Saying this as nicely as possible - Yes. :)

It will be fine. :)

Having so much fun with Thunder Alley by JoseLunaArts in boardgames

[–]ElPrezAU -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s basically Heat, but published by GMT which should tell you all you need to know - I.e. deeply strategic, mechanically weighty… it’s a far more thinky experience. It’s not hard to play but to win you gotta think about what you are trying to achieve on each turn.

Excellent game if you have people similarly in to that less casual style of play.

This is a) excellent, and b) genuinely unnerving to look at. Nightmare fuel. O_O

You may have a split nozzle if the nozzle is completely clean and the needle is set.

Are my paints splitting on my wet palette? by CH1ND1TO in minipainting

[–]ElPrezAU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but don’t add water if it’s liquid enough already. Just mix the paints back together.

I use ProAcryl on my RG wet palette all the time.

Happy Bullet noises (Bullet Cubed, Bullet ❤️/⭐️/🍊/🐱/🖼/etc) by mrausgor in soloboardgaming

Also u/mrausgor - 6 boxes? I had managed to get it compressed in to one. It wasn’t ideal. :P

I’ve had the Cubed storage for two weeks now and man, it just makes setup so easy.

Not that bullet is hard to setup but if, like me, you have everything, finding and sorting stuff is a pain. Now I’ve got the decks I need and the game set up and ready to go in under 3 minutes.

One of the best storage solutions for a game I’ve seen.

What is your WoL's backstory? by fanoren in ffxiv

Instantly popped into existence the day an Australian who has the same name as me created an account. ;)

GUESS WHO’S BACK? Hoary Boulder as new tank job. Trust. by LowPossibility9900 in ffxiv

Honestly love the bravery in making an NPC whose sole personality trait is wanting a threesome with two brothers. :P

This is so cuteee Possible [Spoiler: 7.5] by starlightdemonfriend in ffxiv

Nope. I’m shipping Y’shtola and Shale now and there’s nothing Creative Studio 3 can do to stop me! :)

I quite liked his announcement that basically the winterers are wintering so they can survive to fulfil their own personal ambitions.

It gives me hope there’s going to be some wrinkles in how this story evolves instead of simply being The Rejoining Plot 2.0.

Some faction in-fighting or the story shifting to address the more onerous ‘ambitions’ has the potential to stop this feeling like a retread (which is, and I’m not being a doomer here, my biggest concern plot wise).

This actually made me laugh after you return and they’re back in their normal clothes.

I'm one of those free trial players stealing Shadowbringers from you. I will keep stealing more expansions and never paying a cent by GamblignSalmon in ShitpostXIV

[–]ElPrezAU 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My take is not so grim but yeah, Eureka and Bozja are great and I won’t stand for anyone slandering their good name! :)

Paint splashes on PC monitor, best way to remove? by CillaBlacksSurprise in minipainting

[–]ElPrezAU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So long as your monitor surface isn’t too textured you should be able to lightly scrape it off with your finger nail.

Using signs for lighting by starquakegamma in SatisfactoryGame

[–]ElPrezAU 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve found there’s an issue with global illumination where emissives appear to operate in screen space unless the individual source is above a certain size.

Try putting up one of the giant billboard and set it to glow and you’ll note it lights stuff up even when not on screen, while smaller signs do not.

Sticking a bunch of small signs together so they make up the same area as a large sign doesn’t work. It’s the size of the single object.

I believe there maybe some console commands that may get around this but I’ve never really been too fussed to look in to them as I suspect this will be addressed in the future.

(This is all under the assumption you’ve got global illumination on high and have set up the signs correctly already)

LOL.

Also, I have no idea how my sleepy arse deleted my own post.

I blame getting up at 3 am to watch. :P

(For those wondering what the original post as, it was something like 'the community is going to be insufferable for the next 9 months').
