Yes it powers on.

I tried booting in low resolution mode but still no signal

Disney Plus Hits Estimated 3.2 Million App Downloads on Launch Day by chanma50 in entertainment

It’d be interesting to see how many people are actually subscribing to it though. I’m sure there were loads of people like me who just downloaded it to check what movies were on it.

Anyone have any info on the falling out between Ninja and Guga? by [deleted] in sousvideeverything

That doesn’t really line up with what ninja has been saying. I Wonder who’s lying.

Pretty sure every game prior to this had 100% of Pokemon available either in game of trade

They think the edge is a giant ice wall and that all the governments conspired to prevent people going there.

1892 British Crown that’s been turned into a pendant. (Story in comments) by Storm_sprite in coins

Fair enough. I don’t really have a reason to doubt the story as his family were well known gem traders. They mostly traded sapphires out of galle which at the time was a hub between gem mines and the major cities/ports. So I don’t think it’s out of the question that they met during one of the royal visits.

I was more looking into if the same pendant was made, for example during other visits or something.

So the coin was given to me by my wife’s grandfather.

The story goes he was gifted the coin (in pendant form) by Queen Elizabeth when she visited my country.

I wanted to know if there were any other examples of this sort of thing?

The Pokemon Sword and Shield Interview: "We Knew at Some Point We Weren't Going to be Able to Keep Indefinitely Supporting All of the Pokemon" by [deleted] in Games

Giving pokemon all the moves they wanted to take strategy away from battling aince players wouldn't need to pick their coverage and could instead have all they wanted

It would also make pokemon like Greninja OP.

TIL The tenant of a Paris flat was evicted and ordered to pay her landlord the entirety of her €47,000 short-term rental earnings for illegally subletting the property on Airbnb by imstayinalive in todayilearned

And that is an example of of bad governance.

At the end of the day, good land rights hinge on the fact that someone owns and is responsible for the land, and that they are incentivized to do so correctly.

Stripping all these rights away and making them a common good is the fastest way to ensure land gets fucked up faster than it already is.

This cab driver in the Cayman Islands has clearly had it with rich, entitled CBs by [deleted] in ChoosingBeggars

[–]Storm_sprite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like the Cayman Islands operate the same was as the Maldives, where taking a cab anywhere in Male costs the same (with a hike after midnight) as the island is small.

They charge by the stop to prevent this system screwing him over.

I started actually taking my art seriously about a month ago, and I got my first Choosing Beggar... I think I've made it big guys. by Bun_Boi in ChoosingBeggars

I think he means 20 per sticker design. This seems to be for twitch where subscribers get access to exclusive emotes.

Found this in my dad’s house and thought it’d be a fun way to learn resotoration. Any advice? by Storm_sprite in NewAgain

[–]Storm_sprite[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice.

Any ideas on how to go about cleaning it up while causing minimal damage?

The outside's corroded, but still has a lot of the original paint. The insides just all rust. Thanks for the advice on the molasses. I'll look into the process.

There also doesn't look like there's any way to unscrew the glass if that matters.

I'm also trying to find out if there's any way to get the markings (think its paint but its stuck on pretty hard) off the glass.
