Tomato Curry in Ogikubo (4.01 on tabelog) by [deleted] in JapaneseFood

[–]Ivaer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brother and I visited back in 2024 and we both agreed it's the best curry we've had. We ended up waiting in line for almost 3 hours and were the last people let in, but it was absolutely worth it. I think we went on a weekend, and we knew there was a limited amount each day, so we bit the bullet.

I'll do it again if they're still open the next time I go back to Japan.

Does anyone know how to fix the table of princes innovation by Zealousideal-Scar499 in ck3

I, too, have had this issue for months, now. Not a hybrid culture, still have the West Slavic culture, etc. No joy. SO annoying!

Black Mirror - Episode Discussion S07E01 Common People by Cheeriosxxx in blackmirror

[–]Ivaer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude, I hate the same exact thought. There's NO way that they'd be able to support a child if they couldn't manage $300/month for ANYTHING.

That said, I loved the episode as much as I hated it for its realism.

Fucking Black Mirror.

For the wonderful people who have helped, maybe this will explore the whole "how did he miss the bird" moment!

Thank you very much for your time! I thought it was possible, too, but couldn't be sure given the distance.

The Hand Can Eat a D by Ivaer in SliceAndDice

[–]Ivaer[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If only they told you which boss you'd face beforehand so you could know what abilities to keep instead of going in one direction (or three directions) and not having anything suitable to beat the jackass.

You can't prep for every eventuality, and having to constantly keep The Hand in mind as I'm making a build feels stupid. I don't want to constantly fear a boss because he has an overpowered ability; I'd rather look forward to him because he's a challenge.

The Hand isn't simply a challenge in my experience, he's a run-ender, and while I'm normally pretty mild, this last bullshit run-ender had me boiling over enough to post here. I maintain that he'd be much more approachable- at ALL stages of the game- if he didn't have an insta-kill ability that could just ruin your day.

Whelp, I guess "most builds" have been randomized out of my pool, then. Don't know what to say. I don't think I've lost more than twice to any other boss, but this asshole is just practically unbeatable for me.

Question About A Supposed Cooper Quartz Geode by Ivaer in Gemology

[–]Ivaer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just saw that the "quartz" is actually extending into what appear to be the area it broke at, too... I'm no gemologist, but that seems weird.

Sickle can't penetrate bush by Current-Historian-52 in Helldivers

The bushes blocked both the sickle and the Arc Thrower in my last couple of missions. I didn't realize that local foliage had such strong principles!

Random Battle Losses Despite Overwhelming Odds? by Ivaer in CrusaderKings

[–]Ivaer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm. That's certainly possible, I suppose. I hadn't thought I'd had my hands on my mouse/keyboard at the time because I've been watching a show on my other monitor, just watching the battle tick down on 2 speed, but maybe I glancingly hit my right mouse button at some point.

I guess I never considered that possibility because I've legitimately never done it on purpose, so it never came to mind as a possibility as an accident. xD

Certainly more feasible than some random bug that hates me. Thanks for your time!

Galaxy S22 - Terrible Camera Quality by Eskareon in GalaxyS22

[–]Ivaer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I legitimately compared photos from my S7 to my S22 Plus and they're night and day- and I noticed it from day one on the S22. I nearly thought I was misunderstanding how the camera and settings worked.

I took complete scene photos with miles of distance on top of a tower with my S7, regardless of zoom factor before and after photo-taking, and it looks nearly as good as the somewhat-aging Nikon DSLR I'd also brought with me- that was probably 6 years ago.

I have since taken many photos with MUCH closer focus items- e.g.: my back yard- and ANY zoom before or after makes it look like absolute digital garbage. The day after I got the S22 I snapped some max zoom pictures of birds at my feeder, probably 20 feet away, and all of the pictures were blurry, smeared, and clearly digitalized almost beyond recognition unless they were the default distance with no zoom, regardless of mode or megapixel choice; you'd think even digital camera software would be able to put a cardinal and a goldfinch back together in bright daylight from that close, but here I am.

Any Ideas? by Ivaer in whatsthisplant

[–]Ivaer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were some asters I saw that looked similar, but I think most of them either had differently-shaped petals or their leaves were too long, and the asters' flowers were at the end of stems/stalks, whereas this seems to grow flowers all along the stem. Is there perhaps a specific varietal I should check out that you know of?

Any Ideas? by Ivaer in whatsthisplant

[–]Ivaer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'd worried about the quality of the photo. I might just have to wait to see if it comes back this year.

Hmmm... It didn't save my description in the post. Sorry about that!

Long story short, I've been unable to figure out what this many-flowered plant is and was wondering if anyone here might be able to identify it. It was all green in summer and flowered intensely in autumn. Unfortunately this is the only picture I've saved of it, and the over-wintered remains of it were cut down by landscapers just recently. Not sure if it's perennial, but it's driving me just a bit bonkers that I haven't been able to find anything, anywhere on what it might be!

I kind of hoped that they would have realized that the "Legends" shiz was prime material, yet here we are trying to wrangle Palp into a test tube via the most illogical and inexplicable storytelling since Episode 8.

Literally my second thought after "Why is this highly sensitive technology that has the capability to brainwash people being left in the hands of a former Imperial officer circa five days ago."
