The live-action Lilo & Stitch movie looks like a soulless husk. The actors are fine in the trailer. Everything else is just a huge pile of grape. The youtube comments below the trailer show how much Disney brain rot exist. I am clearly exaggerating but it is close. It will probably be like the other live-action films and milk enough money out of people's wallets to warrant yet another film.
What will be next? Oliver & Co live-action? The Black Cauldron live-action? Song of the South remake/live-action?about a year ago from web -
The radiator knob replacement part I 3d printed works. It took me a few attempts as I wasn't thinking it through properly due to assembly issues and needed to work around the fact that I cannot disassemble the knob to get the part into it. Now I have to return the non-working replacement I bought yesterday.

Well... I guess it is easier to 3d print and fix the old knob than to search for a proper replacement. I could change the valve but it is messy and I have no money for the proper handyman to do that for me.

The knob of my heat radiator crumbled away (old plastics) and the replacement I bought doesn't work and doesn't fit. Have to go back to the store tomorrow.

Wow, talk about a throwback. Hi RDN, you probably don't remember me XD

@pandaexpress Around that long yeah, glad to hear it came around for you in the end.
I've been pretty well all around. 2017 was kind of a mess but other than that, there have been a lot more upsides than downsides. Some losses sure, but death is unavoidable, all that is within my control ticks under my rythm and that's all that matters to say life is good.
Made a lot of friends, got new certifications and a different job, dropped my ex and had a lot of fun these last 8 years. All I can possibly complain of right now is that the stock market is not as good as I'd wish lol.Emily likes this. -
@pandaexpress much the same. Purpose in life does wonders for a person.

My tomato plants are growing faster than anticipated. Barely one week in the dirt and half of the planted seeds pushed through the surface. Last year it felt it took longer until there was some development.

@nerthos Fruit... Vegetable. I tend to say (jokingly) it is a frugitable. I hope too that they will be growing and do not rot away like last year.
-
@adiwan Have you built a roof or pseudo-greenhouse for them? usually just a transparent nylon cover to prevent rain damage is enough to keep them safe
-
@nerthos Not yet. I have to acquire free trampolines with side-netting for the sole purpose to get the metal tubes to build such a cover. I could buy it ready but due to my bucket solution of a raised bed I'd need 30-40 cm more than purchasable.

7 hours into my 32th birthday I've already caused all sorts of romantic chaos, had my crush hint very overtly that she would like me to fight with her boyfriend over her (won't, she made her choice) and had a drunk gay friend confess to me in an absolutely obsessive, self-destructive and pathological way (which would have been really hot if it was a girl)
It's turning out to be a VERY eventful day and I'm very happy for it.
I joined this place when I was 18 and I'm glad I haven't mellowed out at all in that time. Here's hoping in another 14 years things will be just as crazy still.about a year ago from web-
@adiwan Pretty sure I'm not! but it's a funny life for certain and I put in a non-insignificant amount of work into keeping it that way.
Death and illness aren't scary to me, being bored is. -

To be honest the Firefox profile I've been using is probably over 15 years old. It was bound to happen that some legacy thing F-up something after an update.

I had to reset my Firefox as it was in a buggy state. For some reason the context menu was massively long with irrelevant entries, like stopping or playing a video for an image. It wouldn't bothered me that much but nothing worked from that list.

Finished the last few substories in LAD:PYIH. They were the Dragon Kart ones. I like Dragon Kart but the Duel mode sucks a lot. It is mostly roulette where I am the ball and wait until I explode or the others explode first. Also I finished all the bounties that gave me a music disc. Maybe when I am bored enough I finish the colosseum. The hardest battles feel very unfair.

Well I'm trying to do a House-aligned playthrough of Fallout: New Vegas, but I very really truly hate him and the terrible asshole things he says :-/

@scribus Interesting, he's my favourite faction to side with on the grounds of pragmatism, he's the only one with a plan (and the actual capability to make it happen) to make humanity go anywhere other than "we'll just be hobos in perpetuity"
He might not be incredibly likable, but in a survival scenario that's irrelevant. -
@nerthos Yeah, I want to not hate him - I mean, a retro-future spaceVegas? Hell, yeah!! He's not even that unlikable, there's a wry sort of amusement to his bearing. But he's too egocentric; he's not preserving humanity, he's feeding his ego and seeking to create a thrallhood underclass to prop HIM up. Ultimately, I don't consider him sufficiently distinct from Caesar. Both cling to old-world ideals and play up some fantasy of the "inevitability" of "their" power. So, I kill him, take his city, and in my mind carry on with developing the space plans in a little more cooperative, ground-up fashion. (Though in all honesty a spacefaring future would be just as hellish as the vaults so iunno w/e i guess lol) Also I make The King governor or something :p
-
@scribus That all sounds good until you factor in the kind of human resource you're dealing with in Fallout. Ironically the tv show is the best illustration of this, with the main character trying to behave like a civilized person and consistently getting banana'd by everyone.
House's narcissistic approach is a necessity in the world he's operating, without the army of robots forcing the wastelanders to work at gunpoint nothing will get done (example: they're still living in shacks near 200 years after the war)
Plus, he has civilized some factions already, so it's not like he won't uplift the competent and decent wastelanders into better positions. He has to do that for any space settling plan to work, since good people are needed to populate those colonies.
Sometimes, a competent megalomaniac is the only option that can get the job done.

i think they should add pirate majima to the new monster hunter game because who else is more fit to hunt monsters? not your hatsune miku character creation, that's for sure

@liquidusmira Fortnite proved that Hatsune Miku, if given an assault rifle and a jetstream sam sword, is more than capable to go hand to hand with Godzilla.
You underestimate her.

@zeldatra I've done that at work staff room, and also argued to a full room of coworkers that the axis were the better faction in WWII, nothing happens if you have enough points in CHA.

Sometimes I buy Trader Joe's nuts and snacks at Aldi Nord. I guess that's still EU, since Trader Joe's is owned by Aldi Nord.

Boycott of US products? My daily products I purchase aren't from the US. Only my comics are from the US. I avoid big brand products in general as they are expensive in the first place and their quality isn't worth that much.
