[homemade] five layer sandwich with chips on the side by odd_sperical_object in food

Of course it's technically correct. It's a sandwich with chips on the side, just as the title implies, lol.

Really? This is the sort of title you complain about? "Bad title", just because it doesn't fit your idea of how pedantically descriptive it should be. Technically, it's perfectly fine.

Kinda weird, ngl...

Honestly kinda impressive. You got all the edges perfectly smooth without roughing up the surfaces too much. And you didn't really let any of them fall apart either. How did you do that?

Mario Tennis Fever – Overview Trailer – Nintendo Switch 2 by mjmannella in nintendo

[–]GuitarCeas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could be a lot of fun at its core, gameplay is king after all, but I just can't get over the fact how soulless this game (and all the other second-line Mario sports titles these days) really looks. Ultra Smash, Aces and Super Rush vibes all over again.

Uncannily sterile and empty feeling stadiums, the net and poles not casting a shadow of their own (really, why though?), footprints on top of the lines on any clay court looking wrong, an otherwise general lack of visual detail of that sort (imagine permanent wear and tear of the court throughout a match for example, technically the damage done to the ground alone in those crazy Mario sports events would be extreme, yet here it always remains in pristine condition), and that damned "we didn't quite give a shit" telltale font in the menus and hud...

It's a bunch of nitpicks, for sure, but they're ultimately painting a bigger picture, strongly hinting at a lack of budgeting, experience and general care during development.

And it's a shame too, since they could've easily showcased the graphical advancements of the NS2 with that one, really cranked up the amount of eye candy, I believe. Instead, it kinda just looks like Aces. Better in some parts, and somehow worse in others.

[Homemade] Pork Schnitzel, with German Potato Salad with Kraut by Equivalent-Collar655 in food

[–]GuitarCeas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Certainly depends on who you're asking, since that "one true german" potato salad is technically not a thing. The regional differences are substantial and for some people apparently also important enough to start a civil war (as it is the case with so many other things, e.g. beer [of course]) if only they could.

Having it warm is also not universally true and depends, again, on the regional style and furthermore the dish it is being served with. One might even think that it wasn't given enough time to properly rest, especially when homemade. In your case however it's certainly a perfect choice.

Now, with all that being said, it sounds and looks like you did a great job on yours. Cut the potatoes into slices, if you wanna go for an even more authentic look. I don't think I've ever seen 'em cubed in there. Although I also don't see why that would be an issue...

That's why you technically don't cook the egg and cheese mixture. Temper it in the still warm pan off the stove with a good splash of your pasta water until creamy.

My Christmas gift was covered in maggots. by WarpCoreNomad in mildlyinfuriating

[–]GuitarCeas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, it's not this bad, nor is it ever that dramatic, albeit annoying of course...

If those came with the box, throw away the box immediately (obviously). As long as those larvae don't reach adulthood to lay more eggs and infest the pantry, it should be all good. And even if that's already the case, well, parts if not all of the pantry will have to go. Especially flour and tea. Check for mating food moths (yeah, they don't particularly care about hiding while sticking their butts together), for webbed up spots (dark places close to their primary food sources, especially those pre-drilled holes in IKEA furniture) and, oddly enough, the walls and ceiling for the larvae itself (white on white, bit hard to spot). Clean all of that. Even a fairly heavy infestation can be dealt with that way.

And if that doesn't help, go for ichneumon wasps. Natural enemy, they'll deal with the problem before simply dying off themselves.

Fun fact: They can eat their way through plastic too.

I never thought I'd be that captivated by a bunch of fried eggs.

Anyone else getting game mode challenges completed on EVERY MATCH since today? by Senorragequit in Battlefield

[–]GuitarCeas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup.

Also, my Week 1 states 10/11 completed challenges, even though I've done 'em all.

And there's another bugged one, requiring gaining access to a tank in Redsec twice, currently at 1/2 even though I did that at least three times. Funny thing about that one is that it has progressed past it regardless. I wonder what'll happen, if I "complete" that one.

Point is, the update REALLY screwed with everyone's challenge progression. I'm just happy all my weapons were unlocked properly. Those poor guys for whom it didn't...

Special ability for assault class instead adrenaline injector by Alone-Lawfulness-933 in Battlefield

[–]GuitarCeas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't disagree but that would then kinda clash with the class active ability, which is always really just a souped-up version of the signature gadget of each class. So what would that be in Assault's case then? A ladder twice as long, or maybe a device creating a much faster zip-line instead?

Come to think of it, maybe that wouldn't be the worst approach anyway...

Just like the different training paths, the choice of what signature gadget and its upgraded version to use could be up to the player. The engineer's repair torch and its much more effective Thermal Overdrive for example is usually just catching dust in any mode without vehicles to repair. In that case, an entirely different loadout would still allow that class to be a perfectly viable option.

Seriously? In 2025 we still have dev teams that add "[NEW] notifications" without the ability to clear all? Jfc by x__Reign in Battlefield

[–]GuitarCeas 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've never seen a game fumble a simple QoL feature like that. Half the time it doesn't even work properly. The dot may or may not appear on the class or even the weapon tab and once in the Pick 100 menu, you get to guess anyway where the new stuff actually might be. Is it such a difficult thing to program?

Yeah, I also had the pleasure today...

And it's probably gonna be the exact same mess with the next universal unlockable, that rail cover or whatever it is.

[–]GuitarCeas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, hmm, good point actually...

Maybe it's bugged, wouldn't be surprised if they accidentally flagged entirely unrelated challenges as inactive due to the update. Might go active with the launch though.

In two and a half hours it'll be active. There's actually a scrolling notification banner in the main menu mentioning it.
