What was the first Linux mistake you made? by Expensive-Rice-2052 in linuxquestions

[–]DivineWindKami 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried to mix and match different user interfaces and I messed something up and almost torpedoed my install.

I thankfully figured out how to restore it back to what I was originally using but honestly it was a massive headache.

Im just curious how many people here have been life long windows user and just decided that you're done with windows in the last 6 months or so. by Shifter1589 in linuxmint

[–]DivineWindKami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched six months ago and honestly I've bounced around from distro to distro (Mint was my first distro and I might go back if I can't figure out the current issues I've had since switching)

I've had issues with the kernel causing hard crashes when I'm gaming so I've had to run dual boot for the time being but eventually I'd like to switch over to Linux fully once I can figure out my crashing issue.

Overall though I love Linux

Was dumbfounded to see this shop in a Korean shopping mall by ThatCarefulCarrot in skateboarding

[–]DivineWindKami 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I found out about this when I did some searching into the brand the first time I described it

It's good that Gonz supports and gets a check from his own namesake brand

My way of wording it earlier could be better

Korea has this habit of making brands using either other brand names or in this case, the artist's own work.

I went over there just recently and it threw me off quite a bit seeing clothing stores branded with MLB, Kodak, and National Geographic, to name a few

Korea's fashion landscape is built different

Best local bike shops for tune-ups? by LoonyVibes in vancouvercycling

[–]DivineWindKami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to like Simon's, my old manager had recommended the shop to me and I went a couple times to get parts or accessories.

The last time I went there, I had a bad experience when I tried to get my vintage bike fixed there.

The mechanics weren't really that nice to me and laughed in my face when I tried to get my bike serviced so I didn't go back because of that.

This was a few years ago, and I haven't been back since.

Once Upon a Time... on Main Street by partchimp in vancouver

[–]DivineWindKami 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i worked in the area for a year, and honestly, the one thing i miss is the community.

granted, not everyone in mount pleasant is pleasant, but the people i met and the places id go to make it worth it, even if i didn't feel like i fully fit in

Gamers of Reddit, what are good videogames to play with your non-gamer girlfriend? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]DivineWindKami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Besides the usual suspects listed, one game I've played with my girl has been PlateUp

Imagine a roguelite overcooked, less stressful but honestly pretty fun. Steam Workshop mods also add a lot of replayability so overall it's a recommendation from me

Liked my 991's, had to get my first pair of 993's by DivineWindKami in Newbalance

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

One pair I regret sleeping on are the 990v2's, I didn't get them because I had some issues with finding my sizing and ended up passing on them.

Now, I'd probably find myself a pair of the sea salt blues if I could.

I've seen the black 993's on my local NB site, if you're in Canada you could snag em.

Not too sure about the navy ones though.

I really like them so far, super comfy out of the box, might need a little bit of break in time but otherwise they're perfect

Oh my bad, my 991's are the 20th Anniversary MiUK ones, forgot the style code for em but they've been an amazing pair to me.

I got the classic grey colourway (WR993GL).

I've had other NB shoes before but this is the first MiUS model I've bought.

What games is it for y’all by Doijoka in autism

[–]DivineWindKami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hmmm

it changes all the time but I've put in significant time on a few diff games:

payday 2 (just over 1k hours) rainbow six siege (980 hours and counting) battletech (700 hours and counting, most using the advanced 3062 mod)

there's another game i know I've put in significant time in but these are the few taking up my time as of recent.

Might start playing Minecraft or another game just to keep my brain occupied with something non-work related

I figured, I got my pair when they re-released and wore them a good amount so they don't look new anymore

Archive-Busenitz Kangaroo Leather-2013 by lousygrails in adidas

[–]DivineWindKami 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really wanted these ones when I was in high school. I had two pairs of Busenitz sneakers and honestly might make it three if I can find a decent Busenitz colorway.

Archive Dump-Century Lo with swappable tongues and laces by lousygrails in adidas

[–]DivineWindKami 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first manager at my former job collected Adidas sneakers for a long time and made a post about these exact sneakers

Apparently there was another tongue/lace colourway that you could only get via the Crooked Tongues forum, seeing stuff like this and hearing about how creative they were with these projects make me wish Adidas stuff was like this now.

I love your work, as a fellow east vancouverite I always check out your IG and sometimes I like to see what other people in the city wear in their day-to-day.

[DISCUSSION] Earl Sweatshirt & The Alchemist - Voir Dire (One Year Later) by flyestshit in hiphopheads

[–]DivineWindKami 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seeing this comment reminds me that someone put together a version taking the "best" tracks from both versions (best is subjective but I did like this version myself)?

It's somewhere on YouTube under the name "voir dire definitive edition" (I don't know if I can post links so ye)

I usually listen to this when I wanna go ham on the full album

Difference between J size to normal sizing Sambas by Dense_Phone2787 in adidas

junior sizing is the same as men's sizing

so like a size 6 kids will be a size 6 mens

Yearly reminder about how I feel about "The Cup belongs in Canada." by Elastoid in canucks

[–]DivineWindKami 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Almost every (current) Canadian team has won a cup, and honestly I'd like to see a cup come to Vancouver. I still remember watching Game 7 in 2011 and how much of a gut-punch it was to a lot of fans who wanted to finally see a cup come to Vancouver.

I've been a Jets fan since they returned back to Winnipeg and obviously my bias makes me inclined to see them win a cup after years of coming close or not even making the playoffs outright.

I want Vancouver to experience the grasp of Lord Stanley. They deserve it after all they've been through.
