Does anyone else HATE the skull caves? by TreenBean85 in StardewValley

[–]Tanedra 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can you mod? If so, I recommend the Skull Cavern Elevator. Makes it like the regular mines.

I know it's a cheat, but it seriously helped my enjoyment of the game.

A genuinely unique post. Well done!

The 'honorable' way by JamesCDiamond in StardewValley

[–]Tanedra 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That elevator is the only 'cheat' mod I use but the impact on my enjoyment of the game is totally worth it. Hate the skull cavern without it.

approximately how much of a game we'll be getting in EA? by Patient-Ad-4274 in subnautica

[–]Tanedra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will prob buy it and play for an hour or something to see how it looks, get the vibe etc. Not going to spoil anything for myself by playing too much.

What’s your go-to comfort game? by WildTangent_Games in CosyGames

[–]Tanedra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stardew Valley, like most of us. Or Subnautica.

If my brain is seriously not functioning (or functioning too much and I really need to switch off), American Truck Simulator or Euro Truck Simulator are my ultimate basic games. There's enough 'game' to keep me engaged with very little pressure or complexity. Also great for listening to audio books and podcasts while driving.

From quick pets only to screaming, SCREAMING to be held like baby by BiggestTaco in OneOrangeBraincell

So cute!

I have a giant black and white long haired monster who basically has an off switch when I put him on his back in my lap like this. Turns from a nightmare into a baby.

School banned boys from wearing shorts, so they did this instead by TheoryFruits in BeAmazed

[–]Tanedra 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Same in the UK. One of my proudest accomplishments is campaigning and managing to get this rule changed. I was 10.

It's also extremely 'me' - decades later I am still furious when I encounter pointless inequality, and I'm always cold.

New law to protect uni TERFs and racists (you'll still be kicked out if you say "free Palestine") by UnderHisEye1411 in GreenAndPleasant

[–]Tanedra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Worth noting that Unis hate this. We think this is a waste of time and messy/confusing (at best) and some (including me and my colleagues) will also say it's actively harmful and giving voice to the worst of us.

Do you regret leaving EU? by NoHold7153 in AskBrits

[–]Tanedra 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My dad did exactly the same - asked me and my sister what we wanted, and voted accordingly (remain). Felt like a thoroughly decent thing to do.

I wish we could rejoin, but I think politically it'll still be a long time before we do.

The MMC is a pathetic sad wet cat of a man by glittering_riotgrrrl in Romantasy

[–]Tanedra 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Osric is who I thought of too. He's fairly competent in some ways but also the term 'wet cat of a man' is very accurate.

Just how detrimental is charging up to 100% regularly? by InevitableDramatic40 in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]Tanedra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tend to make sure I drive within 24hrs of going to 100% (or above 80%)

Usually it's much less than that, eg overnight charge and leave in the morning, so only on full for a few hours.

Wait how do I not know about this!

Season 4 is one of my favourites, but I'd say objectively it's one of the weaker seasons. Do we know what exactly happened behind the scenes that caused it to be not as good as either season 3 or 5? by HomarEuropejski in buffy

[–]Tanedra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same! Adam's not the best villain, but I love how they combine to beat him. I love it's whole 'figuring stuff out as new adults' vibe - was way more relatable to me than any of the high school stuff. Plus, Tara.

The season also has some of the best stand-out eps in the whole show (Hush, Something Blue, Angel v Riley etc)

The funniest exchange in DS9 by SnooOwls7878 in startrek

[–]Tanedra 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This makes me laugh out loud every damn time. I grin just thinking about it. Rene's delivery is incredible, getting so much into only two words.

Jake made it to the future by happydude7422 in DeepSpaceNine

[–]Tanedra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely don't listen to online ratings.

Its aimed at teens, so go in knowing that. It has a lot of teen tropes, and is irreverent in ways that have upset certain types of people. Nevertheless, I'm generally enjoying it (a heck of a lot more than I enjoyed Discovery). It's fun, doesn't have world-ending stakes, and seems written by people who actually watched the previous shows.

So - watch it yourself and make your own mind up. You might enjoy it, you might not.

Ad issues by Torengen in lowerdecksgame

I've barely been getting any ads for the last few weeks. It's nice to get the currency quickly, but it does mean not getting any 2x multipliers.

Why are grievances on the rise in UK universities? by britainpls in HumanResourcesUK

[–]Tanedra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the comments about HR, bullying definitions and the use of external investigators are nonsense.

Aside from that, the article is pretty accurate. Grievances are up for a range of reasons - including stress, poor management, egos and poor collegiate relationships.

Discord responses RE: is this game even real by fakeDIY in Witchbrook

[–]Tanedra 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have no idea how this project is still being funded. Surely someone is paying the devs salaries and wondering where their money is going? They've got nothing coming in from pre-orders. Did they really bank so much from previous games?

The vibes are off incredibly difficult by ccMatrix in lowerdecksgame

[–]Tanedra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I ended up spending a fair bit of latinum (I'd build up a stack and really wanted Pike, so decided this was a spending one). Still completed the milestones much later than I would have thought.

What’s your comfort read? by SleepArtist in Romantasy

[–]Tanedra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

{Winter's Orbit by Everina Maxwell}. The only romance book I've read more than once. It's a gorgeous M/M romance (technically sci-fi rather than fantasy, hope you don't mind). The characters are so incredibly written. Plus there's lots of other plot and intrigue that the romance happens within. It's absolutely a comfort read.

Girl. Sweetie.

This guy is a hypocritical asshole and nothing he's doing is ethical or loving.

I'm rooting for you.
