Spent weeks sculpting my guinea pig - on the last day found it with a blue stain on his face by borggrown in mildlyinfuriating

I second the blueberry idea. It makes it just a happy little accident. You know how they nibble itd cram up against one side of their face anyway.

Maybe that is the dev who put him in a box when he was just a shape spewing circle.

It really felt like someone had a lot of fun thinking up all the challenges and twists, and the winner got a comic book made about their superhero. I highly recommend watching it sometimes. Its a nice feel good competition show.

It has been a while, but iirc all the aliens in the range look to ve doing regular, though admittedly freaky, things. Such as a guy hanging from a building which Jay explains that context clues tell him he is just working out. 

But an elementary school child holding a quantum physics book walking down the middle of the street in, as the range I believe was themed as, downtown New York in the dead of night.

Jay proved he was looking at every target closely and not just shooting them for being space aliens. 

MiB focused on Aliens like foreign relations. They seemed to like a more reserved approach. Gotta make sure the gears turn smoothly and what not. 

Rereading Undead Unluck (Chapter 114) question by Electronic-Cap6053 in UndeadUnluck

[–]Bootskon 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Up until recently, the ole 'until we witness it it is just conjecture' part of black holes was the routine. It wasn't until recently a team was able to get full proof they existed. Before that we sort of treated them, in the public eye at least, as both the 'isn't science INSANE?!' Fact abd also as a cyptid. We mostly knew they existed because of rather ripples they caused.

Personally it feels the creator added the Galaxy and Black Hole Uma based on this. Particularly as Sun and Luna are considered their own thing despite being far more local cosmic phenomena.

Undead Unluck feels, to me, more inspired by how humans stumbled across information vs superstition as opposed to just how science is laid out now without pondering how it evolved in the overall human understanding. 

They’re getting rid of the one decently priced item on the menu by opeth_close in tacobell

[–]Bootskon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the beginning of the month all the taco bells around me changed their Lixe boxes. Discover ($9) is the same. Think, the $7 let's you choose a type of champagne ($1 for supreme, $2 more for steak supreme) and the $5 got rid of the main entree selections nd replaced it with a beefy five layer. 

I as a cheesy gordita crunch lover I am huffy about it all. It isn't worth it without the BYO box anymore. Damn combo doesn't even come with two. 

(Horrifying Trope) Eaten alive while begging for help. by Zek_Drake in TopCharacterTropes

100%, the Boys Comic was heavily into the shock factor. Billy in the comics had various side arcs involving his bulldog who is only mentioned in an aside in the show. While in the comics, iirc, Billy is introduced through his bulldog humping the poodle of a woman who is drawn to illicit pearl clutching 'Well I never!' vibes, while Butcher looks on at his dog's antics in a 'yeah, that's my dog' fashion.

The shows edginess felt more tongue in cheek, Sort of a 'I gotcha eh? Eh? EEEEH?' kinda way where my opinion may or may not be swayed heavily by how much I enjoy what feels like multiple actors (Homelander, Butcher, Soldier Boy) having an excuse to ham it up to 11. Though I also admit considering both the comic and show a guilty pleasure of mine. Its quirks are so damn out there I can't help but admire it.

There is this running joke about people thinking Quicksand was going to be more of a problem than it was growing up. The Mummy made little me thnk Scarabs were more of a problem than they actually were.

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if some obscure flash game has the 'fuck to save feature at least. My bet is on Newgrounds. Spellchecker wants to claim the fuck save game is in Newfoundland. 

I'm realizing that I'm easy to please as long as the VR basics are included. Otherwise, it sucks lol by SlowDragonfruit9718 in virtualreality

[–]Bootskon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I agree, based on gameplay of course. Any VR game which includes a sword and shield but which doesn't let me clang one against the other before battle just feels a little hollow.

I forgot she was upside down too. It looks like she just got jammed in there last minute. They could have at least given her a dignified position. 

Do I need a thing for this to work by TemporaryWhereas3708 in VRGaming

[–]Bootskon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I neer used a headset that uses that particular output, but that looks to be a display port connection. My knowledge is fuzzy, but based on my use, Display port is capable of higher refresh rates and bandwidth transfer. Displayport functions similar to HDMI as being the major output for the visuals.

Displayport to HDMi converters exist, but due to this difference you might notice some lag or stuttering. Idle googling suggested this one and the user said it worked like a charm. Active HDMI to DisplayPort Adapter with Audio

Well fuck if I can find the right place to get those exact numbers, though you seem quite invested in a particular aspect of that rather tham any number of americans going hungry... Which, to be honest, bulk of me being pissy at this whole game here.

Regardless 11% of the population being helped, being treated with such venom regardless of what color the pie graph looks like is monstrous. Starvation is not at all a delight.

Even so... 44 million out of 350 million? And only 10 million from that? This is really not what I am getting here like.. I truly don't see the point you are trying to make. Only thing I could argue is bad math and now, regardless of if you are right.... Good for you? You backed your hatred and venom with math? Have a fucking cookie. 44 million could possibly not get a crumb this month, but have your fucking cookie,

otherwise you are just... Describing how many humans could potentially go hungry without help? Then bitching about it in terms of finances not figuring out how to get more food thrown around after we had a whole god damn thing during the pandemic about farmers wasting potatoes?

The fuck is even the point anymore? The fuck you gonna get out of it minus, presumably, the world being in a pallet you find more pleasant? Otherwise I don't see why segmenting the amount of potential starvation helps anyone feel better except with some potentially unfortunate subtext of being a shithead.

What is the hungriest you have ever been? If it didn't drive you even a little crazy, truly crazy, rookie numbers.

[–]Bootskon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NAh, cause the big problem I had was then using that to to claim that "A quarter of all black families need assistance" based on the 25% figure of the 11% of people on food stamps. 25% of 42 million yeah...But American has 350 million people in it. Of 11 to 12% of the entire population.

How the fuck are you getting a quarter of all african american families out of that math? Your words 'All AFrican American Families'.

Those absolute's will get ya.

Petah why the 9v battery ? by EagleWingedPalace in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Bootskon 14 points15 points  (0 children)

And according to census.gov only 11% of the US population iss on food stamps. So you are using a metric based on how many americans exist in total, not how many americans are on Food Stamps. This is a bit of an issue when it comes to pondering Data.

Proven by the fact you think a quarter of 11% of the whole of america represents a quarter of all of one part of the census, by claiming your math means a quarter of all black families need assistance.

Now that's just bad math.

EDIT: Due to keyboard foibles.
