  • Trying to retain your sanity while married

    Jump

  • Big same. “Yeah I’m colorblind so you don’t really want my opinion on this” when they’re debating shades of purple, and they never have to know I just can’t see green on top of red.

  • New oven and they lock the air fryer functionality behind wifi.

    Jump

  • Our GE Profile oven did the same. Of course the software is so shit, it tripped up connecting to the VLAN I set up and now it has air fry mode and no wifi.

    Maybe try switching to airplane mode on your phone while trying to onboard the oven? I’m sure it’s too late for that.

  • Monster Hunter Wilds Open Beta Test reaches 457,000+ concurrent players on Steam within 1 hour of release.

    Jump

  • The constant tutorials can be overwhelming, yeah. Just know, the game is (usually) many layers, and you can still have a blast ignoring the basic tutorials and just turning your brain off and smashing stuff, or you can focus up and hit the lab to really refine how you use a particular weapon or practice strategies against a specific monster, kinda like a fighting game.

  • Final Fantasy 14's next big challenge: Making players feel like they're getting their monthly sub's worth—not just funding Square's flops while WoW stacks value

    Jump

  • Yeah I agree, this is bullshit. I’m probably in the minority but I take “vote with your wallet” seriously and I’ve just kept my sub going since I started playing in like 2018? Even the months that go by that I don’t play, I feel I’m getting some value by keeping their team cooking.

    Meanwhile WoW is getting roasted for its latest grift. I guess that’s stacking value, just not for the players.

  • Store making me feel like an outcast because of privacy concerns

    Jump

  • When I worked retail, I never asked for phone or address or anything. If they volunteered it, I’d do it, but I never asked. Management talked to me about it several times and I just kept not doing it. I think they kept me on in busy times because I could blast through any line of customers faster than anyone else (I wonder why 🤔)

  • Kagi search engine working with Russia

    Jump

  • It’s not a fucking reveal, Kagi tells you exactly what engines they include in their results.

  • What is the resin printer equivalent of Bambu labs FDM?

    Jump

  • Whole heartedly, FDM is laughably worse at the hobby/consumer level. I sold my Ender 3 because it was just a pain in the ass, intending on never 3D printing again.

    A coworker mentioned the Elegoo Mars 4K being so cheap so I gave it a shot. I’ve printed so much with it, and I have literally never had a problem once I dialed in my exposure time with the resin I like. I don’t even fuss with how long the resin has sat idle. Months can go by between prints and I don’t even bother stirring it. It just cranks things out like a magician.

    Everyone who can set up adequate ventilation and buy thick rubber gloves: get a resin printer and never look back.

  • Time to evacuate is running out as Hurricane Milton closes in on Florida

    Jump

  • I’ve been here for every hurricane in the last 30+ years and this is the first one I’ve been alerted for tornadoes in my area, and the first time anyone I know has even seen one.

    Like I said, I’m not downplaying this shit, but historically when you’re talking about hurricanes that affect the entire state, most people are not hit by the tornadoes.

  • Time to evacuate is running out as Hurricane Milton closes in on Florida

    Jump

  • That’s my feeling too, and for Ian it was beneficial that I stayed because I was able to mitigate a leak that certainly would’ve ruined my house if I hadn’t been there.

    We’re always in a mandatory evacuation B zone, but we’re several miles inland and our lot is 18ft above sea level, our street never floods. Place is just built different I guess.

    Stay safe, friend!

  • Time to evacuate is running out as Hurricane Milton closes in on Florida

    Jump

  • Realistically, the places that get “flattened” are beach areas or inland areas on tidal waterways like major rivers. The vast majority of after storm damage for folks is roof damage from wind and property damage from airborne debris.

    This isn’t to downplay storms at all, but if you’re in a modern house (concrete construction, roof straps, raised lot elevation), not in the direct path of the eye, and not on the beach, your residence will likely be fine. Know your area, assess the risks, and make the choice safest for you.

    Flooding is almost always the lethal part of these storms and that’s the purpose of the mandatory evacuations, it’s to prevent people from being trapped and forcing emergency responders to risk their lives needlessly.

  • Airbnb's struggles go beyond people spending less. It's losing some travelers to hotels.

    Jump

  • The founder literally started it because he found it difficult to rent out his vacation home. Fuck him and his vacation home.

  • J.D. Vance Told His Son to ‘Shut The Hell Up’ About Pokemon While Talking to Trump

    Jump

  • For real, friends in discord were aghast at this, and I’m thinking “bro I’ve heard you tell your kids to shut the fuck up.”

  • What skill or talent took you longer than it should have to learn?

    Jump

  • Forget those complex “classic” knots and try the “Van Wijk” knot. It couldn’t be easier, you only move the fat end of the tie and wrap it around the skinny end 2-4 times before pulling the fat end through the wraps. So fast, impossible to forget, and looks classy while being distinct.
