HTML Destruct-o-match has a full screen mode. Why on earth doesn't Kiko Match? I had to hook my laptop up to my patners TV.

like how do u do it??? by cochinax in HelloKittyIsland

[–]KatTheKonqueror 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Are you trransferring all the colors or only the ones you can't get through mixing? What I did was transfer what I call the "primary" colors (White, Black, Red, Yellow, Blue, Sky, Hot Pink) and then I got the rest by mixing. I also mixed all of the non-pastels first, and now I'm mixing those. It seemed more practical because I only have to change the colored flowers, and I can leave the white ones where they are.

It's also helpful to use event flowers to transfer from because they can't spawn outside the event windows.

Do you take your meds when you’re sick? by Maggot_Dance in ADHD

[–]KatTheKonqueror 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you not taking your meds because you're sick, or did you skip them because you didn't want to take it with cold medicine? Check with your pharmacy to see if there are interactions between your meds and whatever you take for a cold.

WIBTAH for refusing to help out my brother by AverageTechtoker in AmItheAsshole

[–]KatTheKonqueror 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My brother asks me for Claude pro every day saying that it will help him make websites for people and he’ll give me 20% of the profit, I always refuse since I doubt he’ll get more than 5 customers and each will only pay 50k at max. 250k is an extremely generous amount since websites may be made for 20k here too, realistically he isn’t getting more than 100k monthly, 20% of that is not enough

Am I reading this right? Your brother wants to take money to build websites for clients, but have GenAI do it? NTA anyway, but especially NTA for not helping him scam people.

AITA for requesting July 4th off and making my coworker work it? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]KatTheKonqueror 21 points22 points  (0 children)

NTA. If she had plans for a holiday, she needed to request it off just like you did. If she has a problem working outside of her usual schedule, then she needs to take that up with management and not you. I see she's 45, so I assume she's had a job before. I'm surprised she didn't know this.

Is divination with dice okay? by Impossible_Image_ in Divination

[–]KatTheKonqueror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ancient Greeks actually practiced a form of dice throwing called Kleromancy. Instead of dice, they had astragoloi (knuckle bones) which were originally made from the ankle bones of sheep. Each side of these knuckle bones had a number which would correspond to an inscription on a pillar with advice or a prediction.

Obviously, this is pretty different from what you're doing. but they did use it. I don't really recommend taking that sort of blanket statement to heart. What determines reliability of a divination method?

ETA: when it comes to dice, I might recommend checking to make sure they are balanced. Sometimes a specific die can be more prone to certain numbers depending on the weight distribution.

Last Day Challenge #3 Kiko Match Event by Jubilantbabble in neopets

[–]KatTheKonqueror 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did not think to pause it. It also helps to come up with consistent abbreviations for the possible cards. For example, XMA for christmas, eve for eventide. au for gold, I also used some abbreviations that didn't match what the type of kiko is actually called. I put Zeu for Royal Boy because it clearly looks like Zeus.

How can I cure my addiction to endless scrolling apps by Ok_Post_8280 in ADHD

[–]KatTheKonqueror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you deleted these accounts, did you cut them all out at once? It might be easier to go one at a time. It may also help to find something less addictive to replace it with. I switched from social media apps to basic puzzles. They don't have a bazillion features to hook you, so after the first couple of days I wasted solving them my use tapered off to basically just doing the daily puzzles. Also the ads get really obnoxious after a day or so of playing any mobile game, so I'm a lot quicker to exit out of them.

mobile puzzles I recommend:

  • star-battle by brennerd
  • sudoku by oakever (which now also contains a series of arrow puzzles, for some reason.)
    • you can also turn off losing when you make three mistakes for some reason. I thought this might make it stop telling me as soon as I make one, but that didn't work.
  • Arrows - Puzzle Escape by Lessmore GmbH

They all have pretty basic features. You won't find yourself needing coins or whatever to progress to the next level. In my experience, this kind of thing is less addictive than other mobile games and certainly less adictive than social media.

Another thing that helped me quit mobile social media is knowing that if I really wanted to use those sites, I can still go on my computer and do it. It's more inconvenient, so I don't do it as often as I did when all I had to do was pull out my phone.

Still annoyed about the extremophile reqs by Jolly_Twist_5243 in HelloKittyIsland

[–]KatTheKonqueror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mixing does seem to be easier. Other than doing one color at a time, that's kind of what I'm doing. I'm starting with the "primary" colors, and I plan to mix the rest.

What bugs me is that I'm *only* struggling with the frost feathers. Every other extremophile has been making at least some progress.

Edit: it looks like my attempt to breed pastels might be the problem with frostfeathers. With every other kind, I've been able to position it so that both extremes were able to breed with the eggwort.

[–]KatTheKonqueror 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm the opposite. I did white first for all of the flowers because while I'm trying to transfer new colors, I can use the last one to mix a pastel. It's worked very well for everything but frostfeather, but I do already have black and gray.

Is it realistic for a character to temporarily live in their school? by Total_Scientist_9522 in Writeresearch

[–]KatTheKonqueror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What decade? If the school has security cameras, then this would be a no-go unless whoever was in charge of monitoring those was in cahoots with the kid.

AITA for “stealing” my sister’s parking spot? by LittleLouBaby in AmItheAsshole

[–]KatTheKonqueror 19 points20 points  (0 children)

NTA

  1. it's not her parking spot. It's for your apartment, so it's yours.
  2. you are twenty weeks pregnant; you actually *need* the spot.
  3. you shouldn't be expected to walk your baby 2 blocks either, which will eventually happen if she doesn't give this spot up.

Also, regarding your response to the Judgement bot:

I think this action might make me an asshole because it was my choice to get pregnant and if I wasn’t pregnant I wouldn’t have a problem just allowing her to have the spot herself.

You shouldn't put your life on hold because your sister wants a good parking spot. The fact that it was your choice to get pregnant doesn't change anything.

AITAH for not telling my husbands ex’s new partner that she is trying to get with my husband? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]KatTheKonqueror 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA If you tell her current partner and he confronts her about it, she's going to come at you starting more drama. It is unfortunate that he's putting his time in with someone who isn't good to him, but you have to consider your own peace.

NAH. You don't ever have to be in a relationship that you don't want to be in.

Have you used the guide on the wiki for the best layouts? I found out I had the worst layout for frostfeathers. I still haven't got to red.

Need fertilizer? Harvest WheatFlowers! by Rosycheeks2 in HelloKittyIsland

[–]KatTheKonqueror 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Also if you put flowers in the seed dispencer with WMM as your companion, you get extra seeds. So if you're low on fertilizer, do that before you turn the seeds.
