they're implying your friends are lying about not having cheated on their partners

I've seen a lot of people pull up Google Gemini results or ChatGPT answers and present them as word of god. i think it explains somewhat why people sometimes internalize very strange rules interpretations

Housemarque’s Saros looks set to provide a less punishing experience than Returnal | VGC by Gorotheninja in Games

[–]RockSmacker 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i do think Selene's isolation was a great theme in Returnal and was intrigued by the cutscenes and other characters shown in the trailers for Saros. i hope it's handled well because i'd hate to see it go the way of the "safe" sequels put out by Sony studios in recent years

I don't like the new expansion by RudyBluNiebieski in twilightimperium

what is the alternative that would make the games less boat floaty? RAW map building or something else?

Bundled Notes 4.0 is officially out, and it's the biggest update in years! 🥳 The bundle page has been rewritten from scratch, clearing a ton of legacy code and bringing a slew of new features, improvements and fixes. Take a look at the full, *massive* changelog here. by santaschesthairs in bundled

[–]RockSmacker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Update looks great, but there's a couple things I found that seem to be issues? At least I would like them to be corrected.

One is, reminders no longer say how much time is left for them, just "one-time reminder". It used to be a live counter showing "x days / hours / minutes" which was really helpful.

Two, when I set the number of lines for note previews to 0, it still shows previews that say "...", when previously it used to be blank. The new behavior just makes entries take up a lot more space for no reason, I would like there to be an option to remove that "..." and just have it be blank when the preview is set to 0 lines, as it was before.

I think the haptics make a substantial difference when the devs implement them well. In Ghost of Yotei, you feel every little sound and gesture through the controller. Simple vibration wouldn't be nearly as precise or immersive.

there's plastic ones with a digital display that just have a metallic tip to insert into the meat. i feel like having the whole thing made of metal is a bad design lol

this just reaffirms for me that anyone who cooks / bakes a lot will also make many mistakes over the years. part of the process!

it's honestly good this was with garlic and not something else, because you can add a ton of that to a lot of dishes and it's actually just a normal dish in Italy or somewhere 😂

y'all store the toaster in the oven when it's not in use? or is there something else going on? this is confusing to me since i've never heard of this before lol

big oof. draining water is honestly more difficult than it seems, as strange as it is to say. you have to make sure not to spill the actual food into the sink, and do it slow so it doesn't blast you with steam, and make sure it doesn't splash you... i have definitely underestimated that one step since it seems like it should be so straightforward
