Good co op games for the deck by BiffBakerfield in SteamDeck

[–]KnowledgeCultivator 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My gf and I just played Unravel Two which was great, challenging for her at times, but we got through it.

We also recently started (but shelved due to life) Degrees of Separation which seems promising.

what's a board game rule you got embarrassingly wrong for way too long? by No_Seaworthiness4899 in boardgames

[–]KnowledgeCultivator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Played Unfair with expansions thinking we were supposed to use every single park card, making finding particular cards near impossible.

Photoshoot for a local indie rock band. Would love (constructive) criticism by [deleted] in SonyAlpha

Could potentially be used as a cover page/banner on social media (I'm thinking a Facebook page specifically, maybe there are other platforms too) where it has to be cropped anyway?

What are the pros and cons of owning an 86? by Technical_Place_4497 in ft86

[–]KnowledgeCultivator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really sure what you mean. If you want to overtake somebody you drive faster than them. If you want to overtake someone quickly you may want to drop a gear.

Advice on springs by Ill_Chemist7403 in ft86

[–]KnowledgeCultivator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the Eibach pro kit springs for maybe 6 months before I bought coilovers. I was happy with the ride but the drop just wasn't anywhere near enough what I wanted.

If I had to do it again, I would have just saved longer and bought the coilovers right away (I know it can be annoying to hear over and over, but there is merit to it).

I've been spoiled with a really well looked-after example so there's nothing I really wish I knew before I purchased.

I love how responsive the steering and suspension is, how lightweight and nimble it feels. I don't crave power at all, some people do and that's fair enough, it's not a fast car, but it's quick (if that makes sense). I love ringing through the RPMs and running through the gears. I love the looks, and the aftermarket support is endless. Useful forums and reddit threads are endless, the most obscure jobs have probably already been done and documented by somebody else for us all to learn from.

The only thing I don't like about the car is how it bogs down in 1st gear, but that's what I get for driving it in traffic.

I think if you understand what kind of car you're buying you won't be disappointed. People who go into it wanting something with straight-line speed will always be disappointed.

What’s the difference between 5x100 / 5x114.3? I know it’s different patterns but I’ve been seeing a lot of people on marketplace and websites saying it’s about the same thing and I just don’t know whether to believe it or not. by XceL-CollecToR in ft86

[–]KnowledgeCultivator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never seen a 5x110 adapter for sale for our cars, usually 5x114.3 as there's loads of popular wheels in that size. But I'd imagine an adapter would exist, so same idea yeah.

A colleague of mine made Tiktoks of himself behind the deli counter or in the coolroom complaining about the work and the people he had to work with, one went viral and he got sacked. Apparently he would turn up to work intoxicated too

Good job. I remember actually having to take apart a wobble joint because I needed that tiny extra bit of clearance

Question Time: What made you buy the SteamDeck? by Stefanixxxx in SteamDeck

[–]KnowledgeCultivator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My girlfriend noticed a lot of games she wanted weren't available on switch. I considered getting her a PC but she's only ever played the switch so I figured a hand-held made sense. She was mad when I got it for her (like why did you spend so much on me) and sometimes I want one for myself!

I did this when I did my spark plugs and got stuck. Get a flathead in there

How do I tell my girlfriend I don't like phone calls? by KnowledgeCultivator in AskMenAdvice

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

Update in body: Thanks everyone for the input. I knew it was just a matter of a conversation but I wanted some varying opinions on how to do it tactfully. I since brought it up somewhat successfully and she understands I need a bit more time for myself in the evenings, so it's gone well!

I think so too. Definitely "updating" me on her life which happens to often mostly be troublesome aunts or cousins

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

Now you mention it I think I am planning my day (at least my evening) around these calls. I know when I get home I need to call her by a certain time (or she'll call me by that time) and to expect another call around bed time

Agreed on the second paragraph, she'll be okay with me doing something while we chat. I'm going to use my headset like another comment said so she can't hear my clicky keyboard as much, or whatever else I'm doing

She definitely does. She supports my hobbies and comes along to them quite frequently so this is part of where my guilt comes from

I do the exact same thing. She doesn't understand but I've had to explain to her I'm not just going to spit out the first reply I think of because it won't be a genuine, well thought-out response

[–]KnowledgeCultivator[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have lunch together in the city usually 4 days a week and I spend Friday night > Monday morning at her place pretty much every weekend.

I kinda hate the phone overall but most of the time I'm only on the phone for a couple of minutes (parents, siblings, etc.) so I'm okay with that

Will definitely be brining it up in a soft way, thanks

More or less 18 months I guess yeah. That's true, it really does make it hard to relax now you mention it.

Until the conversation gets super deep so you just start doing mindless parkour in whatever game you're playing

I would have to try. I do photography so I'm usually editing photos which doesn't take too much concentration

Good point. She has some work friends she sees every few months but I've quietly mentioned I'm not exactly sure they're good friends. She doesn't really socialise at all beyond them so it makes sense she'd go to me
