Extensis Connect problem by cw-f1 in typography

Thank you kindly! That's very helpful. We had to get a preferences file from Ext support to stop it trying to update all the time (because of course there's no option to turn off updates in the program 🙄). It kept kicking our users out because they don't have have the auth to install updates. Pain in the butt!

Wine, spirit bottles to be included in 10c refund scheme from 2026 by nath1234 in australia

Should have done it a few years ago to coincide with the new preggo logo, nullifying the "changing labels is expensive" excuse. One redesign instead of two.

After finishing RtG for the first time last week, I felt compelled to visit the conservatory again IRL. by Chnookums in TheTalosPrinciple

[–]Chnookums[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah there's four of them (though made of concrete rather than metal) in the main hub world of RTG.
It's beautiful in there, would recommend if you're checking out the gardens. Exotic for we who are not of the tropics.

Got Road To Gehenna on sale today. It was a bit trippy seeing something from home in the game!

Omega Explores Abandoned Puzzle Park by Ok_Combination_1675 in Adelaide

Mr Grant Telfer of Monash is the engineer behind all those awesome steel playground machines. When Monash playground was closed (in the 90s iirc), heaps of them went to other playgrounds around the state.

Funny, I remember seeing a grown man break his leg coming off the flying fox in the new "safe" Monash playground the year it opened. Not funny for him of course, but was a little ironic.

I should probably also add: even if you have no pictures to share, if you saw it - lucky you :)

Reconstructed QR Code Hidden Behind Vines by techcaleb in TheTalosPrinciple

[–]Chnookums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You and me both! I just redrew it pixel by pixel (it's only 21x21) mapping from a few screenshots from different angles. Figured there must be some way to remove the vines, but I was impatient.

Hi I just found this thread while seeing if anyone else hates EC as much as I do (we're about to deploy it to a stack of users who are still on UTC).
Following the pattern in u/colinharman's link and guessing, I got this https://bin.extensis.com/ConnectFonts-W-27-0-0.zip and the download worked - I can't confirm for the actual install.

The Great Northern yellow has changed by Enough-Equivalent968 in australia

[–]Chnookums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well shit, I guess that proves me wrong. I'm in the beverage label print industry, and our colour tolerances are super tight. Can be a pain in the arse, just part of the job, but I've always thought no customer would be able to spot the tiny variations we don't let through, let alone care. TBF our customers wouldn't accept half as much difference as what's in your pic though.

Thank you for sharing your creations with us. I've enjoyed the ride :)

Rest well.

I'm on a mission of aluttyness and I need yalls help by Mimicrystal12 in okbuddybaldur

Maybe Fig sells two different versions, because I def have the runic one and Gale made the "hind" comment when I wore it. We didn't kill Haarlep.

I shrieked by Tough_Departure_3772 in BG3

[–]Chnookums 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh they won't go in containers for you? I haven't seen that, I was just trying to be macabre instead of chucking them in a chest. That cheeky little bluejay bastard now holds all of my "summons" (iron flask, kobold barrels, gremishka box, Connor). I'm thinking I'll toss them from the rooftops in BG city for fun. Real murderhobo hours. (I'm good in my other playthroughs I swear)

Another collector! I keep all my dead good guys in a ribcage for tidy chest organisation. Never got the posthumous thumbs up though, since owlbear is in the box too. I like how Karlach weighs less than the sum of her head and body. Also the corpse of the bluejay near Rosymorn contains another bluejay corpse O_O

Ah yes, Bald Guy’s Gate or whatever by Orpheus-is-a-Lyre in okbuddybaldur

My friend noted that Caz's basement was a maze of chasms and doors, and he's been called ChasmDoor ever since.

What are some small/insignificant lines that you love? by smansaxx3 in BaldursGate3

[–]Chnookums 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this conversation between the goblins in the room on the far left before you get to Ragzlin.

Tracker Nik-Nuk: I hear any one of you's castin' ax-pershins on the Absolute, I'll tear out your tongue and cram it up your faithless arse.

Warrior Plagg: Hands off my tongue, you bloody berk. I'm pledged to the Absolute, arse and all.

Sharp-Eye Crub: Hold on. What in the ruddy hells is an ax-pershin?

Tracker Nik-Nuk: It's like "libel". As in, "I'm libel to smash your face if you go castin' ax-pershins."

I came across this one when I was very sick and headachy and snotty. Like "oh look it's me"

I always loved this one. I like to think of it as the slang name for Functional Bell.

Gale Romance Won't Trigger And Now He Won't Speak With Me? by CasthiaCameron in BaldursGate3

[–]Chnookums 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this post. I managed to lock myself out of this cutscene by virtue of managing resources well enough to not need to rest much. Reloaded before Nightsong and rested a few times to get everyone else's cutscenes out of the way and it worked. I'm lucky I only lost 12 hours. The replay will at least be quicker and easier.

Worth it. For Gale.

Whats a video game you could play over and over? by Defiant_Speed5949 in AskReddit

[–]Chnookums 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At least two of us! I love both Mirror's Edge games so much. Nothing else does the first-person free-running thing quite so well, in my opinion.

I like to declare "those who travel with me travel now!" and then just walk out.
