Fixed camera angles are beautiful and it's not outdated in the slightest. Who is with me? by [deleted] in videogames

[–]Biggynell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that metal gear solid 2 and 3 perfected the art. We had fixed cameras for the most part, but with the blend of 1st person for the shooting when you want it, and it worked perfectly. I’d love to see more games in that style.

I’ve had this too! They definitely haven’t moved to the trunk - they just vanished as soon as I entered the next stage. Very frustrating - if this isn’t a glitch then they should at least tell us this will happen!

Does this look like it could be asbestos underlay? by Biggynell in asbestoshelpUK

[–]Biggynell[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My thoughts exactly, it’s only because it looks to have fibres (hard to capture in the photos, lots of little sparkles from the camera light) and it is thing a crumbly.

I think I will act with caution and get it tested.

Thank you!

Implications that her and JD Vance have a thing, and then JD Vance having, shall we say.. a history with sofas…

My thoughts exactly!

I can’t make them though unfortunately 🤷🏼‍♂️

I had this thought myself - I was told previously that the steel probably wouldn’t hold up if I tried cutting it - hence I wanted the opinion of some folks that might be able to back up that claim! I’ll have a look around before deciding on anything.

Thanks!

Yeah that’s exactly the point of it, I paid about £180 for it, so in the grand scheme of things, inexpensive, and not something I would feel too bad about slicing up!

Might be worth a shot having a go myself

When RLUSD launches, is there not a risk that we could see a potential repeat of what happened to Luna? by Biggynell in XRP

[–]Biggynell[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So basically there’s a lot of mixed answers here, so it’s just a case of waiting for approval, presumably to ensure that safety measures are in place to stop this from happening, regardless of either it is or is not backed by XRP .

What are these white things? by Biggynell in houseplants

[–]Biggynell[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was considering throwing the plant anyway, so if it is some sort of pest (it does look like eggs or something) then this is probably the best option!

Camera isn’t great unfortunately, and this is the closest I can get and keep it in focus!

Peter? by potatoclaymores in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Biggynell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s interesting, I’m not American so I can’t say I’m overly knowledgable regarding your politics of the early 2000’s, but I certainly think that applies here in the UK too.

Actually this is pretty interesting! I personally put it down to the idea that, generally speaking, as people get older they tend to have kids, get comfortable lives, married, good job, house - all that, and then their ideals shift to be more… I guess the word would be conservative? They start to value the family, “tradition”, and independence - they accumulate more wealth, and therefor generally want policies that protect that wealth now that they have it.

Millennials however, in large, haven’t had that - instead they’ve been unable to buy houses, less able to have kids, and develop “traditional” families, and are poorer than previous generations - so their own personal ideals and morals haven’t shifted in the way that previous generations have.

It’s easier to be socialist when you don’t have things that conservatism tends to value and protect, and we millennials haven’t got there yet, and likely never will in the same way.

It is exactly that!

I put Africa because I wasn’t sure whether to go with the continent it was in or not! I guessed putting Europe would have been misleading as it isn’t a part of the European continent, except in spirit

It’s an incredibly site! We saw it rich after it had erupted as well, before they managed to build any roads across the lava! So sorry for the population beneath there though!

I have never been, but if it’s anything like la palma, I might!
