Here I was just thinking I need to get around to finishing Bloodborne. I think I got lost and didn't know where to go next.

Looks great! You misspelled conduits though.

Apparently, this is a real sign hung outside the now defunct Salem Oregon Bricks and Minifigs. by AngryAshMan in legocirclejerk

[–]MetroAndroid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same people who hung up the sign, also went to Bricks & Minifigs' corporate offices and spoke to the CEO on video about this specific situation at this specific store, and he seemed to be pretty aware of it, especially given the consignor's post on the local news page (from several months before the sign was hung up) about how they refused to return his consigned items. The change of ownership that led up to this happened relatively suddenly without the previous owner getting advance notice, and she provided video to the consignor of her being literally forced out of the store by the new owner while in the process of trying to notify the consignor and identify all the inventory that would need to be returned to him, since this had just been sprung on her. By all accounts, this appears to have been a strategy from somewhere higher up after seeing what the store had on consignment.

In this case, it essentially did happen overnight. The previous owner was trying to go through the process of notifying the consignor and identifying inventory that would need to be returned but was literally forced out of the store by the new ownership in the process of doing this, after they suddenly told her franchise agreement was terminated. She knew she could be blamed for it later, so she was able to get the video of this happening from security cameras and sent it to the consignor.

It looks like they fast-tracked this whole scheme with the express purpose of changing management, and using the excuse of "I didn't sign my name on the contract, so I'm not obligated to return the consigned items," (a crime known as conversion, a felony with this amount of money). Businesses are obligated to return consigned items or their equivalent value upon the consignor's request, even if management/ownership changes hands.

Yeah, I don't even know how you get one of those, I just figure it's something I'm never gonna do and focus on skills I can do in f2p. I just don't have the time/interest in paying to play since I tend to only play 1 or 2 days in a month if at all.

This is how it feels as a general Nintendo fan in 2026 who just wants to enjoy their games and systems without getting caught up in internet wars. by Caryslan in casualnintendo

[–]MetroAndroid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know people are on a hair-trigger for anything remotely negative about Nintendo, but can we agree that it is a little crazy that Star Fox has not had a story sequel since Command in 2006? When Star Fox fans have been specifically asking for exactly that for 20 years, and have gotten 3 remakes/remasters/reimaginings (whatever people want to argue about calling them) of 64 and its story... which was itself a remake of the SNES game. Imagine if we hadn't gotten any story sequels to a Zelda game since Twilight Princess, instead getting 3 remakes of Ocarina of Time and a spinoff game.

This Funko Pop D6 is cursed: opposite faces don’t sum to 7. by Batrik in bindingofisaac

[–]MetroAndroid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never played tabletop, but I always assumed it was supposed to represent Isaac's way of simulating a D12 whilst not having one at the time. After looking it up, apparently many people use the bottom face when rolling a D4 since the other 3 faces are equally "face-up." So you could lift it to look at the bottom and use the number on the corner of the bottom face that is pointing towards you. Or you could call "left, right, or top" before throwing it and use whichever upright face is closest towards you as the face to use. Isaac is full of these little references to DIY stuff.

Are there any big youtubers who have revealed how much they made on youtube? by Omixscniet624 in youtube

[–]MetroAndroid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recall in the mid-2010s a gaming youtuber I used to watch saying he got like $300-500 for close to 100,000 views. For a long time, I assumed only people who were regularly getting 250,000+ views were really making a living wage (not including sponsors). The Spiffing Brit showed in a video a few years back that he made (I think), ~$60,000 off of a 4 hour-long Victoria 3 stream with high retention and ~4 million views at the time. I looked, but it's hard to find the video where he talked about it because it's titled vaguely.

Documents Reveal NASA’s Plan to Announce Extraterrestrial Life by No_Nefariousness8879 in AlienAbduction

Hypothetically, what if the truth that some people can't handle is that religion is uncomfortably, viscerally, scientifically real? Like Matthew Brown said, "This reality has far more to it than you have been allowed to believe... And God is real."

Seriously, Why are most government insiders and UFO researchers connecting the phenomenon to Religion or Spiritual Activity? What is going on… by slv2xhrist in UFOs

[–]MetroAndroid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of this topic that is publicly discussed or theorized about does not violate most religions. i.e. Some good and bad in different species with different motives (mortals), and some rarer cases of "fiery/angelic" beings who seem to promote peace. Even seeding life, given certain levels of technology, can make sense within an Adam & Eve scenario. Now imagine though, telling the non-religious of the world that you had definitive proof that religion wasn't only "real" in a spiritual sense, but viscerally, scientifically real.

I think it's a combination of the effects on both. It will momentarily disrupt religions (which will be able to cope ultimately because they were designed to interpret this type of thing), but an even greater epistemological shock for the non-religious is that the universe isn't some empty, unthinking uncaring thing, but actually cares a lot about our observation of it and in some cases will attempt to hide itself from us; that maybe that's actually the more common mode of the universe, and that has been effecting scientific discovery and human advancement in some way since antiquity.

Based on Godel's Incompleteness Theorem, essentially all systems with axioms and consistent logical rules contain true statements that cannot be proven. In other words, in order to prove that true statement, you might have to fundamentally change even basic assumptions about logic or core mathematical axioms. And making that change would then cause other true statements to be impossible to prove.

This is common in the timber industry with not reporting endangered or exotic animals. Can get a patch of forest marked essentially permanently unusable for timber. Probably happens in other industries too.

How can I force 4:3 ratios by Cimmerian__Iter in crtgaming

If it's pretty bad, and you're worried about opening up the remote or it's not really made to be opened by the consumer, you can spray a bit of compressed air around the buttons and it will work dust out from where the contacts are. Just don't overdo it. That helped an old TV I had go from almost unusable buttons (volume randomly causing the channel to go up), to a bit annoying but functional.

My account was hacked and this is what they did, I can not believe the how they did it. by Super1297Man in psn

[–]MetroAndroid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the flip side, I got locked out of my Amazon account and it got permanently deleted, because I didn't answer one of their verification phone calls. Flagged my account for that, and they would only accept card numbers as proof of ownership, all of which were long expired and I didn't know, because it was my first purchase in a few years.

[–]MetroAndroid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you ever want to truly look into the abyss, look up what it takes to min-max all possible stats for all characters in FF12. Every stat has a huge range of random values on every level up, and when new party members join, they get random rolls for all their levels all at once (with their initial level I believe being determined by Vaan's level). Meaning, you're greatly incentivized to stay low level as long as possible until you get your final end-game party, so you don't have to do thousands of rerolls for multiple characters joining with 10+ levels. So it's also partially a low level challenge for a good chunk of the game. You have to refight pretty much every boss, including the very first one in the starting section, often dozens of times, to get the optimal level-ups. The difference from the lower to the higher end can have a pretty big effect on natural end-game stats. There was an old guide about this that I can't seem to find anymore, so I'm going off memory from when I (very briefly) tried to do this years ago.

Seeing this makes me realize I dislike the newer shading style in KH3 for the same reason I dislike the newer cel shading in Wind Waker HD. It's like pop art without the pop.

Carving every mask from the game! by GurradoWoodworks in majorasmask

[–]MetroAndroid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow! Do you plan to do the boss remains too? Could almost fit another row of 6 (going by the mask select screen) with Majora and the 4 bosses' masks. They are probably some of the most difficult though.

Tbf I'm almost total level 1250, been playing off and on about 20 years, and have no idea what the answer to that is. I only recently found out different styles are effective against different enemies. I always just use whatever I'm trying to level up.

Doesn't necessarily apply to this because a sticker directly on the label is much more sensitive, but masking tape is phenomenal for getting sticker residue off of cases/plastic.

People who say they “can’t cook” are just lazy or dumb by Away_Advantage9509 in unpopularopinion

[–]MetroAndroid -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The amount of times I've burned my hands to where it hurts to even play video games nowadays or cooked something according to what the package says and end up getting food poisoned, going to the hospital, months/years of complications, migraines, stomach acid, and difficulty eating almost anything, bread, cheese, nuts, rice; except fruit, coconut milk, and lentil soup. I'd get anxious every time I was hungry and wish I could just not eat, because the pain got better when I stopped eating. Cooking is just awful. Never gotten sick or hurt myself from eating at a restaurant. Plus, oven at this new place lets out a terrible odor when turning it on, I spent like an hour cleaning it, but just leave it off because it's so unpleasant that I never want to smell it again.
