I hooked up my Wii and am trying to play Wind Waker. I bought it at release in 2003 and never finished it. I 'm so lost, I completely forgot how to play this and have no idea why I 'm on Windfall Island at night with no people around.
>>448817 The Wii is from 2006. Not that old, really. I only use it as a second Gamecube.
I remember last christmas I saw some old couple buy a Wii from retail. It wasn't even advertised as for sale. I wonder if they just have a bunch sitting around at EB games.

I love snow but I've only seen in by chance in Spring in Wyoming, so it was mostly gone, and on Pike's Peak up in Colorado. I saw snow come down in Denver once, and flurries out near Cripple Creek in Colorado, but never seen it come down enough to coat the ground. Pike's Peak was fun. I almost busted my ass walking on ice for the first time, but my friend grabbed my arms as I was falling and kept me up, haha.

"Kärnä says that he has talked to Puigdemont about a possible arrest warrant on Friday at a lunch. After lunch, they stated that if an arrest warrant was issued, Puigdemon would either have to register with the Finnish authorities or leave Finland for Belgium where the extradition process is already in progress.- President [Puigdemont] chose the latter and, in my opinion, rationally. The process of extradition would have lasted for a long time in Finland and would have prevented him from continuing to spread the message of democracy, human rights and nonviolence in the world. The President also confirmed to me today that in Belgium he will work in full cooperation with the local authorities, Kärnä says." machine trnslation

Do you know what the I ching is?
TNsk
I don't know a thing about japanese mysticism
FormerRei@mobile
It's not Japanese, which dies prove your point I guess. *does
FormerRei@mobile
Anyways it's a Chinese divination method.
sk
Oh the sticks Yeah the trade minister does that stuff now and then, but it's not been particularly important seemingly He writes in Japanese and it's not translated, after he throws them or whatever I mean, so I dunno what he's divined other than the first time
FormerRei@mobile
Have any novels been mentioned?
FormerRei@mobile
Also fun fact: the I ching was consulted by the author when making significant decisions regarding the plot.
sk
>>448923 The bible was important for a bit, that's the only book I can remember being mentioned

Anyways, Phillip K Dick is a damn good author so its no surprise that they made a great miniseries from one of his books. Especially considering that the book won a Hugo award.

You could learn to sculpt and make it yourself.
Kirara 🚗
it would probably be easier to learn modeling and painting and 3D print it and paint it
FormerRei@mobile
That might be easier, but it would be more expensive. It's really expensive to 3D print big stuff. For sculpting you can just reuse your clay. Learning both would probably be best though.
Kirara 🚗
good point

I think I'd rather wait for the powers that be to decide a kyouko figure would be cool than put that much effort into something I only sorta want
That's a good investment Also I found a job to apply for that I think I have an over 50% chance of getting. So that's good.

>>448956 nyx yeah why are there two like i read that rhajat is like some kind of reincarnation so theres that but why BOTH in the same game
Kirara 🚗
>>448959 well nyx is actually a pretty good character and super different but rhajat is in because tharja makes money and they reused a bunch of designs from Awakening and then explained them away as dimensional travel
FormerRei@mobile
If I get it I hope I can join a /moe/ trip.
ToN
>>448960 yeah from what little i have seen of nyx I like her I just thought it was weird since I would have assumed Nyx was the game's tharja clone since I didnt know about rhajat her personality is different but she has a very similar appearance
FormerRei@mobile
>>448960 I just realized something really funny about the term dimensional travel.
In physics and physical modeling, dimension implies units. Like you walk 6 miles. Miles are a unit. A number with out a unit is referred to as "dimensionless". So not traveling dimensionally in of itself means nothing.
ToN
>>448964 Im so not far into fates i was playing nohr and im like chapter 16 and i just started losing interest plus the patch not being done doesnt help so i run into all these untranslated supports
FormerRei@mobile
ToN, did you ever learn dimensional analysis?
FormerRei@mobile
It's also called "factor labelling" It's the thing in physics/chemistry/whatever when you always make sure to write the units next to your numbers so all the operations are done with the correct units.
Kirara 🚗
>>448966 yeah that sucks i think it was fine in the English i mean id prefer a better translation but the story is poor enough that a better translation wouldn't make it that much more enjoyable
FormerRei@mobile
Ten years ago I got it drilled into me by my chemistry teacher and he'd talk about how fformer students of his would contact him and let him know how thankful they were for him teaching it because its so important in science and engineering.

Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
You may want to wait until E3's announcements maybe There are some cool games like the new Kirby (which is short) and BOTW like you said. I haven't played Odyssey myself though.
Anno
>>449018 Oddyssey is a wonderful platforming collectathon. If you ever felt you enjoyed the classic 3D Mario games, Odyssey is definitely excellent in the same vein. Splatoon 2 is a fun multiplayer experience, but it doesn't offer much more than that. It does offer a LOT of multiplayer experience though. For RPGs there's Xenoblade, and Disgaea 5 and Dark Souls Remastered if you didn't get to play either in the past.
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
I tend to forget splatoon exists tbh
Kirara 🚗
>>449018 I had a lot of fun with the 4 or so games I got on it but I don't use it often. there are a bunch of things coming out over the next year or two I want though
Yuu
I still need to finish a bunch of the games on mine.
Maria
>>449018 Ask yourself how many games there are on it that you're interested in and whether or not you want to play them now instead of waiting for a price drop
Kirara 🚗
i mostly can't wait for the metroid prime stuff
Anno
I'm hotly anticipating the TWEWY remastered. It'll be a shame to not get the full DS experience but it should be fun either way.
Wikipedia already lists over nine-hundred games for the Switch, but a massive portion of those are on their digital marketplace, or not released outside of Japan. The outside-Japan hardcopy market for the Switch isn't too large at the moment, but if you're fine with downloading indie releases there's probably a lot of neat stuff that I've never looked into.
Maria
>twewy remastered >comes with a secret ending that teases twewy 2 It'd be so hype
Kirara 🚗
they are adding content to it a new route if i remember right
sk
ill buy a console when they make dewprism 2

>>449028 If it's another whole fully fledged route I'll be seriously tempted to get a Switch early
Kirara 🚗
the Nintendo shop says it has a new epilogue. I guess I misremembered.
Maria
Somewhat less exciting I like how in the DeSu2 remake you can just access the new route immediately if that's what you want
Kirara 🚗
totally new visuals on the switch remake too at least
Anno
Would be needed, really.
Kirara 🚗
oh yeah, switch has the bayonetta games too
Anno
A bunch of really good PC indies are also on it, like Celeste, Hollow Knight, Night in the Woods, Stardew Valley, and others. PC gaming is great and all, but the portability function of the Switch is a reaaaally nice component to it.
Kirara 🚗
shovel knight too
Honestly, the Switch's controllers are the most comfortable things I've ever played games with
Anno
Apparently if your computer is Bluetooth functional you can set them up to be picked up by your computer. Which means with some finagling you could use them for PC gaming.
Kirara 🚗
I'm looking forward to that upcoming Yoshi game. It looks so comfy and casual.
Anno
I'm hotly anticipating Switch Pokemon. Even if it's likely not out until November next year.
Kirara 🚗
Yeah, it'll be nice to see it without the 3DS's limitations.
Kirara 🚗
It's cool that the switch has a lot of kids games that are actually good, but also a bunch of adult games that are good Which isn't really something you get elsewhere
>>449042 Yeah. In the Wii era, Nintendo really stuck a home run selling themselves as a family-friendly platform, but in doing so they kind of shut out a lot of more "mature" gamers because of it. They tried to reach out with the Wii U to a slightly more mature crowd but the Wii U was a bit of a failure in several accounts, including that. It seems they've managed a good balance of the two now at least.
>>449044 The Wii sorta bit them on the ass when all the kids and casuals started playing on mobile phones instead of Wiis The Wii U didn't really seem to know what it wanted to do. It didn't go far enough to capture the family friendly crowd but it also didn't go far enough to get the 'hardcore' crowd Didn't really help that the ps4 and xbawks wan came out just a year or so after
>>449048 I'm talking in the long run post Wii life. The Wii was a success but it was one that lead into the situation with the U
>>449045 >The Wii sorta bit them on the ass when all the kids and casuals started playing on mobile phones instead of Wiis Except the Wii had a long, successful shelf life.
Anno
>>449045 Except that Nintendo had another hardware line that has endured throughout the smartphone craze and is still ridiculously popular in that group of "kids and casuals" that now play on smartphones.
>>449050 My point is the growing popularity of smartphones in those groups hasn't had as nearly a large impact on the traditional video game consumption that you're giving it credit for. The Wii U didn't flop because too many people were playing on smartphones. It flopped because Nintendo did almost no public ad campaigns for it, made no effort to distinguish it from the Wii, and because it took like a year-plus for them to actually put out flagship titles to sell the console with.
Maria
>>449049 The DS is not the Wii and is not what I was talking about. The DS was able to capture both hardcore and casuals so that when many of the casuals left the 3DS was still a success. Consider too that the 3DS sold about half as much as the DS. Still a huge success but clearly smart phones had an impact. Yes the Nintendo managed the Wii U poorly. The point I'm making is that the "hardcore" crowd left Nintendo for the more powerful machines and that a large chunk of the casuals and family market that carried the Wii were not sticking around I'm not saying it's any one single factor but that it is certainly one of them.
Anno
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how amazing a console the purple lunchbox was?
Maria
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the fact that Sin and Punishment 2 exists and it's perfect
Maria
>>449051 It was pretty good Having gamecube compatability is ones of the best bits of the Wii
>>449053 I really need to mod my Wii so other systems can be emulated. It's meant to be really simple to accomplish too.
Maria
I've done it. It's a pretty easy softmod
Anno
>>449057 How does it handle PS1 and Dreamcast emulation?
Maria
>>449058 >Dreamcast emulation Not on the Wii I'm not sure about PS1 emulation. I remember 64 being pretty decent. I haven't used it in a while
Kirara 🚗Anno
>>449058 ps1 emulation isn't that great.some games work but most haveI bad glitches or don't boot. PSP is really good for playing PSX gamesI and cheap too if you're interested in a handheld emulator. otherwise best to just use your average toaster PC with a controller adapter.
My family has a real love for Chinese take-out. I think it was a bit of a date night-y meal for my parents when they were dating, but we seem to jump for it every few weeks or so. Not that I mind really, it's tasty. But you get so much of it, and stuff like fried rice or chicken balls don't really re-heat well in my opinion.
On top of that, what exactly is the kind of reaction to seeing a bird just poof out of existence like that. I feel a bunch of them that might've even processed it would be kind of confused as to how to respond.

prank culture is kinda in decline now that I think about it.
Anno
As it should be. It kind of peaked at a point where pranks were far too malevolent and harmful and less about creating a situation where everyone involved could have a laugh afterwards.
Kirara 🚗
Yeah, prank culture is really childish and stupid. It evolved into a lot of horrible stuff like that trend of dumping boiling water on someone.
FormerRei@mobile
Wait, did people really do that? Are you sure that isn't meta prank culture? Tricking people into thinking that that's a prank.

there are videos of it on YouTube unfortunately ive seen quite a few of them they show the burns and stuff too sometimes there was a lot of news about people in the hospital from it late last year too

Someone in a Discord I frequent posted a gif of a guy leaning too far forward as a train's coming in for a stop and getting smashed on the hand and head by the train. It's likely not lethal and probably not too serious considering it was uploaded from his phone or whatnot, but it's still not something I enjoy seeing. And what's more annoying is Discord auto-plays gifs like that so I wasn't even expecting it.
Kirara 🚗
i usually laugh after me and my friends get hurt but that doesn't mean i think it's funny getting hurt makes me laugh but not because it's funny having been in serious pain, i can't enjoy other people experience that feeling
Anno
If a friend gets hurt I can both find it kind of funny and be worried about them; I don't see how I'm not allowed to experience both those emotions. If it's clear the injury or experience was very painful for them though, again, the enjoyment of the situation drops to zero in a snap.
FormerRei@mobile
I can appreciate that. Well, understand The laughing when its not funny thing is weird.

And that image was pretty funny, I remember feeling bemused. But I was also trying to figure out how to get you up and leaning on my shoulder or something. But I haven't ever had to do that for someone so I didn't know where to start. Which in itself was also kind of stupidly funny.

What the hell wdid you do?
Kirara 🚗
I destroyed my knee a long time ago and there are certain ranges of movement that my knee doesn't handle well. If I make a jump poorly or run with a short pace, sometimes it messes up my knee and I can't even stand on it. It's because I was climbing through a creek like 7 years ago and the rocks were slippery, and I slipped and smashed my knee, but was too poor to ever have it looked at. My other knee has been hit with bricks before, so it can give out under certain circumstances, but is generally painless.
>>449167 The whole thing was kind of funny. But not really in a funny haha way.
dunno if taking an hour long hot bath is good for you when sick, but damn did it make breathign easier

Anno
"Starting" time has been midnight EST (so in like four minutes) for like half a year now or so. But Ika and RIka are easily distracted and have a hard time showing up promptly! And Ika in particular has had stuff that keeps him from showing up for the starting time recently.

>>449176 If I had easy access to a sauna I'd definitely use it when I had a cold. Steam helps you drain your sinuses. I forget the specifics but I think it causes the nasal passageway to open up more.

You could marinate it and leave it in the fridge.

No garlic salt? Onions will definitely help though.

then I will prolly make some risotto style rice as side dish with vegetable stock and some of them eat stock that comes out of the thing
if I had some sauce I could whip up some macaroni or rice and eat it with that to satiate myself rn all I have is some spices, mustard and fuckton of pasta and rice well I do have some tomatosauce, but I don't ahve the energy to cook up anything really

does that sound like a dish a sick person goes up and just cooks
FormerRei@mobile
Well, I was bringing up soup mix because you can make gravy or marinades with them.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
if I had a soup mix I'd make soup out of it

my options yesterday for futurem eals were >unfunf to cook unfun to eat food >roast >order and I felt like I would have the energy to do roast preparations and now that I have taken it out to melt, welp can't go back to other stuff

I'd like that to happen. Although my guess is that something in a print work would probably be the first place she appears again.

And then in the following season we're getting Grand Blue, another DIVINGU anime. Kinda. Totally.
meat set to gather flavour a simple spicing of salt, black pepper, some coriander and rosemary
Anno
what's coriander taste like?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
hmm hard to say especially when it has really mild taste when sampled as poweder
Anno
It's a bit citrus-y, I think? Smells a bit like that when adding to stuff, I find.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I think it goes well with many meat dishes
Anno
Oh yeah, it and cilantro are the same plant. I always forget that. So in that case coriander sometimes gets people who are genetically disposed to finding it a disgusting soapy flavour.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
yeah it is rare as fuck though
Anno
my mom doesn't like the flavor, but i don't think it tastes much like anything they put it in pico de gallo and i can barely tell its there compared to the tomatoes and onions and such
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but it is kinda mild in flavour anyhow so you could basically use it as thickener too
Anno
Yeah it's more of an accent flavour than something that actually drives the meal.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but man that beef is from 2016 CHRISTMAS been in the fridge for a while and wait... 3 different freezers
Anno
Guegh I get that meat keeps practically externally in a sufficiently cold freezer. But it still gets to me.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
meh it has been vacuum packed so it hasn't gone bad really but yeah no way I would serve it to guests or would it be served in the food industry
Anno
Eternally, even We've got packs of meat that have been in our freezer for who knows how long. My mother really likes to buy meat on sale since it keeps. But then she'll buy more meat on sale later on but use that newer meat instead of the older stuff. It's so weird to me
Anno
i'm not sure i've ever kept meat longer than maybe 10 months
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
It is good meat so I have just been waiting for a special occasion to eat it but... it never arrived so I was thinking of preparing it for easter for myself or if I have people over but then I went "waaaait, it has been in the freezer for..." and decided to eat it myself
Anno
>>449476 >buying things on sale you will never use steam syndrome
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Properly packed and kept cold enough, meat will last practicalyl forever in the freezer the question /the issue is to avoid the crysallisation that will ruin the flavour and texture
Anno
i've never really noticed any difference in 8 month frozen meat but i only keep meat that long when it's from a hunt and the butchers always vacuum pack meat they process
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but the cabbage head I tossed into the freezer it has crystallised badly I am bit conflicted do i wanna use it or just toss it away
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
it doesn't seem to taste odd and it just seems surface level btu still
Anno
damn i wish i had more deer sausage me and my dad ate it all so quickly but theres still a bunch of flank steaks and stew meat left
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
But I will prolly use some of the cabbage fry it a little and then lay it down on the container I am goign to palce the meat in then it will suck in the meat juices I will prolly toss some vegetable stock in there, though, so they don't dry
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
then steam rice and make a sauce out of the meat juices+stuff in the bowl and eat it with de meat and cabbages and onions and rice
Anno
i have never had good cabbage the only kind i have tried is boiled and its bad every time
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>449487 If you boil cabbage, you gotta boil it for eternity good cabbage soup is real delish like you see some "stir fry them a bit on the pan and toss them into the pot and cook for few hours" HAH try 4-8 then you will have it properly softened

i guess so i've seen a handful of skandinavian players, i can't tell who's who but the shoutouts were in some unintelligible gibberish that looked like someone threw up alphabet soup there weren't a lot of diacrytics so i'm assuming it's not swedish
i saw one german guy the other day i think that makes a grand total of two
there's a shit load of chinese people playing this game right now though almost every quest is full of them >>449495 shit maybe he was finnish
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
it could be one of the nordics or it could silkkaa suomalaista sekamelskaa
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>449494 oder han var svenska och du märkte bara det inte
Anno
>>449496 ok, how would you say "I've been stunned!" in swedish? as in, a monster hit you so much you got dizzy and can't move.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
no idea
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I don't think there is a word for it direclty finnish would be something lame like Olen pökerryksissä or olen tyrmätty
wrong key olen tyrmätty sounds familiar what would you say as a translation for "I've mounted the monster!" like riding a horse or grabbing onto creatures in dragon's dogma
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
fuck if I know it could be "ratsastan hirviöllä" for a very literal translation "olen kiivennyt hirviön päälle" "olen hirviön päällä" "olen tarttunut hirviöön"
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
finnish isn't a language that works well in some context and gamestuff is just... cringy isn't even close to how it always sounds
Anno
>>449503 is it hard to translate games into your language or do people just not do a very good job at it?
either way with what you wrote above i am 90% sure that guy was finnish so there must be at least one guy in finland who got the game day one
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
both and our language just doesn't suit it kinda like some really bad jap to english translations
Anno
guy was like hunter rank 170 when i was 60 and i play at least 4 hours a day every day
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
more than one

FUCK YES based south korea guy coming in with the stable internet connection
Anno
i wonder what kind of weapons finnish people usually use chinese people like the duals a lot
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
No idea But I am bit worried abotu the person, since if their shit was showing in finnish, that means they used the finnish translation themself
Anno
i imagine it's pretty easy to translate monster hunter there isn't a whole lot of complicated dialogue, just a lot of item names and stuff on the other hand its also a game that doesn't even need to be translated to be played i played P3rd in japanese for a while and had no real problem
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
it is easy to translate anything, but to make it actually work is another thing...

what was the mist weapon/tool called in bb
Anno
rosmarinus
Anno
if you're talking about the thing that sprays the white mist to deal arcane damage anyways
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
yeah that >A special weapon used by the Choir, high-ranking members of the Healing Church. Sprays a cloud of sacred mist, created by using blood-imbued Quicksilver Bullets as a special medium. Arias are heard wherever sacred mist is seen, proving that the mist is a heavenly blessing. "sacred mist" became "turruttava usva" turruttava meaning something like numbing but to a finni t just sounds like "it sprays a fart"
Anno
haha damn that's good a great description of the actual effect of this piece of shit garbage gun
Anno
not that i didn't want to use it i mean i had like 60 arcane on that character but damn it sucks

the video card i have only needs like 60W by itself actually

>>449547 ah yeah that sucks i seem to sleep longer when i am sick but it doesn't make me feel any more rested and when i sleep for that long i feel tired when i wake up anyways >>449548 well codeine causes drowsiness and it lingers for a lot longer than the mediocre painkilling >>449550 a small amount yeah it becomes a couple byproducts of codeine metabolization as well it's like a weaker version of morphine but does basically the same thing
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
well "codeine" it becomes morphein in the liver
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I just took it cause I felt like the dullness it produces in your head would be nice in the morning I felt real crap back then but turns out I had a little bit fever too, so the painkillers in that pill also helped a lot
Anno
codeine is also commonly prescribed to help treat cough but i'm unsure as to how effective it really is from personal experience i can't say it helped me much when i had pertussis dextromethorphan and acetaminophen did just as well as the codeine and promethazine and that is over the counter stuff anyone can buy

it's so easy to make dumb typos while you're typing along, even moreso when you're actively listening and parsing/formatting heavy streams of language i always catch myself making really inexcusable errors while i'm typing the rough drafts and i dont notice them, like breeding instead of breading or cum instead of come or asses instead of assests/assess
and it makes me so paranoid so i have to pore through everything to find my errors, but there's over 800 pages here and i've gone through about 200 of them and not seen anything it's trick paranoia because in my highest faculty i'm doing so much, then i have difficulty when my stamina and focus wears out and i think back to the over-stimulated workload prior and compare how i'm fuckin up in-the-moment to an system state i can't recall because it was at a different level of function so i think there must be a lot more fuckups where i was doing more shit than when i'm doing less

FormerRei@mobile
We actually have states here where its illegal to sell alcohol on Sundays.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>449683 it took 3 cabinets and 6 months of debate to pass a law that allows stores to sell drinks with alcohol content at 5,5% instead of the former 4,7%

TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>449687 consider alcohol our guns, but state and powers that be don't want anyone to buy anything

Oh and the best part about those states os that they're referred to as "blue states". So when we were stuck in Indiana from a blizzard, my dad went to the Walmart by the motel to buy some beer. And the guy at the register said "I can't sell that to you today, Indiana's a blue state" my dad "Indiana's not a blue state, its a red state" In common vernacular blue state refers to primarily liberal/democratic state and red to conservative/repuplican.

maybe in terms of importing you're more restrictive? Cause you seem less restrictive in the other areas than here

I think that is what was the final nail but yeah, now that breweries are allowed direct sale and 5,5 is allowed in stores ,norway might be top1 our taxation on importing is actually considered illegal in terms of EU market laws, but...

Breweries under a certain production size are allowed to sell directly to consumers here in Canada. I can't remember the specifics but I think it's tied to how we classify stuff as microbreweries or minibreweries or even nanobreweries? I'm not really interested in beer so I don't know the details. If you're above a certain size you have to sell through okay'd retailers, which for the longest time, and still for most retailers, consisted only of government-run stores. A select number of chain grocery stores can now sell beer though.

oh yeah and that is part of it production size, it is quite abysmally low and the "store" facilities have to be part of the brewery, but not actually part of the brewery basically you can't due to hygiene reasons and such just sell from the brewery but the store part has to be part of the brewery complex and all kind of regulations and whatnot Basically at the current moment the REGULATIONS toa llow the selling don't exist yet, while the selling is legal you can sell, but you can't apply for the license to sell as the license doesn't exist yet.

On topic, but do any of you own a kotatsu. I was hoping to find one to keep next to my futon, maybe a wide one.

The northern hemisphere is kind of leaving the season for kotatsu.
