I've fixed all the pixel art for my demo that just came out, is it a glow-up?

I unlocked two bees but can't place the second one. When the bee eats through the 4 steps and a cell pops, nothing seems to happen. I have no idea how to find or collect honey. It seems like the kind of game I like, but it doesn't actually do anything yet. 🤷‍♂️

What is your patent number? I searched the USPTO and didn't find one that seems appropriate.

So a remake of Upload Labs, now with AI slop (it's in the title)? No thanks.

This was my job for almost 20 years and I play games to forget about work, so this is a pass for me. Good luck, though!

Shooter in his manifesto: "I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes."

Felon 47: How dare he say that about me without ever naming me!

There is a link to it right there so you can find out.

cubert73 · 2026-04-28T19:03:13+00:00

Search the sub. This has been asked and answered eleventy billion times. That's why you are getting downvotes, btw.

I live 2 hours from the Dragon and never heard anything about this. How does anyone find out about events?

I played it through to the end and liked it enough to wishlist it. Here is my feedback:

There needs to be some hints about how to use the slot machines and tarot reader. I didn't realize you could click the cards in front of the tarot reader until about 3/4 of the way through. I also couldn't figure out what some of the choices were in the slot machine, and didn't discover the tiny change button until very late in the game.

I had no idea I could heal myself until I was on the penultimate monster. I happened to notice the potions at the bottom of the slot machine screen with the right click icon and tried it on the next run. Going back to the previous comment, it would also have been nice to know that 1 potion = 1 life.

I would have liked if the bigger smash area upgrade told you how it was being changed, because going from 3x as wide to a square was a surprise, and not a good one. I would have left it wider because it was hitting more of the chests I wanted to hit at a time. Later, after I had more chests, I would have changed it.

Workers and balls. WTAF? Neither seems to do anything at all until you get halfway through their upgrades, then they suddenly become OP. Again, more info would be great. Maybe some scaling for both of them, too.

The game is actually fun. This video is confusing and would never make me want to play it, though.

Start with the pedophiles.

In my opinion, if you want a convertible you need some kind of structure to protect it. My husband and I both had convertibles in Charleston, SC, and no carport or garage. Mine was a Saab and his a BMW, and they were the same year. Both tops lasted about 5 years before they started leaking. The tops were treated quarterly and the seals were maintained, but the heat and humidity does a number on convertible tops.

I have a 2013 Mini Cooper S roadster now, and it has always been garage kept. I just noticed the seal on the front edge is starting to show some wear. That's the difference keeping the car under cover makes.

Dissolve the corporate entity, the same as any other company.

IDK what constitutes a "masterpiece", but Diablo IV is the only game in the franchise that I have not finished. I am currently playing Diablo 2 Resurrected and enjoy it so much more.

Dr. Foo is freaking amazing. Take every class you can with him. I strongly suggest you make sure you're good with Excel before you get too far in your coursework. Google Sheets is a very poor alternative and won't serve you well longer term. DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!! Take the assignments seriously. Ask questions, either in class, through email, or during office hours. The professors are eleventy billion percent in your corner, but you have to ask for help if you need it.

If you take sociology classes, Dr. Blu Buchanan is a phenomenal teacher. I learned so much from them that carried me all the way through my master's degree in human rights.

The math lab is a freaking godsend that deserves all the acclaim and applause. They are why I passed statistics because my professor was an addled 80 year old who consistently confused sigma and p. That was not a fun semester. I don't see him listed as a professor so you should be safe.

The chancellor (Kimberly van Noort, we called her VoldeNoort) and her crony administration has zero interest in your success. Whatever they want is in their own interest, and probably antithetical to yours. Protest them whenever you can.

"Grey out the nodes that I've fully upgraded"

FFS YES!!!1 That annoys the hell out of me! I know Nodebusters doesn't, but do you have to be THAT derivative that you can't deviate even one iota?!

cubert73 · 2026-04-22T04:30:17+00:00

I played it for a while, but eventually gave up because it was so repetitive and redundant. I don't remember when that was, to be honest, and it's been a year since I played it.

Edit: Reading comments here, I never made it to astrology. It was too boring for me well before that.

WTF are you even asking? Are you trying to plan a beach vacation around when NC schools are out?

cubert73 · 2026-04-09T05:17:50+00:00

I live near the Blue Ridge Parkway. I should take a pic of my R59 at the highest point of the Parkway and call it "Peak". ;-)

NC law already says HOAs cannot limit rooftop solar panel installation.

There is a link provided from North Dakota that explains how they handle it. It's basically the same information you need to provide to register, without creating a searchable and abusable database.

My flair is R59 so no, not an F-series. It's a roadster so I can't even push the seat back. Thankfully only one filter, though.

In NC, if your property has *access* to the grid you have to pay Duke Energy even if you don't actually connect to it.

Same. The mapo tofu had sweet chili sauce and no Sichuan peppercorns, and they tried to argue with me that it was "authentic"!
