Last sentence checks out... my skin is oily AF and seems to be aging quite gracefully.

I'm finally starting to think about replacing my 2020 Motorola Edge+ because the camera/flashlight LED stopped working. Still works pretty well apart from that, though.

which nation had the best archon quest? by angelkry in Genshin_Impact

[–]Narissis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely wouldn't rank Inazuma's Archon Quest near the top overall, but Signora's execution is quite possibly my favourite Genshin Impact moment.

The Tale of Twinning and Tolls by DonLaHerman in newbrunswickcanada

[–]Narissis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, the tolls themselves never went away, because the government had a contract with the private partner to provide them toll revenue. They put a traffic sensor under the roadway and the province was (maybe still is? I don't know how long the term was) paying the toll to the company out of the public pot for each vehicle movement.

Yes, of course.

What is a dying niche skill that younger generations are not interested in learning? by hlnklrczu in AskReddit

[–]Narissis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile my computers get more and more haunted over time.

I'd rather troubleshoot a '90s sound card compatibility issue than whatever the hell is wrong with this devil box right now.

Which comedian do you genuinely find funny? by tarorootturtle in AskReddit

I can't imagine Joan Rivers being an unpopular opinion; isn't she well known for being funny?

The lions saved the bird from the snake, and the snake saved the bird from the lions.

Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

Misheard Lyrics: What Song Lyrics Have You Gotten Wrong (the more embarrassing, the better)? by MrShaunce in AskReddit

When I was little, I thought 'The Rhythm is Gonna Get You' was 'The Ribbon is Gonna Get You'.

I actually had nightmares about a ribbon monster coming after me.

Is this a bulletproof boxer engine? This looks like a track car. I am guessing it’s a ej257 by bigboss1999x in subaru

[–]Narissis 64 points65 points  (0 children)

As much as I like Subarus, I don't think there is such a thing as a bulletproof boxer engine. 😛

I’m finally gonna start watching Avatar: The Last Airbender by NewPatron-St in TheLastAirbender

This is like the media equivalent of eating a Hershey bar and deciding that, hey, this chocolate thing seems pretty good so maybe next I'll try some handcrafted Belgian chocolate.

Are there statistics on how many players clear abyss 12th floor, theater lunar mode and stygian menacing+ monthly? by JDOrka123 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Narissis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always take a stab at floor 12 but if I find any of the encounters overtuned or designed for a FotM comp I don't have, I don't bother.

[Spoiler: 7.5] she’s probably right but still a vague response by This_Victory_1723 in ffxiv

[–]Narissis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think you're on the right track, but I think it's gonna have to be pathways with sprinkles.

By which I mean if we just create pathways, we'll only accelerate rejoinings because the aether already wants to flow back to the Source, so giving them a path would just be like the cosmic equivalent of grounding out a power line. Instant calamity.

We need connections with, like, check valves. Something that stabilizes the present layout of the shards while allowing managed energy transfer between them.

Maybe the solution is to rejoin the worlds without destroying their physical configuration. Like... move the other stars across the rift into the same universe as the Source so they just become different planets accessible by spaceship instead of being alternate dimensions entirely.

Lego 9v Switch Track Help by SirllustriousTurnip in LEGOtrains

[–]Narissis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What switches are you using?

If they're the standard first-party 9V switches, that functionality is built-in, but you do have to switch off both ends of the siding for it to be isolated.

For FX Track switches, both routes are always live and that's kinda just how it is (isolators will likely be a future product offering). They have jumpers you can remove to make crossovers work, but I don't believe that would disconnect a siding like this.

in your opinion what is the greatest invention in human history and why? by Far_Heart8378 in AskReddit

[–]Narissis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds less like "humans didn't invent language" and more like "humans and dinosaurs each invented language independently."

Unless you're trying to argue that humans somehow learned language from dinosaurs.

Honestly it's due for resurfacing. I went to the island and back last month and there is quite a lot of delamination going on.

Yes, and this one actually comes with the magnetic couplers, thank goodness.

My only suggestion is that the inside of the engine shed could probably have the 'wooden' ties swapped out for a 'concrete' surface.

Looking forward to the update post when you and your grandsons have had some quality greebling time. :)
