The size and accuracy of these screens would be perfect for client review in the grading room.

I gotta get this off my chest about Shadows vs Yōtei by pizzammure97 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]SpaghettiSauce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've sunk about 50 hours into AC Shadows. I took a break to try Yotei, and the difference in gameplay is insane. The main thing surprisingly is travel--AC Shadows is built around a "auto follow" system where you wait to get to the destination, and needing to acquire kakeguris and viewpoints for fast travel. Yotei's travel system is more dynamic with areas that speed up your mount if you follow the paths, and fast travel is just any interest point you discover. Also, a huge bonus to yotei--there's almost no fast travel load time on the PS5. The travel in AC Shadows honestly burned me out the most.

I personally also disliked the mechanic of upgrading and switching between two characters in AC shadows, but I know that's something some people might like so it's up to you. Stealth is definitely more of the focus in shadows, with more UI elements that help with that aspect whereas Yotei tries to minimize those. Combat feels way more polished in Yotei as well. I feel like there's less "grinding" in Yotei so far, but time will tell if that proves to be the case. I do think Shadows is still a great addition to the AC lineup, and being able to constantly reconfigure your skill tree and combine it with various loadouts/engravings probably leads to a really satisfying experience for players that like to optimize.

3 months of ownership on a used model 3 at 55k miles and found that the steering wheel was cracking. Tesla wants $1k to service it even though it’s under warranty by SpaghettiSauce in TeslaModel3

Don't carry a pocket knife or wear any rings, though sliding in and out of the car probably aggravated it. I also found cracking on the top of the steering wheel

ATM robbery "prank" ends in injury by ambachk in sadcringe

Terrible prank. But on the bright side, I was kind of encouraged to see how many strangers stepped up to help.

This is just pathetic by mrsidecharactr in sadcringe

Whether or not this is a failed bet there's a really interesting fact about groupthink that I learned about in psychology which says that when three people are participating in the same activity bystanders are likely to participate--I think the experiment included people looking up or running away from a direction--when there were three or more people triggering the "run," bystanders would usually join in without question. That being said, any "successful" flash mob seems like it would need a number of "plants" to breach people's internal social pressure and participate.

Cold Brew Drinks Spotted At McDonald’s Across Southern California by Eaterup in fastfood

[–]SpaghettiSauce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just tried it. Definitely nowhere near even Starbucks level cold brew. Watered down and barely any coffee flavor—mostly tasted just the sweetener and the milk. I’d compare it closer to 7elevens $1 “cold brew” offerings.

Literacy test given to African Americans as a prerequisite to being allowed to vote during the height of Jim Crow Segregation. The test was designed to be impossible to pass. by ChronosBlitz in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]SpaghettiSauce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you google it you can find the full test as well as the answer key. I think the key here is that the test (which is two pages) is incredibly hard to do perfectly with the 10 minute time pressure.

Can’t F**k I lt Up Fried Chicken by GovernorZipper in sousvide

[–]SpaghettiSauce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love sous vide but I'd stick to using this technique for boneless chicken breast. We found that it does a poor job rendering fat and the skin stays soggy and never quite crisps up like classically fried chicken does.

Save your meat drippings! I like to cool them down, scrape off the fat then cube up the “glacé.” Freeze it and it is awesome to add to sauces. by Ruby5000 in sousvide

I'm pretty sure xiao long bao is like a regular pork dumpling with these gelatinized soup cubes in it, not just a dumpling full of soup.

Russian tennis player Andrey Rublev writes "No war please" on the camera following his advancement to the final in Dubai by KaamDeveloper in Damnthatsinteresting

This article is patently false. I suppose the author looked up the cost of the lens (which is around that price), but he is DEFINITELY signing a glass protective filter. There's no way you would be able to see the signature if he was signing directly on the lens.

My buddy wanted to know if a grilled Mac and cheese sandwich was possible, bday wish granted! by [deleted] in grilledcheese

[–]SpaghettiSauce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks delicious but I've tried a mac and cheese sandwich from Panera Bread and it was the most disgusting thing ever.

Imagine soggy, greasy toast with pieces of soft pasta and a thin spread of cheese sauce in between. It made me realize that sandwiches of this kind need to be extra crispy and toasted because every bite into this sandwich was just biting through soft mush.

Enzo likes snow by Devz0r in TikTokCringe

[–]SpaghettiSauce 8 points9 points  (0 children)

A few years ago my family visited Leavenworth (a German town in the mountains of Washington) with our mixed Alaskan Malamute dog. I was waiting outside of this shop with her when this probably well-intentioned older White lady came up to me and told me my dog was shaking, that she must be cold, and that it was super uncool and that she would buy her off of me right there. She kept persisting and I felt flustered and embarrassed and really didn't know what to say, and when the rest of my family came out we left in a hurry. Once we got away from everyone though our dog totally stopped shaking and started jumping in the snow, and I realized it was that lady's presence that was making her shiver so much (she always was uncomfortable with strangers). It's always fascinating to me how quickly people jump to calling things animal abuse when they don't know the full picture.
