I only knew of kadokawa from anime stuff. Turns out they are massive and own a lot of companies.

some of those ubuntu instructions that come up jn search results are from as far back as the mail order ubuntu cd era and installing debs directly is a slippery slope

no L5,R5, touchpads though

so shattered horizon died, then someone else made it and it died again?

soulslike mechanics probably feel clunky to people that don’t really play soulslike. That said a bunch of things totally are clunky like cycling through spells and items which hasn’t significantly changed since dark souls, and for people that would rather take their time browsing the items walking while the menu is up is probably pretty jarring. Probably other things. It really has come a long way from demon souls but I honesly kinda prefer the jankiness of the older games.

I can’t do the standard gym but bouldering gym is recommended. I used to have a membership to climb whenever at any location of that gym and found people are super happy to give advice and discuss the ‘beta’.

Disclaimer: I had taken a class like a decade earlier and gotten somewhat used to responding non-akwardly to people unexpectedly talking to me by the time I started going to the gym. I also went almost every day, sometimes to multiple locations. Some days I spoke to nobody, other days I got roped into group discussions on technique and posititoning. The climbing related strength training stuff people just recommended youtubers to me for the how to instead of giving potentially harmful advice.

I thought in japan you never quit your job or face a shit time of not getting hired because they are all ‘black companies’ and wont hire you under the assumption you could quit

i feel like it was longer. its been more than that since I last played minecraft and I definitely remember getting the warning multiple times via email I feel like it even got delayed based on how long ago it feels.

No idea but probably not enough to be good enough for food safety inspectors, or my own fear of any kind of microbe, contaminant, or filth.

sony just doesn’t want our money. hell I’d even do the stupid psn account for that one.

the acids used in brewery for sanitization can wreck metals too. we had some plated brass fittings that got mixed in with the stainless stuff and the acid water turned green and the brass was exposed. some other formerly shiny parts turned grey and chalky and very soft. Some places love their brass but I just want everything to be stainless so I can leave it soaking in sani for as lonng as I’m too lazy to deal with it which is forever.

I’ve only played world but the story was abysmal and the characters and facial expressions were as bad as bethesda, except with very japanese gestures with that specific style of overreaction, even if the character would never pass as japanese visually. yes its a japanese game, but even 3d models of white people acting super japanese makes me about as uncomfortable as real white people doing it but with uncanny valley mixed in.

anyway there’s no way anyone plays these games for story

This is just how fromsoft does things. Pretty weird but having played every souls game to completion and several of their other games just a bit, I feel like you get used to it. The only thing that bothered me about elden ring is that it just didn’t seem to outshine previous titles by enough (or at all) to be particularly excited about it.

I feel like its the same thing as how I can try to hop in something entirely new to me like baldurs gate 3 and there is just so much overwhelming shit that I’m not used to (still put in a good chunk of time and not done yet), but as a long time souls player, ER just felt like a new region and some new items and quests in a souls game. Oh and different timings for otherwise familiar mechanics I guess.

I’m kinda curious now what the multiplier is based on, someone’s perception or just multiplied ingredients, or measurable unit.

i guess compared to ichiban and such but its fairly standard size for a Korean instant noodle

10x sounds well past the point of being enjoyable. I’ll have to pick some up and check…

filthy casuals…

Anyway korean homestay students used to stock up on these and leave them behind when they went home. it’s a pretty decent instant noodle, fairly recommended

its good on controller but I mainly game on steam deck and I hate it on steam deck. too heavy and hard to get the sweet spot of avoiding accidental input and not having too high or too low sensitivity. I need a steam controller 2.

but yeah you can do stuff like fast/coarse move with stick and slow/precision with gyro and do compound movement of both at the same time, for example tilting against the stick if you overshoot or with the stick if the aim comes short, or adding up or down hairline adjustment on gyro while doing just right or left on the stick. weird at first but I can do it better than mouse aim on controllers with good implementaion.

and creature taming and economy

this guy looks like he’s the model for several cartoon characters
