our first child has turned a year old and it is amazing how my wife takes care of things with child in hand. I couldn’t be more proud at the mother shes become so far!

i had a friend who cosplayed as ironman and to sort of help guide/handle him i cosplayed as a s.h.i.e.l.d agent. mainly walked in front of him and prevented people from touching him because he was on some stilts to appear larger. then helped with taking photos with fans. my cosplay was pretty easy. Just a suit and a laminated badge hehe

I recently got my wife a sewing machine and cosplaying was a good creative avenue. She made a cosplay of Bulma from Dragonball. it was really cool and her own take given her skills. She wants to do another Bulma outfit but likely one from DBZ.

Pretty Hate Machine Remastered - Nine Inch Nails

comfyquaker , 24 days ago

maybe just a little more clarity, but now im second guessing myself. cant go wrong with either and im not sure why i called out the remaster specifically, maybe cuz it is just in my rotation a lot

i like that the controller is true to the DC design. though retro fighters modern wireless DC controller is pretty great despite its own quirks.

seems like this is also taking the approach where the VMU will be part of the wireless dongle. must be a challenge to get the sounds and ui to work well wirelessly.

Cool nonetheless

so many recommendations already said and im sure many more to go.

Three that i didnt see mentioned that i enjoyed were:

Martyrs- French Version The Visit Session 9

Scenes from martyrs have been memed out of context so i think its fairly familiar. i hadnt watched it until recently and i think one time through was good enough for me. i’m not into a lot of torture style suspense.

The visit was particularly scary for me because If you’ve ever been in that scenario of being dropped off with familial strangers those initial reservations you have running through your head do make you uncomfortable and blossom into horrific thoughts. in the case of this movie a bit more so ;)

Session 9 i watched during the golden age of netflix. it isnt amazing but it was enjoyable.

What is your favorite thing to put on fries that isnt ketchup?

it isn’t a singular thing but i like Poutine. I think thats brown gravy and cheese curds.

otherwise, mayo + sriracha is good 👍

I don’t follow Adin, or really anyone, but I also had that video show up in my feed today. Given what you said i wouldn’t be surprised if it was the same one just patched up and wrapped for the stunt. We didn’t see the interior in the video so it could still be rough. Looks all like a PR stunt and the truck isn’t actually being gifted. If it’s called into question it is easy to just say the gift was declined.

Given Musks character, if he was involved, he’d be right there with them delivering the vehicle.

Whatever the truth was, it was all awkward to watch.

same here! confused why a 2018 Russian groups pop song became popular in 2024, but i guess that’s the internet 🤷‍♂️

Yep, but i felt really bad afterwards. Purchased tickets on American airlines on short notice due to the death of my wife’s close aunt. The trip had a connecting flight and our first flight got delayed by an hour (np plenty of layover time left). then when we land the plane taxied for over an hour giving us about 10 panicking minutes to make the connection, but if we ran we could make it.

we didn’t, The terminal was much farther than expected. in the rush, my wife lost her ID, which added to further frustration. maintaining decent composure up until we go to the AA desk to schedule our alternative flight. The flight we were supposed to go on was the last flight for the day. and the next one wasn’t until next day evening.

well that was not going to work because the funeral was in the morning. We asked if we could fly to another city (equidistant to rural home) but the clerk was really firm on that the flight had to be to my destination. after all, our bags made it there.

that was what cocked the hammer back for me. I asked to speak with someone higher and they gave me a number, and boom i was pretty irked and very rude to the service rep who had the patience of a saint. She did get us on the soonest flight to the other city. My wife was crying with relief and i was sobbing my gratitude and apologizing for my behavior. the Service rep brushed it off like it was business as usual and tells me to have a nice flight.

Aside from having to go purchase new clothes at 1am, we made it to the service a few hours later.

Not so much these days. I have a lot of neglected home projects that I need to get done. Can’t imagine how 3 and 4s are handling things these days.

Such an entertaining game. i haven’t played worms in a long while.

comfyquaker OP , 2 months ago

oof. yep that is a rough discovery.

I had some crocs for a time and they are just a firm foam clog. they are comfortable but i never felt that they were so comfortable to rave about.

perfect for the summer and walking about. great for the garden as well. Just do not leave them in the sun. learning from experience they shrink, curl up, and become unusable.

i don’t really like that original croc look, but i think at the moment it is a popular one to choose. i prefer their other styles.

overall

• a pretty cheap shoe option
• moderately comfy in my opinion
• easy to clean, just hose them down
• comes in a variety of colors

i don’t have really specific reasons to not get them other than preference of look/style.

comfyquaker , 2 months ago

in the US i see them ranging from $20 to $50. however i am looking on Amazon and not their own website. at 50 I agree they would not be worth it

comfyquaker , 2 months ago

simply amazing

dbz and pokemon as well but only when id catch it between other activities. Didn’t actually sit through an entire anime until high school where my friend borrowed me Cromartie High.

First film was probably the first Pokémon film in theaters.

i have a copy of shining force on Saturn waiting for me to play it. idk why I’m getting more into RPGs when i have almost no time for them. interesting reason to play a game. though whatever promotes healthy sleep habits haha.

i picked up an arc a few months ago and its been my main console. in fact it is what i’ve been playing shadow run on. i also have an rg350 something that is technically more beefier but the arc really does have a rockin d-pad. plus i play mostly sega games and so the layout is super nice for that in part.

Policenauts is on my list for sure, but didn’t know you could play without a light gun. do light guns work on modern tvs or is there a way to emulate the functionality?

twilight dungeon was the last zelda release i played. i thoroughly enjoyed all of it. nothing about the newer ones have caught my interest

comfyquaker OP , 2 months ago

thats awesome! do you take turns at level changes or on deaths? the graphical leap between those two is pretty impressive.

comfyquaker OP , 2 months ago

its a series that has been on my backlog for sometime. By the time i can get to it I’ll likely be following in your footsteps and playing them with my kid.

check open discord communities for practicing languages. i know they are out there.

Alternatively, look for english speaking discord communities that you identify with or share interests.

phone, wallet, garage door opener. All things as small as i could reasonably get them. my wallet holds (and can only accommodate) my drivers license, work badge, and a debit card.

atm an iphone 14 pro. i used to use an android soap phone which was less than half the size, but sadly certain things didn’t work well on it :(

If you count a backpack, i always carry one with my laptop, a current book I’m reading, a handheld game console, and a small med kit with various otc drugs and bandages.

first two things come to mind:

water-cooler conversations at work would be different. telecommuting may be an important option during the season.

My shiny seashell collection may be in jeopardy. the ladies love seashells 🐚.

i vaguely recall the retail box version of silent hill 2 or 3 for PC being not all that amazing, and later emulating the Ps2 version was a better option, not to mention the easiest option since both games for PC are not common finds. then again the PC I played Silent hill 2 on wasn’t all that beefy at the time.

maybe any games that originally were for console ported to PC with Denuvo hit this criteria. interesting question!

comfyquaker , 2 months ago

Thanks for jogging my memory! I completely forgot about that core fact 😓.

comfyquaker OP , 2 months ago

I feel like many have a similar story. for me it was my n64 for PS2 games.

comfyquaker OP , 2 months ago

didn’t know about the power set. super cool bundle and the box for it is awesome. did it come with the track and field game?

I stopped my xfinity mobile because the service was absolutely dreadful. id have either full bars or none and id always have my friends ragging on my connection to Discord. The conspiracy i had in my head was that i was never using cell service but rather the xfinity service would bounce you around their local wifi spots to provide you service whether you had wifi services on or not. probably not true but it surely felt like it.

Tried Mint and it worked just ok. it was nice because at the time i was using an android soap phone and didn’t need much data.

Recently switched my wife and I to Visible plans. even though it is the same coverage as xfinity mobile and uses the Verizon network, it is a night and day difference in connection quality. at 25 a line, i’m happy with visible. i recall my xfinity lines were 30 each after any ‘deals’.

i think using node and express.js is very approachable in serving your web content. expressjs.com

following the hello world example on their site will help clarify how everything clicks together.

i know u said this is a project for learning, but static site hosting is pretty cheap and may provide less headaches as you’re learning. sites like porkbun offer it for $3 USD and i think even github has a free way tp host a static site. idk what running a computer at home would cost monthly in electricity.

comfyquaker , 3 months ago

very true. there really something liberating about about self hosting.

I got my 3ds LL from ali. works as expected and can play JP and US regions. its also white and it was pretty cleaned up when i received it. ive played through star fox a few times and I am halfway through OOT. approaching a year of ownership.

Ive bought a few handhelds and only had a DSi go bunk on me.

at this point amazon, etsy and other large online retailers/resellers serve the same stuff as aliexpress does, just with better shipping and return policy.

comfyquaker , 3 months ago

they must have done it or the system they refurbed had it done. i thought i initially when i was buying it i was getting a 3ds xl but arrived as an ll

I haven’t been to many places, but i really enjoyed Washington DC. I walked all over and saw many embassies, experienced most of the free museums, saw many monuments, and learned that it could get so humid in the summer that I would have to buy new clothes lol. historic buildings and decent public transportation. The restaurants in the area i was were amazing. many fond memories to look back on. i intend to visit again with my wife and kids eventually.

“Kiss Me” by Sixpence None The Richer

love to know how people interpret a “girl” song. my mind is all over the place atm trying to classify songs and artists. like, is Taylor Swift the bakery of girl songs? does boss bitch / bad bitch energy count within the realm of girl songs? etc.

comfyquaker OP , 3 months ago

Really appreciate all the comments and personal experiences with the game! Happy to feel I wasn’t the only one who had an initial hard time.

i learned my lesson on killing innocents when accidentally walked into the star station and they fine me all of my nuyen… still loving the game but i think I’m going to restart again with all the fresh new knowledge.

genesis seemed the way to go for this game (for my first experience). always interesting in the genesis snes console era where, despite the names of the games and their IP being the same, the experiences were very different. would love to see that confusion happen in the modern console generation haha.

thanks again!
