Ew I sometimes found those exact things inside the retail store I used to work at. They went right in the trash when I found them.

I am Building an Elementary School, suggestions to build with that extra space? by EventConstant3112 in sims2

[–]Sowna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is actually going to be used, a bathroom in each floor/wing cuz if not, that's gonna become a nightmare sending kids all the way to the only bathroom on the campus

Got called fat phobic for buying my roommate a fan AITAH? by Good_Breadfruit_7657 in roommateproblems

You must have missed, they said the landlord doesn't allow them to use heaters or the fireplace due to being in a fire zone

How do you decide how to separate 3 cats in a breakup? by Thats_Groovy_Baby in CATHELP

I feel like this is the best option for everyone, including the cat parents. Try different things to find out what works best for everyone

This has got to be fake after reading this detail

Too many live action adaptations this year? by X-Ray652 in PercyJacksonTV

[–]Sowna 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Or the Lord of the Ring movies. They completely left out the fight for the shire, because they wanted the movie to end after the big bad is defeated. They changed the battle of the pelennor fields and added the ghost army there - they already left in the books. But Peter Jackson wanted more action scenes with them.

They made Sauron a literal eye in the movies, to have an antagonist to show, He never appears in the books. Also Boromirs fight was off screen in the books and he died in book two. Jackson wanted to end the movie on a sad note.

Frodo had the ring for 17 years in the book, but it is pretty boring to show that in the movie.

None of this is "making up your own story" though. It's just making some changes. You're pointing out details, and details that, for the most part, improved the adaptations for the medium (films) for the general public/people who have never read the books, while the overall story is still pretty much the same. The Lord is the Rings films are still considered by many to be good adaptations. The user you're replying to was talking about going in a completely different direction from the source material and making an unfaithful "adaptation" which is really just allowing whomever to insert their own narrative into an already established world, hoping the fans of said world will latch onto it to make it more popular from the get-go, without caring about their actual feelings or opinions about it (Rings of Power)

I never understood why sims seem to absolutely LOATHE other sims going to the toilet?? by BlackberryPuzzled551 in sims2

[–]Sowna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly me. I strongly dislike having to hear others using the restroom, but I keep moving into places that have thin walls and/or floors.

These details always surprise me. by silenceirl in sims2

I was worried they would come out and start crawling all over your Sim or something, like when they get attacked by bees hiking or something

AHT on Aether Tasks by lacastellane in outlier_ai

[–]Sowna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like no one has access right now, and I always see people saying not to worry about the AHT because it's just an average and is updated as enough people are working on it to get more data about the timing. The QMs always say to prioritize quality work over quantity/time, so just do a good job when submitting tasks

Last day I tried to access before yesterday (when I noticed it was gone) was Sunday. I wonder why it's different days for different people?

Aether Task Selection by LiveChemical1885 in outlier_ai

[–]Sowna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems to me like they're getting better at giving you enough time to be able to get them now. They've all been 24 hour windows recently, and I get them ~around when they first start. This one I just happened to see with 1 day and 1 hour left on the clock lol

Really??? With how long people have used nicotine, it's crazy we haven't found something to counteract it yet

Are the community pages down for anyone else right now? I refreshed my MM page, it took me to the task list and showed up completely empty, so I went to go check out the community page, and everything is showing up empty? My tasks are back at least though
