@scribus Now I'm jinxed and will let it fall down and dent it next time I take it into my hands. That's what happened with my Blackberry KeyOne on day 2 of ownership. It has a small dent at the top edge and its black anodized coating got off at the spot of impact.

@scribus Ah. That's a very good point. This is a good use-case for all the Roma fruits to be used up. Gonna buy beef patties and some buns tomorrow. As for Tigerella I have the UK sort that has small, cherry-sized, fruits https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tigerella (about 2 - 2.5 fingers wide).

@scribus Thank you. You have described the scent pretty well. I was lacking myself the words to describe the mango. I am happy that I found shampoos that are based on olive-oil that don't overwhelm me and give me headaches.

@scribus To my in-person interview in September 2017 for my current job I wore a graphic t-shirt with a sailship being attacked by a kraken, griffin, and a sea serpent. However the graphic t-shirt with an astronaut using a half-moon as a rowboat for an interview at IBM was unsuccessfull. The reasons were mainly that they wanted a Java-focused developer and not one preferring C/C++/C#.

@scribus It reminds me that I need a new suit for special occasions. Last time I bought one was 10 years ago. My proportions have shifted a bit.

@scribus Whenever I see home-made helicopters I already flinch by the sole thought of touching one. They look soo flimsy and with safety third in mind.

@scribus Thanks. The previous owner had printed a test print just before I arrived to demonstrate that it works, and I believe him fully that it always was without any problems. However, There is a lingering thought in my head that is slowly getting louder saying that my luck (more misfortune) will make it to an object with the same amount of problems as I had before. Joking aside, I think it will take me a little bit of time to get it to know and know its limitations and quirks. It uses a magnetic spring steel sheet with a PEI layer as the print bed surface, which can be really tricky to print with PETG, that is my preferred material. It tends to destroy the PEI coating of the print surface when not being carefully handled.

@scribus Wait until you try Wrath of the Righteous.
Pathfinder in general is number crunching hell since its first edition, but WotR takes it a step further crowning itself as the most number-crappy TTRPG I've played so far.
Which is impressive considering the same company made Rogue Trader, which is perfectly good and pleasant to play. -
@scribus Mostly the difficulty works out so far. That one fight however was a big mishap. Maybe it is because I'm playing on "Tactician" difficulty, which should translate to hard difficulty. I get what I was subscribed for. Most encounters are fine and a TPK is not uncommon, however they don't feel cheap. That one boss encounter at the end of Act 2 did not offer any way to re-do it differently without loading a save from 3 hours before. With a lower difficulty it was not so bad. For more info: I did no hyper-optimised character builds, so that has also been an influence on my frustrating experience.
Yakuza 7 had also some very fierce difficulty spikes that were making my hair pull out. Other JRPGs I do not have much experience with. -
@scribus It is intended to be won and to be tough which should reflect the flavor of the fight. There is a gimmick to disable the invulnerability of the boss but it wasn't my problem. I could disable the gimmick in turn two. The aura preventing healing and reviving cannot be disabled. The action economy was out of whack. Enemies that prevent player actions (fear effect and paralyze) + limited healing + the boss pulling player characters into the no-healing-zone + constantly new damage sources + high HP enemies (need 4 attacks to be killed on avg) + high HP boss + in the area there was no way to better prepare for the fight (no shops and party members couldn't be swapped) = a lot of frustration.

@scribus I'm a more simpler man: I had Grasslands de Chocobo from Final Fantasy VII Rebirth on slightly than higher volume https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yN8W9Ng-P4U

@scribus Never seen that piece of entertainment but I know its infamy as it was told among the whole nerdom and it was cursed by all its witnesses spew out toxic because of the end.
-
@scribus I either think of the Russian or Yugo carbines explicitly when thinking or hearing of the SKS, which all had internal magazines
-
@scribus do you know if SKS rifles are OK? I imagine not because of the bayonet, and I know Yugoslav modells aren’t because of the grenade launcher apparatus
-
@scribus Words like "go away" and "idiot" were uttered. That stupid stubborn little piece of poop and spiky bristles either didn't move at all or it moved quickly back to under the bush to make the whole process comically on repeat. 10 minutes for a distance of 1.5 meters.
-
@scribus Yeah. Luckily I knew only one guy when I was at university who swore on the whole Apple ecosystem.
-
@scribus That looks fun. I guess my D&D group's taste would like a little bit more serious setting. I own the Humblewood books and I wait for the day I can do a one-shot in that setting when we start a Spelljammer campaign next year.
-
@scribus Oh wow! What a surprise! A determined person could brew something simple as gunpowder from the knowledge from Wikipedia.
-
@scribus Maybe it could be extended with weird gizmos like Data from The Goonies. Simple tech stuff made out of ordinary objects. And any electronic device is a "magic" item.
-
@scribus Hmmm.... Weirdly compelling. So you have to find books, teachers, information and then to write an exam to level up a skill?
-
@scribus A good belt or harness to carry it becomes a necessity once you're over 30 rounds on you.
-
@scribus it becomes a workout indeed when you start stocking cans of it and have to relocate to various locations in your house twice a year.
