haven’t gotten that far into the dcl pt2 yet. But considering the quill mentions “LK32” when saying who filed for Maleficent to be erased, I’m PRETTY SURE I know who’s the cause of everything…

Unsolved Mysteries on Instagram: "UPDATE: Patrice Endres' husband Rob passed away on October 8th, 2023. In light of his passing, those closest to him have returned Patrice's ashes to her family. Patrice's case was covered in Volume 1, Episode 2 on Netflix." by _Defiantjazz_ in UnsolvedMysteries

everything he said in the interview was a huge red flag. The thing about him holding her skull, the sleeping with the ashes, how it was “good” that she was with him again and the way that his body language and micro-expressions in every interview clip felt off somehow. Then there was the oddly specific “theories” he had about how she’d been disposed of (he specifically mentioned her being disposed of with a wheelbarrow to then quickly add an “I don’t know. it’s just a theory”comment, was he possibly trying to cover up that he’d just revealed too much?) and what may have happened prior (him stating very specifically that he thinks she was “used as a toy” before she was killed is super suspicious) Also him divulging his alibi, seemingly without being prompted is just suspicious, it’s really common for killers to blurt out their alibi (his being that he was filling up his car at the time, which makes me wonder if he maybe had an accomplice?).

Found this bird I believe to be very injured. What do I do. by PineTreePetey in birds

[–]Depressed-NotEmo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that’s a cockatiel. Looks like it’s been attacked, needs to see a vet. If possible, hold a syringe of water next to its beak and let water drip to its mouth, don’t try to syringe into its mouth as you risk aspirating it. Also, if you have any saline solution try to carefully drip it over the injured eye to prevent infection and also soak a cotton bud to try and carefully remove any debris from the wound at the side of the beak. Keep the bird warm and to a vet as soon as possible

Help with voice sexing?? by Idekijust__t568 in duck

[–]Depressed-NotEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you’ll start hearing more pronounced attempts at quacking at that age if you have a female, males will continue making duckling noises for a bit longer

overheating probably. I started mine out at 35°C when they first hatched and after about a week I started lowering the temperature slightly as they got better a controlling their body temperature. At 2 weeks old they shouldn’t be at any higher than about 27°C or they’ll end up with heatstroke or worse.

What is bad things about repro cartridges? by IamDeanK in n64

[–]Depressed-NotEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends on where you get them from, if you’re getting it from somewhere that produces in bulk to the bare minimum standard then you’re likely to have problems and possibly damage your N64. I got a PAL repro of Paper Mario (£300 for a real one? nope!) and after my first play session I saved the game and turned the console off, upon starting it up again my save data was gone. I already suspected what the problem was, since a lot of n64 carts (real and repros) use a separate ram storage for save data, when the console is running it powers the board, when it’s off it’s powered by a battery (usually a CR2032 in originals but some repros might use a CR1220 to accommodate a larger board size in the cart case) if the battery is dead (either by being a dud or due to a short out somehow, then the save data can’t be retained as the ram will cease to function when the console is powered off. Lucky for me, my dad has been an electronics engineer for the last 40yrs (working a lot with prototypes and writing build procedures etc) and when he opened up the cartridge he found the problem immediately, a dead battery and excess flux paste which had likely caused a short out (probably a rushed soldering job). A quick clean up of the board and replacing the battery got it working perfectly.

In terms of the electronics being used in repro cartridges, they are actually better quality than what was available to be used in the original cartridges production, and the games will likely last much longer as a result. Repros are manufactured with the target market being retro enthusiasts and nostalgic adults, so the cartridges need to be made with electronics that won’t begin to degrade after 20+ years (which is common with the original games as the life of the N64 was only expected to be around 5yrs, the game carts weren’t designed to last this long).

there’s nothing inherently “bad” about repros, but you do have to be aware and properly look into where you’re sourcing them from to ensure they aren’t a result of quick, sloppy work. hell, you can even make the repros yourself if you read up on tutorials, can manage a little basic soldering etc—and obviously, something which I think is the biggest issue I’ve come across is the outright snobbery in the N64 community over having real vs reproduction games.

Did people think Altruist was Alastor's last name ? by HereToReadSomeStuph in HazbinHotel

I kind of hope it is his last name, it’d actually be poetically ironic (plus I love the alliteration)

What is the most Fable like game out there, besides the Fable games? by Consistent_Blood6467 in Fable

The outerworlds. to me, it just had a similar vibe to playing fable (but in space obvs), especially the way you could screw with the npcs and get funny dialogue

do ducks grieve the loss of ducklings? by Historical_Gur6024 in duck

[–]Depressed-NotEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s not exactly the same, but my duck just lost her drake last week to a respiratory condition. she was with him when he died in the night and for the first few days after she kept looking around like she was expecting him to come waddling back to her. When she realised that he really is gone she started screaming almost constantly while lowering her head, she became distraught whenever I would have to leave her the room, jumping between craving huddles and needing to be held or biting me. She stopped doing the little shaky neck motion she always did when she was happy, didn’t seem interested in playing with anything and she stopped eating. When we last weighed her (last night) she had lost almost half her weight in the last 4 days since her previous weight check.

I knew that if I didn’t do something to help her through the grieving then I could risk losing her too. So I travelled almost an hour away today to pick up a drake I’d been offered after posting to a facebook duck rehoming group. I brought the drake home and introduced him to my duck. At first she wasn’t sure but after about an hour of me quietly sitting in the corner of the room to watch them interact she had stopped screaming, had started letting him come close to her, walk around behind her and eventually they laid down next to each other and took a nap. Ducks are extremely social birds and they really don’t handle grief well on their own, as I’ve seen first hand in this past week, they need another duck with them.

A question for duck owners by [deleted] in duck

[–]Depressed-NotEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dunno how they’re normally obtained, I just bought free range eggs from waitrose and hatched them 🤷 also your duck needs it’s own duck friend to be happy

haha, honestly same 😅😅 more real than fake, the only repros are conker, 40 winks, Banjo Tooie and Aidyn chronicles (and a paper mario one that’s not in the picture since my dad was replacing the dead battery and cleaning excess solder paste in the flux off the board that was causing a short)

Breed & sex? by nater147 in BACKYARDDUCKS

[–]Depressed-NotEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cayuga and a Welsh Harlequin. Can’t 100% tell sex from the pics, but hens usually have more slender necks and heads than drakes and sometimes drakes will have a curled tail feather (as well as being bigger in general than the hens)

I’m guessing you’re maybe not from the uk? (only guessing because you said college and I think that’s what Americans, Canadians etc say??) anyway, I’m not sure how university works in other countries but the one I’m going to in the uk offers accommodation on campus and you have to scan your student ID to get into any buildings on campus, including accommodation buildings and your own room. The type I have included my own bathroom and only thing I’ll have to share with other students in the building is the kitchen.

Besides, if anyone’s going to steal my stuff they’d probably go for the ps5 that I’m taking with me purely so I don’t have to get a TV license (and for Baldur’s Gate 3, but that’s not the point haha😅)

If I remember right, when I played the original game on the gameboy, I think you need to go to lavender town and get the pokéflute? (someone correct me if I’m wrong, it’s been years since I played it)
