A burger worth half a damn (in both taste and portion) in Burger King will cost me nearly as much as a smash burger with jalapeño aioli and loaded fries from a local burger joint. Pizza Hut/Domino’s is the same, there’s a proper italian dining place less than 50m from my place, prices are comparable but the taste just isn’t there for Pizza Hut or Domino’s.

I’m a very stingy person but that price difference is not worth the difference in quality.

Yeah. Like an image of harry in the style of old soviet posters (in how shadows and colors are managed) could be very cool.

Think people who got on lemmy originally lean techy (and thus more likely to use linux and be passionate about it), and people who joined after the IPO thing have more diverse reasons for abandoning reddit.

Yeah, linux can be almost anything you want it to be. It’ll run faster and look and feel just the same as windows, if not better. The only bad thing, and I say this as someone who’s still on windows and will switch soon^tm, is that there’s a lot of work that comes with that.

A friend of mine who’s all about linux is always fixing something about his installation. Though from what I know, he’s using Arch, which apparently is less stable/needs more work to get going (something about bleeding edge).

Only reason why I haven’t changed yet is because of VR and adobe programs. As soon as VR is a bit more seamless and I get replacements for adobe I’m off of windows.

I’ll push back on the nonstick pans. Steel pans get you much better sears, are easier to take care of, and last way longer than non-sticks. Even expensive non-sticks will require you to use spatulas made of a soft material and will only last a couple months to a handful of years before the teflon flakes off.

Personally I would save up a bit and get a 9inch, a 12-14inch (depending on hob sizes), and a bigger sauce pan. Would definitely run more expensive than 100 quid but will last much longer.

Plus, you can go as hard as you want in terms of musical proficiency. You can look up chord charts, learn how to read tabs, or learn how to read sheets.

Though it should be said, guitar is tough starting out. It will make your fingertips sore and your hand cramp. It will take hours of practice to get stuff halfway decent, even things that seem simple. There’s always something to improve at or learn. And no matter how much you practice you’ll always hear imperfections.

It’s a hell of a time commitment (and it can be a money sink) but it is very fun.

Yeah, that one

That Tom Hanks movie where he’s stranded on an island after a plane crash when I was 6.

I saw it a day before taking my first plane ride and going over sea.

Same. I love turn based combat, but I can’t stand jrpg turn based. If this was more like wasteland, bg3, or pf:wotr I’d be all over it.

Oh yeah, probably my favourite squad mod. A little hard to believe that people will do that kind of quality work for free and consistently update it when any patch can and will invariably fuck mods up.

Same. ArmA, Squad, and eventually 83 will be more than enough until bf6 is dirt cheap.

I started on the gravship scenario intending to do a “what if” the dwarves from DRG decided to rebel against the company (which the empire stands in for).

About 7 years in and I’ve maxed out my ship (The Alerunner) and will probably look to settle down on an asteroid, build a mines of moria kind of deal but in space.

I think this DLC is nearly as good as ideology, depending on how much modders are able to use its systems it might become even better.

In a way the gameplay also serves the meta commentary, though I’m not sure if that could be attributable to intended design choices or just was a lack of vision/production.

Nevertheless, it’s a fine game and one you’ll probably remember specifically for the story and the way it’s presented.

It was mechanically uninteresting when it was new. It was about as cookie cutter as a 2000s/2010s shooter could be. It’s all about the meta commentary.

Alone: replaying MGSV, Rimworld (with the new DLC, I’m about to hit 6k hours I think), and WH40k Rogue Trader.

With friends: WH40k Darktide, Ready or Not, and a bit of Arma Reforger. We’re probably going to start either a new Enshrouded run soon, or a new Baldur’s Gate run soon.

Another crab’s treasure. It plays like a soulslike but it’s designed like a Rare n64 game in all the good ways.

What the hell has honduras to do with this? Literally just a play on the name.

Had me in the first half ngl

Or Rimworld. Tried it once while working at a mind numbingly boring internship after a month of putting it off.

I have 6k hours now.

No, don’t tax them. Take away everything they own, deny them basic comforts, see how they like it.
