@adiwan Indeed, I suppose I could "catch it live when it airs" or source an "alternative" "home media" . . . :p
-
@scribus I have, for the most part, no other choice than to get those "alternatives" when it comes to getting the original English audio, or even for seeing the newest episode on day of release.

As you may have guessed from the fact that the bill keeps getting paid, I am in fact, still alive.

I've bought a not-dakimakura. It's a slightly slimmer and shorter pillow and the cover is blank grey. I really need something stabilizing my sleep position when lying on the side. I tend to sleep on my stomach and it hurts my sleep quality. I wanted a wider pillow but there are no covers... or at least blank ones. At 150cm x 50cm there are only sexy anime pillow covers. I have too much dignity than to embarrass myself with frivolous prints on pillow covers.

@adiwan I've got a body pillow, myself. Can't really testify as to how I sleep with it, since I'm asleep at the time, but plain gray cover all the way, heheh.

I need a new pyjama but it's super difficult to find something not awful. As if they were designed to be ugly on purpose.

Because of the whole covid situation in the US all my comics are heavily delayed that should have been released this and last week :(

@scribus Makes sense. Like the NFL uses still Roman numerals for their Superb Owl extravaganza.

@adiwan Well, a second recipe (and three pies of it) currently underway so . . . haha I'm doomed

My 3rd character of the current D&D campaign will be a woke barbarian. The name is Boktar. Boktar is Boktar. Boktar does only define as Boktar and doesn't approve any gender put on Boktar. Boktar is also not good in conversations as Boktar has Yoda-speak despite average 10 intelligence. It doesn't discourage Boktar as Boktar solves most problems in woke rage with Boktar's trusty greataxe.

@adiwan AC was always rough for Barbarians. Not the worst, but definitely what I'd call substandard for a melee class. Damn good thing there's HP!

I'm super depressed by yesterday's D&D session. My Owl Monk had only 4 rounds until she was killed.
Saturday, 12-Sep-20 11:27:19 UTC from web-
@scribus The most depressing fact is that I rolled TWO times a natural 20 on a Death Save but was whacked immediately afterwards.
-
I'm looking forward to tomorrow's D&D session where I play my Owl Monk for the first time.
Thursday, 10-Sep-20 18:00:43 UTC from web-
@scribus Yeah. Except for the backstory they know what I'm going to play. I already planned and told the others that this character will be my backup. I didn't expect to play it that soon 'though.
-
So, in a state that doesn't allow fireworks due to wildfire risk, and during a time that doesn't allow gatherings due to pandemic risk, how dumb has one's ass gotta be to host a pyrotechnic gender reveal party that lights 7,000+ acres ablaze? Pretty stupid ass, right?

The coming week I'm going to present my collected data to my landlord in order to get rid of the awful neighbour. I let it sign by other neighbours for credibility. The last few days (including this one) were especially awful. I format the data in my favor (although the raw data is already damning). For example yesterday there were about 7 hours of almost constant noise and banging.
Saturday, 05-Sep-20 18:21:33 UTC from web-
@adiwan Good luck. I was never both angry enough and organized enough at the same time to accomplish anything about my bad neighbors.
-
@scribus No work (short time work paid by the state), a lot of time, and being extremely annoyed by loud low-frequency noise over a very long time (it is more than a year with varying degrees of disturbing noise) makes it possible.

@adiwan Also, AFAIK, this one doesn't read save files, so I can't copy over my SimCity cities or Final Fantasy saves!

D&D character dead
Friday, 28-Aug-20 21:38:10 UTC from web-
@scribus I was ganged up by 2 fish monsters after teleporting out of a poison cloud that made me blind and losing 1/3 of hitpoints before. Because the fight was split up due to the poison cloud and the building itself I failed all my death saving throws in a row. There was no chance.
-
@scribus I'm creating a new character. An owl lady monk that will kick so much ass that no one will get unscathed. Unarmored combat and only "fists". I chose the DND 5e monk monastic tradition of the Way of The Open Hand that gives me the option to knock enemies prone, push them 15ft, deny reactions, stun, run with 50ft speed, deflect missiles, and do 4 attacks in a round, reduce fall damage, run on water and walls, regain HP 3x the monk level (level 13), and is immune to disease and poison, and can dismiss a charm or frightened effect with an action. Pretty badass. Also she can talk and understand every language at level 13. http://rainbowdash.net/attachment/875612

Cooking rice while it's hot outside and opening the windows is out of the question is a bad idea. My apartment smelled like old socks the whole day from the rice.
Friday, 21-Aug-20 20:55:18 UTC from web-
@vcgriffin Just normal odors from the basmati rice. Its nutty and musk-like odor is fine on the plate but the concentrated smell in the air from cooking is not that pleasant. Usually I open my window while cooking, however when there is a 5°C difference I rather keep my apartment cool and endure the smell for a while.

@scribus Not sure if I get the first version of them but it's a relief that keyboards on smartphones aren't dead yet.

@adiwan Yeah, I try not to be a bleeding-edge first-adopter, but I may want to get one while the getting's good (and I can make the "market" look "healthy" or whatever stock-talk is behind decisions like these)

I knew this was coming but i didn’t quite realize how weird it would be to see the word “Fox” dropped from the Fox assets that Disney acquired. http://rainbowdash.net/url/875597

@adiwan Not that I know of. It was the pre-installation agreement that mentioned Disney.

Not sure how, six months in, I’m still having to turn around and go back to my house after forgetting my mask, but here we are.

@mrmattimation I hang my mask on my door handle when I'm home. Also I have a lanyard that attaches my keys my jeans when I'm going out of the house. The few things I do for not to cherry up at life.

Wanted to buy a cheap AC from my local listings but... they were gone. All sellers said that another *just* before me already got the deal.

All that effort is for nought. As I have woken up the temperature is as it was before.
Sunday, 09-Aug-20 07:40:13 UTC from web-
@adiwan Is a small portable or window mounted air conditioner not an option for you?
-
@oracle I need to save some money for a portable AC. The window mounted kind is out of the option because we have here no sliding windows. Last year it was bearable but the streak of hot days recently is killing me right now.

I guess it's not much different than how Japanese glosses the U off of Desu, maybe language is just dumb. Who needs a backwards R, anyway!? Upside-down question marks? Bah! lol

@scribus The world needs a mark at the end of the sentence to signify an sarcastic intent more than ever. I propose the ↓ because everything goes down at the moment.
-
@adiwan Definitely agree on the sarcasm mark being needed. And I actually really like Spanish's leading punctuation, it always seemed weird how English has it at the end to tell you what you should have been doing instead of telling you ahead what to do.

Evidently schools that haven't even had their first day are already reporting cases? We're just gonna... heads down, march dick-first through the razor pit? Not even look for a ladder? Nobody's even asking why we're dick-deep in a pit of razors??
Wednesday, 05-Aug-20 18:39:53 UTC from web-
@scribus One Bundesland (State) here in Germany has opened their schools this week under some terms like wearing masks in the hallways and segregating the school building into manageable sections for contact tracing and spreading out the school day as much as possible to reduce the amount of people. The number of active infections there is low but I sense it'll backfire nonetheless in a week or two.

More than a second time doing a multiple choice episode isn't worth it. Hitting all the bad endings the second time around is easy enough.

@scribus DVDs support different camera angles for scenes but this feature was poorly used if at all.
-
@adiwan I always remember seeing the button and never having it do anything, lol. I hear the porn industry used it some, but cannot confirm or deny.
-
@scribus I have The Matrix and I believe it had a few scenes with alternative camera angles. But that's all I believe to know about that feature. It's cool and all but to be honest it's a papayaty feature.
