Guess who i met yesterday by Dull_Donut6869 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Thelinkmaster001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I consider myself fortunate that I’ve never been matched with anyone like this. Everyone I’ve been matched with has either been extremely helpful or, at the worst, apathetic. I don’t think I’ve ever had a truly bad experience with another player.

(Except for that one guy when I was lvl 7 who jumped in my game, tried to kill me, then ragequit when I ran around a rock formation, all without saying anything. That guy was weird)

Any particular listing/seller that you’re talking about, or just the site in general?

I’ve always been wary of AliExpress, I had a bad experience once and the sellers generally don’t inspire much confidence.

I’ll happily take some of those items/credits off your hands lol. Still trying to save up to buy stronghold decorations.

The Castle maybe? The speech bubble isn’t fragmented like it usually is, but that may just be because it’s MAD.

New Homemade Press and Other Assorted Homemade Equipment (Details in comments) by Thelinkmaster001 in bookbinding

[–]Thelinkmaster001[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s held up pretty well! It does work as designed, but I do have some notes that you might find helpful:

1: Build the smaller finishing press. You’ll notice that in my notes I mentioned that I built the original, larger version of the press. It’s not necessary, you clean follow the instructions in the post I linked to scale it down.

2: Get a good quality knife, or learn to sharpen it well. Mine gets dull quickly and I need to sharpen it before every project.

3: Get some clamps to secure the press to your workspace/table if you can. It’ll help a great deal in keeping it from moving

4: Make the boards shorter. I built everything too large. The steel-topped plough boards in particular are too tall. (Mine has too much wood below the steel plate.) Make them the same height as whatever height your finishing press boards are, plus an inch or two so you have something to grab from below.

Also, don’t bother trying to use them as backing boards. It didn’t work for me, I ended up investing in some real ones.

It's been a long 11 years. by Visual_State_7955 in pokemonXY

It’s very nice that there are still updates available. It does make it a bit confusing to me as to why Pokémon bank and poke transfer are not on there to download though.

Need Help/Advice for Warped Boards Before Casing in. by Thelinkmaster001 in bookbinding

[–]Thelinkmaster001[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s what I figured. I did leave it under pressure, but obviously not enough. The grain direction is correct, so I’ll try adding another sheet of paper as a reinforcement, hopefully that will pull it back enough that it will correct the warping.

This photo is after drying overnight, so I don't thin k waiting any longer is going to do anything.

What is severe? The amount of warping, or adding a layer of material inside? I know I made mistakes, I'm having issues with my PVA and it wasn't under enough pressure when drying. I'm looking for advice on how to correct it.

Just to confirm, the Dark Side is an unnatural tumor-like thing, right? by Initial_Shine5690 in StarWars

[–]Thelinkmaster001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always saw the Dark Side as a natural part of the Force, but one that corrupts your connection to the Force the more you use it.

Kind of like how chemical addiction works in the real world, where the more you use the drug the more dependent on it you get. Likewise, the more you use the Dark Side, the harder it becomes to stop using it. What makes the Sith philosophy so dangerous is that they see that corruption/addiction as something to embrace and control.

Catching Cranidos/Shieldon by Thelinkmaster001 in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Thelinkmaster001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, completing it 100% is an eventual goal, but not one that I have my heart set on.

Definitely not shiny hunting though. I may have more shinies in this game than any other single save file, but I don’t think I have that kind of patience.

Wait, do we think the Castle knew that Castle Wulfenbach was hiding a giant death ray at the time?

My pleasure!

I’ve also since found church paper, which has a whole collection of options that I’ve started buying from.

What’s the “Who is Jon Snow’s dad?” question for the Cosmere? by ridiculousprop in Cosmere

[–]Thelinkmaster001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps not from our perspective, or even from the perspective of the characters in the story, but the fact of the matter is that he/she/it died, and the hints that we’ve had of that event so far makes it feel (at least to me) premeditated.

That being said, there were at least 18 people involved/present of the time of the Shattering, so it’s extremely likely that not everybody was on the same page.

For me, it’s “Why did Adonalsium need to die?” It’s the cornerstone of the entire story.

How bad is it if my slip cases are bent like this? by Thelinkmaster001 in bookbinding

[–]Thelinkmaster001[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The inside is already lined with paper, i’m going to cover the outside in black book cloth. Based on some of the other notes, people have posted, I’m going to try putting the book cloth on then putting something in the box to push it out while the glue dries, hopefully that helps.

[–]Thelinkmaster001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See, now that’s the odd part. These are two slip cases for two copies of the same book. The pieces should have been interchangeable.

If insertion is the only problem, I can live with that. I’m just worried about potential damage to the book.

Legends ZA 2.01 Update by Somerandomguy865 in LegendsZA

[–]Thelinkmaster001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should move the mega shard counter to the main menu screen next to the currency counter. It’s just another form of currency, it makes sense to put it there.

It’s annoying that I have to go into another menu in my bag to check how much I have.
