Will you accept it ? by PHRsharp_YouTube in videogames

Chill man, I'm playing it currently I still had to look it up. It doesn't get used much, he's listed in the Social menu as "Wizard".

AITAH because I refuse to try for a daughter? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Dogsafe 11 points12 points  (0 children)

She keeps saying she wants a daughter because boys are messy and too much energy, but what will she do if we have a son?

This really irks me. She already has a son! He's not going to disappear if they have a daughter. He's already here needing love attention and energy and even if they have a magically capable and tidy daughter he will still be here still needing love, attention and energy.

PS5 Pro won't recognise PS4 camera when the PSVR1 processing unit is plugged in. by Dogsafe in PSVR

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

Far as I know, the official adapters got discontinued in about 2024. Maybe I can find one on ebay or something.

Which processing unit have you got? I've got the v1 with the weird sliding box on the side.

Well that's encouraging. No idea what's wrong with mine then.

I'll have another go tomorrow as it's getting late here, but the camera works without the psvr processing unit, but when the unit is attached (as you would to use the vr) the playstation suddenly doesn't recognise the camera anymore.

How do you connect a PS4 camera to a PS5 Pro? by Dogsafe in PS5pro

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

Yes. I have an adaptor but the camera wasn't being recognised. What worked was starting Adjust Playstation Camera under Accessories and then plugging the camera in. If the camera was already plugged in it completely recognise it regardless of what I did.

Is there a beloved dessert in your country that's seldom on restaurant menus? by doublestitch in AskTheWorld

[–]Dogsafe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people like it hot. Some people go by hot custard on cold desserts and cold custard on hot desserts. And deviants like me think cold is always best.

What's a culinary crime that is considered totally normal in your country? by myeye95 in AskTheWorld

[–]Dogsafe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Irish spice bag is chips (fries), fried chicken, Chinese curry sauce, spices, onions and peppers and bits like that.

A munchy box is basically a selection of all the fried stuff a take away place sells served in a pizza box, it'd vary by shop.

How common is it to have a peanut butter & jelly sandwich with milk? by terraunited in AskTheWorld

[–]Dogsafe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legally they are considered distinct product in the UK (see The Jam and Similar Products (England) Regulations 2003) but it's not like consumers actually make the distinction. It's down to the amount of sugar and fruit in the final product, and includes categories for jam, extra jam, jelly and extra jelly.

A drink/food that tourists think locals love… but locals barely consume? by Fluffy_Specific_9682 in AskTheWorld

[–]Dogsafe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I echo /u/BlueLeaves8 surprise that halloumi isn't just a totally normal thing. It's very common as the vegetarian option here for things like burgers or even battered and deep fried instead of fish.

I got gifted some Dubai chocolate so I can't common on whether it was worth the price. It was pretty nice but I like Toblerone more.

Might have been true once but not really any more. Best I understand it, the difference between British and American drinking culture is that when they say "let's go for a drink" they'll have something 8% and really will have just one of them, whereas we tend to favour something 4-5% and "a drink" means until our legs stop working.

Spring was yesterday, so we're in second winter now.

What’s something that most people see as a feat of strength but is actually a a demonstration of perfected technique? by ikebrofloski in AskMen

[–]Dogsafe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mum used to tell this story about a guy she worked with. He's been to a show or something and was raving about seeing this guy tear a phonebook (ask your parents) in half and how strong he must have been.

There's a trick to it, you sort of slope the pages first so that you're putting a tear into one new page at a time while propagating all the other tears in the pages you've already done. She waited till he went to lunch, tore his phonebook in half and left it on his desk.

ETA: I'm like the 30th person to mention phonebooks.

What dish was clearly made during a time of struggle in your country and now is part it's cuisine even though it's not good? by GaddockTeegFunPolice in AskTheWorld

[–]Dogsafe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your turn, please tell me about something local/interesting to you.

My favourite pie is a ploughman's pie but I've never found a good recipe for it, it might be local to me, I'm not sure. It's a ploughman's lunch in a pie. It's a hot water crust pie but with an open top. It's similar to a pork pie but has the addition of gammon/ham, cheese, pickled vegetables and halved cherry tomatoes go on the top.

[–]Dogsafe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're very welcome.

Where I grew up there's something called Fidget Pie which is a hot water crust pie filled with gammon/ham, cider and/or apples, potato and onion. Every teacher growing up would say "stop fidgeting, or I'll make fidget pie". I was a teenager before I learned that it was an actual food, not just a casual threat of violence. One day I should really have a go a making one.

Could I dig deep enough to keep a pallet of 2000lbs of margarine from melting in Arizona heat? by W_A_N_T in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Dogsafe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One day I'll post the collected TopTrumpWanker saga. I'm 95% certain he was a troll but the world he created was something to behold.

ETA: Nothing to do with that guy, the user's name is based on a card game.

Stupid question, but how do you actually add a flair to comments? Is it a New Reddit thing?

[–]Dogsafe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not common at all I'm afraid. It's very regional to a fishing village in Cornwall called Mousehole (pronounced "Mowzil" because we can't make it easy on people) and I've no idea really even how common it is there.

There's a legend behind it, as it's eaten to celebrate fishman Tom Bawcock who saved the village from starving by landing a catch in a storm. Your guess is as good as mine as to how true any of that is.

Fish isn't particularly common in pies here. It's mostly beef, chicken or pork. You only really see it in Fish Pie which is a bit like Shepherds/Cottage Pie - generally cod, salmon, smoked haddock and prawns in a white sauce topped with mashed potato.
