wonder where my card has gone when i'm in line at the grocery

see that's exactly what i mean though i like math but mostly in some abstract sort of detached way i don't have much experience with it so whether or not i like it, the question you're leading into probably won't really be any easier for me to answer should i say i like division or subtraction? should i bring up crazy quantum models? i'm kinda deliberately overreacting because the absurdity of this line of questioning is just so confusing to witness
if i were to try to answer that question sincerely i guess i would say either ballistics or the math that gets involved with mechanical physics, specifically in regards to manufacturing, firearms, and vehicles
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
>>1022057 Okay, cool. I don't really know how to further this conversation, sorry. I forgot what I was gonna ask.
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
I guess have you ever worked on those types pf problems?
the only math i've done since high school has been pretty basic algebra and geometry when they rarely come up for work some spreadsheet stuff for WoW and for tinting windows and for when i managed a panera nothing more advanced than what they teach in middle schools as much as i think mathematics are cool, and even though i'm sure i'm capable of learning it it's just never been something i need to know, so i've never learned much about it
I guess I'll get back to my math book then. I was just trying to figure out if you were someone I could talk about math with. I read a lot of math stuff and like sharing what I learn. I had remembered a conversation with you from a while ago where you mentioned reading a lot of nonfiction so I thought maybe you read math books too.

Rei !p8eYCadcMo
Also funny story I never learned long division. I've never seen it explained to me in a way I understand. I kind of want to know it, but there's always other stuff I find more interesting so I read about that instead. I mainly want to know it because it comes up in higher mathematics where you do long division with polynomials instead of numbers. Or other stuff.

I hope my back stops hurting soon. I'm kind of stuck on the couch. It's a really intense pain but its the "you really need to crack your back" pain.

that's the question! how do you steal a cube like that weighing god knows how much surrounded by 10 million people
central park is closed from 1am to 6am you gotta get it on the dolly and move it into a van quick as the van is driving away, people in the back break it into smaller pieces then they meet up with some other cars at a parking garage and split it all up between some other cars everyone goes their separate ways while the van changes its plates and goes about its business

Alpha radiation isn't that bad if uts o *if it's outside your body. I mean I wouldn't recommend wearing a radium watch band or anything but a little exposure isn't too bad because the particles are so heavy that they can't penetrate your skin.

Back in the day, radium based paint was used to paint clock faces to make them glow in the dark. And so the clock companies would hire young women to paint the clock faces, and they would lick their brushes to get the bristles to stick together before dipping them back into the paint. And after doing that for a while, they would get sick and die. This was in lile the 20's and 30's. And their graves are still radioactive to this day.
>>1022120 I think that's what they call a cube root
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
>>1022132 So fun fact I did not know what that was from when I first saw the black parade lyrics I saw it in amv hell And it was attributed to kim jong un. And I had never heard the song until years later.
>>1022133 Yeah I'm really disappointed in them for this. They shouldn't have to explicitly lie to get people to think supporting the Ukraine is a good idea.
i dont think they care if people think that supporting ukraine is good or not i think they just want to stir shit with russia and ukraine is a good place to do it right now even though ukraine is asking us not to
>>1022146 I don't think they need to lie to get people to support sending US troops to the Ukraine. It's not that hard to get people to dislike Russia and weve been sending troops all over the world in mostly pointless conflicts with flimsy justifications for like 70 years.
Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
flimsy justifications aka outright lies
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
>>1022148 Well I mean The US did think letting Vietnam fall would a domino effect. I'm okay Well Not okay But I'm not entirely of the opinion that the korean war was a bad idea mainly because all of korea would be like north korea if not for US intervention. Not sure what they used to justify that at the time.
The US murdered like 15% of the entire population of north korea during that war literally more than a million of people we spread diseases there, poisoned water supplies, just absolutely went in on war crimes to the north koreans a unified korea is probably better than what we did
straight up though we should have a world war that just like wipes out everything i mean why not we've been stuck inside for two years i think we could treat ourselves this once

>>1022305 queen to g5 seems pretty good for white right what did he end up doing
Anno
wouldn't that just be trading white's queen and knight for black's bishop?
i love lappland
no cause white' knight is watching g5 you could also send your bishop in to start clearing pawns it's not a super good move but it's better than anything else i think
Anno
ok wait so white queen to g5 then presumably black bishop takes on g5 king is in check so white knight to g5 or move the king if knight takes the black bishop, black queen to g5 right? am I missing something?
i love lappland
oh i missed the king in check but you could just move the king further right but you lose a turn i still think it's no that bad though probably better than just taking bishop
Anno
I would probably move white queen to d2 but white is in a pretty bad position there
Samu ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
white loses the queen in any case they resigned in that position
i love lappland
if you bishop to e6 they have to take it because their king is in check so you can then well that's still kinda bad but not as bad as the previous situation i posited def not as bad as losing quite yet do people throw games like that often i feel like the most improvement to be had is in playing things like that out
Anno
I think in that position it's an inevitable loss assuming your opponent doesn't screw up really bad maybe if you're up on time you could cheese out a win but resigning isn't a bad choice tbh
i love lappland
is there a way to set this game up and play it out, i'm curious about weaseling out of it

what they're all made up i was kinda joking because obviously genres are useful when you're searching for music that you want to sound like other music but i much prefer to to leave genres as mostly just points of reference to describe sounds that are otherwise difficult to compare easily they aren't really static facts about an artist as much as they are just relative descriptors
