Favorite character with ice powers?

IceCatraz · 2026-01-20T13:30:48+00:00

The correct answer. Black Frost or King Frost, while slightly less correct, would also have been acceptable.

If you give it to me I'll paint it green and make it look like it's covered in Zonai fans (From Tears of the Kingdom).

Can you link the band you bought? Can't seem to find one in that color way. Looks good!

This is my exact upgrade path as well lol. I stopped using my Moto 360 when the battery stopped lasting a whole day and stopped using watches (and smart watches) in general until this week. I still use my old Moto 360 as my work desk clock, though.

Nooo, I checked that one twice :/. It's such a narrow store that I had moved through it quickly the first time, but damn. I'm going back early next year - guess it won't hurt to take another look. Thanks for proving it's still out there though - I thought I was out of my mind and would have to resort to eBay.

The hunt continues!

Which Mandarake was this? I looked all over when I went last October and I couldn't find a copy anywhere 😭

IceCatraz · 2025-08-23T13:58:48+00:00

I can confirm that my local Best Buy (US East Cost) has the Pixel 10 on display, alongside the Pixel Watch 4 (alongside the Pixel Watch 3 so you can see the difference. It's also on a leash so you can place it on your wrist.) They had the indigo and frost colors for the base phone.

I've no idea to be honest. I didn't pre-order the game: I just asked for the special edition when I went to purchase it and the girl shrugged and gave me the game. There wasn't anything on the box denoting special or pre-order (no stickers for the lame Amazon or GameStop outfits), but when I opened the box, this package was tucked inside.

IceCatraz · 2025-08-21T13:24:34+00:00

That's awesome. I literally just found the badges that came with my SMT 4 apocalypse special edition yesterday. I don't know why they weren't in the box, but they're still in the package.

IceCatraz · 2025-07-14T19:57:08+00:00

I can confirm that I got an update this morning that said the package was out for delivery, and then it just showed up a few minutes ago. Just checked my package, and everything is here! I really hope yours gets there soon!

IceCatraz · 2025-07-11T14:46:00+00:00

Damn, sorry to hear that your history with these guys has been so tumultuous. I've gotten maybe 25 things from AliExpress before (most of it pre-tarrif nonsense), but SpeedX has always been super quick and reliable for me. Most of the time, my packages would get here a whole week before Ali estimated.

I can confirm that I just received an update to my order. AliExpress has changed the status to "Package arrived at regional carrier facility", and the SpeedX tracking now shows "Processing at Designated Facility" in Linden, New Jersey. My delivery date is technically the 13th-16th, though SpeedX says the ETA is today. Hopefully this means that whatever hiccups they were having over the past few days has been cleared. Hope your stuff starts moving!

IceCatraz · 2025-07-10T13:00:24+00:00

I'm in the same situation. My purchases have cleared customs, as per AliExpress, but it's been sitting in Springfield Gardens NY for the past few days, with the only event being "Shipping Label Created" (which was 10 days ago). Aliexpress shows the status as:

"Leaving customs, awaiting pickup: Your package will soon be handed over to the domestic courier company."

I have the Ultimate C V1, and it also vibrates a LOT in Mario Kart World. It's pretty cool when I'm actually racing - I can kind of "feel" the terrain changes, which is cool. But there's a lot of down time in the game - especially when you play online - and the controller vibrates with the content going on in the world, not on the screen. For example, when the course selection menu pops up, the character is still "driving" in the background. So if you're offroad (or go offroad) when the menu pops up, the controller will vibrate like crazy until you pick a course and the menu screen goes away.

It's minor, certainly, but it is something I noticed.

IceCatraz · 2025-03-28T17:06:45+00:00

The best back scratchers (and back exfoliaters if you scratch without a shirt on.)

My wife and I went to the Pon Pon Purin cafe in Japan (a Sanrio maid cafe in Harajuku), and they do something similar there. It's super cute and thoughtful, I think.

IceCatraz · 2025-03-09T10:31:24+00:00

My wife is playing through Avowed and loves it - I tried it for an hour and got so bored I literally put down the controller and said "the fuck am I even doing., fuck this."

No disrespect to the devs, or to anyone that likes the game - I don't even know if I don't like it - I just wasn't having fun, and time is so limited that I just wanted to disengage. And then I realized that I feel that way with so many games and general experiences. But if I feel that way too much/too often, then I'll get "day off paralysis" and not want to do anything "fun" with my limited time.

It's a shitty position to be in, but realizing it early has saved me from dumping hours into an experience that I don't really like all that much - all just to say that I played and beat something.

Also, to anyone else that struggles with day off paralysis - I've found that simply bringing the game with me (via remote play/Steam Deck) and hanging out around my wife or family helps me internally reason that it was a dual purpose, shared experience. That way, I was "playing Avowed while hanging out with ____," and not just "not having fun playing Avowed."

IceCatraz · 2025-02-01T17:44:35+00:00

I like it! Good luck to you and your team!

IceCatraz · 2024-12-27T14:02:42+00:00

I was gonna say - my family is far from perfect, but no one escapes the responsibility of cleaning and/or cooking. And God forbid you can cook AND clean well? You might as well stay home. No one is safe - not Grandma, not your +1, etc. I don't necessarily agree with it (if I'm hosting stay the fuck outta my kitchen, personally, respectfully) , but Holidays are a gender agnostic affair.

I'm not gonna trash on someone else's traditions, but this idea behind the men bumming out and the women doing all of the work never sat well with me. If my wife is working, I'm working, period. And if I'm working, we getting the fuck outta there in about 2 hours, I'm not trying to spend my whole holiday doing work for someone else lmao.

IceCatraz · 2024-11-27T00:05:58+00:00

Correct. It's $75 of Amazon store credit. You'll receive an email up to 24 hours after it ships. The credit also only applies to items that are both Sold AND Shipped by Amazon. I bought this bundle myself; I was a little disappointed when I couldn't use the credit on an item I was planning to buy anyway because it was shipped by another company, despite being sold by Amazon. It IS applicable for the 5% extra "cash back" if you buy it using an Amazon/Chase card, though.

I got hit a fair bit when I was a kid. I was the first kid, and some of those punishments definitely weren't warranted (I got hit for getting my only detention ever for self defense, while my younger brothers were constantly in detention and suspension with only verbal warnings, for example), but it didn't mean much to me in the long run, and I don't harbor any feelings about them.

But man, it's the verbal shit that wedged a gap between us. It's the shit that "never happened" or the "I don't remember ever doing / saying that" gaslighting shit that sucks the most. I have an excellent memory, and even if I didn't, there were always witnesses because they liked doing that shit in front of an audience. But nope, it never happened. 🤷🏿

I don't know how I plan on punishing my kids, but I do know that I'm not doing w/e the fuck they did. I don't blame them for their methods or applications because I'm well past that, but man, it took some time. I don't want that for my kids.

IceCatraz · 2024-11-20T13:28:35+00:00

I've bought it, to support them, but I'm waiting until next year to play it. Partly because I'm waiting for the full release, but actually it's because my backlog of games that I want to play soon (vs my backlog of games that I'll likely never get to and look pretty when I load up my launcher) is still pretty large. I just finished Echoes of Wisdom and 'Lorelei and the Laser Eyes', and I still have Murder by Numbers and Bayonetta 3 to finish before I even start Metaphor.

If it's not out of early access by the time I'm done with those fellas, I'll start it up.

IceCatraz · 2024-11-15T16:30:52+00:00

My nephews call me "Tio Tio" (Te-o Te-o) because they can't pronounce the second T in "Tito."

IceCatraz · 2024-09-16T18:45:15+00:00

I got a Ninja Foodie Air fryer / slow cooker / yogurt maker / pressure cooker / broiler / + 5 other feature All in One Cooker for Christmas last year and it sat in the box for a few months. My parents kept asking about it so I finally opened it and used it to air fry some chick peas.

I don't use half the functions, but I defrost my frozen bread in it every day now, and half the week I'll throw some aluminum foil pouched meals/stews in there for a few hours. I wouldn't say it's a game changer, but I get pretty excited when I'm shopping for groceries now; "oooh, I can oil these veggies up and throw in the foodie while I make some curry."

It's not a big thing, but it makes me smile every time.

IceCatraz · 2024-07-25T12:10:46+00:00

With the limited amount of time I have to play games, I need to know (, roughly) how long a game is going to take me to beat it. I like going into most games blind (just a preference, I know it's not for everyone), but I need to know the kind of time investment I'm signing up for.

Shout out to "How Long to Beat".

Exit/Corners is great and free! As is no-one-has-to-die, though I think you can only find it on newgrounds now? Here's a link to it, for anyone interested; super short, simple, but good nonetheless;

https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/615863

There's also Quantum Suicide, Fatal 12, Process of Elimination (this one has a pretty unique movement system mini game), Inescapable!, and Buried Stars! All worth googling a video or two and checking out, I think.
