I hate twinkies as they are, but if you roast them over a fire they really do become perfect. All that extra grease in the bread fries it to perfection and the cream isn't as gross when it's molten.

I'm quite partial to the blue with silver accents.

Personally I moved back to mp3, so much less hassle and if you don't mind the high seas it's super easy to rip off Spotify.

Meep meep motherfucker.

Red hood would have shot Kirk.

 

So with the most recent Spotify nonsense I've finally had enough and I'm going back to mp3. Unfortunately, I haven't had to do this since Bush left office and I do not have the free time to manually sort and document every single file I have. I've been using MusicBrainz Picard but I don't know if the learning curve is steeper than I have traction for or if it's just really picky.

Anyone got suggestions on how to better manage all my jams? I'm trying to make it user friendly as I can for the family and so far I'm not winning lol

I've only recently really got onto it and I can confidently state you'd probably be better off buying something else. It has a storyline and honestly I really like it, but it's very much a light novel tacked onto a sandbox. I've been drawn to it because it's the closest I'll ever get to playing a robot smuggler in Starwars.

I knew I was off on something, thank you!

This is actually something I've run into in my day to day. I changed my full name when I got married because I've hated my name for my whole life. My old name was very cute and very white, and I frequently got questions about the beloved children's show I was named after. It made being a working adult pretty hard. What I didn't expect was that my new name is heavily assumed to be Latino. I was going for the Italian poet but a few people have been confused to find an absolute honky in the interview.

He's a ~~Mexican~~ Puerto Rican club music musician, his stuff is actually pretty good but rather raunchy if you speak the language.

If you're a honky like me you may take a liking to his recent work with the Gorillaz

That's exactly how we've been playing it. I'm not one to pick at peoples titles, all I care is she's happy.

Hey, it's me, the you that grew up in Kansas!

I'm 32 this year and I can tell you first hand that it's not as bad as it looks. I'm so comically flamboyant and feminine that the trans girls at the high school I worked at were coming to me for hair care and outfit advice, never once have I been threatened by some ass backwards bigot. I even spent my mid 20's hitting on them whenever they creeped on my gal pals.

Despite teeth like a meth house, ears I can glide with, and the worst case of psoriasis one dermatologist ever saw, my guy friends were always baffled by how my geek ass could land some of the women I dated. The answer is that intense heterosexual love you feel. Every partner I've ever had has been genuinely wholly the focus of my affections and they feel that.

Now I'm married to a fem presenting Non binary who's not sure if she can call herself ace anymore now that she enjoys sex. I don't care what she calls herself, she's my person and I wake up next to her and grin like a loon.

Sorry for the life story, but my point is that guys like us can make it out there. It can be rocky, especially when it comes to unpacking the damage, but you can thrive. Get your ass to that city, reach out to friends and make some new ones along the way. Don't let anyone tell you not to be you.

Hit me up in the DMS, I'd be happy to add you on Discord. You sound fantastic

 

I'm on a medication that gets delivered to me in a dramatically over packaged way every two weeks. Part of this packaging is a styrofoam cooler about 27x22x25cm and two unlabeled cold packs.

I currently have 7 of these and expect to be getting them for the rest of my life. Aside from just tossing them, do any of you lot have suggestions for what i can do with all these coolers?

 

Hey gang, I've been wanting to set up a sort of RPG way to play commander for my usual group, some way to mary the deck building and commander choice to a character sheet, then periodically use that character sheet and the players preferred cards to do a small dungeon.

Does anyone have suggestions for games this might work with? Something I can use as a jumping off point? I feel d&d probably isn't the most compatible thing lol

 

So I'm very new to self hosting. When I set up Ubuntu server and jellyfin it formatted as a logical drive. I can't for the life of me parse how I add the other terabytes worth of disks I have to the machine. Can someone eli5?

 
 

I'm trying to make a pocket pet game, like the evolution of all the little calculator screened toys in the 90's and 00's. I don't want it to be the whale hunting, spyware riddled garbage that most phone games are. I'd rather like to release it on F-Droid instead of Google if I release it at all. I have all of it worked out on paper, from the random tables to the creature stats, to the combat mechanics, you can play it as a pen and paper if you wanted to. Problem is, I'm a pen and paper guy, and I'm having an awful time trying to learn anything about code. Where do I go to get help with this?

 

So I'm sure just about everyone knows "The Cool S". It's ubiquitous in school culture and if you haven't drawn it, you probably know someone who has.

The thing is, no one knows where it came from. Everyone has a cool cousin or older sibling that "invented" it, or claim it's from some group or company, but it always turns up to be false. In fact, the oldest known example is in a book cataloging street art published in 1973. From there it's been found on basically every notebook and lunch table the world over and represents a big niche in childlore.

So here's where I go off the deep end... What if this is actually The Yellow Sign?

The yellow sign is never expressly described in the story, with the weird wiggly one being an artist rendition. However, in The King in Yellow, a character draws it freehand to show someone. Which implies it's easy to freehand which the current one isn't. Furthermore, think of the purpose. The yellow sign is intends to spread Hasturs influence secretly. The current one, while undoubtedly cool, is also strange and stands out. If you're wearing it on your person, it stands out. The S doesn't. I'm writing this on break and there's 3 in this room alone. No one cares.

Now take a moment to consider the vector. The best time to indoctrinate someone is young. Why fight to catch the random mad reader when you can net up whole classrooms in a single day and whole schools in a week? No one takes it seriously because it's a children's doodle. A thing we draw absent-minded as we remember our youth.

For all we know, we're all infected and didn't even know.

 

I've been playing with the terralyst lately and found out that a mediocre velocitus as a call down and on a necromech will take huge chunks off it's health. The necromech is even better because it isn't bothered by all the knock back and stagger.

As I don't have any of the meta frames for eidolon hunts, this has been a bit of a game changer for me and has me wondering how this would stack up with meta options. I've got a Lanka and it's nowhere near as effective even at double the fire rate.

Has anyone else played with this? I'd love to hear other stories on how the new deployables work with hunts.

 
 

Like, could you make a smaller version of a 1911 that fires 22lr instead of .45 by just scaling all the parts to the 22lr?
