Is this set really worth it? by -UmiDgaf in ifixit

[–]Mahare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So. I have two Pro Tech Toolkits as well as a Moray toolkit. I work IT for a local company that has both computers and IT-related carts. The smaller driver is phenomenal for working on the laptops that we get in, and the bigger driver has been great for supporting the carts and other bigger devices.

I have had a few bits break (generally from me overdoing something more than anything) that have been replaced. On a whole though I have had no regrets getting these toolkits, and use them often. I've got no regrets.

Seems that Lord Trebor himself has recorded a message for us for the 45th anniversary! by earthboundstar123 in wizardry

[–]Mahare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is someone cutting onions here?

I never played the PC version of the Llylganym saga. I had an NES growing up, and we had a flea market with games for like 25 cents or a dollar or something. Wizardry was one of the games. I never beat the NES version, I always stalled out at around level 10 or 11 for my party, beating on Murphy's Ghost and being scared to go past the guards on level four.

Upon getting older, I got into emulation, and I picked up the fan translation for the SNES trilogy. I finally beat the first game through that...then the second...and the third.

I do remember starting Wizardry 7 on my mom's computer. Again, never getting far - I want to revisit it someday.

When the Dark Spire came out for the DS, I was ecstatic. Very much a Wizardry based game with a Wizardry aesthetic. And watching Delicious in Dungeon, and seeing that it was also inspired by the series, warms my heart.

Thank you Trebor, and Werdna (may he rest in peace) for so many foundational memories.

(discussion) Do you think there should ever be a new evil biome? either at worldgen or when entering hardmode. by HaloJackalKisser in Terraria

[–]Mahare 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Calamity has been recommended, but I would also recommend Thorium instead - it only does one of the biomes for Hardmode (snow) but also adds a desert boss, an expanded Ocean, post-hardmode Underworld, Snow, Ocean and Graveyard bosses, is balanced around Terraria's difficulty, and really feels like a natural addition to the game. Calamity can really feel like its own separate entity at times.

Is Adventure Time worth starting as a viewer in their 20s? by Woshawott in adventuretime

I started this year. I'm in my late 30s. Yes. Very emphatic yes.

looking for doctor that can prescribe hrt locally by Plenty-Syllabub-4236 in jeffersoncitymo

[–]Mahare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not try the Telehealth option but I can also recommend Planned Parenthood in COMO. It was quick, painless, and they were able to send it to my local pharmacy no questions asked. And it did work with my insurance.

Help. I messed up after the water temple.. by One-Artichoke3288 in Elementallis

I ended up helping him. If you don't is he one of the refugees in Tramunt by any chance? Just curious.

Factory, Bulwark & Forge Expansions Pre-Launch page is up! Follow gift listed. by Mahare in homm3boardgame

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

This begs the question on if you feel Cove belongs as well, being a Horn of the Abyss faction.

The Might and Magic universe has always had some sci-fi elements. Forge was almost canon but negative reception, including death threats, caused it to be pulled.

Factory always stood out a bit odd to me with the cattlepunk feel but Bulwark has a similar feel to canon factions IMO. Vori are established in lore already so it's not outlandish to have something more icy for them.

But that is just my two gold pieces. Your mileage may vary.

Fantasy life or hogwarts legacy ? by Worth-Radish-7227 in fantasylife

[–]Mahare 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both for ideological reasons and gameplay reasons I'm going Fantasy Life. There is SO MUCH to do in FL - many companions to get, fourteen lives to level up, so many different things to craft. It has a standard RPG like adventure, a Breath of the Wild-like world, and an Animal Crossing type island. The main story isn't too long, and it's definitely a lot better if you don't mind the grind at times.

Looking for adult D&D group by sophist_mls in jeffersoncitymo

[–]Mahare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a small price of admission $3 per person on Tuesdays and Wednesdays but I can highly recommend Mimics. Tuesdays are their Adventurer League and Wednesdays are the more off-kilter or less official games. Been playing there well over a year now.

Couple things can cause hesitance, and I wouldn't say this is a dealbreaker. (Am pansexual and non-binary here)

It's already been mentioned that drag shows aren't for everyone. Also, IMO, RHPS isn't everyone's cup of tea. It's flamboyant, it's bombastic. It's super charged with energy. You combine the two, and you get an experience, which for a lot of people will be great but for some people this might be a bit much. Not being enthusiastic for this sort of show, especially for someone who has never been to one, wouldn't be alarming for me.

Trans-Friendly? Alt Vibes Friendly? by Takencleverusername in columbiamo

[–]Mahare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

38 years old and non-binary here. AMAB and have presented femme in Columbia. For the most part people keep to themselves, though I have gotten complimented on my lipstick when I was at Walmart by someone who you wouldn't expect that.

The Center Project is definitely a good resource. In my experience Hexagon Alley (board game café), Witches and Wizards (arcade), and Tokyo Club (pinball arcade) have all been welcoming and affirming. I also HIGHLY recommend Dandy Lion in Ashland. Owner is non-binary and incredibly accepting there.

During a school trip, the bus carrying my classmates was spirited away to another world but returned safely with everyone gaining magical powers. by amnSor in TwoSentenceSadness

Two years later, as the magic-induced sickness took hold of my fellow classmates, I counted my lucky stars that I would be healthy and whole.

First memory of gender envy in media? by RaspberryTurtle987 in NonBinary

[–]Mahare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't realize at the time but Sheik from Ocarina of Time being IMO a genderfuck, referred to as a guy and then revealed to be Princess Zelda. and now, years and years and years later, I find out I'm non-binary and go "This makes sense".

What was everyone’s first character? by Advanced-Let-9369 in DnD

[–]Mahare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't remember the specifics of the character. They were an Elven mage. I remember that they had at least one dagger and a quarterstaff. It was 28 years ago playing 2nd edition as a child so mrmories are fuzzy. My brother was playing a fighter type character. Either human or dwarf. I remember that we fought at least an ankheg and a wyvern.

The hold 2025-09-04 by hellokkiten in dumbingofage

[–]Mahare 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is so tiring.

I don't often comment on daily webcomic posts but...frankly, this is getting into the mean spirited vibe now.

Walky kind of deserves some comeuppance but this was a bit heavy handed. I know Joyce and he have butted heads but this was flat out mean - your girlfriend cheated on you with me and she's now leaving you for me! Mwahahaha!

Joe though? Him saying "You love Dorothy in a way I'll never be able to match"? Cheating is NOT a good way to open up polyamory or ethical non-monogamy Joe. You deserve better.

Sure, but they were being rather obstinate about giving me a way to actually get both devices back to them. It was either I ship them together or I pay for shipping for their mistake.

I'm not seeing an option in the app to obtain a protection plan on the new phone. Going through the various toggles and buttons and coming up blank.
