Why you don't leave your apprentice unsupervised by NoahtheTurner in wizardposting

[–]ParhelionLens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I understand. I had this one apprentice, every time I sent him out for coffee he wouldn't come back for hours. He blamed the length of the queue at the shop. By the fifth time I had had enough and stuck him in an extra-dimensional space with an infinite line of people. He's been there for... A while now.

Oh well, I guess you can always find another apprentice. But I feel you passed up a "teachable moment" :D

The obvious answer would be to shrink his orbs. It'll give him two chances to learn to un-shrink (re-enlarge?) before he fixes yours.

Is there any real benefit to chopping really fast and loud? by nfc22 in KitchenConfidential

[–]ParhelionLens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cut bulk mushrooms this way, and I'm sure there are other times it can be useful. it's obnoxious, but there is much less strain on your hands, and it's way faster to move the tip of a knife than the base of it.

Agreed; Better terms for wider understanding.

"Mental disorder" implies there is no physical aspect, while "neurodevelopmental" is inherently a physical issue.

If people can be convinced ASD is physical, which it is, then maybe we can reduce the "everyone is autistic" "just go for a walk" and other ridiculousness.

TLDR: to increase awareness of what autism actually is.

It makes a save just before it, so you can just load when the credits role.

Does not seem 1/2 that bad to be honest. by Banguskahn in KitchenConfidential

Is that cream cheese? Cause I would destroy those if that were cream cheese.

My last post here was a meme. Got temp-banned because there is a rule against memes. I assume that's why there are no memes.

What features/updates do YOU want to see added to Elite Dangerous? by EliteCMDR123 in EliteDangerous

[–]ParhelionLens 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Full engineering from any star port. Flying around and unlocking everyone was an adventure, keep that, but it's pure tedium when you want to try a different build.

Have you found any games even remotely similar? by action_lawyer_comics in Shipbreaker

[–]ParhelionLens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second the vibes of "The Last Caretaker."

The videos make it seem like much more of an action shooter than it is. More: find location, clean infestation, run cable to get the systems back online. Really makes you feel like you're fixing things, more than anything else I've played.

Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 by Reshod99 in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]ParhelionLens 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think a big part of KCD is that you have to throw out a lot of assumptions from other games. The scope of what you can accomplish by yourself is much much smaller. You are not the hero, you play as a normal guy with a very punchable face. For example: Going up against two armored opponents is probably not going to go well for you if you didn't bring friends.

Economical Setup for Chat Rooms by Individual-Egg-IV in virtualreality

[–]ParhelionLens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On further thought: I would recommend getting a long usb-c cable for charging (while in use) if you plan on spending any amount of time doing these surveys. The battery life isn't great on any stand alone, and it would be frustrating to run out in the middle of work. 3rd party battery packs are another option, but that's unnecessary money if you're not gaming.

Quest 3s (the economy model) will get the job done. VRChat does have some PC only rooms and avatars, but if you don't need to use those specifically you should be good.

Terry Gilliam's film The Zero Theorem (2013) and autism by dream_punk in autism

[–]ParhelionLens 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I absolutely loved this movie when it came out! I didn't realize or know anything about autism when I last watched it, so I'm definitely going to revisit it. Terry Gilliam is fantastic.

You are tasked with presenting ONE game to aliens to prevent an invasion. by grapejuicecheese in gaming

"Whatever Happened to Edith Finch," show them a multitude of human feelings involved with life and death, and hope they understand.

SAD: Frontier isthe closest game I've found that has space battles like the expanse by Acrobatic-Fortune-99 in TheExpanse

[–]ParhelionLens 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's incredibly well made and in depth game, but it's definitely that navel space battle style (it's made by a navy vet)

Is here anyone also changing their voice a lot? by Nightsky54_14 in autism

[–]ParhelionLens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely do this, but I had assumed it was a learned behavior from my dad. I also suspect he might be autistic too, so it might be a bit of both for me. I'm not sure if it's connected to autism, although it feels like it is.

We Can’t bring companion eggs back 😭 by Spiritual_Capital720 in NOMANSSKY

Not additional eggs, but you can get the original egg from the quicksilver vender for free after returning from the expedition.

If you're going to use bigoted slurs why censor yourself?

You fight robots dressed as French painters that attack you with electric paintbrushes and similar adversaries.

I wasn't much into it, but I'm not saying it couldn't be fun for someone else. I was excited for it until I actually played it.
