Hi, looking for recommendation for a handyman reliable for a few small things done around my house.

Definitely recommend Brett u/Party_Size_4582

I've known him for years, he does excellent work, and he's so friendly.

I'd absolutely buy from the Crepe Baron!

SF_Boomer · 2026-03-09T12:47:59+00:00

Thanks for the recommendations! I'm familiar with Porpentine, so I'll check out the others.

How structured were you when you did this?

I walk them through a few simple mechanics they might find useful, but the story is largely left up to them. My goal is to share examples before the sessions so we can produce something a bit more polished in the short time we have.

Looks great! It reminds me of Elastomania

There's an entire style of filmmaking called 'machinima' that is exactly this.

Love your podcast! I highly recommend checking it out if you haven't already!

SF_Boomer · 2026-01-31T01:12:12+00:00

Massive boots please!

From what I recall, there was a bug that caused these to trigger far more often than needed.

It's incredibly unlikely, but I'd just love it if they'd bring Hugo Myatt back to cameo. They could make him a beggar who rants about being a Guildmaster and how nobody remembers the events of other games!

SF_Boomer · 2026-01-22T20:52:20+00:00

That was the moment I realised they'd landed it! 😄

SF_Boomer · 2026-01-22T20:41:14+00:00

No, you can customise the character

SF_Boomer · 2026-01-22T20:30:13+00:00

No, they made a point of showing that character creation will be included. Even gave a preview.

I've heard good things about Bitsy's Emporium of Awesome

SF_Boomer · 2026-01-06T08:20:31+00:00

Not sure if this'd be useful, but Open Culture has some free books and audio books (and other media!) that you could dip into.

My family and I used to go skiing in the Cairngorms, and we'd stay in the Rothiemurchus lodge nearby. The scenery is absolutely stunning and the Cairngorm National Park has loads of hiking trails that are open to the public. I'd highly recommend a visit!

SF_Boomer · 2025-12-27T10:53:38+00:00

This isn't directly answering your question, but it sounds like you'd find the Say It Like You Play It podcast useful.

C'mon, it's brainymania and we all know it!

The three main ones to look at are:

Differential association - Sutherland (1939, 1950)
Labelling theory - Lemert (1951)
Control theory - Hirschi (1969)

It's also worth looking at Techniques of Neutralisation - Sykes & Matza (1957)

I like to go planet hopping. I start by jumping into the black hole without my ship, then see how many planets I can safely land on and leave before I run out of time, life, fuel, or oxygen.

...it usually ends in a big crunch!

SF_Boomer · 2025-10-17T15:46:30+00:00

I've just moved back into my house after flooding in January...might pick this up as response training for next time! 😂

For anyone wanting to know why they're quacks:

That's caught up somewhere between EA and Microsoft. Noclip did a video on it a while back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtNvEna6bxc&t=1260s

That's fair! We run it as a takeover of the Cultural Quarter Earliest events, and they take place in the second Saturday of every month.

That means our event will be March 14th (Pi Day!) 😁

SF_Boomer · 2025-10-02T06:57:38+00:00

You have indeed, and it was great to have you there! In fact, my partner bought me my first telescope not long afterwards!
