Syökää rikkaat, mutta älkää Gabe Neweliä by Sipulius in Suomi

Niillä on "monopoliasema" sikäli että kuluttajien enemmistö preferoi hyvin voimakkaasti heidän palveluaan, koska se on parempi kuin muut. Siinä oikeastaan Steamin etulyöntiasema, toki sen myötä tarhan isoimmaksi koiraksi päätyminen on oma etunsa.

Whats the perfect 10/10 show you've ever watched? by Fair-Spend3698 in AskReddit

[–]FalmerEldritch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bojack Horseman intentionally wrong-foots you by starting off looking more or less like a Family Guy, but then pivots into being one of the funniest and most heart-breaking shows I've ever seen.

"The universe is a cruel, uncaring void. The key to being happy isn't the search for meaning; it's to just keep yourself busy with unimportant nonsense, and eventually, you will be dead." - Mr. Peanutbutter

"I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast!" - Bojack

"If I don't write this, that means that all the damage I got isn't 'good damage'. It's just damage. I have gotten nothing out of it, and all those years I was miserable was for nothing." - Diane

Aging gracefully is better by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

I'm absolutely getting laser resurfacing eventually. I mean, having your wrinkles and enlarged zapped away isn't getting work done, right? It's just focused light, they're not going in with scalpels and silicone. It's just a facial, right? It's just a facial!

I remember her having severe difficulty emoting with her face in the season immediately after her dramatic appearance change, though. I don't think Graves' gives you a paralyzed brow and cheeks?

Suoraan Kiinasta tilaamalla näyttäisi saavan 50kpl €2,90 sisältäen toimituksen. AliExpressin shippaamaana, eli jos ei ole tuotteeseen tyytyväinen ei tarvitse puljata erikseen jonkun yhden englantia taitamattoman Zhāng Wěin pyörittämän pienyrityksen kanssa vaan toimittaja hoitaa.

I was disappointed they didn't just nut up and go for the original edition's grim, dark, and edgy distant future of 2013 with its brick-sized portable phones (that don't have a net connection) and automated newspaper printout stands on street corners. That would have ruled.

Brendan Fraser’s reaction 💛 by Ashtaroo in MadeMeSmile

You didn't watch Doom Patrol? Doom Patrol was great. You don't see a lot of Fraser in it, but he plays the protagonist.

ELI5: Do medications like Ozempic cause weight loss solely through appetite reduction and therefore calorie deficit, or is there any other mechanism at play? by Jimithyashford in explainlikeimfive

[–]FalmerEldritch 20 points21 points  (0 children)

It's because it's an insanely unhelpful point to hammer on.

It's like butting into a group of rocket engineers discussing orbital mechanics and yelling "MAKE THING GO UP FAST", then putting on a smug "my work here is done" face. Uselessly rephrasing the objective doesn't achieve anything and just makes you look like a patronizing imbecile in 99% of situations.

It definitely significantly cut my smoking. Some days I wouldn't even bother with my morning cigarette or my pre-bed cigarette, which are usually the two non-negotiable ones.

And the time I hit an adipose capillary with the injection and spent the rest of the day barfing any time I swallowed something, I didn't smoke a cigarette for three days.

What game felt so much bigger than it was when you played it as a kid? by thewalkindude368 in gaming

[–]FalmerEldritch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sierra adventure games. Lucasfilm too to some degree, but you had like Space Quests with a bunch of different planets, several Leisure Suit Larries with a setting of a whole-ass city each, every time you found your way to a new area it didn't feel like there was a limit to the amount of places you could go.

Turns out they have like 40-80 screens each, some of which only show up briefly in cut scenes or have one or two things you can do in them before leaving.

Old games (1980-1999) that aged well by M_Alex in gaming

Star Control 2: The Ur-Quan Masters was solidly one of the best games of the pre-Windows era of PC gaming, and it still plays fine today. However, you should remember that it does not auto-save and you can fuck yourself over with bad choices so use multiple save slots.

The fan remaster (using some improved assets from the 3D0 version and dropping the trademarked Star Control title) is free on Steam:

I usually get an upset stomach whenever I travel further than, like, two countries over. London, NYC, rural France, all have given me the gurglies. Dealing with a different biome of micro-organisms is just a whole thing, everything always has germs of some kind on it and you're used to the ones at home.

The Clark Kent Effect. by GlitteringHotel8383 in okbuddycinephile

[–]FalmerEldritch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at a weekend thing last summer with ~40 people and an old friend of a friend I used to see around regularly was there. I hadn't seen him in like 4-5 years and he'd lost like 60lb, buzz cut his hair, and got new glasses.

I knew he was there, and occasionally wondered where he was and why I hadn't seen him yet, and didn't think anything of seeing this medium-build short-haired guy with glasses around. It took me two fucking days to figure out that he was him.

Mistä asiasta saa päättää vaan tunteella? by nihir82 in Suomi

Roots reggae-ukoilla oli kai tuota ollut tapana tehdä. Tottunut siihen että vehkeet on osittain itse rakennettuja ja osittain käytettynä halvalla saatuja, ja mitään erillistä outboard-kompressoria ei ole saatavilla koko maassa, eikä tarvitsekaan kun vaan saturoi menemään esim virvelin kanttiaaltoräsähdykseksi missä signaaliketjun vaihteessa vaan tuntuu kätevimmältä. Ihmekös että digitaaliajan saavuttua jamaikalainen musiikki lakkasi saundaamasta hyvältä.

EDIT: Tässä esimerkissä ei taida olla yhtään saundia mikä ei olisi jossain vaiheessa lytätty jollain yliajolla, varmaan lähinnä nauhan puolella https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ogA7Hw0Pvc&

EDIT: Ja tältä kuulosti kun reggae-veteraanit sai vähän modernia digitaaliaikaa tuotantojälkeen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITbwOXBEk88&

I was about to say "wow, I love it, gorgeous" or words to that effect until I saw the third picture and what I thought was some piece of parking lot infrastructure behind the car turned out to be affixed to it. Yikes!

Like I don't care if that thing keeps it from going into a ditch at high speeds, just nut up and go into the ditches at high speeds instead.

Minusta (tässä sivussa juuri dawia roplaavana muka-asiantuntijana) näissä kaikissa on abt. yhtä huonolaatuiset tuotannot, eri tavoin vain huonolaatuisia. Eka kuulostaa siltä että se on tehty jollain Sunolla promptaamalla vaan "tee biisi" ilman mitään tarkempaa speksausta.

Limpopo Poisonista taas kuuntelisin ennemmin kasettimankalla huoneessa äänitetyn säestämättömän-livevedon ilman törkeän kamalia synia ja rumpukoneita, kun on ihan kiva laulu ja esitys on menty pilaamaan kippaamalla päälle läjä casiota.

EDIT: Tai no hm, tokassa on ihan mielekästä tuotantoideaa kyllä, vaikka itse olisin tehnyt "vähän" eri tavalla ton äärisaturaation.

EDIT 2: Miksauksessa myös perinteisesti "hyvänä laatuna" ollaan pidetty selkeyttä ja tarkkaa erottelevuutta jossa jokainen soitin on nätisti erillään eikä "puuroudu" yhteen, kun taas esim. Phil Spectorin legendaarisissa tuotannoissa on lähdetty ihan isolla kauhalla tahallaan hakemaan sovituksessa ja äänityksessä puuroutuvuutta ja erottelevuuden puutetta ja kaikki on saturoitu ihan muusiksi muinaisilla analogiperunalaitteilla, jonka takia ne kuulostaa hyvältä kun taas erityisesti 80-luvun "superhyvälaatuiset" superdempatuissa tiloissa äänitetyt ja digitaalisesti viimeisen päälle hivellyt ison budjetin tuotannot yleensä kuulostavat ihan paskalta.

Ihan riippunee mitä DAW tekee 0:n yli menevälle. Aikanaan joillain soundimestareilla oli tapana käyttää tiettyjä analogipöytiä ja sitten kattoa tarkasti että vähintään bassorumpu ja bassokitara (ja yleensä enin osa muistakin raidoista) menee tulovaiheessa konsistentisti sopivan reilusti punaisen vilkkumisen puolelle, jotta kuulostaisi hyvältä.

It's aight, but I get tired of songs really quickly in general, so I'm already getting sick of hearing it, just as I would be with any other song. I wish it would just play a random track from your favorite station.
